The Union’s collapsing, vaccine supplies quietly dropping, 130,000 dead, the North East was sent into deep economic ruin by us and Brexit will make it worse BUT
We can get Boris to throw a pie in Starmer’s face while holding a pint.

Yeah I loved my SUV. Great for a family. Seems a bit weird to go on about this when all petrol only cars will be banned soon. I’d rather campaigners focused on important stuff like improving housing stock and decarbonising industry, transport has a clear plan and route to net zero.They were only 10% of the market a few years ago and now are 40% - lifestyle wise they are a much better family option - I’m waiting for my diesel guzzler to arrive soon.
An SUV is an SUV. In terms of its production and running it will still produce more carbon emissions than a 'standard' car, electric or not.
To be fair, whilst pollution is a concern, my primary gripe is the monstrous size of some of these used around the cities & towns for schools runs, popping to the gym or shop etc....usually driven by a tiny woman peering over the steering wheel, some SAS Ant Middleton alpha male wannabee or a chubby old boomer who is still under the rather dated impression that renting a 4x4 is somehow still a status symbol.
All 3 types are also, more often than not, piss poor, selfish & inconsiderate drivers.
Tbh the focus should be less on the car you own more on the journeys you make. I live by a primary school in a town with a sub 40k population with urban like density. Despite this it is traffic chaos in the morning, parents parking on nearby roads to drop the kids off. Surely with all the fucking about it’s no quicker than just walking to school.

And never mind the Tories have handed out billions of pounds to their mates, SOMEONE FROM LABOUR PUT SOME £250 HEADPHONES DOWN AS EXPENSES!!!!11!!1!!
Its running won’t change anything and manufacture is covered by me saying focus on decarbonising industry. This sort of individual blame stuff works against the climate agenda generally IMO. The big polluters need to be tackled at source not with consumer actions.
I mean any car is worse than no car by this logic, but we accept people will still have cars. Equally dogs have double the carbon footprint of SUVs and no one is talking about restricting dog ownership.
I can see the point that they’re too big for our roads and that cunts drive them. Just not the climate argument.
TBH I’ve been borrowing my Dads Renault Zoe over lockdown which is the definition of shut milk float and it’s been great! Beats most things off at the lights, handles great, bang it on charge overnight every few days, no worries. Just a bit too pricey for where I’m looking right now, but otherwise I’d go electric tomorrow. ICE tech now is like having a steam engine car in the 1960s.
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!
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.
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?
We'll never know, because the report will say that it was all perfectly above board, whether it was or not.
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.

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.
