Somewhere that is not an anti-EU propaganda source?

aaaaaaand the bulk of that electricity is produced by gas powered stations, and where does the gas come from? They are a net energy importer, always have been, always will be.
"The negotiations thus seem to have morphed into a chicken game: two cars race toward each other and the one to veer first loses the contest. Both cars being of roughly the same size, there are only losers if no one veers. Yet what is perhaps not entirely understood in the UK is that this is not a standard chicken game with two more or less similar cars, but a situation where one party drives a large truck and the other a motorbike. That collision will not have symmetric effects, therefore. The EU is simply banking on the Johnson government seeing that too, coming to its senses, and accepting the EU’s not entirely unreasonable demands."

North sea oil fields dont use mains grid leccy

And it worked, Barnier has just caved in and agreed to intensify talks, I suspect that behind the scenes, Merkel has given Macron a sound kick in the *******s.

Michael Gove has praised a “constructive move” by the EU in an about-turn after its chief negotiator agreed to Downing Street’s conditions for the resumption of Brexit talks in pursuit of a deal.
