This study predicts UK energy spending to halve by 2050, as part of our ‘rush’ to net zero….:) Five years ago I flagged this incredible fact in my book Manifesto - we spend £50 billion a year to bring oil and gas into our country - just to burn it. Good to see it in this study.

Ann Widdecombe was there, despite having noisily renounced the Church of England over 20 years ago because the former wasn't sufficiently ossified and exclusive any more.
But she's also a grotesque attention-seeking hypocrite, so of course she turned up for this charade.

Stephen Yaxley Lennon Tommy Robinson is holding a carol service today billed as “Britain belongs to the British People.”
He wants to create “a muscular Christianity…separate from the Church.”
Meanwhile the Far Right’s next target is to infiltrate the Anglican Church.
