Energy Price Cap Goes Up Again ? and No, it?s Not Because of the Price of Gas Thu Aug 28, 2025 07:00 | Paul Homewood
UK energy costs are set to rise again. Labour ministers claim it's due to the price of gas, but that's nonsense, says Paul Homewood: gas prices are flat in real terms. It's all green subsidies.

Jump To Comment: 1 2 3 4"Paraguay and Bolivia share a border"
Might I humbly suggest you take a closer look at a decent map to understand WHERE Paraguay and Bolivia share a border, what the nature of that area is, how remote from cities or transportation routes in EITHER country, etc.
You might be right of course, but of all the possible ways the US might invade Bolivia somehow I think trying to slog through the Gran Chaco rather ulikely.
The Marine Corps don't walk to war.
I would agree that Paraguay is not a good staging point for the upcoming US invasion of Bolivia. In fact, the invasion will probably involve liberating eastern Bolivia's gas reserves from the grips of the indigenous majority in Bolivia's western highlands. This is what lots of Bolivia's Santa Cruz and Tarija Department inhabitants want themselves. The US should first invade Brazil, taking control of its vast southwestern breadbasket. From there, it could enlist Brazilian slaves (Brazil has never really stopped being a slave state) to annex the eastern lowlands of Bolivia, making it into a vast, gas-rich US protectorate called Mato Gringo Do Oeste. This would also be a prime location for the next US terrorism detainee and interrogation center. The other option would be for the US to level the playing field in Bolivia, literally. With several dozen nuclear bombs, US forces could flatten Bolivia's Altiplano region to match the topography of the eastern lowlands. Finally, people would see eye to eye.
No, the USA are not planning to invade Bolivia.
Yes, the USA [pentagon] [5 sided thing on the potamac longest corridors in the world] [they go round in penatgrams] plans invasions of everywhere. Its their job.
