@DNLPlantEquip Hope he is all well but please make sure they test him for TB before releasing him back into the countryside. But a badger about in daylight is not a good sign.

@TyrelWallace Nice to know who their sponsors are.

@ArturNadol7566 @Telegraph Good - keep taxing the stupid who don't understand (nor care about) the law.

@MaisonGladys In Scotland, since 2015, it's a legal requirement that all new homes must have energy efficient measures ~80% have PV - like our new TaylorWimpey home in Ayrshire.

Rest of the UK requires similar legislation. Not perfect as more panels & batteries needed - but it is a start.

@dailybritainonx Solar & wind IS cheap energy - electricity they produce is artificially inflated by linking their unit price to those generated by fossil fuels.

@Fenianmoder Just.... Ireland & UK

@LordBalthazar85 Yes a complex equation.
Just highlighting that the supermarkets' business model is based on tax payers subsidising wages. For me that is morally questionable.

[Ian Tosh (🐦🌳🐠🔔)🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇪🇺🌍✨ @CloudBase777]

If we had a true free market economy, the supermarkets wouldn't have the billions in profit as they would have to pay their employees a livable wage without the UK tax payers having to make up the difference universal credit.

@herrvonari76181 They would lose 50% of their workforce overnight.

@DPAutomation Tax payers subsidising business is the very definition of socialism.
Capitalism lets businesses fail if they can't survive without help.

@faceforadio1 So they don't have a valid business model without tax payers subsidising their employees.

@rushicrypto Confirmed:

Usable output of the Sun reaching the Earth's surface ~1000W/m2 which equates to ~1.27e17W constantly irradiating the Earth.

Current world power consumption ~1TW

Available solar power is ~12,700x more than we use.

Note:
Watt (power) = energy/second

@piersmorgan No, it will just push the yobs in the right wing media to intensify their efforts in ousting a democratically elected government that they don't like.
