There's always someone only too willing to talk down this great country of ours by, er, asking questions. Shame on you!

Or are they limiting supply, so increasing supply now for the fields to run out sooner?

Standard tory 'idea' isn't it.
We don't have enough gas. So...we will get more gas.
Someone probably thinks that's a solid week's work they've done there, and that the whole problem will now just go away.

It's not even that, IMO. It's opportunism, climate vandalism, playing to the usual suspects. No-one anywhere believes it will help.

my understanding is that 'conventional wisdom' was that country A would not launch a nuclear strike against country B (if country B also had nukes) because if they did, country B would have time and capability to launch a nuclear strike on them before it got wiped out. i think 'mutually assured destruction' was the phrase.
but if country B didn't have nukes, conventional wisdom was that country A could get an invasion force ready, and country B would not want to fight back because country A might press the button.
we didn't have a nuclear war in the 80s - whether that was because of this, i'm not qualified to say.
I don't think the second bit was ever stated or a doctrinal reality. No nation just let's themselves be invaded rather than defend because the invaders have nukes. See every war since 1945 for examples...
I think a clear and unequivicle no nuclear first strike policy is the best we can hope for from nuclear armed states at the moment.

dunno. it (not necessarily in the exact words i put down) seemed to be the general argument made whenever anyone advocated unilateral disarmament.
i'm not saying i agree entirely with it.

I’ve been wondering if Truss might go for something like this: a temporary nationalisation of some of the energy supplier companies, a covid style bailout for people and business for say 6 months and then calling a snap general election off the poll bounce.
As they say, watch this space…

Arguably they'd only be in a bunker due to the ability of the target to fire back. Without that, they could be getting on with life in Moscow or Beijing - or a city further east in Russia if Moscow is initially too close to the immediate contamination. But regardless, not for me to defend either way.

So everyone else is dead, but poor Vlad stuck in his bunker can't go to McDonaldskis for his breakfast muffins any more so he's the one who has really lost out.

Not really paid attention to it since the mp voting rounds finished. I think result is finally due in a few days though?

Actual deployment was more about the Russains, but those that sweating the detail were fighting the Japanese...even ended up needing materials they got off a U-boat the Germans were sending the Japanese...It was war, and pretty full on
