Yeah its brim full, it’s a different set of lights as opposed to the ad blue low level warning light

Hi All Warning lights for ad blue system malfunction etc came up yesterday evening on my 2018 wildtrack, 67k on the clock and not long back from Ford for a whole chassis swap as part of the corrosion rectification scheme, exhaust was replaced at same time. Anyone got any ideas of where to start ??. The issue I have is I’m up on North Uist working so not so easy to pop to the Ford dealer 🤷♂️and the fact it’s telling me it’s going into no engine start mode in a certain amount of miles, a certain amount that unfortunately will not see this job finished and get me home.

Two boys, both 16, stabbed to death around a mile apart in southeast London APPLE.NEWS Two 16-year-old boys have been stabbed to death in two locations around a mile apart in southeast... Khan should be held to account for the absolute epidemic of knife crime in London rather than showboating about clean air zones or ripping into firemen who risk their lives for others on a daily basis. Something I tend to think he would never do.

Absolute insanity, we are being hammered with energy/fuel prices,tax increases, mortgages going up and high inflation 😡so so easy to waste someone else’s money when you’ve sacrificed nothing to make it.

England fans say they were stripped naked and humiliated for dressing up as Crusaders at World Cup APPLE.NEWS Two England fans have claimed they were stripped naked and humiliated for dressing up as... Idiots quite frankly, rather akin to Germans coming to Wembley dressed as ss stormtroopers 🤷♂️I’m pretty sure people would be up in arms.

There’s one very very good reason

Can I ask how old you are or indeed what you do for a living.

Talking about arguing with a child, you relentlessly ask this question yet as far as I can see the question has been answered with references to a number of benefits. Anyway I’ll ask you a question too, do you genuinely believe that Brexit has caused more damage than the NAO estimates of what covid cost ie £376 billion or £5492 for every man woman and child in the land, including those whom will never ever contribute a penny to the system. Give that a bit of thought in between fluffing Dempsey and trying to master the technology on this site.

Yeah sadly that did play a part. Im well aware of the decline in shipbuilding, I started my diving career on the Tyne and regularly was up at many of the yards in particular Swans doing hull swims etc post launch on various vessels including HMS Westminster, Northumberland, Fort George, BAS James Clark Ross etc etc the latter is now retired which sort of brings it home how long I’ve been at this crap. Anyway BAE systems and Babcocks are knocking a few out and Barrow does well out of the submarines etc, we can only hope thst one day a government with balls and a long term strategic vision puts legislation in place to make sure that stuff is built here. The bullshit and lies around the wind farms and renewables etc is infuriating when in reality virtually zero is made here worse still a hell of a lot is coming all the way from China. A lot of people slate the Americans but the likes of the Jones act is to be admired IMO.

🤷♂️Of course they were around but the numbers of apprenticeships and the incentives to train local Labour dropped massively after free movement. That is an undeniable fact and nothing to do whatsoever with what Andy said. I’m genuinely pleased your nephew succeeded. I witnessed the decline of the numbers Scottish lads for a particular firm we used for successive vessel mobs post free movement and heard it first hand off their manager, cheaper to hire welders as and when required on an ad hoc basis through an agency specifically dealing with Eastern Europe welders/platers etc etc rather than train people and offer them the benefits of a full time job and a career. Since Brexit I’ve witnessed an about turn and seen young lads starting to turn up once more. You might not like the Brexit result but I’d rather see what I’m seeing now than what I’ve watched happen previously.
-
The benefits that Andy described J are a good enough start for me. Less dependence upon ready made cheap imported Labour and a drive to train or apprentice our youngsters, surely that is better than watching a locust type clearing out of various Eastern European countries skilled workers to benefit businesses at the expense of our own.

Greater London Ulez expansion given go-ahead by Sadiq Khan APPLE.NEWS Sadiq Khan’s decision comes in the face of mass opposition Khan has the same attitude to consultations as the SNP it would seem, why bother wasting tax payers money if you are not going to listen to the people affected by your actions.

Don’t blame Brexit for our economic woes WWW.TELEGRAPH.CO.UK On a range of metrics - from trade to inflation and the financial sector - the downsides of leaving the EU... Covid and the fools who bought into it and the insane measures taken to supposedly protect us blah blah blah would seem to have served us up far more of a shitstorm than the results of a democratic decision have.
-
Andy you’d be better off talking to an oak beam bud.
-
Did you used to come on here masquerading as a consultant by any chance !!!. An increase in wages as mentioned above and a proven return to training our own young people rather than a ready supply of cheap foreign Labour. I worked with many polish and other Eastern European guys over the past 10 or so years on vessel mobs/demobs and funnily enough they bemoaned the whole system and blamed it for the decline of their own home industries, the polish guys in particular many of whom came from soviet era state owned and supported trade schools looked upon the system as one of exploiting rather than nurturing skills etc.

Or the thousands that were binned during covid.

Totally ****************ed because it’s badly ran, overstaffed in all the wrong areas and supporting a ludicrous amount of 6 figure plus salaries. You really really should go and look at the scale of salaries being paid to the upper echelons of NHS management. Come back after you’ve done some research with a daily or even hourly figure to run the nhs and fund the astronomical waste that goes hand in hand with it. NHS trusts !!!! what a wonderful idea that turned out to be.
-
Do some research rather than just repeating the question again and again and again and again. That’s what I’d do if no one could be arsed to take me on. It’s probably because you said it was irrelevant to you etc etc hence people treat it as such.
-
Following a link earlier which I initially doubted but true enough, Google seems to be struggling a bit with certain searches 🤷♂️🤔 Moonbat, tin foil 🤪!!! Nope
-
For someone whom claims it’s irrelevant you are pushing hard for people to do your research for you.

Hospital flu cases up 10 times on last year amid 'tripledemic' warning, NHS England data shows APPLE.NEWS Ten times more people are in hospital with flu than this time last year, latest figures show. 🤔 Ten times apparently 😞really
-
No shit !! you know my views on the last two years and the overwhelming majority of politicians and also individuals who supported it.
-
It’s not only what they would have done it’s what they did do ie supported all measures and always demanded more 🤷♂️That chunk of acknowledgment seems to be sticking in your throat.

Now there’s a true child vaccinating believers name I ain’t heard for a while. Define government incompetence during covid especially now we can see the measures implemented have had horrendous long term damaging Health, educational, financial, mental health issues etc etc without admitting those from other parties who wanted harsher longer more comprehensive restrictions etc etc would indeed have made matters even worse.
