The sheer joy of this thread, and its sub-discussions, is why we're all here really……

@ClemCowton @defossardf What a ridiculous argument - endless LNG tankers from Qatar and the USA benefits ‘the state�� how? Note: the USA has only become an energy exporter since they started fracking. The UK is a joke nation.

@ClemCowton @defossardf Let’s imagine a nationally-owned company contracts for the gas to be extracted. A nationalised energy company not a dodgy one which carries on billing you months after you’ve left them because they consistently overcharged. 🐙

@RajanBarot24 @GayGordon84 Transubstantiation by faith and faith alone! It’s like the Inquisition. Meanwhile in the real world mammals cannot change sex and any man arguing that women have no sex-based rights is simply misogynistic, as down through the ages. Lawyers arguing such should be struck off.

@TonyDowson5 Definitely the latter. As early as 1952 ordinary people were criticising the modernist slums the architects were ‘designing’ for them but the Establishment refused to listen and still does today.

The Commons is on short time as there’s so little happening in it. So why haven’t you done this yet? Easy to have ‘reformed planning’ in a Bill by now Danny…
Planning reform could instigate the one of biggest redistributions of wealth this country has ever known. Billions, possibly trillions, of £s of transfers from mega-rich land owners to all of us in the form of lower rents and mortgages.

@KulganofCrydee But that would upset the endless procession of LNG tankers from Qatar and the USA* I can see out of the office window waiting day and night on the tides to go into Southampton Water. And Ed Millivolts. *of course the USA imported energy for decades until they started fracking.

@boswelltoday @tribunaltweets It’s fine. This is an era-defining case and people need to know what’s going on.
