You have a couple of points. Houchen's aerodrome and steel works embarrassments are fully up to the standard of Robin Hood Energy.

It's a weird, weird world. Before you know it politicians from the hard right of the Conservatives will defect to Labour and be welcomed with open arms by Starmer...
...oh, hang on a second.
I had resigned myself that to oust our incumbent Tory MP I would reluctantly need to vote Labour at the general election. However, their stance on Brexit, Gaza, and now this amongst other things has cast great doubt that I could reconcile a vote for a Labour candidate against my conscience.

What is the Lib Dem position on Brexit, Gaza etc.?  I would suggest voting Scot Nat.

Lib-Dem stance on Gaza is for a bilateral ceasefire. Their stance on Brexit is to improve relationships with the EU to get us into a position where we could rejoin the EU. Centre-left Lib-Dem is preferable to centre-right Labour. In the unlikely event we have a Scottish Nationalist candidate what is their policy on devolved power and ultimately independence for Wessex? |

First of all it will ask "where is Wessex"? |

Wessex was once an independent kingdom. Alfred the Great was (arguably) their most famous king.

Robin Hood robbed the rich to help the poor… Robin Hood Energy helped the poor. Apparently Corbin was a customer. Nottingham City Council were the people who put the money up to start it. They didn't rob the rich so they went bust and it cost Nottingham City Counsel about £30M (I may be wrong in the details but that is roughly what happened.).
