Destroyed OSR as a reliable break crop in the U.K. while welcoming in imports grown using chemicals they banned here on the flimsiest of evidence for populist reasons. If that isn’t duplicitous then I don’t know what is. At the next election when I go into the polling station I’ll remember this.

The new house is significantly rural and losing power is a real possibility. During Beast for the east, they didn't have any for a week. Got an oil boiler and borehole, young children and looking to ensure we don't have enormously long periods without water, light and heat. Can we put in a wall...

We are awaiting a building warrant for a new house with air source pump but also a small wood-burning stove. However the mad green zealots ( lots of them not in the Green Party) do not want heating from carbon sources in new builds. There may be exemptions in rural properties with higher risk of...
