Renault as an example can recycle all their batteries - not sure to the extent though but that's the way to go.

By my reckoning the mile long copy-paste posts will go quiet at about 6:30 when the battery dies.

Probably, I am not sure about the fat pill, whether they will just line them up at the job centre, fatties one way and jab, jab, jab, or whether being unemployed will tick a box at the GPs if you ask for it and be given ahead of receiving healthy eating, diet, exercise and lifestyle advice. You'd get it if you want to work but are unable to.

Never ending question after question... often they are the same question repeated in a different form for the hard of understanding. Oh and 'Morning!! but while you are talking questions, you forgot to answer this one.... Same single question just asked again till you give an answer. "If Trump raped your wife, grabbed your children by the genitals and then popped into a changing room to watch them all changing would your view be any different? This is what he has done. Raped someones wife and child (at least one), 'You can grab them by the pussies' and well reported that when he had Miss Universe he'd wander into the changing rooms of the 20 year olds for a good look. Note also that he was besties with Epstein... whose close circle of pals are also dubious.. but Trump alone is not, hmmmmm? and has also commented that he would be happy to sleep with one of his daughters"

8 to 10% a year increase in value is better than a banks 1%

Trump is the badly chosen figurehead for the Republicans. I think their policies would broadly be the same on immigration regardless of leader, and perhaps they would do better than appealing to those who shout loudest and going with those who are more competent. Looking at the US presidents, they have their 2 term rule because America tend to vote the incumbent president back in again - most serve 2 terms (excluding Trump, Bush, Carter and Hoover in the last 100 years they all have - Ford is an exception since he wasn't elected president in the first place). The thing being, if Trump wasn't president they would still have a Republican administration. Trump is a badly chosen leader, failing his party. Then there is the matter that a lot of people want to gloss over his various crimes and accept that a rapist, sex abuser, and voyeur should be rewarded as a leader, president, figure head and role model.

Looking forward to the day when I commute to the office and not see any green space. 4 bedroom executive houses do nothing to help anyone if the new buyers cannot afford starter homes till their mid thirties. Locally loads of new builds here, but no new jobs in the town, no new facilities (community halls, churches, pubs, local shops), bus routes, but the builders do leave unsuitable-for-a-house postage stamp sized green space 'parks'. All these houses are are places to sleep

I find my 'DIY warehouse' own brand lawn mower will get through a lot on level ground - including brambles. Generally I'll hedge trim the brambles in the wood down to 2" off the ground - enough to not catch the blade - though a lot of bending - and then mow the rest. Wear big wellies, steel toes, and discard the grass collector. Own brand mower so I am not sad if break it a bit. An option if you have a mower available. Other options above are probably better

I'll take your lack of answer that you find a rapist, sex abuser and voyeur as a suitable role model. Would love to see your dinner table talk with your kids as you explain to them why these crimes are acceptable in a leader and role model, someone to aspire to be? (I am not sure I made any assumptions above, stated known facts and asked if you find them suitable qualities in a role model, someone to hold up to the family and say "aspire to be like him")

So it is not the crime that is deeply upsetting to you, but just that an immigrant committed a crime (any crime counts). Why is that?

No, doesn't look like a Tilley, loved the flare-ups when you got it wrong. AA Maglite I think, I think you can get LED bulbs for them now if you want 21st century tech

Ahhh, back onto Migrant watch today then? why didn't you post about the school teacher (British) this week who was done for the same thing?

Still got maglites knocking about, the AA ones are what you need

Yup, they still want their ££ whatever we use (EV... can't tax from house electric - penalised those without cars and if you have solar PV + battery you'd pay no tax there)

Yes, you are holding Trump up as a saviour, a role model, skipping past his crimes. Just asking if his crimes were nearer to home would you still be doing the same thing and admiring the man. So third time of asking, and I am beginning to think you are avoiding the answer because it is uncomfortable for you... If Trump raped your wife, grabbed your children by the genitals and then popped into a changing room to watch them all changing would your view be any different? This is what he has done. Raped someones wife and child (at least one), 'You can grab them by the pussies' and well reported that when he had Miss Universe he'd wander into the changing rooms of the 20 year olds for a good look. Note also that he was besties with Epstein... whose close circle of pals are also dubious.. but Trump alone is not, hmmmmm? and has also commented that he would be happy to sleep with one of his daughters (forgot about that one, was on the TV last night)

But noting here it is hypothetic - no plans to do this and the last government toyed with the idea and that is why the numbers are readily available - the research was done months and years ago

Which to be honest, at the worst case estimation 15p / mile and take off the approximated 6p / mile petrol duty, 20,000 miles would give an extra bill of about £200... In the grand scheme of things, not a lot. Zero rate the car tax and that drops to maybe £100? Drive only a few hundred miles year and you'll be better off That 15p is the worst case, there are a whole range of costs quoted from 1p up to 15p

Yup and while you are in reading mode, if you can muster comprehension for long enough, a little on how the tax system works. It is a large subject so focus on how taxes set into law last year, the year before and longer will still become effective even if the start date is the future and there is a change of government. The tax burden will rise even if the government does nothing from this

Not at all. So to highlight my views, and you seem to have skipped past giving an answer here, (why is that by the way?), I'll ask again, If Trump raped your wife, grabbed your children by the genitals and then popped into a changing room to watch them all changing would your view be any different? This is what he has done. Raped someones wife and child (at least one), 'You can grab them by the pussies' and well reported that when he had Miss Universe he'd wander into the changing rooms of the 20 year olds for a good look. Note also that he was besties with Epstein... whose close circle of pals are also dubious.. but Trump alone is not, hmmmmm? and has also commented that he would be happy to sleep with one of his daughters (forgot about that one, was on the TV last night) But you appear to forgive him for this and think he makes a good role model and leader. I do not. Why is that?

Not sure where I stand on this but there is a drop in revenue for them from petrol tax which they need to get back. A massive change to how we pay taxes if there was though. Taxes are inevitable just how they are collected changes. Sure there will be some whinging from those living in mansions in the sticks but if done fairly the tax we pay should be similar however they do it

Is that a bad thing?

I know this is petrol station but everyones favourite warehouse DIY store last year had a few weeks where it was cheaper to buy solid oak flooring than firewood (I know it has varnish and so on and we shouldn't but 'apparently' it burns like a rocket)

Not sure about the gearbox, can't remember if the transformers are oil or air cooled, a weight / size thing. In the order of things though, pure CO2, and windmills are better. There was a data centre I think in Wales, data centre under the council pool - heated the water for free and the data centre saved money by having a massive heat sink above it instead of 100's of air con units, definitely 'we', the world need to be more clever and joined up thinking.

'Laughing at me' for highlighting that Trump is a rapist, serial sex abuser and voyeur? And yet, you appear to support him and forgive him for this? You're an honourable man, no double standards, so I wonder, if Trump raped your wife, grabbed your children by the genitals and then popped into a changing room to watch them all changing would your view be any different? This is what he has done. Raped someones wife and child (at least one), 'You can grab them by the pussies' and well reported that when he had Miss Universe he'd wander into the changing rooms of the 20 year olds for a good look. But you appear to forgive him for this and think he makes a good role model and leader. I do not. (noting that he was besties with Epstein... whose close circle of pals are also dubious.. but Trump alone is not, hmmmmm?)

Not at all, it was well publicised that the Tory tax plans are set the push income tax up and our tax burden to just over 37%... suggest you read the news occasionally. Given that the Labour party hasn't changed anything yet, that is the trajectory we are on. Well publicised.
