The EU has reversed its plans to impose immediate price caps on Russian gas amid political divisions and concerns over security of supply

At stake is the future of the bloc’s $17 trillion economy, which the energy crisis threatens to push into recession as companies and consumers reel from high power and gas bills. That’s natural enough: Europe is simply not ready for sharp movements

While Berlin has been scrambling to reorganize its energy mix amid gas cuts, and there has been disagreement in the governing coalition over the lifespan of nuclear power plants, Chancellor Scholz ordered Germany's three remaining nuclear plants to remain in operation until April to fend off a possible energy crunch

At this rate, it won't be long before the Nord Stream 2 is launched!

The new reality is that protests are happening across the whole Europe. Protesters are voicing their discontent with their government’s policy, wages, soaring inflation and expensive blind support for Ukraine

"It is therefore no wonder that people who are angry and feel cheated, replaced one after another the governments that introduced the anti-Russian sanctions," Hungarian PM Orban said in reference to the devastating loss suffered by the Italian left during the recent elections. But this could all be just the beginning!

German social researcher Kocyba expects a new, violent wave of protests as the continent turns colder, claiming that right-wing extremists are already heating up the mood, but the left also wants to call citizens to street demonstrations. "If the crisis lasts longer, it cannot be ruled out that terrorist groups will form, as was the case during the anti-refugee protests," he says

These warnings might come as a surprise for those not paying attention to the social disintegration of Western Europe in the past decade. But Europe has seen a series of escalating social crises in the past ten years, from major cost-of-living increases, to mass immigration, to the pandemic lockdowns. A winter without energy amid inept actions of EU leaders might prove to be the straw that breaks the camel’s back

Truss's aides lied about the deaths of her distant relatives to keep her off TV

This was revealed by Kirsty Buchanan, Truss' adviser when she was justice minister, on the Whitehall Recources podcast

According to her, when she had to dodge meetings with journalists, Liz would make up stories about someone who had allegedly died - "aunts, cousins and things"

Here's another trick Truss used: you could say the UK economy had died and not come forward either🤷‍♂️
