What's your sense of the political climate in the UK and how you navigate that as an investor in multi-billion pound offshore wind projects?

I think change is probably the one constant in politics, and we see that within the current government, and we'll see that in the build up to the, the next general election.

But we know we're a number of years away from that.

I think what we're doing as an industry goes way beyond politics, and whether that's what we're doing in the UK or we see it across the globe, what we're offering is something that is going to be essential for people going forward, which is to decarbonize, to electrify, and bring down costs for people, and I think that is going to cover way beyond the politics of the day.

But equally, I think we need to make sure we're engaging.

When you s-deal with the members of public, they see their bills going up.

We need to make sure we're understanding, we're explaining what this is going to mean to them for the future, but we also need to make sure we're taking sensible decisions and we're not introducing unnecessary expenditure.

He's, he did sort of dampen down the expectations a little bit by saying, you know, "Price is our number one criteria, and do not expect a doubling of the offshore wind budget like we had in AR7." What's your sort of snap reaction to his remarks?
