Why is the UK struggling more than other countries?

Not entirely. The price of offshore wind energy is capped. That was part of the deal with the government when leases were granted. If the price exceeds the caps, that portion is refunded. -

A day of chaos brings Twitter closer to the brink

What does it mean that "twitter seems to be going along the same as it ever was"... ? Have you taken a look at its financial situation. Twitter gets 90% of its revenue from advertisers. They are fleeing. -

But foreign exchange only matters when you are trading it against other currencies. For most Americans, say, a 10% drop in the value of the dollar in respect to a basket of world currencies, doesn't mean a 10% drop in its purchasing power. But if that same American is holding bitcoin and it drops 10% in value, then it has also lost 10% of its purchasing power. -

At this rate there won't be a Twitter to come back to. And it's not like they can't go elsewhere, is it? -

US midterm elections: What's happened to economy under Biden?
placeholder replied to Scott's topic in World News
Clearly a plot by Dems.... GOP push for hand-counting paper ballots is latest effort to cast doubt on elections After more than a year of baselessly questioning the results of the 2020 election, some Republicans are casting doubt on how ballots are counted, part of a broader movement inspired by former President Donald Trump’s lies about election fraud that is undermining confidence in America’s vote. In at least three states – Utah, New Hampshire and Texas – Republicans have pushed for banning traditional ballot scanning machines in favor of hand-counting paper ballots, an antiquated process that experts fear could inject error into an election system where very little has been found. Critics also worry that the inevitable delay in results from hand counting would be an opportunity for those looking to sow doubt about the outcome of future contests. https://www.cnn.com/2022/01/10/politics/republicans-push-for-hand-counting-paper-ballots/index.html -
You know the truism lawyers cite that you shouldn't ask questions you don't know the answer to? High Tide Flooding 400 to 1,100% Increase The U.S. Southeast Atlantic and Gulf Coast regions saw an increase of over 400 to 1,100 percent, respectively, in high tide flooding days compared to the year 2000. Assessed over several decades, the national trend in high tide flooding frequency is accelerating, and is more than twice as likely now as it was in 2000. The rapid growth is in response to relative sea level rise, which is occurring along most U.S. coastlines. https://coast.noaa.gov/states/fast-facts/recurrent-tidal-flooding.html

Kari Lake: Interviewing the election denier who could be Arizona governor

"Democrats have denied elections just as much as the GOP." And your evidence is that Biden once agreed with some woman's comment? He didn't even raise the issue himself. Do you understand that a majority of GOP members of the House voted not to certify the 2020 election? What alternative universe do you live in? -

Twitter: Elon Musk blames 'activist groups' for earnings drop

Yes, definitely "genius". ‘Twitter Blue’ launch suspended as ‘verified’ account impersonators surge: report Elon Musk’s troubled social media site reportedly suspended the launch of its $8-per-month “Twitter Blue” plan in order to crack down on a surge in verified “troll” accounts impersonating famous figures — including Jesus Christ — and companies. In an internal announcement, Twitter said it is attempting to block new subscriptions for the time being “to help address impersonation issues,” Platformer’s Zoe Schiffer reported. Additionally, Twitter re-added an “official” label for verified accounts belonging to advertisers — just days after Musk had nixed the tag. https://nypost.com/2022/11/11/twitter-blue-launch-suspended-as-verified-account-impersonators-surge-report/
