@heliotropezzz333 I thought Corbyn was a bit of a fantasist myself the City won't give any government any wiggle room. They know that Brexit is an economic car crash so anyone promising growth is talking to a political audience not reality. Labour can reverse some of the worst damage but they will be tied into what they can borrow for which is why Starmer was making the GBEnergy pitch. We have loads of excellent locations in the UK and UK offshore to supply all our own wind and tidal as well as a portion of Europe's and plenty of inventive people who can make a dint in the grid battery development world.
