Hydrogen cars ARE electric. The fuel cell is used to produce the electricity which drives the wheels, so its like driving around with a personal power station. But it needs thousands of filling stations which can cope with hydrogen storage and it needs a way to produce large amounts of hydrogen without using a vast amount of electricity to do so. To do that needs massive investment and the fossil fuel dinosaurs won't stump up the money as, with no viable alternative, they still think they rule the roost.

Bill Heinecke: "Crazy to give vaccines to tourists"

Which seems to have become "Crazy to give vaccines to tourists" So, is the right direction to be crazy? -
Freedom of movement allowed UK citizens to travel to mainland Europe and, if they wanted to, get a job there and stay for as long as they liked. No visa required, no work permit required, stay as long as you liked. Freedom of movement has already ended.

Nope. UK citizens can only stay in the Schengen area for a maximum of 90 days and then have to leave the Schengen area and not return for 3 months. It is one of the 'new found freedoms' apparently. Oh, and from November you'll need an ETIAS as well. https://www.gov.uk/visit-eu-switzerland-norway-iceland-liechtenstein/how-long-stay-without-visa

It is if you happen to want to stay for more than 90 days, as many pensioners used to in winter. Max stay is now 90 days in 180 day period. And no working without a permit.... None of this applied before the suicide pact.

Thaksin’s Homecoming, Arrest-Free Desire Questioned

I suppose next it'll be Gary Glitter expecting an arrest-free arrival when he next visits Cambodia. -
It was not partygate that brought down Johnson. It was the resignation of over 50 of his own ministers because of his protection of a sex pest (Chris Pincher) and the insistence that they should promote his lies, even when those lies had suddenly changed. And the leaders of the resignations were Sajid Javed (then Health Secretary) and Rishi Sunak (then Chancellor of the Exchequer). That led to the supremely wise neo-fascist tories then electing Liz Truss - the worst PM ever and who, with the help of an equally hopeless Chancellor, blew a £30bn hole in the economy which everyone is still paying for. In the case of Zahawi, he categorically stated that he was not under investigation when he was appointed Chancellor (by Johnson) and threatened to sue investigative reporters. That was, at the very least, a huge stretch of the imagination. His appointment seems to have been totally against the ministerial code and, as a result of that, his case has been referred to the (recently appointed) Ethics advisor by the PM.

Millions forced to skip meals as UK cost of living crisis deepens

Very helpful for the government as the unhealthy die early and saves them paying out pensions. More money for them and their cronies. Nine Bob notes are straighter than HMG. -

Don't see how converting to electric makes them safe, comfortable and with polite, well mannered drivers.. Is it very special electricity with magic powers? -

Up to 1967, my Grandma's house had no electricity - lighting by gas, hot water provided by the 'copper', outside toilet at the bottom of the garden. And that was in London, less than 2 miles from the Houses of Parliament. -

37 people die, 351 injured on first day of 7-day New Year travel period
mrfill replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
An odd decision as these figures are absolutely normal with the exception of deaths which is about two-thirds of normal. Better to do your riding around now and keep safe the rest of the year statistically if danger is your concern...
