the question is, where there power cuts, the grid is not a sink to pour lots of power into if there is no power used. It has always been a balancing act to match power generated to power used with, in the past, coal fired power stations kept on line, gas and oil shut down first, as they are easier to ramp power up and down and gas turbines used to generate quick boosts of power, as they could be run up and down quickly although more expensive. with modern methods of power generation, things must still be the same, most cost effective and hardest to shut down would stay on line whilst less cost effective and easier to shut down go off line first. After denationisation of the power generation and distribution things are probably worse as now costs are set by the various companies who own the power generation companies.

Using BBC iPlayer: Even if you only watch on-demand content on BBC iPlayer, you need a TV Licence. and I think it is illegal to use one of those tv boxes that gets copyright material for free. so are these people not using a tv at all or is there some other thing to watch.

If I remember correctly, when the Baht was 90 to the pound, it was because the government at the time floated the Baht on the market. This seems to mean that the Baht is not allowed to find its own level and is artificially set by the government/banks or what ever. The government said for weeks they would not devalue the Baht and excused the drop in value by saying they had allowed it to find its own value.

defining sex has nothing to do with perceived genders. nobody is trying to stop people who perceive their gender to be different from their sex from having rights, but those rights do not give them the right to compete against people of the opposite sex or to use bathrooms used by the opposite sex. their gender is in their head not in mine.
