... um, they are in the parts of the country that have significant renewable energy industries.

So like Andrea Jenkyns, for example, or in Hull.

Um, and that is also where the moment they're in elected office, their position in relation to renewable energy starts to shift quite quickly because they've seen that it is creating jobs in their local constituencies.

And so having a hard line, like a kind of Trump-esque hard line whereby you wanna go up ripping up EV infrastructure or, you know, switch- switching off wind turbines.

if there's a if there's a a um you know uh an east anglian mayor of east anglia we've got one though haven't we

We had this very eccentric doctor on a fringe event explaining how COVID vaccines were probably responsible for illness in the royal family.
