    As I said your growth is in response to a very low growth rate last year.
    Thanks for the graph.
    But it has nothing to do with covid or your "success."..
    the highest death toll in Europe.
    France doesn't depend on gas. We have enough nuclear energy and are selling some of it.
    But thanks for your concern.
    Are you off to the food bank now? Or the warm banks so you don't have to pay to keep warm?
    Saving costs on not using the oven or making a cup of tea?

    Your nuclear energy is shut down.
    You have none spare to sell.

    Half of all your plants are shut down for repair.
    Epic mismanagement.
    You have the very highest energy prices in the entire world.
    And you can't even blame Russia for that. You did it to yourselves.

    Most of Germany's already closed. Along with most of their coal plants.
    Epic fail.

    Shot yourselves in the foot.

    You import your energy from us now.
    Well done.
    You are now our bitches where you used to be Russia's. I guess it's an improvement of sorts.

    And this has to do with Truss resigning how?
    Or are you just going for a random rant?
    We're fine. No energy emergency here.
    Intact I don't think there is a French word for "warm bank".
    Now perhaps you might like to remember what this thread is about instead of hijacking it for your own purposes.

    Truss may be gone but the legacy of her short tenure unfortunately remains.
    All forecasts indicate a continued rise in interest rates and the need to find around 60 billion pounds of cuts to government expenditure.
    There aren't many if any places where this could happen. The NHS needs thousands of workers who will need paying , teachers are threatening strike action due to lack of funds and staff, social services are struggling and social care is still almost non existent.
    At least Boris has a sense of investment in govt support through his levelling up, as loosely as it ever was defined, Truss cut herself off from any sense of fiscal responsibility, ignored the OBR, and tried to live out some discredited textbook ideology.
    It was the one advocated by Brexiteers.
    And it was another unicorn that doesn't exist.
    Ans unfortunately the whole country will have to suffer for it. For 44 days of bonkers.
