Feels like not enough people are aware of how fully cooked the internal combustion engine is. My mum's old diesel Honda currently costs £120 to fill up, on which it'll do just under 300 miles. My sister's EV costs £6 for a full charge which will take her 280 miles.

This is one where you can't really avoid cancelling the Nice Lady Walk, but the correct reason for cancelling it is that you have told the Nazis that their march is unequivocally banned and you are going full French riot cop on the ones who show up anyway

Ed Davey is the least of the problems of a party whose internal leadership is built on a foundation of "a few more strongly worded leaflets will do it" with the main opposition "have we considered looking at voters turned away from the Tories?". Without that change the leader means little

It just boggles my mind that an American state has been in North Korean missile range since the late 90s, with very public reminders, and no one treats it like a big deal except that increasing missile range might “threaten the US mainland.” Great, awesome. We’re definitely not treated as a colony.

There’s a difference between sharing someone’s journalism and taking it to make your own content. I’ve had my work lifted multiple times by this content creator. It’s particularly frustrating when he talks about his views growing as local news fades away, while using the work of local journalists.

It is important that the German Greens directly reject the UK Green Party’s resolution titled "Zionism is Racism" and welcome the suspension of its voting rights within the European Green Party. It‘s urgently necessary for the @europeangreens.eu to distance itself from the UK Green Party’s position.

Green Party conference just voted in favour of this motion, and this time, in the hall itself, specifically voted against an amendment which would have removed the element about “Zionist Synagogues”. As a result, for most Jews the Green Party will now be considered to have a policy of antisemitism.

I lost friends over antisemitism in Labour. I tried to argue that the fact that people on the right were trying to use antisemitism as a weapon against Labour (and they were, in bad faith) did not mean that antisemitism did not exist in Labour (it did). This argument still echoes.

Always saw him as a careerist type, which is always hilarious to meet in the Lib Dems because. . .well imagine, there's long been jokes that various Lab/Tory MPs are Lib Dems who wanted a career with potential. He had been hyped by the party so I guess he expected to be handed it. And wasn't.

Iirc it was in 2017 after you had attended a Conference Event (Young Liberals?) when someone said "[You] feels like a Lib Dem who just would never stoop so low as to identify as such" which was met with general agreement in the bar. So I guess that "We accept you one of us" holds still?

I knew him back in the Lib Dems and, yeah, his main talent is to be really passionate about things. But in a way it quickly becomes obvious that he hasn't actually *thought* about it much. He literally only left because he was sulking about the Richmond by-election selection.
