What the actual fuck….

Once the wings are cooked, season lightly and return to the air fryer/oven at 220°C for 6 minutes until very crisp.

Toss in half the sauce, cook for another 5 minutes, then finish with the remaining sauce.

Serve topped with spring onions and some thinly sliced red chilli.

For the sauce, melt the butter. Add garlic and ginger and cook gently for 2–3 minutes.

Add chilli and cook for another couple of minutes.

Stir in the lemon and lime zest and juice, honey and fish sauce. Simmer for 5 minutes.

Cut the wings into sections and discard the tips. Pat dry well.

Toss with baking powder and the potato starch or cornflour.

Cook in an air fryer at 180°C for 25 minutes (turn halfway), or bake in the oven at the same temperature.

Salt & pepper

The grift never ends. Most corrupt regime in history

This is a genuinely mindblowing combination. 1) Deliberately false information, 2) promoted in schools, 3) using public money, 4) in the service of private profits, 5) at the cost of our collapsing ecosystem.

Only recently discovered Queen of Oz with Catherine Tate.

Gutted it wasn’t given another series - I thought it was brilliant - silly, hilarious fun.

Any government that isn't right now accelerating plans to transition to 100% clean, renewable energy is either:

a. Incompetent
b. In the pockets of people who'd rather they didn't
c. a & b

It’s a great moment to remember that in the leadup to this popular uprising, the first major gut-punch was delivered by Budapest Pride. Poetic justice. 🇭🇺🏳️‍🌈

Ffs. 🤦🏻‍♂️

The victory of the opposition in Hungary yesterday, like the Polish election in 2023, is a victory for democracy, not just in Europe but around the world.

Half a billion euro for 10c off each litre of petrol and diesel for drivers and all the rest on private business. No grants to make evs or hybrid cars affordable for people, no increase in grants for home insulation to save on heating oil, no reduction in the price of home heating oil.

The Guardian is reporting that it’s all over in Hungary!

Tisza is coming close to a 2/3 majority.

Orbán has conceded.

This is very, very good news.

Slow clap to everyone who scolded the left for not supporting them

Can the government cut carbon tax, and what would happen if it did? Carbon tax is back on the agenda. Here’s what any changes would mean in the short and long term.

Yes this Government needs to do more to help in the cost of living crisis, but abolishing the Carbon Tax, the one tax that is ring fenced to help the most vulnerable, would be the wrong thing to do.
