  1. >However, the Department for Transport confirmed the ban did not cover the origin of cargo, including oil and gas that may ultimately have been bought from Russian state-owned entities.

    I don’t think we buy a huge amount of Russian gas in the UK, but eg Germany are something like 60% supplied by Russia. They had to make that exemption in the sanctions otherwise they would, quite literally, not be able to keep the lights on.

  2. Can we not just unload it, bolster our supply, and refuse to pay for it?

    I mean, “confiscate” obviously.

    Could help out with our fucking outrageous energy bills right now.
