Markets Forced

In keeping with their usual attitude of gratuitous defiance towards the master race, the beastly Euro-wogs are plotting to impose a windfall tax upon the profits of energy companies, even in the very teeth of the National Johnsonette's pronunciamento that this is a Very Bad Thing. The worst idlers in the world have not even been informally ordered to cap their own consumption over the winter; by contrast, the Strasbrussels Politburo seeks to impose legally binding targets for reduction. As cowardly as it is brutish, the dictatorship has sought to avoid the term windfall tax because of political sensitivities, referring instead to a "solidarity contribution" from the plucky fossil-fuel Walesas to the ruthless Jaruzelskian maw of the average Euro-wog warmth consumer. Thanks to Global Britain's new-found independence, of course, the mainland's sovereign subjects will suffer no such oppression, and are at liberty to spend the whole winter coughing with mirth.
