‘ The Express has a piece today entitled 'Ed Miliband’s latest mad move just cost UK £112bn – and YOUR taxes will plug the gap'.

'Ed Miliband would be a menace at the best of times. Today, he's a national threat.'

The mad move referred to is the find of the huge Gainsborough Trough gas field in Lincolnshire.

'Accountants Deloitte estimates it could add a staggering £112billion to GDP.

It would also deliver around £30billion in desperately needed tax revenues and create tens of thousands of jobs.'

'Miliband plans to leave it untouched while plastering the countryside with pylons and turbines and solar panels.

This isn’t just economically reckless.

It’s ideological madness that will deepen Britain’s energy crisis and force higher taxes on all of us.'

Taxes, and increased consumer bills.

'Deloitte says the UK’s carbon emissions would be 218million tonnes lower if we exploited Gainsborough rather then relying on imported gas.'

Elaborate chaps?

'LNEnergy is the manager and owner of a 20% interest in LNEnergy S.R.L. ("LNEnergy SRL"), the Italian company which has applied for the Colle Santo gas field concession (with a 90% interest), and has an option to acquire the remaining 80% interest in LNEnergy SRL on or before 1 February 2025 (the "Option"), with an exercise price of US$11 million.'

Was that option taken?

@snaffleman, many are holding for WN not the pair of sphincters!

The failure of the Rathlin drill and lack of urgency to proceed before this liebour shower of muck got into power is bewildering!

So the two rectums this week, skiing in the alps or sunning it up in the Caribbean or out in SE Asia?

‘ France delivered its first shipment of Mirage 2000 fighter jets to Ukraine to help Kyiv defend itself from Russia in the ongoing war, Ukrainian Defence Minister Sebastien Lecornu said.

Ukrainian Defence Minister Rustem Umerov said the Netherlands delivered United States-made F-16 fighter jets to Ukraine. These, along with the French Mirage jets, will soon begin carrying out combat missions, he said.’

This is of interest, who is going to fly these planes are there ready trained pilots in place?

So back to what I was mentioning about establishing air cover to protect ground forces.

It’s like a football team being five nil up with 80 mins left to play and the losing team has a second player sent off, it’s over! There may be minutes left to play but the outcome is clearly evident.

‘ Either way I have wasted enough of my time conversing with someone who is stupid, arrogant or both.’

I’m guessing you had the vaccine as well?

Check back to my posts from 2018, WN has always been a fracking proposition, the residents are right.

Fracking is not allowed in the UK and I doubt it ever will.

As for all this green bllx, it is intelligence insulting.

Personally I would ban all gas central heating in the West Newton area so there is no pollution from fossil fuels in the area. I would also ban all ICE cars and fuel filling stations.

I would also ban any protesters right to use any form of fossil fuel for transport for the rest of their lives.

If that was a reality for them they would realise they are hypocrites, NIMBYs and domestic threats.

I’m losing faith.

Not in POW but in the market in general. Will never sell though, just holding for hope now.

I feel they have gotten out of their depth.

'Was it more exciting, hell yea.'

Oh crikey every time my 'land line rang off the table in my hall way' I'd get a stiffy and couldn't get ECR Minerals out of my mind!

'ECR Minerals - Delivering the Next Multi-Million Ounce Gold ...

ECR Minerals

https://ecrminerals.com

ECR Minerals PLC is a mineral exploration and development company focused on gold projects in Australia.'

They will deliver there are boots on the ground looking, this is high risk, the three amigos are giving it a go.

‘ Probably the most exciting time in ECR's history’

I beg to differ if you were here during the Craig Brown days. The phones were ringing off the walls and we were around 3p. Those were the optimistic glory days.

'THE WAR IS NOT OVER.

End of discussion!'

Do you want it to end or are you a war monger?

Who should be financing this war then if it continues?

Whose men do we use to fight this war?

Why should it continue?

The general consensus in a lot of geopolitical analyst circles is it is over what more can be done?

If Ukraine applies to join NATO and is accepted, I shudder to think of the outcome, it is the flat land entry point into Russia. The Russians will push all the way to the Dniepr river and onto Odessa and into Moldova to the South landlocking the rest.

It's over, good luck in raising an army of the trained requirements with the necessary air cover to push the Russians back East and financing it all.

Now do you see how absurd it is or shall we start creating mythical figures to fight this was, call it a war of the imaginations? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ghost_of_Kyiv

Maybe you can go over there yourself and contribute.

I can't hold back now you have shown where you intellect in geopolitics is, now go and get a Sky news update.

Let them fight for it and off

'Please feel free of back up your statement with whichever news channel or newspaper article you choose, only I couldn't find one that said that.'

I will back up nothing from the mainstream media as its not correct.

What we have is facts, early in the war when ex army vets (gulf war, Afghanistan) who went over there did interviews with telegram channels, they stated it was something they never faced before because they did not have superiority through air cover. Basically you were marching to your death, it was obvious from that statement early on which way it was going to go. Did we get a rush of ex vets and mercenaries going there, I don't know?

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cwy7gp341j0o

So we were then treated to Telegram channels showing all the equipment we sent over ending up being destroyed and in a metal graveyard not mentioning all the money siphoned off for other purposes. Also a lot of weapons and artillery ending up on other continents sold on the black market. Possibly equipment caught by Russian forces and sold for their war profit booty - who knows.

We then had secretary Blinken saying the fighting age for Ukrainians should be lowered to 18, so evidently running out of men.

Now we have the Americans flip flopping on sending arms there.

Not forgetting the fact the US tax payer has been virtually funding everything over there, wages, military etc etc for a good while.

As for David Lamy our Foreign Secretary with Putin and Trump derangement syndrome, he can become a mercenary get a gun and go to the front line himself. The cost to the UK tax payer is the number one reason we should not be involved in the conflict.

As for the front line there are military buffs who post stuff up in Telegram which is of great interest showing how the operations work and which neighbourhoods are being cleared out.

Id say its pretty much over, or I ask where do we get the men to fight this conflict from? I am not prepared to lose a single member of the UK armed forces for this purpose, treat your men and women with respect and ask them to risk their lives for our Realm only.

I'm sure there is a band stand in Knutsford you can imagine the fight between the pair spilling over into the park and the band start playing this song,

Sorry I'm just wetting myself here, too funny!

So our Geologist Nicole moves on and we now have a oil and gas specialist for the hydrogen story.

Does this mean the Uranium story is a moose pasture?

What of the copper story progress seems slow and the Gold up in the Pilbara?

Lord Ericht states,

'In his judgement, Lord Ericht said a more detailed assessment of the fields' environmental impact was required, taking into account the effect on the climate of burning any fossil fuels extracted.'

This has to be the dumbest statement ever because how much of the oil may get used in the plastic industry or in road tarmac or other applications.

He is assuming all of it will be burnt in an internal combustion engine, this makes his judgment unsafe based on his assumption!
