Are they really the future? With take up of new electric vehicles being much slower than predicted and the pursuit towards cleaner alternative are we seeing a slow decline in the use of electric cars. Its been announced that Northvolt , one of the wests largest manufacturers of vehicle batteries is filing for bankruptcy due to a number of factors ,one of which being BMW cancelling an order worth up to 2 billion euros.
I see that an online petition to call for another general election has now reached a million votes , not going to happen but a more oil on the fire of Starmer's tenure .
"An online petition calling for another general election to be held has surpassed 1 million signatures after thousands more signed it every minute.
The call to action was started by small business owner Michael Westwood four days ago. Mr Westwood told the Express he thinks voters feel "betrayed" by Labour and that the "promises that were told" ahead of the July election "looking nothing like" the reality.
Described as Britain's fastest-ever growing petition by commentators, the campaign has been backed by a number of political figures including Reform UK leader Nigel Farage, who said he had "never seen anything like it" after watching 750,000 signees add their names in just 24 hours.
Former Tory leadership contender Robert Jenrick said: "Over a million people have now expressed their fury that Labour lied at the general election.
"Starmer shamelessly said one thing to get elected and has done the complete opposite once in power. Nobody will ever trust a word he says again."
He used to play ( albeit briefly) with grandson and to be picked up Barcelona at such a young age and from abroad must mean he has something about him . Enzo Romano "For those of you following Enzo Romano’s story I thought I’d let you know what’s happening at the moment. Many of you know Enzo’s story but for those of you who don’t I coached Enzo for 4 years in Cardiff. In 2016 when he was just 7 years old he got selected to play for Barcelona and his family moved from Cardiff to Barcelona. The story doesn’t end there! He is now 15 years old and plays for the Wales. Despite being born in Wales Enzo has now been denied British citizenship. His family have of course appealed this decision. However if this decision is upheld it will prohibit him from wearing the Welsh shirt and playing for Wales his home team. Enzo has always had a dream of becoming a professional footballer and he always wanted to represent the country of his birth, Wales."
Finally finished off the last of my summer bedding plants ,which for me is a record ,I'm normally pulling up the dead in October , Global warming has its benefits although looking out the window watching the snow falling its not so warm right now.
Are they worth it, it appears the darling of the labour front bench was recently spotted (3 weeks ago) fiddling around with a nice bit of military kit , namely a drone , no ordinary drone though but one manufactured by "Autel Robotics, a Shenzhen-based drone manufacturer, found which itself slapped with sanctions by the UK government last week, having allegedly supplied UAVs to be used by russian forces. Ironically these drones were also being used by the Nottinghamshire police force. Money has no enemies it seems.
That's the current status from my local surgery and yet .I suppose millions will be thrown at private health care providers so they can take care of the needy amongst us. and yes before some come all over a thither I know its the mail but its being reported else where.
Only in the UK, whatever happened to basic common-sense by our so called betters. Putin is moving towards a wider war footing, he's testing our ariel response to his air forces incursions and now some dimwit decided to allow one of his ships loaded with enough ammonia nitrate to reshape part of the UK's eastern seaboard .This after the more sensible amongst the free world decide its too much of a risk to allow it to dock. Taking aside whether Russia is involved or not why would the UK take a risk of a major event occurring right here at home when the ship can still move under its own powe.
Ruled by Labour , controlled by the unions ,a nice prospect ahead .I see the nurses have turned down 5.5 % pay rise , anyone have any idea as to why they would do that
This must be the 4th or 5th bombshell from Labour, Pensioners winter fuel allowance, can’t rule out pension taxes and LTA changes, can’t rule out removing the single persons council tax discount and now they are clearly positioning us to expect a significant reduction in the armed forces spending, just when the world is at its most dangerous since the Cold War.
Disgusting , and yet the homeless of this country many veterans included have nothing . Government own figures show that since 2001 to 2022, 285 ex veterans committed suicide : Suicide 285 100% Male 264 93% Female 21 7% Waiting Verdicts [note 1] 27 100% Male 18 67% Female 9 33% Many of these abandoned by the state and yet if you illegally cross the channel you get the best of everything the state can provide just because we're a caring sharing society , but not if you happen to be British, then you can sing.
Stolen from their mothers , not in the 18th nor 19th century but in living memory of many today . Another establishment, again the Catholic church guilty of, imo heinous crimes .
O dear never mind , think of all the lives being saved .So a cyclist can break the limit but not its support car although its nice to think someone wearing lycra and little else but a fly ingrained smile is seemed more protected than someone o in a 1.5 tonne car.
