Trump said that because UK charges 20% VAT and that's unfair to the US so he is going to put 21% tariff on UK goods going to the USA. He's looking for a fight. Should we give it to him?
What do you think?
It's one known weakness of our system. They have to spend the money or return it to the Treasury. USAID was a soft target. I bet you musk wouldn't touch the Pentagon though.
I think battery technology in electric cars has sufficiently matured to be now safer than petrol engines but because of the high speed of development, there will be a lot of old and potentially unsafe batteries in use for 10 more years. There will still be cases like Mercedes recalling their...
there are a few Teslas with more than 1 million miles on the same battery.
Batteries can last a long time, especially when used regularly and not abused. One lady customer of mine has reported that her 12 year old battery on her Woosh Aspen has just died. The Aspen has 10A Lishui controller...
The MG Windsor has a lifetime guaranteed battery. Many EVs sold in China also have lifetime guaranteed batteries. New generation of LFP batteries are good for up to 20,000 charging cycles. Batteries are pretty good now if your car has LFP.
Central banks controls only supply of narrow money (M1, M2), not broad money (M3, M4). Anyway, it's not the job of central banks to find out what you spend your money on. The police may though if they investigate you.
from this year, batteries are mostly fixed. Training mechanics for the new EV age may take a lot longer. I watched a video where the guy replaced a high voltage electronic fuse that connects the battery pack to the high voltage power circuit. The part costs about £100 new from the same main...
My previous comment was about what Ursula Von der Lyen said about digital Europe.
Lagarde talked about creating a payment mechanism to run parallel to the normal Euro. All what that means is transfers can be directly from wallet to wallet instead of via a bank account. You don't have to use a...
His problem is unfortunately not uncommon. My gardener bought an electric Peugeot 2 years ago. He took his EV to England on his car's maiden voyage. It developed an intermmittent fault. He wasted nearly a year for it to be sorted out between Peugeot in France and its UK dealer.
The fault on the...
Biden seems to suffer from repeated mini-strokes, Harris got given so much money that made her looking like she was buying votes instead of winning them.
USA is seeing the rise of plutocracy and oligarchy. The invention of digital coins made people feel richer than they are, and lazier. After...
You already know that she does not mean replacing the euro with bitcoin, right? or dogecoin or trumpcoin. She means digitalise administration, most of EU administration is already on the net.
My uni was a hot place for all sorts of militants, which is normal for the time, just google May 1968. I was only interested in the women, not their politics.
I think the Kclamber cassette torque sensor has resolved that. I have it on my full sus bike.
There is no way that it can get wet in normal usage.

Her case was different in the sense that she complained about lack of action from the uni for her protection against bullies. The court decided that the uni did not fail her. For the sake of clarity, I think we need a link to James' case. Was he bullied by other students? Students usually sign...
