I wasn't paying attention, why did Britain run out of gas?

* Calm summer - less wind power, and less oil and gas reserves for winter
* Dry summer - less hydro power, climate-issues generally affect everyone and drive up demand while driving down supply
* Brexit - less labor imported for transporting fuel around
* Ageing workforce
* Government recently closed a tax loophole on self-incorporation, which also forced a bunch of truckers into early retirement or other careers

House Reed in GoT live in a swamp, but they have a cool floating castle that can change location to hide from invaders. Their lord is Howland Reed so it's Howl's Moving Castle.

If Britain tried to do the same the castle construction would be outsourced to a third party for £50 billion and would promptly sink due to not being tested in swamp-like conditions.

Government inquiry rules that sinking below the water still counts as moving. Project delivered to spec, bonuses for everyone

0.000% of Communism has been built. Evil child-murdering billionaires still rule the world with a shit-eating grin. All he has managed to do is make himself *sad*. It has, however, made him into a very, very smart boy with something like a university degree in Truth. Instead of building Communism, he now builds a precise model of this grotesque, duplicitous world.
Ahh, Keith... or some say, Kier...

it's a bit weird because like for years the writing was on the wall that NI was going to end up the only habitable region in the union but I couldn't actually work up the motivation to even think about moving there and i'm in an even worse place now than I was so i'm going down with this ship.

I'd put money on them doing just that. Some of them are at least canny enough to realise that their continued wealth relies on people at the bottom having enough money to afford poo poo, that their business chums would see most of that extra cash flow to them in increased spending and that higher pay generally improves productivity. Then you have the 'Blue Wall' MPs who want a headline policy to cling to come the next election and can point to this as a literal example of 'levelling up - raising the bottom up not cutting the top down like those envious Marxist'. It can be spun as a Brexit Bonus and proof that we're entering the sunlit uplands and the end of wage repression. If that poll is remotely accurate it's a highly popular policy and even the most ghoulish Tories will see it as a brilliant stick to beat Starmer's Labour with and keep hammering the "out of touch London lawyer who just wants to keep you down" narrative.

Frankly Labour and Starmer deserve it, just for displaying such a complete lack of political nous, let alone any sort of principles.
