#JohannesKepler was a brilliant #astronomer who studied the motion of #planets. Like everyone, he also had some strange ideas about the heavens, no doubt as a person in the middle ages would about the harmony of worlds and their purported relation to things like the #PlatonicSolids, which was of course bogus. He is probably best known for his famous three laws of #PlanetaryMotion which he reluctantly formulated when he had to abandon the idea that planets only orbit the #Sun in perfect #circles.

JIIIIIIIIFFFF!

Westminster scuppered the plans for a tidal lagoon in Swansea.
It makes much more sense as we are an island, to properly invest in our wind and waves.

I want my children and grandchildren to have a future without nuclear.

After all, with current world politics, and, we still no way of disposing of nuclear waste.

But....oh yes, I guess they thought of that. Perhaps Cardiff will take some of it!!! 😳😡 Fuming!

Over half a million new Covid cases in the last 7 days.

Over 14k Covid patients now in hospital.

Yet @10DowningStreet is still seriously scrapping free testing in 2 weeks time & radically scaling back surveillance.

This is sheer folly.

"Shell and BP had profits of more than £20,000,000,000 last year.

And now energy bills are rocketing by nearly £700 next month, up 54%.

There's an alternative: A windfall tax on oil companies with the energy sector brought into public ownership, run for our need not their greed."
