The Conservative Party

You’re out by a factor of 1000.

Wouldn’t surprise me. Probably why I’ve never been allowed to trade energy! Haha

Anyway it’s still a sizeable amount left and say we have what 20-30 years to get it out you can see the longer term thinking as to why the government would shy away from imposing a windfall tax and what to retain that reputation of being an easy place to make profit from gas/oil extraction.
 
In english please
Starting with 'lobby' - he is speaking directly to journalists. The lobby is the daily informal of camera press briefing. And then he is dishing some dirt re the Huwawei decision and dodgy conflicts of interest. Doing this in public just to piss of no10 and make people sweat.
 
We left the EU two years ago and it's a fact that May, Johnson and Gove made those comments.

Here's a few more:
"Fuel bills will be lower for everyone."

"The NHS will be stronger, class sizes smaller, and taxes lower."

"We’ll have more money to spend on our priorities, wages will be higher and fuel bills will be lower.

"Leaving the EU is a great opportunity for us to take back control of our borders, our economy and our democracy."


It's all a bit of a sick joke isn't it. The pandemic hasn't helped but if they hadn't wasted tens of billions of pounds of our money on mismanaging the pandemic response and not doing even basic checks when dishing out loans to fraudulent companies that have run off with the money, there might have been a bit more scope to help people with their fuel bills.
Waste of time trying to persuade Tories that Tories don't lie.
 
Let's be fair, we've had the greatest economic shock in history within that time period due to COVID so only a stupid person would believe that things wouldn't have to change drastically from what came before.

Do people really think that had we been in the EU then we'd be doing any better? Polish inflation is currently 8%, Germany it's 5% and Spain it's 6%. The world's energy market is not run by the EU, nor do we even get most of our energy from any country in the EU, it's irrelevant.

Yeah the leave lot probably told a few porkies but very few people still have their watches set to June 2016, are we still not able to get over it? Just a reminder, we left 2 years ago.
40 years of lies about the EU saw us leave. You can't expect 6 more years of lies to go unchecked.
