- Comment on UK ministers met fossil fuel lobbyists 500 times in first year of power, analysis shows 3 days ago:
The likes of Just Stop Oil want us to simply turn off the taps in the North Sea, creating the same chaos for working people that they do on our roads. It’s contemptible.
- Kier Starmer, 2023
The government is likely to approve new drilling in the Rosebank oil field.

- Comment on King Charles hopes nature film will 'inspire' viewers 6 days ago:
He has. He was an early adopter of ethanol fuel, forcing Aston Martin to convert his DB6 to E85 and roping his father in as well. His farms have been organic since the mid 80s, and he’s been a frontman for sustainability since 1970

- Comment on King's coat of arms to feature on new UK passports 1 week ago:
Britain is pants at consular assistance. Always the last european nation to organise evacuation flights, if at all, in hurricane season. At least in the before times you could go on EU flights.

Obesity is the biggest health crisis in Britain right now. This is a necessary step.

Slave labour, chief architect Albert Speer Jr, it was reminiscent.

Because 64% of adults are overweight or obese, with 26% being in the heavier classification. It’s costing the NHS £11 billion per year, and 13% of hospital admissions in 2023 were due to being overweight.

Not at all unenforcable. Just needs an RFID on the cup.
- Comment on Brits in disbelief as new refillable drinks ban implemented across UK 1 week ago:
A bill to phase out smoking is working through the parliamentary process at the moment. It will introduce a progressive ban so those aged 15 when it passes will never legally smoke, licencing for the sale of tobacco and vape products, and the power to ban smoking near hospitals and schools.

- Comment on Defence ministry spends millions on private schools to avoid Welsh 1 week ago:
Plaid Cymru’s education spokesperson Cefin Campbell MS said “not only is this a complete waste of money, it is an insult to our language”.
"I cannot think of any valid reason to be spending such money every year, on preventing young people living in Wales from having the opportunity to learn the Welsh language.
Does pretending to be a complete idiot really win the votes though?

- Comment on Labour Party members just defected to Your Party en masse 2 weeks ago:
Israeli F35s can’t be refuelled by British tankers. They use a completely different system. If the Canary had fact-checked, they’d have realised the British tankers circling Doha were highly unlikely to be party to the Israeli attack on Qatar, as they were in fact participating in a joint exercise with… erm, Qatar.
It’s a pity, because they cover some stuff others don’t.
- Comment on Labour Party members just defected to Your Party en masse 2 weeks ago:
Jumping in here, they’re fond of distorting the facts to make better outrage bait. They still take every opportunity to claim Palestine Action were targeting planes that were refuelling Israeli jets, the problem with that being the British refuelling system is incompatible with the one Israel uses.
- Comment on Record breaker Starmer is the 'most unpopular PM since polling began' 2 weeks ago:
The trains were nationalised by the Tory government in 2020, and they also abolished franchising later that year. They also began to set up Great British Railways in 2021.
Steel has not been nationalised. The government has taken over the funding of redundancy payments and retraining for the shut down private sector Tata furnaces in Port Talbot, and has taken steps to force the owners of British Steel to keep the idle furnaces in Scunthorpe burning.
There has also been no nationalisation in the energy sector. Great British Energy is set up as a way to subsidise projects created and run by the private sector and other public bodies. It will not generate, distribute or retail energy.

She’s using a camera on her cell phone to boast about her ice cream on a newsgroup. Waxing upper lips has gone out of fashion but she’s self-conscious about it.

- Comment on Keir Starmer to announce plans for digital ID scheme 3 weeks ago:
Yeah but it took voting in a Tory government to do it. A high price indeed.

Starmer has an absolute majority.
- Comment on Lauren Southern accuses Tommy Robinson of lying to protect alleged 'rapist' Andrew Tate 3 weeks ago:
A more apt analogy would be an invite-only shop with a buzzer on the door, and the shopkeeper buzzing in the shoplifter having been told that this is Angus Strange, notorious thief, and he has brought with him a fast car and has no method of payment on his person other than a lead pipe.
