The F15 has a range of 3400miles, according to Wikipedia. It can refuel in mid air, taking it range past the 5000 or do needed to make it back for another refuel. The can stay in the air for up to 15, hours, and travel cruise at .9 Mach.

Will the US pay for the bases when Iran destroys them?

Don’t forget the statement that using the UK bases to bombard Iran is in self defense! And that is also why there is no parliament discussion or vote

Take the water companies back into public ownership.

They will take the increase in bills and pass a chunk of it to their investors instead of using it for its intended purpose

Or cars: technically, everything they do now are trucks. A legal distinction, but one that matters, as trucks are allowed to be less safe and pollute a lot more.

The Pinto is their top priority.

Despite this U-turn the plan is still there, neither the scheme nor the giant price tag (1.8 billions pounds!) have gone away entirely. The government wants to introduce Digital IDs, and while they might not be mandatory at first, they could create a digital surveillance infrastructure that could fundamentally change how we live.

Once this system is in place, ‘mission creep’ is inevitable. We will be forced to use digital ID more and more in our daily lives. It will be used for profiling and surveillance, tracking our interactions with the State and more.

As the Germans say " the police is blind on the right eye"

Not to mention that road degradation grows exponentially with the weight.

For instance, the damage caused by a 1 tom car is the equivalent of 160,000 cycle trips! And a 2 ton car will damage the road 16 times more than a 1 ton car.

Ah! Nice one… But no, it will be Oracle. They have paid Tony Blair about £250 in the last few to spew their nonsense, and Larry Ellison has spoken loudly about well behaved everyone will be once they can monitor everything we do.

Sounds like a police state paradise.

The one they dropped years ago?

The problem with my nuclear when mixed with renewables is that they take too long to turn on and off (think 12-24h), so they are not great complement solar and wind.

They are also very expensive, and take years to build, and decades to recoup the investment. Renewables are a lot cheaper, and can be built straight away, making their investments a lot less risky. They are also evolving faster than nuclear, snd becoming cheaper.

They are, S of today the cheaper power source in most of planet. It is expected that in a couple of years they won’t just be the cheapest, but they will be so cheap it will make economic sense to dismantle other powers plants and build solar/wind+ battery than to keep gas running.
