Governor Newsom gets tough

BBC:

The deadliest wildfire in the state’s history was sparked by ageing equipment owned by PG&E. It spawned billions of dollars in liability claims against the company.

In a video posted to Twitter on Saturday, Governor Newsom said the power cuts were „infuriating everyone, and rightfully so“.

„We are going to do our best to get through these high wind events… and get these lights back on and do everything in our power to make sure PG&E’s never in a position where they’re doing this to us again,“ he said.

One can only imagine the profusion of stickers, both physical and social media, righteously proclaiming that a San Franciscan has purchased a lottery ticket.
