@Frencheconomics@andyroocraig Strip the politics out of it. If your energy costs are 12x your US competitors’, you find a cheaper supply or you stop being competitive. Ratcliffe isn’t being difficult — he’s applying basic business sense and trying to keep industrial production and jobs in the UK.
@RmSalih What this simply shows that you don’t have to like or listen to John Cleese, however as soon as you try and cancel for opinion ( especially humorous ) then in this country you have lost. Maybe try and take the oiss out of yourselves, it’s quite cathartic !
@5Pillarsuk I was a kid when John Cleese and Monty Python were taking the piss out of religion, the UK is great at it and laughing at themselves. You might find it helps to do the same.
@HughWoozencroft Do you honestly think he needs more ?? Look at how many people he pays and the tax he has, plus how much his companies, actually still pay. I would prefer him and another industry leaders to be running the country
@implausibleblog@iqbalmohamedMP Important context: the £150m Grangemouth package isn’t £150m handed to Ratcliffe.
£50m is a conditional grant. £75m is a government-guaranteed commercial loan INEOS must repay, with security registered over Grangemouth assets.
A repayable secured loan isn’t a handout.
@StanCollymore Go 2-0 up, then no idea how to frustrate the opposition.
Should have just strangled that game and given Brighton some respect.
It’s as if United think they can just play open footy with no consequences.
@markgoldbridge The fact you are even talking about a 15 year old shows how pathetic social media has become. Wish we could go back to newspaper reports and match of the day than see this amateur drivel !!
@dutweets @du_help I’ve been pursued for over a bill that was paid in July 2025, with proof repeatedly provided to du. Today I received yet another “Final Notice” threatening legal action, despite a formal dispute already being submitted. Please contact me urgently to resolve
@RBairner Opta stats is 17 successful though balls over 312 premier league games. Cut through what he says, basically says is a top drawer central midfielder and would be better Anderson freed up and he sits in. Makes total sense, Anderson far more creative .
