You can sense the palpable despair of most of the broadsheet punditry as it dawns on them that Liz Truss is in all likelihood going to be Prime Minister and will probably go on to smash Keir Starmer in the general election.
Have now seen 3 separate uses of “Genny Lec” and I’d just like to make it clear we are not doing this, this is a line in the FUCKING sand people, a line we do NOT cross
NEW CHART: How British electricity supplies are shifting decisively away from fossil fuels

One of the biggest cheers in Rishi Sunak's speech was his pledge to deliver an "A1 upgrade" (with scrapped HS2 funds).
Is this a new announcement?

In fact, the story of the A1 upgrade under successive Conservative Prime Ministers truly is remarkable..🧵
Sunak promised to upgrade the A1, A2, A5 and M6.

1) Already announced
2) Were delayed by up to five years only six months ago by none other than....
*Rishi Sunak*
Last great Bradford station plan lasted a month. I suspect we'll get a bit longer this time. But the outcome will most probably be the same. It doesn't go to London. It won't be funded.
