  1. Imagine the heat that would have been generated in this thread if the fire had been attributable to an EV. It wasn’t and there’s still flame fanning and hot gasses coming out of the anti-EV corner.
  2. Remember Ian Duncan Smith arguing there was no need for Parliament to read the details of the withdrawal agreement. Seems someone took him up int absurdity.
  3. It wouldn’t have changed the outcome here. The fire started with a Diesel engines vehicle.
  4. Hakeem Jeffries has just laid it out. Gym Jordan 16 years in Congress and not a single bill to his name. Jeffries nails the problem the GOP are struggling with, it’s one of their own making: https://thehill.com/homenews/house/4255999-jeffries-jordan-democrats-wont-support-house-speaker/amp/
  5. You certainly don’t know what he’s said in private, not that your ignorance on the matter is a bar to you making stuff up. And edited out of context video evidence lol.
  6. A rightwing ‘leftist and Corbyn fixated troll’ who hasn’t yet twigged the current war is between Israel and Hamas.
  7. Deary me Johnny, Why didn’t I think of that…… No scratch that..I’ve not been on YouTube. Why did the Bedfordsire Fire Brigade state ‘Diesel’ rather than ‘Hybrid Diesel’… or even ‘Diesel Hybrid’. Perhaps A. They haven’t been at the YouTube short cut to being an expert on everything. B. It’s a conspiracy to hide the truth ( as you know it). C. They know what they are talking about and the vehicle was a bog standard Diesel. Pick the one that helps you avoid accepting you ran your mouth.
  8. Deary me Jonny: “The investigation into the cause of the fire continues, but it has been determined that the vehicle that first caught fire was a diesel car.” Refer link from our new member, who does know what he’s talking about, below: Your ‘basic knowledge of fire’ seems to have failed you Jonny, perhaps you need to watch a few more YouTube videos,
  9. They aren’t your friends. Nor have they been since that shameful debacle in Singapore.
  10. The seething mess known as Donald Trump is all over the place. Simebody get the ‘stage crook’ and hook him off before he does any more damage: https://www.reuters.com/world/trump-says-israels-netanyahu-was-not-prepared-hamas-attack-2023-10-12/
  11. Meanwhile Republicans departed Washington for the weekend. They obviously see no urgency in giving Gym the job.
  12. At the root of Trump’s remarks is the unblinking readiness to capitalize on the terrorist atrocities and the ensuing suffering as a means to attack one’s own political enemies and/or the dead horse that never ceases to be in need of a flogging. One can almost hear the cogs turning. From Trump, use it against Democrats. From others, use it against ‘Lefties, use it agains ‘The UN, use it against, Muslims, use it against whoever it is you have a disagreement with. Oh and of course, drape yourself in a cloak of effected fair mindedness and use it against the Jews. Non of these opportunists are adding anything at all useful to the discourse, they are simply capitalizing on what they see as an opportunity.
  13. Without the name you failed to take note of, the individual expressing the opinion could be anyone. They might even be someone who was invited to comment solely on the basis of the opinions they hold. Perhaps more moderate or nuanced opinions were not what the AJ program directors were looking for.
  14. Hamas gives up all pretense that it isn’t seeking a high Palestinian body count: https://www.theguardian.com/world/live/2023/oct/13/israel-hamas-war-live-updates-news-gaza-palestine-evacuations-military
  15. The current war is between Israel and Hamas. Not Israel and Palestine.
  16. I fail to see how Trump loosing the election would be bad for America. “How many people will it take to scupper the nation?” Trump didn’t have enough last time, it would be utter stupidity to give him a second go, because rest assured he will put an end to democracy in America if given another chance.
  17. I gave the parameters. Fuel in EV, including batteries and combustible materials in the vehicle. Fuel in CV including the automotive fuel and combustible materials in the vehicle. The case for fire in one being more serious than fire in the other needs to consider the characteristics of both fires. Higher temperatures and more difficult to extinguish are one set of characteristics. Quantity of heat, behavior of fuels in their liquid and gaseous phases are another set of characteristics.
  18. You need to get some better advice.
  19. And yet here we are all discussing it on an Internet forum. Don’t make the mistake of believing this is the only place it’s getting discussed or that all discussions are negative towards the ‘Just Stop Oil’ idea. Thanks for your contribution in keeping ‘Just Sop Oil’ in the public discourse.
  20. Perhaps he can now get back to doing nothing at all positive for Louisiana.
  21. The alternative is the Republicans put up a moderate who is willing to work with the Democrats in order to secure bipartisan support. ( Do you remember that?) The longer there is a Republican deadlock the more chance of Republican representatives from moderate districts forcing a compromise. We’ll then have Gaetz, who started this whole mess, bleating that Biden has taken his lunch money. Meanwhile ‘Shut down the Government’ has turned into ‘Shutdown the GOP’. Well done Gaetz, you’re star performer.
  22. And it didn’t go any higher than that: https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2023/oct/12/republican-steve-scalise-drops-out-of-house-speaker-race
