About fucking time. It's ridiculous that Ireland, a small island with next to no coal or oil and limited hard to reach natural gas is more energy secure if a war breaks out than the world's fourth biggest economy.

Just reading that during Bidens visit russia decided to test an icbm as a show of strength, but it failed miserably and malfunctioned.

One of those “Satan” missiles they’ve been banging on about.

To be fair to Russia, fairy liquid bottles are probably tricky to get hold of at the moment due to sanctions.

You can make a similar point for the U.K. too. We’ve all been too relaxed about energy supply. In our case it’s contributing to economic decline (by paying inflation busting prices) whereas Germany’s recent dependence on Russia may have boosted the Ruskies war ambitions.

The Germans might achieve a competitive advantage from fuel independence over time and in the meantime boost their economy through production of energy independent capacity.

Taking Es while sitting your exam may have had an adverse effect on your results

I’d suggest the adverse effects might have been longer lasting/irreversible?

Every country should be doing everything they can to achieve energy independence. There's literally nothing to lose. A scenario like today's? You're insulated from the effects as you can rely on your own resources. Peaceful stable times and cheaper energy available abroad? Buy it in and either sell your own for profit or stockpile your own against times like today. The pipelines aren't a bad idea but reliance on them (especially with a bunch of scummy corpse-robbing duplicitous cunts like Russia involved in the equation) is a very bad idea.

Numerous complaints have been made against a Russian commander,who apparently spends all day,every day,walking round,taking anything valuable from dead Russian soldiers.
