Problem is when one of the goods they import is obviously energy and energy goes up a lot, it really screws with their numbers.

And potatoes as well.

Potatoes are going up.

But anyway, so I don't want people to say like, oh, the UK is completely, totally screwed up.

They know what they need to do.

There's just no political will to do it.

Now that you put me on the spot, I've forgotten them all.

But I mean, the real issue is that, you know, we think of these processes as discrete, but they're not.

They're continuous.

Like when you open a wellhead, you know, you spend a lot of money doing that.

You spend all your refining.

You know, you have an entire refinery.

Some of these refineries, by the way, are so cool and so big.

Yeah.

And they're all they're running 24 hours a day producing.

So they have to extract oil from the ground.

Then you refine it and you ship it.

And I guess the long story short is you cannot just it's not like a light switch.

You can't just turn it on and turn off.

You have it takes years and years to sort of.
