I mean hydrogen is really just an electricity storage medium like batteries so if electricity costs more so will hydrogen.

I’d hope if we can get out of our own way we’d have cheap abundant energy.

I used to have abundant energy when I was younger. Now I am more like a half-paced, sleepy old sloth.

Are you any good at pushing EVs?

Is that a misspell? You're talking about EVO, right?

Sometimes I do push all his wrong buttons and he goes off on a bit of a rant, yes.

I have probably misread your unclear original intent, par for the course given your ususal lack of clarity in related matters.

And people complain about affordability of housing!

If it's going on the road, why not just use the bus? I get that these are driverless but the main thing about getting the tram in Nottingham for example is that it goes "off road" and cuts the travel time.

If you are putting this on Ansty Road to get out to Walsgrave Hospital then what's the actual benefit?

£12m that they have quoted to get from the Station to Puma Way (which is literally a stones throw) is madness, how much will it cost to get out to the hospital?

It’s a fucking pilot.

It’s a fucking pilot.

And it was shit. They were trying to hype it up like a new rollercoaster opening.

Whaaaaat? If you constantly delay and fuck around with a fledgling industry it can’t support a supply chain? I’m shocked!

They probably based their plans around the thing being open by now.

Well I guess all the publicity recently was about attracting some investment?
Sorry PR?

Reading this it looks like it’s separate from the Cov stuff actually. Just for the initial testing.

 

[wingy]

Oh right., makes you wonder though about it's fate.

Depends how the midlands rail investment stuff shakes out I guess. For all the moaning about reeves one good thing she’s done is move this type of spending outside of fiscal rules so it’s less likely to be cut because the bond markets dipped 0.01% overnight.
