ELECTRIC CARS

Shell announce plans for 150000 charging points by 2025. Presumably BP and other companies will instal similar numbers. Add to these public charging points those who have, or will, install charging points at home it would seem likely that there will be enough infrastructure in place.

LABOUR SHORTAGES

For too long businesses have been suppressing wages. Unions have been hampered by legislation. Now we have shortages of labour in many sectors, especially in low paid physically hard jobs such as in meat packing factories and pickers on farms.

WEATHER

It would be a lovely day today if it was not for the clouds and was warmer. Definitely autumnal, but maybe some September sunshine awaits. Met Office suggests rain next weekend but end of September could be more settled and warmer.

COVID

Schools and universities going back – and not a plan in sight! The governments scientific advisors have warned of fishers week becoming a series of super spreader events. I feel desperately sorry for students at the moment, their exams have been a farce, university life is meant to be life enhancing and fun, not boring and dull.

HURRICANE IDA

Is on track to hit New Orleans on the 16th anniversary of Hurricane Katrina on Sunday. A storm surge of 3m is expected in many areas and winds in excess of 130kph. Oil production has been ceased in many rigs in the Gulf of Mexico. And another depression developing in mid-Atlantic whilst Hurricane Nora hits the eastern Pacific region with high winds and rainfall near Puerto Vallarta and Baja California Peninsula.

COVID

Guided by the science! Or not? SAGE has stated that ministers should be planning for a huge rise in Covid cases as schools reopen. The governments plan seems to delegate responsibility to schools without giving them any advice or powers. So no masks or bubbles, no advice on contingency plans for an outbreak other than – schools may contact public health authorities if certain thresholds are met. Does this mean that Williamson is on some extended safari somewhere secret and must not be disturbed? Maybe like Raab’s £40.000 holiday.
