Bonkers move on France's energy tax. From electricity being taxed 1€/MWh during the crisis (7€ less than gas) to 42€/MWh (22€ MORE than gas). That's before VAT and network charges. France, championing its decarbonised energy and #electrification yet again 🤡 ⚡🔌💡

A graph from Les Echos showing the zig zag of the French "accise" on electricity with a red line graph. A thick blue line has been showing the comparatively stable and low accise on gas. The labels are in French.

I had not realised I was such a precursor. I'm guessing the influx from Brazil was way bigger than I expected #Bluesky

A packed house for an exchange of views between DG ENER’s Ditte Juul Jørgensen and EP’s ITRE committee. Budget vote was just before. I’ve never seen such a packed committee room, nearly didn’t get a seat #EUsky 🔌💡

A bright circular committee room.
In the foreground, the backs of a crowd of seated people. In the centre, a barely visible stage with a blue background. Either side two large screens show the speaker.

Fidesz MEPs continue the tradition of resigning in entertaining ways. This doesn't quite beat "tried escaping police by climbing down a gutter naked" rumours but still crazy #EUsky

Screenshot of text from Politico playbook:

HUNGARIAN MEP RESIGNS: Fidesz MEP Balázs Győrffy resigned on Friday as an MEP after “a drunken argument with a lady, which, to my great regret, escalated to violence,” he said in a Facebook post. “Although I regretfully have no memory of what happened, what I did was unacceptable,” he added.

AND FINALLY…

Very jealous of the US's ability to put so much money on the table for home electrification 🔌💡 Art by Alaina Coppa

A watercolour titled "Potential Savings from Electrification". The watercolour represents a house with text showing the tax credits available from electrification in each room (rooftop solar, heat pump in the basement, EV in the garage, etc.)

The Left dodges the question on whether they would give up on Ukrainian land to get a ceasefire. Twice asks when the EU will put sanctions on Israel for their actions in Gaza, which is VERY popular with the audience. (Young audience.)
