The worst book I’ve ever read has to be 1984. The book is excellent, but did not do good things for me so it goes down as the worst

This genuinely made me laugh

Very odd that this account usually posts media from popular US and UK outlets but the last two have been doom stories from this, previously unused, German outlet…

I wholeheartedly agree with the end, I am sometimes at odds with the means but it can’t be denied that these activists have some of the biggest balls on the planet and I have nothing but respect for them. The message is clear and consistent, garnering huge publicity for the cause is good. I know some people don’t like it but you try getting a multi trillion pound industry to cease causing irreparable harm and you probably wouldn’t make your local paper.

What should be remembered is that it shouldn’t take this type of activism, but what is left when voices are ignored?

Switched the other day. It’s just as good

Constant appeasement has been the cause of so much more conflict as a whole. No sane country wants conflict but when it arises, it needs to be crushed at its source. It cannot stand and each nation should be afraid to commit such atrocities in fear of the response. Tying conditions to aid given to the Ukrainian war effort is ludicrous. France should be very proud of their commitment to fight for what is very clearly right and other nations should follow in their footsteps. I am not advocating that Ukraine starts blasting missiles at civilians centres in Russia but they should be free to strike infrastructure that has clear ties to the invasion. Play stupid games, win stupid prizes

What are you planning on growing?

I think this matter boils down to the following: Nuclear is better than fossil fuels (by a significant margin) but the spin up time and investment is significant, too significant for many. Such little investment has been made in the last 10 or so years that investing now when the world is on the precipice of being able (though clearly, not very willing) to use wholly renewable sources seems like a better investment, even with the various pitfalls of each respective source. Energy storage has come a long way and with significant leaps every few years, it seems that energy storage + renewables is the way forward but it’s sad to see the missed nuclear opportunity. Like so many other promising and environmentally friendly(er) ideas, it has unfortunately been passed over when the time was right and will not be utilised sufficiently.

Considering the affected models, this is absolutely ludicrous. Those vehicles already suffer from diminished battery capacities, with some being around the 50% mark at this point, so to further corrode owner experience is ridiculous. Early adopters paved the way for the current spate of EVs so punishing them for this is outrageous. The article states 2G networks will remain live for almost another 6 years. Giving that reason as the cause of the loss of functionality is so disingenuous it is beyond belief. What a way to inspire confidence in your company…

Revanced all the way, baby!

What a surprise! Jeremy Hunt making claims that are both inaccurate and downright idiotic. Crazy that the shill is just regurgitating rubbish from his corporate pals.

The independent body is not the source of the claim, as suggested by Hunt, that UK gas is four times cleaner than imported gas. This figure comes from the oil and gas industry and has been disputed because it does not account for the emissions caused by burning gas, which account for nearly all of its carbon footprint.

I cannot believe that people are still supportive of any government that values the pliability of it’s MPs over the well-being of our country and planet.

I hear the narrative that people shouldn’t protest in this way but I have taken to asking what is the alternative? If you are silent, your discontent will go unnoticed. The real problem is that we are having to do this at all. As far as I’m concerned, these people are genuine heroes, fighting against a lobby masquerading as a government. A damn shame
