Candle-Powered Internets
A combination of the closure of old power stations and an abject failure from successive governments to build new power stations means that the UK is running out of power. The spare capacity in the system is going to drop from 14% to 2%. The whole thing is pathetic and basically a failure of democracy. No politician is going to push through a long term power plan that may end up benefiting the other party when it comes to fruition. The curse of not being able to think beyong the next election.
Anyway, the key point is, how are UK Rats going to stay online? Either we all go and use Rum's solar panels or devise some kind of candle powered internets.

I'm wondering if I can harness Sir Huxley Cat to a treadmill.

Re: Candle-Powered Internets
Is that direct rage or alternating rage?

While watching some of the acts at Butlins Glastonbury, I thought to myself "christ it's like the mid 70's out there". I guess retro is big even amongst the politicians.

I, for one, look forward to having to throw a pensioner on the fire to keep warm.
