Did no one tell him that video already killed the radio star and yet it didn’t.

What’s more, David is choosing militarily relevant targets Goliath is simply terrorising a populace

I’m as pro eu as anyone, but the terms we’d rejoin on will be a harder sell than the ones we left on. “What do you mean we have to agree to take the Euro?” being quite an argument. There’s not enough discussion of what this means yet

Average covers a lot there. There’s much higher local prices being reported. Even $6.28 plus gst is not the clear blue water there was

They’re pretty much there aren’t they? $8-9 for a gallon of diesel, it’s a 3.8l gallon and they add sales tax. We’re at about £2 for a liter

This guy fixed a lot of things, but he also gave us a second Major term, he can sit back down again.

For sure, however it’s unlikely that his replacement will be better for them, Starmer was too far to the right.

Is it possible to lie worse than Johnson, he’d have one lie at 8 and change to another at 9 while his spokesman was on tv defending the first one. That and taking bribes and the gift that never stops giving which is Brexit

Christ, he’s bad, for sure but how can he be worse than Johnson or Truss?

Presumably they’ll be making teachers teach this at school soon rather than admitting the error.

Because it will also take down half of our political establishment as it should do. Epstein was hoovering up influence, the numbers caught up in this must be staggering. It just needs one domino.

Nerves of aluminium alloy, don’t want steel on a minesweeper, sorry for the nerd humour

It’s as simple as they don’t pay tax on the oil. Their lorries will also be using diesel. For your average McDonald’s drive through, the roofs are large enough to support pv panels to make them net generators.

I agree and it’s sad that nimbys in the uk perpetually block 6m railway tracks so that we can be stuck behind lorries pulling containers and have to drive to the other end of Kent to put our cars on a train to France.

L-ion batteries are already highly recyclable, waste is far less of an Issue. The main problem is that they add some weight, but it’s not a problem for all loads. Moving steel girders across Europe is one issue, bottles of shampoo across the uk, quite another.

I appreciate also the eHGVs still favour lighter loads and national, rather than international routes, but you’d assume that businesses like supermarkets would be pretty keen to adopt these. I can’t imagine that the Iran war is helping their costs rn.

I dislike this Mandleson debate, he was always odious and put in post because of iffy Trump connections. I don’t know why they can’t admit that. I have trouble squaring the outrage with a prime minister taking bribes and enriching his mates only five years ago whilst also ignoring clearances.
