AI is weird. Great, yet weird. This is meant to represent how UK businesses are more at threat from egotistical, ideologically wonky, UK politicians... rather than temporary disruptions to the Global Energy market. The headlines are full of disruptions tied to geopolitics, including the disarmament of Iran, but businesses should be far more focused on domestic energy policy. While commodity prices bounce, the structural charges imposed by net-zero policies, expensive nuclear

After weaning itself off Russian fuel, the UK is exposed to global energy markets due to decisions by the energy secretary, Ed Miliband The war in the Middle East will continue to harm the UK’s energy sector It may be taking place thousands of miles away but Britain’s economy remains in the firing line, threatened by soaring bills and rampant inflation. In a similar vein to the Ukraine conflict, Donald Trump’s unfolding war with Iran has exposed the vulnerabilities of the UK’

When there’s a major conflict in the world, UK energy prices can move even if the fighting is nowhere near Wolverhampton. That’s because energy is traded globally, and prices jump on fear and risk  as much as on actual shortages. Think of it like this: if insurers think a storm might hit, the premium goes up before  the storm arrives. Energy markets behave the same way.

That’s the National Energy System Operator’s estimate of what it will cost to upgrade the National Grid by 2030 to accommodate the political drive toward rapid decarbonisation and Net Zero. You didn’t vote for that number. You don’t see it on your bill. But you are being lined up to pay for it. The big Net Zero promise vs the small print Ed Miliband built a political brand on the promise that decarbonisi

Norway is profiting from North Sea Oil, whilst Ed Milliband has shut it down for the UK and buys imported oil. Apologies to my Norwegian friends for the AI-generated image... it was actually the least offensive one it produced. When ideology trumps reality, businesses pay the price. For the first time since 1964, no new oil wells have been drilled in UK waters. Not because the North Sea has run dry. Not because technology has failed. But because policy has. While the UK gove

Businesses up and down the country are, quite literally, paying the price for pompous politician's personal passion projects via extortionately high standing charges. Ever wonder why your energy bills keep climbing? It is because of people like Ed Miliband and their "Net Zero" zealotry. The cost of maintaining the grid has soared as a percentage of our bill... from 5% 15 years ago, to more than 20% and rising. The energy from solar and wind is bountiful, but unpredictable, th
