    I’m deciding if I feel sorry for the UK or not, what does BP stand for again?

    Bonus question, how many governments were overthrown to ensure BP could profit from other nation’s resources?

      We may well have locked in meaningful change, but that doesn’t mean the fight is over: the bulk of fossil fuels are still in the ground.

    Mhmh yeah and government wants to spend as little as possible on the ALBs that look after flooding. When the ones who moan about the ‘overpaid civil service blob’ find themselves in the aftermath of a flooding event that could have been prevented, I won’t say ‘serves you right’ out loud but the thought will definitely cross my mind.
