    Prices of the electricity we use to charge

    Touch wood I have never had an accident. Every modern car is far safer for the occupants than a Morris Minor with air bags, seat belts, decent brakes, power steering etc As noted earlier modern cars are also far heavier but far , far safer.

    Prices of the electricity we use to charge

    I’m doing my bit for the environment by not replacing my car. In France I save the planet by running it on E85 (85% bioethanol). I’ve had it for 13 years & in all that time I have never run over any proles although a full grown fallow deer came off worst a few months ago without leaving a mark...

    My 2001 P38 Range Rover has a 4.6litre V8 & weighs two tons. In the event of an accident I would much prefer to be sat in my Range Rover than one of those Moggies.

    I saw many people who died from COVID-19. I didn't see any who died from influenza. Reduction in influenza to near zero proves that lockdowns work for influenza. The lockdowns prevented a catastrophic number of people falling ill with COVID-19 all at the same time.

    Let me explain it for you. The logic is very simple. SARS-CoV-2 is many times more infectious than influenza. Lockdowns are very effective as proven by the marked decrease in influenza cases. Without lockdowns there would have been many more times the number of COVID-19 infections plus the...

    Wisper Wisper Bike rack cracked

    I agree that after five years this isn't a warranty issue but it's pretty poor that Wisper cannot sell you a replacement rack. It looks like your bike is a Wisper 905 which is a current model. Surely they should have spares?

    It does as even if the sale is legit they are trying to pretend it's a business to business transaction to which consumer rights do not apply.

    Immigrants eating pets is a familiar racist trope not a million miles from those urban myths about Indian restaurants & Chinese takeaways serving up cats or rats.

    That's a report from over ten years ago of several served cats heads found in a bag. It doesn't support your assertion that "many Chinese restaurants have been prosecuted for such things as having cat and dog pelts in their bins". As you cannot produce any evidence for your startling claim my...

    It was not only laughable but she laughed at him when he came out with this rambling racist nonsense, which angered him even more. BTW Has anyone ever seen Trump laugh? He seems to alternate between smirking & scowling but unlike Harris doesn't reveal normal emotions.

    Battery Fires

    Does anyone remember those expanded polystyrene ceiling tiles that were all the fashion in the seventies that when ignited dropped gobs of napalm? It took quite a few years before those formulated without fire retardant were banned.

    Battery Fires

    There are many factors contributing to the fall in fire deaths. Non-flammable materials, materials that don't produce poisonous smoke etc & especially not forgetting oven chips (when did you last hear of a fire caused by a chip pan?).

    I'm not interested in any of your wider points because you are dishonest. Why can't you be honest enough to admit that what you wrote is untrue? This is untrue & you should admit that it's untrue "PCSOs who stood and watched two children in a pond a few feet deep drowning, while OAP fishermen...

    @Ghost1951 You said "PCSOs who stood and watched two children in a pond a few feet deep drowning, while OAP fishermen waded in and fished out one of them. The other drowned." The is a LIE. It's not what happened at all. Why do you find it impossible to admit that this is an untruth?

    I'm not the one pushing lies to support my thesis that there is an obsession with health and safety in the public sector. I just read the news reports & saw hat I had been lied to by @Ghost1951
