In the wotsit, that’s where we’d be. Mind you, I expect you would be rolling in it, so pleased with yourself that no rich people were left in the country, but wondering why public services and pension schemes had totally collapsed. It wouldn’t have been your fault, of course. Somebody will have made you do it…

jfman and I rarely see eye to eye, but wacking on £130+ billion to our national debt at the moment when the cost of borrowing is going up is lunacy.
Taxing the operators more, and charging on the actual cost of generation are a couple of things that could help short term.
Long term, scrapping net zero for something a bit more sensible.
Building more nuclear, fracking, tidal - take control of our national energy policy.
