Not usually one for posting much but why not. On a work trip to Denmark and currently in Aarhus for a few nights, wow! What a city, out for a walk and a few refreshments on a random Tuesday. What has impressed me most though is how welcoming the people are, I'll certainly be back!

Musk bankrolled Trump.

Now he wants to bank role Farrage.

This isn't freedom. This is the mega wealthy corrupting politics for their own personal gain.

It might just be my negative outlook but i see SNP loosing a number of council seats and I feel a change in the direction of Scotland. Am I reading it wrong or is there a shift in the force?

England uses more electricity than it produces, yet manages to export 5.1 TWh to Europe.

Scotland produces more electricity than it uses and transfers 19TWh to England.

This 'export' appears as income to England, but they are re-selling electricity from Scotland!
