Daily life interrupted as Pyongyang’s power shortage drags on
The regime is doing its best to provide power to essential hospitals that often deal with medical emergencies
The power shortage in North Korea’s capital Pyongyang remains severe, creating serious disruptions to daily life. Despite efforts to tap renewable energy sources like solar and wind power, these initiatives have had limited impact on addressing the electricity crisis.
There we are, a Pyongyang situation we in the UK may regard as an experiment. Clearly we need to send Ed Miliband there for a prolonged personal investigation into why wind and solar have had limited impact on Pyongyang power shortages.
North Korea faces a chronic shortage of electricity. Those who live in high-rise apartments are only able to use the elevators around rush hour. There is no electricity at other hours, forcing residents to make their way up and down the stairs.

Ed could spend some time living in one of those high-rise apartments and really get a feel for the issues. It would improve his fitness level too.

Any fool can fail to supply energy in a third-world totalitarian dictatorship. It takes a talented PPE graduate and member of the establishment like Ed to achieve such results in what was once an economic powerhouse with a functioning liberal democracy.
Sam - and Ed is certainly a fool. His social circle probably includes people who do not entirely disapprove of North Korea - "Look, even North Korea sees wind and solar as their future."

Could he possibly be sent tomorrow, emergency like?
I think it'd be best for us to send the ridiculous Ed anywhere else in the world, just to get his manic and fanatical ravings away from the public purse...
He's costing everyone several quid for his stupid ideas, and no doubt, this will be his last ever parliament, as he really is a dangerous and deluded clown.
James - good idea, before the Arctic suddenly melts. Ed can come back with an answer in a few years.
Scrobs - anywhere but here would be good, Mars for example.
Just Send Ed, with a one way ticket.
Anon - I agree, anywhere far away.
