This is the kind of positive fallout I have been expecting from Russia’s European war.

Liz Truss is using Trump’s playbook. Up in heaven Maggie Thatcher may be smiling.

Brexit FTW.

If this works, it could lead to further exits from the EU.

Yep, been saying the same. Sounds like the Brits owe Putin a BIG THANK YOU.

Well this is pretty good and unexpected. I guess reality is a stubborn thing. Businesses are on the brink of bankruptcy from energy costs so l guess worrying about a one degree temperature increase in a hundred years can wait

A couple years. I have no idea how much or little they know the geology of their gas fields, and the UK has no experienced frack crews, rig suppliers, sand/chemicals suppliers, etc...

but with top-level support, big money will flow in, and they will learn soon enough
