Reaching net zero by 2050 is often framed as a cost burden.
The UK Climate Change Committee’s latest analysis suggests the opposite.
The real risk is fossil fuel dependency.
The country has neglected a lot of key practical skills in recent years and failed to train people.
It hasn't helped that these sorts of jobs, though ultra useful, have had their status reduced (a disaster).
Also, budgets are tight.
Both Nigel Farage and Kemi Badenoch did call for the UK to join the US war on Iran.
Both have u-turned significantly.
Now both are denying they called for the UK to join the US war on Iran.
Those hereditaries were the most democratic component there.
In any case, it hastens the end of the appointees.
If Iran has put out any mines in the Hormuz Strait, and we have no reports of them doing so, we want them removed, IMMEDIATELY! If for any reason mines were placed, and they are not removed forthwith, the Military consequences to Iran will be at a level never seen before. If, on the other hand, they remove what may have been placed, it will be a giant step in the right direction! President DONALD J. TRUMP
mr president i don't think this is going to be effective
Administratively, that is much more difficult (and leaky). When visas are widely abused and the issue is systemic, the solutions need to be systemic to match.
The country at large would like the immigration numbers brought down. I don't see how that can be achieved without setting an arbitrary threshold that would be unfair to someone.
If there is another way, I'd be interested to hear it.
Any tightening of entry rules will lead to situations like this. There will always be edge cases that seem deeply unfair (particularly for married couples who fall outside thresholds).
So there is no carve-out that the government could apply that wouldn't be unfair to some worthy person.

Judging by the back-&-forth in the comments to this article, from both sides of what should be perhaps the world's most financially sophisticated readership (ft subscribers), there is a long way to go before a system of balanced trade ever gets considered, let alone created.
The domestic influence & aura of the US constitution was a conjuring trick.
In reality it was window-dressing for the same thing that underpins all political settlements, globally & historically: an intuitive public acceptance of common standards which lasts as long as there is a common wellbeing.
Complete cop-out by Westminster.

Like the case of sugar in processed food, it is beyond me why governments don't act to control this.
Any social media that tweaks their algorithms is a publisher and should be regulated accordingly, just like national broadcasting and advertising.

Data centres have all the economic impact of warehousing with only a fraction on the employment.
Simply housing data does not constitute a productive industry, the sort that develops products and services.

That would sell in Europe. I guess there will be a rebadged version.

Spring forward... Fall back... whatever.

Regardless if energy, China dominating manufacturing (far in excess of what their GDP would suggest) is not globally sustainable as manufacturing is the only proven route to prosperity.
A new system of trade is required that ensures balanced trade outside of short term fluctuations.
China's supply chain dominance is a warning, no one is slowing down. They are diversifying.
China dominating manufacturing means the India, Turkey, Ethiopia, U.S., Jordan, Brazil should accelerate domestic energy build-out, not question the transition.
Going up any tower-building in Birmingham during the summer and looking around confirms this; Birmingham is basically a forest. Most of the single and double-storey buildings will be obscured by the tree canopy.

I wonder if a drone has hit Dubai Marina. Or whether it was just
debris from a successful interception.
If only loads of Dubai based accounts, including Isabel Oakeshott's, could tell me.
