Here comes gas shortages and soaring prices. Seventeen percent of California's refinery capacity is scheduled to close by mid-2026. Last week's explosion in El Segundo just knocked out our largest refinery. The state's attempt to nudge people into electric vehicles has stalled. Thanks to the California Air Resources Board, California can't import gasoline from other states. With all this, I'll bet that $7 a gallon gas is in our future. It will be a regressive tax on Californians who can least afford it.

In a letter to Lord Patrick Vallance, Dame Chinyelu Onwurah expressed disappointment that the Global Talent Fund overlooks institutions in Northern England, excluding them from significant funding.
