Had Boris not done we would see less venues survive as we are now seeing. As society we need to decide whether social venues are just businesses that need to fail if not viable or an important part of the social fabric. If it's the first, the stuff them they can pay the same as everyone else. If they serve a wider cultural purpose then they will need assistance as they do in other countries. I'm not moaning, I'm pleased he is starting to fix the mess Reeves has created. Long way to go yet.

Increase business rates by 30% alongside other taxes rises. Give them a rebate of 20% and watch the plebs show their gratitude. You are right though. Could have just reversed the rates decision taken by Reeves.

Pescara, flights are cheap too

Buy ohl and get Leicester free deal?

Maintenance issue, the same reason you don't typically see trees there.

One of the biggest jumps in prices last year was due to the weather rather than events in Russia funnily enough. July's renewable generation was as rubbish as it was in January which is very unusual. I did learn a new word today, dunkelflaute. It means dark doldrums and is used to describe a weather period of dark combined with stillness.

Some days too much, some days not enough. We had lots of still dull days last year where had very low levels of both solar and wind. Correct on solar farms on agricultural land, they should absolutely be banned. In France, it is illegal to build a car park without having shade over the vehicles with solar panels on them. Once every car park in the country has solar, then we could consider looking at the fields that feed us.

Whilst a disaster signing he at least has a decent attitude. If we are stuck with him then I won't complain and I actually quite like him. Once the fee is agreed and the player has signed what he cost us is slightly irrelevant. I really want Faes gone though.....

Its needed for power generation. As you already know, countries that heavily rely on renewables need power stations that can be turned on and off easily. At present these are coal and gas. This is why (again as you know) that China is building more new coal fired power stations than anywhere else in the world as they are needed to combat downtime in green energy generation from wind and solar. The alternative is that we as a society accept in the short to medium term that we will be without power if the weather isn't favourable.

Good Tory policies in action... Scrapping the bus fare cap was always daft, particularly as they capped train fares instead. Buses help more lower income people than trains ever will.

Hopefully we still have the chance to be Nottinghams feeder city then we may get some of the hand me downs our bigger (but actually smaller) and better (where better means lower GDP and more poverty) don't want.

Good point. We could offer £100m and hope it goes away? We could also hope that no other clubs that may or may not be effected wouldn't fancy a free £100m.

If they are going to court, then its cash they want, pity and sentiment won't make a spot of difference. If it counts as a football debt, then it would need to be satisfied in accordance with the league requirements.

Every case is wildly different. Ours is unique in every sense.

Both can be true...
