"The ESB car charging points now cost more than petrol...that's bonkers"
Minister of State Neale Richmond says charging an electric car cannot cost more than petrol.

Gouging is a national passtime in Ireland
ESB raises public charging prices by 15%-18%.
Second price hike since July. Blames wholesale energy costs.
Biggest public charging chain in Ireland.
Now more expensive to charge (per km) than petrol for normal, contactless, pay-as-you-go.

What was at stake
The 2026 midterm elections didn't just determine who controls Congress for the next two years—they also determine whether the United States, 250 years after its founding, remains a democracy, @anneapplebaum says. She explores what citizens and lawmakers can do next to strengthen the institutions and values that have been threatened in the Trump era.

😂🤣 Elle est excellente, celle-là !
Marine Le Pen annonce qu’elle est prête à aller en Ukraine. Zelensky la prend au mot et l’invite officiellement… Et soudain, Julien Odoul nous explique qu’elle n’a plus le temps ! 😂
On dirait que Marine a oublié de demander l’autorisation à papa Poutine ! 🤣
Pour faire de grandes déclarations depuis Paris, il y a du monde. Mais quand il s’agit d’aller regarder les Ukrainiens dans les yeux, l’agenda devient miraculeusement surchargé !

🔴 Zelensky invite Marine Le Pen à venir en Ukraine puisqu’elle l’a proposé, pour qu’elle rencontre le peuple Ukrainien, qu’elle voit ce que les gens pensent de Poutine.
Juliien Odoul vient de dire que « le temps présidentiel ne lui permettra pas d’y aller » #LCI

Social democracy is not communism.
It's capitalism with a conscience.
Europe, Canada, New Zealand, and many other countries have shown that you can have a capitalist economy while making sure people don't go bankrupt over medical bills, childbirth, or education.
That's not communism. That's a basic standard of human dignity.

Google is trying to use its monopoly power to force AI into our public schools.
No corporation should have the power to dictate how we teach our children.
Our public schools exist to serve students, not to grow the profit margins of Big Tech.

President Trump claimed that AI oligarchs could regulate themselves because they “love our country.”
Now, Google is threatening schools: if you stop your students from using AI, we will cut off your access to Google Search.
That’s not love. That’s extortion.
PAUSE AI NOW.

A WARNING TO DONALD TRUMP'S THUGS:
If you violate California’s laws, if you interfere with the vote, you will be prosecuted.

Accurate. Bulgaria now has unified govt w president and PM from the same party, seeking to satisfy the Trump-Kremlin axis. Yesterday, I said they won't dare act on Kremlin's behalf in Brussels, but I'll revise- they may well do Trump's anti-EU bidding! newsmax.com/world/globaltalk…

We have intel that Russia is preparing a new massive attack on our country – primarily targeting energy and logistics. The assumption is basically that tomorrow the world will be watching the American midterms, and what is happening here in Ukraine, along with our difficulties with air defense and Patriot missiles, will be overlooked.
We need signals from the world to Russia that will make them feel that terror is no good, that it will bring no gains, and that as long as this war continues, their oil will burn, and they will not be able to make money doing business with the world. We must not play games with Russia’s oil or gas revenues. We must put pressure on Russia in such a way that it has no alternative but to end this war. America can do this.
