Today marks holocaust memorial day where the nation remembers the awful atrocities committed by Adolph Hi**er and his extermination of the Jewish people.

We remember before Almighty God all those who were taken and those who suffer mentally as a result of this terrible atrocity.

We therefore commit ourselves in penitence and faith to always remember the terrible loss of life and to strive to remove Fear of difference and racial Hatred from our society forever.

We will always remember 🕯

The BBC reported that the UK has awarded contracts to build a record amount of offshore wind projects as part of its efforts to grow the country's clean electricity sources. The projects span England, Scotland and Wales, including what could be the world's largest offshore wind farm off the coast of Scotland in the North Sea.

But some analysts warn that despite the record haul of offshore wind, the government will still struggle to meet its 2030 "clean power" target.

The government argues that wind projects are cheaper than new gas power stations and will "bring down bills for good", but the Conservatives have previously accused climate targets of raising energy costs.

The largest successful project is Berwick Bank in the North Sea, which is the largest planned offshore wind farm worldwide.

The government says the projects will bring down bills but the Conservatives say it is locking in high wind prices.

Last weeks arctic blast of snow, sleet and hail pushed temperatures down to -12.5°C, the coldest this winter, driving a sharp surge in electricity demand and straining the GB power system.

Jake Thompson, GB Market Expert at Montel Analytics, said national electricity demand jumped as temperatures plunged with morning peak demand hitting 44GW and forecasts pointing to around 46GW at the evening peak.

Mr Thompson said the cold snap could last until yesterday, keeping demand high and prices elevated.

Analysts flag 2026 as a potential year of surplus across global energy markets. Energy markets are entering 2026 under a cloud of oversupply, with analysts warning that swelling oil and gas production could weigh heavily on prices.

According to the International Energy Agency, global oil supply may exceed demand by nearly 4 million barrels per day this year driven by rising output from the US, Canada and Brazil.

At the same time, liquefied natural gas markets are bracing for a sharp increase in export capacity, led by the US, potentially squeezing producer margins which could provide a floor to prices for consumers in Europe and Asia.
