It never went away, we've been subsiding other country's services via foreign (sometimes foreign state) ownership for forty odd years.

Plus we failed to make any energy supply arrangements when we left the EU.

So the days of cheap surplus renewable energy coming our way are currently at an end.

Hopefully, the market (can't believe I'm saying that) will sort itself out. The thing with renewable energy is, you can't store it (in any great quantities yet) and you can't generate it exactly when the market needs it. It's very much in the renewable energy company's interest to sell it when they can, or they get nothing for it.

I wonder which way he voted?

It's long been known that British workers don't want to do large numbers of jobs. Getting rid of EU workers was never going to solve employment issues in this country.

Asking for a friend

Do we measure sovereignty in queues, empty shelves or imperial measures then?

I am visiting the UK at the moment. Managed to fill up with diesel today. Now got enough to get me back home to France on Friday, no shortages of anything there. :D
