What's the quoted electric range to get it down to 5%BIK?indeed
Everyone knows that the result is a foregone conclusion.Very surprised at how little canvassing there’s been in this constituency. No knocks on the door, just one leaflet through from Labour.
Guess that means I can vote against Labour without much troubleEveryone knows that the result is a foregone conclusion.
There's apathy from the voters and politicians.
The Green Party getting absolutely pulled apart on Panorama.
Seemingly focused on wealth inequality abroad rather than sorting out what's going on at home. Have a long term policy of 'a world without borders'. Good luck with that.
It's a bit odd that members of other parties are being ridiculed on here, but absolute silence over the behaviour of some members of some other certain parties. One from the Greens is still on the ballot paper having likened Hamas to the French Resistance in the Second World War. Another called for Israel to be wiped out.
Like this thread, they're completely out of touch with most people in society and lack any real common sense.

A limit of 4 per boat though?Surely he's the last man you'd want representing your party on a stop the small boats ticket?
No choice but electric from 2030 when Labour get in. Madness.What's the quoted electric range to get it down to 5%BIK?
My last motor was in the 12% bracket (39 miles).
Now I have an electric car which is basically free, which it needs to be to make up for the irritation of running it.
Don't reckon it will be free by then either unless they figure out another way to get it out of you!No choice but electric from 2030 when Labour bet in. Unless they only were one term.
Road pricing.Don't reckon it will be free by then either unless they figure out another way to get it out of you!
He’s a bit of a snowflake isn’t he. Calling the lawyers in apparently.
not sure how this can be a big issue for anyone when the current governments policy is to do the same by 2035No choice but electric from 2030 when Labour get in. Madness.
Unless they only were one term.
the zero emission vehicle mandate, the government’s pathway towards all new cars and vans being zero emission by 2035, is now law

A lot can change in 5 years - and needs to.not sure how this can be a big issue for anyone when the current governments policy is to do the same by 2035
I'd suggest by your own figures that Labour will win the seat quite comfortably.Been out canvassing etc for 10 days (in Dudley)
People not very enthused. In order of frequency, issues raised are ...
Need a change
NHS
Cost of living
Energy bills
Immigration
Crime
Potholes
Of those who expressed a view ...
One Conservative, 3 or 4 Reform, 1 libdem, 20 odd Labour but ...
Roughly 30 per cent undecided.
The tory here had 52per cent of vote and big majority in 2019
Too close to call it yet
Why the fuck does that make him a snowflake ?He’s a bit of a snowflake isn’t he. Calling the lawyers in apparently.
He’s balls deep with the Russians that’s whyWhy the fuck does that make him a snowflake ?
He's highlighted a deliberate attempt by the press to falsely manipulate public opinion 2 weeks before a general election.
If its true (I emphasise if) then heads should roll.

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.Why the fuck does that make him a snowflake ?

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.He’s balls deep with the Russians that’s why
So you expect him to see his campaign ruined 2 weeks before an election, by a newspaper deliberately looking to print BS???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 to get both Starmer and Rayner arrested triggering police investigations (again) into both of them that ended in no case to answer. You didn’t see either of them flouncing off crying about getting solicitors involved.
What’s the BS?So you expect him to see his campaign ruined 2 weeks before an election, by a newspaper deliberately looking to print BS???
Of course he's getting solicitors involved, he'd be insane not to.
If you think that makes him a snowflake I'm sure he ain't going to lose sleep over your opinion.
Give it a month or so before the same rag prints stories of Russian or Chinese attempts to manipulate the voting.
Honestly, how funking gullable are we???
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 of threatening legal action when he has a melt. It’s the second time just in this campaign he’s threatened solicitors.So you expect him to see his campaign ruined 2 weeks before an election, by a newspaper deliberately looking to print BS???

The Mail trying to gode the Russian ambassador into comments over Farage and the referendum party, so they can come up with some form of headline that paints reform in a bad light.What’s the BS?
How's it goading? From what Farage said wouldn't it be weirder if he was called an enemy?The Mail trying to gode the Russian ambassador into comments over Farage and the referendum party, so they can come up with some form of headline that paints reform in a bad light.
While obviously staying tight lipped over massive corruption within the Tory party or Sunaks tax affairs or the collapse of the nhs or the state of the roads, etc etc etc.
Isn't he just a different sort snake oil salesman to Corbyn, just appeals to a different demographic?The Mail trying to gode the Russian ambassador into comments over Farage and the referendum party, so they can come up with some form of headline that paints reform in a bad light.

Anyway sorry Rob you may not want to be hereI see someone else has joined me in the Conservative option on the poll. To the disillusioned voters out there, I'd say v9ting Conservative is even more important at this election.
Labour will win by a landslide. My vote is pointless, it's always Labour here. However we need the numbers in the election to show there is a way back in the future. If Reform are the second option and the Conservative Party obliterated there is no way back. Reform at some point would get their chance. That would not only make us a laugh ming stock like Trump but is also very dangerous ( a la Le Pen), so be careful with your protest vote and I'd encourage spoilt ballots or stay at home over voting Reform.
He discredited himselfI think the Tory's in the main are shit scared of him. If he gets enough votes he could see the conservatives decimated at the ballot box, Hence the desperate attempt by the Tory press to discredit him.

Battery will decline in performance as it gets older of courseIt’s I think about 65 miles. The odd time I’ve used it it does do the range tbf
I agree on this issue. I think the current generation of EV's will be looked at in the same vein as diesels - lauded as an environmental gamechanger then later looked on as the devil after everyone's bought one. The process for getting lithium is very damaging environmentally and the amount of used batteries that will be need to be dumped will be shocking. Can see those 'bought a diesel? You could get compensation" ads coming back in a few years for EV's.A lot can change in 5 years - and needs to.
Battery technology, charging infrastructure, generating capacity.
EVs are expensive to buy and expensive to run in terms of insurance, the cost of using public charging points and their incredible depreciation.
Whole life emissions and other environmental damage aren’t great. This rush for ev feels a bit like Gordon Brown’s endorsement of diesel.
Starmer’s mates in Europe have an EV mandate by 2035, the same as current government.
People generally don’t want them, sales are being maintained by companies and company car drivers. Take up in Europe is also slowing.
I am W&L but we've been Labour in 20 of past 27 years and if Matt Western won last time in spite of a strong Conservative win, then I'd have thought him safe this time.Anyway sorry Rob you may not want to be herebut I'm trying to keep Eva's thread as he intended but this deserved a reply!
Firstly I could have sworn you lived Warwick and Leamington, and that only changed to Labour relatively recently and isn't exactly secure?
Secondly I kind of agree with you so have you a like. Voting Reform as a protest lets them in or encourages the Conservatives further right. My problem with it is that there Conservatives have managed to lurch right all on their own without any help from Reform or voters! This isn't even the party May led.
So I'd say voting for them encourages a move right as much as voting Reform as it endorses the disaster of the last parliament. What the answer is I don't know - traditionally the Liberal economic policy on their right is probably what you're after, but I doubt you're a social Liberal
Vote Loony?
