    I never even remotely suggested that it’s killing poor people in the Andes, you’re adding your own context. I’m talking about eco systems, eco systems that took thousands and thousands of years to evolve. A good example is the Bonneville Salt Flats in America, Mecca of land speed records. They...

    Doesn’t matter where the vehicle is made, chances are the battery was made in China. There’s a reason it’s the top producing CO2 country and that’s because it’s the world’s factory, everything from lithium cells to semiconductors, we count that as china’s emissions not a production line in the...

    General election poll

    If this poll is anything to go by then the Tories really are fucked. It points to the worst case scenario for the Tories and the real possibility of the Lib Dem’s in opposition.

    I think they’ve pledged in their manifesto to only do one major fiscal budget in any 12 month period. So expect one when they get in inline with their manifesto and then nothing for 12 months. Who knows what the picture will be in 12 months. If they can do something to grow the economy money...

    3500kgs is the max you can drive on a modern car license. So a van. If you passed your test before a certain date you have grandfather rights and can drive upto 7500kgs. Smallest unarticulated lorry.

    Understand what? It’s irrelevant. Should France invade Canada because people there speak French and see themselves as ethnically french while the other half of the country don’t? Maybe the Republic of Ireland should invade Northern Ireland for the same reason. It means nothing and again is just...

    Russian expansion is happening right in front of your own eyes. Putin obviously couldn’t take Ukraine anytime he wanted, again by the evidence of your own eyes. The reason he didn’t is because he had a puppet government in Ukraine, see Belarus again for evidence of your own eyes. He also has a...

    The technology is now there, we’re already using it which is why hydrogen is available at a limited number of pumps and hydrogen cars are available in the open market. You can walk into any Toyota dealer today and order a hydrogen powered car. I think it actually is already safer than lithium...

    Sadly I think you’re correct. Both have proven to be economically illiterate by rowing backwards on green policy when we should be leading light in the western world. We’ve got everything we need except the will to do it.

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Putin is an imperialist, pure and simple. He sees the expansion of Russia as his duty. He’s never actually hidden this, we just turned a blind eye to it thinking we could trade him into a trusted ally. If you want to debate something the starting point is based in fact not the fantasy Farage and...

    Making trade with Russia so he wouldn’t go to war was a long term strategy of the EU, it failed. We tried for decades to trade Russia into becoming a trusted ally, he repaid us by committing acts of terror on UK soil and invade Georgia, Moldova and Ukraine. All we did was enrich him and his...

    Battery powered electric cars are a stop gap waiting for hydrogen electric cars to come on line. It’s already happening. Toyota has a couple of hydrogen models for instance available in the UK. Problem in the UK is there’s hardly anywhere to fill up. We’re at the crossroads again as we were in...

    We don’t know any of those things, unless you believe Putin. In which case the accusation of being a Russian asset are just strengthened. The Lab thing especially has been debunked so often and so completely that it’s ridiculous to parrot it. It’s Putins version of WMD in Iraq. It was bullshit...

    There’s a pattern forming here. Every one is goading. NATO and the EU goaded Russia into invading Ukraine, the Mail goaded Russia into making a specific statement. Problem for Farage is that it was a very easy and tangible statement to make. He helped deliver Brexit something that delighted the...

    Is it BS though? His links to Russia are hardly unknown. His “warning” was just parroting Putins warped narrative. There’s also no evidence yet that it’s damaging his campaign, no drop in polling has yet been witnessed. I bet his threat of legal action comes to nothing, he has a bit of history...

    True dat. Been on Kremlin mouthpiece Russia Today almost as many times as he’s been on Question Time. Parrots Putins warped version of history as if it’s fact etc etc.

    You’ve just answered your own question there. That’s what newspapers do, they all have an agenda, that’s the game. This particular newspaper has been one of his biggest cheerleaders for years, the moment it criticises him he has a melt. This is the same newspaper that ran weeks long campaigns...

    It’s a free country CVD and I absolutely respect your decision but it might be worth listening to this guy first

    He’s a bit of a snowflake isn’t he. Calling the lawyers in apparently.
