fabricated media birthday nonsense to be consumed by idiots.
Which are what, in your opinion?It's not even worth trying to get into it, and you show exactly why the remain campaign was and remains so unsuccessful. Such a shallow understanding of the real motivations behind brexit. Bendy bananas etc is just fabricated media birthday nonsense to be consumed by idiots.

I honestly believe in years to come the current batch of electric cars will be viewed in the same light as diesels now, due to the harmful processes needed to get the materials for the batteries and how short a lifespan they will have due to the amount of mileage a lot of people do as so need recharging so often.I bought my diesel because the Government encouraged it - did 660 miles on one tank , electric cars are a disaster for long journeys - it will decrease in value as we go on but tbh I don’t care if if died t cost me much to run

I haven’t read that book and it may well be in there, but looking at the leave vote distribution I imagine that post-industrial towns in Wales, Midlands and Northern England that were totally abandoned by the government of the day will be part of it.Which are what, in your opinion?
In the case of the north of England generally, an ever declining standard of living which was brought about by neoliberalism of which the EU is a big part (but not the only part).Which are what, in your opinion?
1.2M vehicles on the DVLA database are ULEZ exempt because they’re historic vehicles. The percentages of percentages get smaller and smaller the more you look into it.

Won't be getting any future classics if they're all scrapped...Not many people are running historic vehicles as everyday runabouts. Plenty of people of relatively limited means, but who won't hit the in-benefit criteria, are running old bangers that aren't ULEZ compliant. If the numbers were genuinely tiny, then paying them to take them off the road wouldn't be an issue.
Andy Burnham, the mayor of Manchester, is taking a different approach to ULEZ. This looks like a better way to get buy in, to me...

I find this hard to disagree with. I also suspect that battery powered cars are just a stop gap until hydrogen powered cars become more viable. I also don’t understand why the government also isn’t heavily investing in green hydrogen production right now as that in my mind is very obviously the future.I honestly believe in years to come the current batch of electric cars will be viewed in the same light as diesels now, due to the harmful processes needed to get the materials for the batteries and how short a lifespan they will have due to the amount of mileage a lot of people do as so need recharging so often.
I think that’s almost inevitable simply because of the throw away mentality we now have as consumers. They’ll be survivors but on the fraction of the scale we’ve seen in the past.Won't be getting any future classics if they're all scrapped...
We’re seeing the same with 15 minute cities. The right love jumping on this with huge conspiracy theories about mind control and lost rights. If you see a protest it’s typically bused in protester’s. Where it is happening it tends to be far more popular than unpopular amongst actual local residents and businesses. It’s just right wing snowflakes pretending that they’re a silent majority when in reality they’re a noisy minority.The issue isn't the actual ULEZ plan though as most people will not be effected by it, it's just the timing of this election allowed it to be weaponised in a borough that hasn't yet had it implemented.
It is actually quite popular in boroughs where it has already been implemented.
Yeah once it is implemented in the outer boroughs and most people see it has no effect on them and that it actually improves their lives then the issue will pass.We’re seeing the same with 15 minute cities.

Very strange for the Labour leadership to play into the idea that it lost the election then.Yeah once it is implemented in the outer boroughs and most people see it has no effect on them and that it actually improves their lives then the issue will pass.

Tories and champagne socialists mainly. Same people happy that LTNs are directing the traffic out of their pleasant neighbourhood.Most of those happy will be Tory voters anyway - it’s the poorer people who will be disadvantaged
I got interested in the idea of 15 minutes cities a few years ago and I really can't see what is in it that has seen it become a right wing conspiracy.We’re seeing the same with 15 minute cities.

I mean with tracking chips in covid vaccines you can see its mental but you can at least see there's something they believe in.
What on earth can possibly wrong with having everything you need to live a decent quality of life within 15 minutes of where you live?
Most of the people who think that hardly ever leave homeI think their theory is that 'they' want us cooped up in these 15 minute cities and we won't be able to venture more than 15 mins from our home.

This Starmer impersonator they got on LBC is really good, I mean it can't be the same person as Starmer is against Ulez
Setting aside the flip-flop in policy, there’s a bit of an issue as I see it with Government support. The example is the grant for buying an EV just gives manufacturers licence to increase the retail price to effectively ‘price in’ that grant. I’d imagine the same situation if they introduced a 10-year amortisation period for EV finance.
He has never been against ULEZ's, he rightly thinks the government can do more to help those it hits.This Starmer impersonator they got on LBC is really good, I mean it can't be the same person as Starmer is against Ulez
It’s a ridiculous idea
It’s bizarre. It’s almost as if they’ve seen the movie Maze runners and thought it was a documentary.I think their theory is that 'they' want us cooped up in these 15 minute cities and we won't be able to venture more than 15 mins from our home.
it did lose the election but as we have already discussed it is the weaponised version of it rather than the reality of the ULEZ. The tory campaign was able to paint a picture where everyone was going to have to pay 1000s more a year and that scares people,.Very strange for the Labour leadership to play into the idea that it lost the election then.

The odd thing with that is if the Tories are putting your policies surely the point is it’s because they can’t talk of their own policies or their own record.20 points ahead yet terrified of their own shadow.
