Do you want to discuss boring politics? (16 Viewers)

I was just joshing really, though I think that in 20 years EC tech will be seen for the continuing polluter that it is.

Many ECs tend to be quick off the lights but roll-on, which is where you want it, is another matter for anything.

Anyway, giv'ya a race

I was quite surprised, I test drove a couple of Nissan Leafs when I was looking before and it was like pushing a boat through treacle.

Only way the Zoe would beat that for speed is straight down off a cliff however!

No worries, there's now a solution for electric cars still being slightly shit

Expected the date on that tweet to be April 1st

 

[shmmeee]

Oh fucking hell I didn’t even read that tweet properly

 

[wingy]

Welease the scooter's,you know the one's that are ( dangerous) .
Happy to help .

 

[Skybluefaz]

Of course it is

 

[skybluetony176]

Of course it is

And the conclusion will be nothing to see here and they’ll get away with it because we’re a country full of plebs and they know it.

 

[PVA]

Laughable.

And while we're on the subject of totally fair and balanced reports...

 

[clint van damme]

Of course it is

Rambert when Skinner got thrown out the commons for calling him dodgy Dave and there were calls from Corbyn to be sacked for saying his financial affairs needed investigating?

I do not believe Mr Cameron has actually broken any laws by his lobbying has he?

Let's wait and see

 

[Grendel]

Let's wait and see

he hasn’t

 

[PVA]

Let's wait and see

We'll never know, because the report will say that it was all perfectly above board, whether it was or not.

 

[PVA]

Apparently the type of lobbying he carried out was so unusual that it isn't actually covered by any regulations and so he technically can't break any.

What is clear though is that what he did is very wrong.

Meanwhile, the concern over Cummings and his Handcock mates in ppe procurement has gone very quiet. Cumming's recent performance at the Science and Technology Committee was sickening in his use of blame to deflect the issue. Cnut.

Im sorry I can’t take you seriously with that avatar

 

[Deleted member 4439]

I don't blame you.

Would you prefer Cummings in his dress-down look?

 

[wingy]

I think Dispatches could be worth a watch tonight.

 

[Philosoraptor]

According to YouGov Labour is now 16 points behind the Conservatives in the Midlands/Wales area.

In the North, Labour are 4 points ahead of the Torys.

I’m excited at even the thought - please

Yeah, Skinner has been proven right. Heard clips on LBC of Cameron when he was prime Minister talking about making the very shit he's been up to, illegal.

Outside of any shenanigans isn't there a strategic issue here, let alone the threat yet again to a shrinking workforce and their conditions?

Correct, important to keep the steel infrastructure going internally. It's near on impossible to have a small nuclear war.

I was going to say this is unbelievable, but then I realised it's just par for the course these days.

These pricks just take the piss in plain sight and no one bats an eyelid.

I'm no defender of that c**t but the contract was awarded by one of the Welsh health boards, outside of his jurisdiction I think.

Yeah but there's no way he didn't have a (greasy) hand in it

 

[Deleted member 4439]

The contract was awarded one month after he was allocated the shares in his sister's company, and he didn't declare this until 2 months after the award of the contract. Doesn't matter one jot if he didn't have a hand in it or whether the connection didn't silently support the deal - it's a right old smelly one. It needs to be fully investigated.

 

[shmmeee]

I think like all Tory governments the details won’t matter soon so much as the overwhelming stench of corruption. It’s all just straws on the camels back at this point.

It's obviously very minor .( In value)
Did he say provide investment?

Could the two month wait to declare relate to the point at which topwood received payment on its first paid up invoice?

 

[Philosoraptor]

Labour now 14 points behind the Tories nationally, and in the Midlands/Wales Labour are 25 points behind.

I am sure any other Labour leader would be 20 points ahead.

If there's any relevance?

Think we can stop attributing this to the vaccine bounce now.

 

[shmmeee]

Have we stopped vaccinating?

Seriously what are your expectations for a Labour leader picking up what he did in a pandemic?

He’s doing better than Corbyn under worst circumstances, it’s time to accept Richard Burgon isn’t about to lead us all to socialist paradise and get real.

The current shift in polling has been happening since Dec 2020, unless you’ve got another major event that started around that time it’s a vaccine boost.
