So that’s what the right wing will do if they get control of the Commission then?
I find it bizarre that the EU has no way to expel members.
Hmm, shall we look to history to see past efforts and the results of centralising power in Europe?
I really don’t get why we’d want to emulate any of the large federations. Russia? China? USA? Nope nope nope
A cell structure of independent states is inherently a better structure than a blob where you only have to get one bad leader for the whole thing to be fucked.
2·2 days agoYes, implementing a new agriculture policy obviously requires the future tense. We have to undo 50 years of perversely incentivised destructive practices.
The point is we can.
Abstract: Brexit repatriates agriculture policy and subsidies after over 40 years of determination by the European Commission. The paper starts by describing the baseline at Brexit, noting the relatively small economic contribution, the problems of competitiveness given the UK’s geology and geography, and the poor environmental outcomes. The scope for improvement is correspondingly large, and in particular through the impacts of the new agricultural policy based upon public money for public goods and for England, the Environmental Land Management Schemes. Larger and more long-term impacts will come through new trade agreements, through new technologies, including digitalization, robotics, and genetics, and through carbon farming and offsets. Finally, the paper sets out a framework for a future assessment of the impact of Brexit.

At war over what?

It only you had massive amounts of land available
Doubt it. With the amount of renewables coming on line they’ll be paying people to store it not charging more. We already have negative prices in the wholesale market
Octopus are the best. Over the summer they give free electric during windy days

Not American, guessing the spike and drop was due to vaccination?

Parents do parenting, more at 11
Phasing out manufacturing, not all cars, obviously
Is that the best you have got? The EU is winning the race to the bottom they screeched about during the ‘negotiations’, turns out we’d be in a worse place if we had agreed dynamic alignment
Pretty fucking ironic
May I present DragonFire, such a cool name and only £10 per shot. Pew pew

We have always been at war with Eurasia
Edit. smh when people don’t recognise an Orwell quote
Yep, you do need to have off road parking to have a home charger
There are more options coming though, like using lamppost chargers being rolled out

And most new builds have chargers these days
Subsidies have completely changed. The new agriculture policy is light years ahead of the EU’s, which has weakened green farming due to landowner pressure
Do they mean a mix tape?
