    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Exactly the same as my stance has always been, not believing in herd immunity while against compulsory blanket measures by a central authority. Decide all preventative measures locally according to local circumstances, incorporating flexibility for individual personal circumstances...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Absolutely, the British electorate were not putty minded fools manipulated by Cambridge Analytica. As I knew, they were just fools with poor judgement, and they still are. A poll has just been held in several countries asking the public how many have died from Covid-19. In Britain those...

    Sensible more like. He's probably better served by continuing his own one sided debate with himself via Twitter and certain media, since that's where he has most contact with the voters. .

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I've just learnt that of the circa 19,000 fines issued for breaking Covid regulations, some half have not been paid, chiefly because the recipients are point blank refusing to pay. The conflict that many forecast could occur over these regulations I can see happening if enforcement is attempted. .

    I know, but I was only counting the ones with major fishing interests that affect us in any way. Half of those are inconsequential as far as we are concerned. .

    Tesla announce a major battery advance

    Absolutely David, I've enjoyed my last two and a half driving years like no others in the 70 years since I first drove, all due to my all electric latest Nissan Leaf. There's no way I go back to i.c engines again, gassing and deafening cyclists and pedestrians. I imagine that Volvo-Geely...

    Tesla announce a major battery advance

    They're still good at hype and being American they always will be. But it's undeniable they have led the market with e-car advancement, just as they are the only private company to achieve a space vehicle safe for humans, servicing the space station. .

    Trouble is the lockdown measures don't work either. Take all those Northern English areas. They didn't have the 2.5 times early hit that London took, perhaps through taking the government advice more, but their rates as a result have inevitably been rising since. So the government imposed...

    Largely the ones who are still going to die of Covid-19 anyway in the near future. They are still dying if you hadn't noticed, and will continue to if and until there's an effective vaccine and if and until there's 7.5 billion doses delivered. Years away so most will die meanwhile. .
