  • The whole energy crisis thing

It’s Flares sat alone in his bedsit living off his £2 a month royalties for having a filler track on Communicate that I really feel for in these tough times.

Some poor misguided halfwits will still be absolving Putin of blame whilst freezing in their bedsits, eating beans over the winter. It’s the fucking Tories!

    wholesale gas prices are dropping, or were at the end of the week. Germany has got more reserves than thought. Still about 5x normal for december delivery though

      benson they dropped a bit last week but even then were nine times higher than the historical average. Was before Russia turned off supply

          alistair Dropped 30% in 5 days and I would assume the NordStream 1 shutdown was factored in.

              benson it’s suspension was only reported in the FT yesterday so it wasn’t “factored in”. Let’s see what happens to prices this week

                  alistair yeah risk is gas prices go lot higher again… by the way Putin completely cut off gas on Friday because the G7 implemented a price cap on Russian oil. Hard to fathom the reasoning for doing this when I would have thought the G7 wasn’t importing much oil from Russia in the first place… The West has probably shot itself in the foot unfortunately

                    benson don’t think markets were expecting gas flows to drop to zero, and certainly not this soon

                      Morty-C-137 Any cat has 10x the amount of test you do smallballs

                      When was the last time a cat ledged the bants?

                      Case closed.

                        We’re a wealthy country, we only get 4% of our gas from Russia, all the political cunts have shares in the oil / gas / energy companies. The whole thing is a con.

                          Amps BP pays a nice dividend, its open to retail also.

                          The scam is the gas for sure, but local oil firms are quick to up their prices yet very slow to drop them, here current it’s £520 for 500 litres, when Brent is slightly just above pre war levels. I agree this is fk all to do with Russia at this point, 50% renewable energy in some parts of the UK and Ireland yet x5 electricity prices.

                          So many small things you can do at home to save energy, but if you have a big family certainly worth looking into solar panels, you can recoup around £300 a year on what you don’t use that goes back in the grid, you also get free hot water so no need to use the boiler. 3 or 4 years at this rate will have them paid off.

                            I like that reality was like “yo what if the Running Man was like boring?”
