The RAC survey fo the government found that 50% of all households nationally can have a home fast charge point. That's more than enough for a very long time since it will take ages to replace half of our over 30 million cars. In London only a quarter of all properties can have a home charge...

Yes that is wrong, we could cope with at least 30% of all cars charging overnight right now, so 40% by 2030 will be no problem. Remember most of the demand is during the night when there's a huge surplus of available current. ICE cars do most of their filling up by day during driving. E-cars...

It's more to do with the market demand being so far in excess of supply at present, meaning they can concentrate on the high end premium price market. Why sell cheaply when there's a long waiting list for one? .

So not true, there already is, £1 billion from BP Pulse alone. Clearly even Auto Trader aren't keeping up with events, or perhaps have a vested interest in putting the boot in to e-cars. The scale of rapid charging expansion is already beyond what will be needed over the next three years as...

You are so totally wrong and also very badly informed on the current situation regarding both e-cars and charging. .

That's SEAT's version of the VW e-UP, claimed 150 plus in Summer which they can easily do with their new larger battery 35 kW/h battery, but down to about 110 lowest in the coldest weather. Which is fine since it's a little town car not meant for long journeys., though it can manage the odd...

Indeed, and I've added Ireland by an edit to my post. .

That is already happening I'm pleased to say, and e-car prices have been dropping sharply in relative terms, though the government reducing grants hasn't helped. Within five years ICE car prices will be rising as their production diminishes. .

It not only can happen, it already is and will continue to happen rapidly. Yes there will be big changes, just as there were when cars first appeared. But now as then, people will immediately adjust and get used to them as they always do. Over the next ten years you'll see how half the...

You must get up to date, many of the current models can do well over 150 miles for sport etc., buy the right one and it can even be over 300 miles, even after allowing for range exaggeration. So yiu won't have to charge exacty at Filey. That isn't true. A lot of lies were published on this...

You are such a chump on this, deluded and completely out of touch with reality. A number of major car makers won't even be releasing new ICE cars in two to four years time and have already said so. Peugeot by 2023. JLR not even making any ICE vehicles after 2025. VW planning for 70% e-car...

Since I've always wanted an e-car from decades before there were any since I knew how superior they were back at the 1900s, clearly that isn't true Be realistic, how many drive to Barra or the South of France? As I've just shown you, for the great majority e-cars are very convenient and...

What utter nonsense! Today's pure e-cars work for most of us. Average annual mileage of male drivers is 9000 miles, equal to 173 miles a week or about one or two charges of today's e-cars. Average annual mileage of female drivers is 5500 miles, equal to 106 miles a week or less than one...

Bias based on relevance and fact is sensible, bias based an irrelevance and falsehood isn't. A quoted but unsupported 20% returning to ICE in the USA with its very long distances has no relevance whatsoever to us, so why post it? Especially your raising it as a reply to a completely different...

That's being silly and showing your bigotry on this subject. Most of what the Guardian publishes are quotes direct from Barnier who makes perfect sense. He says what I so often said in the last four years: “I do wonder what, until now, has prevented the UK from becoming ‘Global Britain’...

The first two are old French of course. Just found a reference to the "i" in glazier being due to influence from words ending in yer in Middle English, as in the bowyer and lawyer you mentioned. .

To repeat from my above edit: Weird, we don't have Riding, Ridier; Bricklaying , Bricklayier; so why Glazing, Glazier? It is an oddity. .

For some odd reason the tradesmans name has an "i" in it: Glazier, a person whose trade is fitting glass into windows and doors. Weird, we don't have Riding, Ridier; Bricklaying , Bricklayier; so why Glazing, Glazier? .

Thanks, I honestly didn't know, not being an app user, especially after the wholly negative experiences with the surgery contact app from AT Medical. .

Indeed, they are something Boris Johnson never is, they are always principled. .
