Re: Climate Change.
It would seem that some targets are now achievableEnvironment ministers agreed on Friday (4 October) to “update” the EU’s current emission reduction pledge next year but fell short of saying by how much. Ten countries blocked attempts by the others to commit outright to an increase there and then. --EurActiv, 7 October 2019
Poland plans to prioritise curbing its reliance on Russian energy — and so continuing its dependence on coal — over signing up to the EU’s net zero emissions target, in a move that is set to put Warsaw on a collision course with Brussels over climate policy. Energy security is higher priority than EU emissions goals, says government official. --Financial Times, 2 October 2019

I agree with them. We still have plenty of coal - perhaps enough for decades if not centuries - under our feet, and the EU are setting their emission goals without any concrete evidence of global warming, despite what Greta the Gremlin keeps saying.

Yes. The government seems to have its priorities, and we don't feature in them!

Actually, I like curries, pasta, Bratwurst, frogs' legs, etc. The sort of things you can't get within 200 miles of where I live.
