US & Israel attack Iran

[grunge]

It will be put on the market by the oil companies that "we" (The Tories) sold it to. "We" can't do shit other than grant new licences and make some extra tax money on it, if we're lucky, but that's it. As per the answer above. It won't make a jot of difference.

The way to be more independent from fluctuations in global oil prices is to invest in more renewables and fuel/energy efficiency.

Look it up. The questions your asking me, ask them to your search engine of choice...

We (the current gov) can change the laws the tories put in place or re nationalise some areas if the will is there.

Looks like Iran is winning to me, but what do I know.

Wait until the yanks put boots on the ground, and then they really will be winning.

Only a complete lunatic would attempt some sort of incursion using Marines and Paratroopers. Logistically everything would have to be helicoptered in and out, a potential nightmare.

It's got military disaster written all over it, if they are stupid enough to attempt anything with a few thousand lightly armed troops.

Don't worry, Trump only does excursions not incursions.

But it does feel like it's a mystery excursion where not even the driver knows where they're going.

It's a total disaster. Again.

 

[SWP's back]

In an ideal world, sure.

But we need that strait open and we don't want the refinery in Qatar to be attacked again.

So it's now a balancing act of preventing retaliation against our energy and ecomomic interests and not being dragged fully into this ridiculous war that should never have been started.

Fuck them off out of our bases and buy oil from Iran, like Spain.

 

[bluejon]

He's run out missiles hasnt he.

I also suspect he's had our owner on the phone warning that he will fucking end him if he doesn't pack it in.

 

[Trevor Morley's Tache]

Oh, look, another false flag attack...

The leader of the "free world", who's as thick as he is crass. How did it happen?

I still can't get my head around how someone who is certifiably insane has become the most powerful person on the planet.

gas and oil in the North Sea would typically take 3 to 10 years + to come on stream
Nuclear 10 to 15 years costs billions of pounds and we need the Chinese to build it
solar farms take 1 - 3 years to come on stream
on shore wind 4 - 11 years

Drilling in the North Sea would mean the existing companies or new entrants drilling it - we have no UK Govt owned entity to do this
It then needs to be refined on shore - we have no UK Govt owned entity to do this
Govt can sell licences for drilling - there is no royalty on amounts drilled but there is a 78% tax on profits. Therefore the licence holders have an interest in getting the most cash per barrel to profit - $150 per barrel will be taxed the same rate as $80 per barrel but will be more profitable for the company selling it. So it will be sold on the market and will make no difference to our supply at all. All this info is readily available - don't listen to the lies

If anything this should now push forward nuclear power and others, I’m sorry but if the NIMBYS can’t see we need this for the future thry can fuck off.

And sabotaged the toilets on the Gerald Ford?

That might be the one then mate I’m confused there’s that many of them

Axios: The White House and Pentagon are considering sending 10,000 more U.S. combat troops to the Middle East.

The decision is expected next week and comes as the administration weighs military options against Iran, including possible ground operations.

Exactly. Trump doesn't give a fuck as he won't be going, neither will his friends or family. He's also got zeeo military experience after getting daddy to help him dodge the draft for Vietnam..

Every company usually has somebody like him, talks a good job, a bullying bullshitter but is absolutely shit at doing anything themselves. He's just the figurehead, the mouthpieces,he's not really running anything,

If they do this they will be right where Iran wants them

US farmers need fertiliser for wheat. They don't need it for soybean. Next year, a wheat shortage.

There is plenty of bullshit in that country to go around

Those are the people who moan their kids can't get affordable housing and decent jobs so they can live near them and at the same time object to a new business park (jobs) and new housing near where they live because it might spoil a view
