Once again, an American president targets UK companies to win votes
Shell and BP’s windfall profits have made them an easy target for Biden’s populism
Calling on the oil and gas industry to “stop war profiteering”, Biden said: “The oil industry has a choice. Either invest in America by lowering prices for consumers at the pump and increasing production and refining capacity. Or pay a higher tax on your excessive profits and face other restrictions.”
Shell meanwhile, only has itself to blame for being name-checked in his speech after boss Ben van Beurden performed a screeching U-turn on a windfall tax last week. Having said as recently as February that he was not convinced by the need for government intervention, the Dutchman conceded last week that it was “a societal reality” “to help the most vulnerable in society”.
“Last week, Shell announced that it made $9.5bn in profit for the third quarter…I think that’s something,” Biden said.

His burial ceremony, which had all the trappings of a state funeral, was held at his private estate in Mecklenburg, Germany. The spectacle (photographs below) included a funeral procession led by a horse drawn funeral hearse with senior Nazis officials and senior Royal Dutch Shell directors in attendance, Nazi salutes at the graveside, swastika banners on display and wreaths and personal tributes from Adolf Hitler and Reichsmarschall, Hermann Goring. Deterding was an honored associate and supporter of Hitler and a personal friend of Goring.
Deterding was the guest of Hitler during a four day summit meeting at Berchtesgaden. Sir Henri and Hitler both had ambitions on Russian oil fields. Only an honored personal guest would be rewarded with a private four day meeting at Hitler’s mountain top retreat.
