New Cold War and even Colder Winter?
Discussion
Getting another paraffin tank delivered next week and filling up with fuel.
40% of our electricity generating fuel comes from Russia and the predictions are that even a new cold war can't result in "restrictions" of supply as Russia needs the income from fuel sales.
Well who says so? MillibandMillibandMilliband
China and India are swallowing raw materials and fuel wholesale these days so I'm sure they'd appreciate some extra supplies.
My gravity oil fed AGA gives a significant degree of independence from the utilities companies so long as I have paraffin and I have a fairly hefty portable jenny for absolutely essential short term use. A good selection of paraffin cooking stoves and lamps eveloving from the need to cope with frequent power cuts in a rural area puts me in a reasonably safe position so I wonder if the time has come to "market" some of my spares?
My paranoia knows no bounds
P.S. I've just come back from a food shopping expedition and I can't believe how much prices have increased in the last week

If russia started selling to china instead of the uk they wouldnt lose any income, rather they would see demand increase, therefore they would have more money coming in.
And if they cut off supply to the west, they could cripple us, and emerge as a greater power.
If true, why have they not done this already?

With the reactor being so far out beyond the back axle it was very prone to fission-tailing when applying the power....

Because nobody would trade with such a country, and they'd long be crippled themselves before anyone else was.And if they cut off supply to the west, they could cripple us, and emerge as a greater power.

Not sure what side of the aargument you're taking there? They will be more powerful or they won't and know it?And if they cut off supply to the west, they could cripple us, and emerge as a greater power.
