The spectacle of some v well-paid right-wing commentators squealing about a raised minimum wage is quite something.
Does anyone think the commentators really have best interests of young 18-24yr old workers at heart?
It’s one of the good policies from Labour.
If only fuel duty was raised too.

You’re about to hear many in the commentariat claim a permitting bill, the SPEED Act, will help all energy sources.
The thing folks like Matt Yglesias don’t mention is that SPEED would fail to do anything for renewables without addressing Trump’s bottleneck.
That’s not “sources say” — it is fact.

my favourite line from Jude Ellis:
"it becomes difficult, if not impossible, to believe almost anything that Defendants represent."

“The truth is that the sentence wasn’t inaccurate – it was removed because of legal fears. And that’s exactly the concern my lecture raises: when institutions start censoring themselves out of fear of those in power.”

So a single LNG ship has a set amount of energy (it contains X watt hours of energy)
However a ship of PV cells has the capacity to produce energy over time (X watts per hour). Thus you would need to define how long the pv panels would take to produce the same watt hours as the LNG ship.
