The whole energy crisis thing

Cats don’t use much power Mills.

Poor bantzzz

There must surely be some way to connect a cat to a turbine and capture the energy produced by dangling a live mouse just in front of it.

Cats, the ultimate idiots.

Smallman1 My cat has a functioning roof, so careful what you say…

Smallman1 Any cat has 10x the amount of test you do smallballs

Smallman1

Your cat’s on the property ladder Vin?

Fair play!

vinnyt77

Smallman1 No. It has a permanent wooden structure in the garden that it uses to piss and shit in. Fully waterproof roof though 👍️

Thermostat down another couple of degrees, stick a jumper on luv I’m going to the pub

But in all seriousness I’m already a tight git when it comes to energy use. It’s now got to ensuring that all curtains are lined, checking for door / window seal draughts and actually not complaining when my wife puts a hot water bottle in the bed

Just read that most people will incur a cost of 18 quid for just 4 hours heating this winter…. Putin you utter cunt

Along_the_Wire

Jules72 Putin you utter cunt

He’s just a part of the problem. The wholesale profiteering is where the real cuntage is.

Jules72

Along_the_Wire See page 26 here…. The massive increase is almost entirely driven by market prices (Putin shutting off supply)

https://researchbriefings.files.parliament.uk/documents/CBP-9491/CBP-9491.pdf

Don’t get me wrong - the government needs to subsidise prices now… too many people going to be in too deep shit.

Along_the_Wire

Jules72 where are BP and Exxon’s ridiculous profits coming from?

Along_the_Wire

Jules72 wholesale cost is what BP, Exxon et al are charging, right?

Jules72

Along_the_Wire it’s true they’re benefiting from higher prices on markets… so there’s a strong case for a windfall tax

Old-Dutch

The thing is, there’s absolutely no shortage of gas - we are all able to be supplied without Russia - this is all down to ruthless profiteering and taking advantage of the situation.

Basically, if you want gas you pay our price - get it cheaper elsewhere if you can.

Profiteering cunts being profiteering cunts and taking advantage of the situation - nothing more

Jules72

Along_the_Wire yeah… point I was making a while back though is that retail energy providers aren’t the problem .. the original source of the problem is Putin, but it’s true that BP etc are benefiting

Old-Dutch

Exactly, the energy firms we have supply us are a convenient middle man for the big boys. They take all the flak when they aren’t the problem - but they should be doing a lot more to call it a out for what it is

Analysts predicting wholesale gas prices could shoot up by as much as 50% as Russia delays reopening Nord Stream 1 pipeline.

Cankles-McJeggings

Getting to the point where it’s actually a cheaper option having a nuclear war. Just nuke the cunts. See what happens.

Dubman

It’s probably all part Putin’s plan. Cut the gas pipeline to Europe which would drive up the cost causing people into fuel poverty as payback for supporting Ukraine.

Jules72

Dubman yeah he is hoping support wavers… hope we don’t cave in, but is the man on the street going to be calling for that when he can’t afford his heating bills?
