Guardian report on Sky News interview with Kwasi Kwarteng https://www.theguardian.com/business/20 ... i-kwarteng says

...Kwarteng said he believed the lights would not go out this winter and said he would not give advice on the personal precautions people should take to save money on energy bills.

“Some people feel comfortable wrapped up in lots of different clothes, others wear relatively little – I think people should be sensible. I think people should do what they feel comfortable with,” he told Sky. “My job as an energy minister is not to tell people how many layers of clothing they should wear, that’s not really my job.”

If he can't bring himself to acknowledge that reducing consumption is a good way to help balance supply and demand - and that it is needed now, besides in the longer term - you wonder whether he is fit to have any ministerial office, let alone that one.
This sort of bone-headed, reality-denying dogmatism will sink us all. I suppose he'll swan off to an alpine retreat when all the luxury islands and seaside resorts (and cities like London) are under water.

Written with utmost sincerity.

I'd LOVE to hear what the governments firm, co-ordinated & precise plans are for a city lost underwater, especially that of London city estuary & all the associated areas, IF there was "some" flooding & loss of land in scale the "great British public" would not hold fast as demonstrated by hysteria over pumped fossil fuels.

How long would it take to empty & relocate the seed bank at Kew gardens? & how where are the displaced to go?

I feel that although this has had potential since the 1980's it's likely "stale old fudge" in terms of growth since any planning, emergency services resources (or feelings of duty) & the shrinkage of the armed forces (took a while to get some tankers on the road eh)!?

Not an area they can just say "market forces, sink or swim" (no punning)

It would doubtless be the biggest uk land mass relocation since WW2 evacuee's situation.
