[Ursula von der Leyen @vonderleyen]

I had a good call with @POTUS on strengthening our joint efforts to increase economic pressure on Russia through additional measures.

The Commission will soon present its 19th package of sanctions, targeting crypto, banks, and energy.

Russia’s war economy, sustained by revenues from fossil fuels, is financing the bloodshed in Ukraine.

To put an end to it, the Commission will propose speeding up the phase-out of Russian fossil imports.

How do gold and silver respond differently in trade wars?

As precious metals, both gold and silver prices can rise sharply due to the economic uncertainty triggered by trade wars, as highlighted in recent days, @frankdwatson writes in @KinesisMonetary.

Today is a good day to share myth 16 from my electric vehicle mythbusting compendium:

Despite "rumours and anecdotes" to the contrary, most EV batteries last the lifetime of the car, meaning they never need replacing

Just spoke with Nick on @BBCr4today about Labour's £28 billion green investment pledge, which seems arbitrary and kinda getting in the way. The biggest economic opportunity we have is achieving Energy Independence through harnessing our own clean energy sources - I would focus on that.

£50 billion a year leaves our economy and goes to fossil fuel states and dictators. We could restore and reinvest that money in our own economy. We can make and price all the energy we need right here, that’s a proper investment - maybe the word green is getting in the way.

A bit rough around the edges in v. busy first full week back at school/work, but while bandwagon's rolling, here's a little musical parody setting the #PostOfficeScandal & #MrBatesVsThePostOffice to a @BonnieTOfficial 🎶classic. We're calling it: "They Should Be Cleared, Though!"

@CarbonReporter @Nasdaq Yep, worse than useless, as this kind of content actually adds to the confusion. It just highlights the need for more informed reporting.
