Nissan ARIYA anyone? 90kwH battery. I wonder how much it will cost.

Both USA and EU have subsidies for EV production. We are too small to go for it alone.

Sunak is the most able from to tory camp. He slowly steadies the deficit. Boris will forever be stuck to his zip wire and Truss still believes in fairies. I wonder what Boris and Truss will do if you give them a defibrillator.

Starmer is less likely to sell whatever left of public assets. That's a good enough reason for me to prefer his team.

The nhs is moving to a multi-tiered system. Already if you go private, you can be better treated at your local hospital than if you don't pay. Someone I know was in that situation, her insurance pays £100 a day for nhs hotel accommodation. My dentist charges some cost to the nhs, the rest is...

I bought a few of their EL-34 pentodes for my amplifiers back in those days.

the opposite. Government funding/participation is key in expanding supply side, therefore reduces pressure on market price. EU CAP: cheaper food, higher standard. Semiconductors demand is expanding for the foreseeable future. Governments have to step in.

the US needs to make sure that it has access to TMSC's 5nm technology. Only TMSC and Samsung have that technology. The US will give about $50 billions to semiconductor manufacturers, the EU does the same, spending about the same amount mainly in Germany and France to build the wafer fabs. China...

Their public debt per capita is much less than ours

We should invest less on houses and more in factories.

Nuclear generation is not cheap, it can't compete against wind, solar, hydro, geothermal and gas. This is even before the cost of decommissioning. our government has to top up their income with tax money. If we have any sense, we must invest in energy storage, gas and batteries.

SW bought his bike 3/4 years ago, so he's not riding an expensive bike. If I understand the story correctly, SW suffered an accident at work. He could have bought his bike with the money he's got from that.

Our government made a profit in Lloyd's and RBS shares since. The original problem was that any one of our big four banks could bring the whole of our fintech sector down if they were let to fail. That problem still is.

possibly. Saneagle said 'something like this', so don't take his formulae too rigidly. The controller is programmable, its algorithm varies with the manufacturer and model. In the main, if you are climbing a steep gradient in speed control mode, each time you increase the assist level, you'll...

what do you think if the Labour party wins the next election?

To force poorer people to work, you will have to remove their social safety net, remove their right to buy their council homes etc. Alternatively, you'll have to tax house ownership until a large enough chunk of investment is moved from housing to industrial. How about the poorer among the 10...

do you have any solution?

household budget is not all energy based though.

inflation is bound to our exchange rate, even if gas price hadn't hit the roof, the Pound dropped from $1.30 before covid to near parity 1.08 when Liz Truss was PM explains a large part of inflation. In France, energy price was capped at below 5% increase, the high borrowing still caused 6%...
