power down: The UK appears to be reinforcing the Indian argument against itself as the demand for fossil fuels is increasing across the world to meet the growing energy demand. Britain itself is headed for an energy crisis at the start of winter, which will coincide with the start of the COP26 climate summit in early November. Some green energy firms have shut down, and Britain now faces the prospect of retaining power over the winter, relying only on the fuels it wants India to leave.
Missing point: Some of the current debate on the Indianization of the legal system away from the British model is missing a casual point: the British legal system as it stands is a long way from what is recognized in India as ‘British heritage’. Chief Justice of India N.V. Raman is certainly right to lift the need to move away from the old British model as he has now. In support of his arguments, he could have invoked the British example, as it is now, and not the one that was imposed for colonial rule in India.
CoWIN debate loses heat: The COVID certification issue with the UK appears to have now been put on hold. The UK High Commission issued a statement suggesting that talks are on to arrive at a speedy reciprocal agreement. Perhaps this week was not expected to happen so soon. The UK has bought time, but whatever diplomatic assurances have been given, health officials in the UK are blocking the government from any initial recognition. A subtext of the dispute between India and the UK is the dispute between the Foreign Office and the health departments in the UK.
‘Crunch’ time for Britain: The current wave of scarcity raises the potential for long-term problems, but also long-term prospects. One of the areas of shortage is the lack of enough agricultural workers to hit the UK. Given the lack of lorries to bring goods from Europe, this means the UK is having a tough time both importing and developing. Italy had long ago turned to Punjab to revive milk and cheese production. Now Britain may need to do something similar.
No more Tests for Moeen Ali: Moeen Ali’s retirement is a bit of a surprise. For starters, it is above average for cricketers. For another, he has shown so much promise that everyone was waiting for it to blossom during the upcoming tour of Australia. Moeen Ali has been one for impressive bursts and then stops. Not just enough wickets to take, nor enough runs with any consistency. His career has been a bit of a click and then a fall when everyone was waiting for a few more clicks. Although he has still played 64 Tests.
