Andy's News

Bin Energy Cap

The country is in crisis. Inflation fuelling strikes, the reluctance of government to pay people a fair wage, the lack of action to combat climate change, and I am sure you can name more.

Meanwhile the would-be successors continue to make impossible promises, and confirm they are not fit to hold the highest elected office. The opposition remain invisible, they are correct in painting the government as zombies, yet themselves offer little in the way of solutions.
