Everyone accepts that you have to pay some tax but when a politician decides that they are going to milk you to fund their spending programmes that when people will leave Jeremy Corbyn’s £48B manifesto plan Labour leader wants to raise taxes for higher earners to fund education and re-nationalization plans. https://www.politico.eu/article/jeremy-corbyns-48bn-manifesto-plan/ I have seen thousands of posts on this forum with people complaining about a B500 tax loaded onto international airfares and thousands of posts about how unfair that foreigners are expected to pay more at National Parks in Thailand With Both National Parks and international airfares people have a choice don't go to the parks or for international airfares exit the country via a land border and catch a flight in a different country

There are no government care homes what you have is private care homes that either accept local council funded residents or self funding residents costs for a residential care home ranges from £900-1600 per week and nursing residential homes range from £1500-2500 per week depending on location increasing care home costs = larger council tax to fund the residents that are council funded. some care homes refused to accept local council funded residents - payments are slow some care homes have a 3 year waiting list and can pick and choose who they accept

The cargo ship was transporting 2,857 cars from Bremen, Germany to Port Said, Egypt, 25 of which were electric cars. It was one of the electric cars that caught fire, a spokesperson for the coastguard told Reuters. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-12338705/One-sailor-dead-23-evacuated-burning-18-500-tonne-cargo-ship-carrying-3-000-cars-North-Sea-Holland-electric-vehicle-caught-fire.html

Its Good to see that your finally admitting that your EV isn't as green as you like to make out

MG or SAIC cars not sold in USA as to pricing website it lists cars for sale in Thailand that will never be imported and ignores any chinese brands that are currently on sale in Thailand not everything posted on the internet is correct and MG Cars USA not found SAIC Cars USA not found reviews of MG cars tested in the USA not found

You might say silly but my post in factual correct EV's are totally reliant on petrochemical by products

I didn't say that just pointing out that while EV's may be a little greener than ICE vehicles they still require a large number of petrochemical by products

Remove all the petrochemical by products from EV's and what are you left with no glass, no dashboard, no seats, no carpets, no tyres. no rims, no steering wheel, no plastics, no rubber, no seat frames, no mirrors, no paint

Wasn't aware that anyone reading this thread was expected to be a mind reader and when you post "Nottingham University report I linked above" what you meant was refer to another post i made earlier

You keep referring to a "Nottingham University report I linked above". but in your posts but don't provide a link as stated

Clearly you are unable or unwilling to provide a link that you refer to No problems

Why underline words when the underline has no meaning You underline the words care sector and state you have provided a link and then no link is provided

No link provided

My reply was to your original post which isn't relevant in relation to the ops post as the ops post is related to domiciliary carers there are people that provide social care in people homes

And when you click on the link it list all the cars available for sale and the Nissan Leaf is not listed and the link I posted yes its 1 year old but the clue was in the title Final Call

Nissan is well known for not updating their English web pages you can't order new Nissan leaf on their Thai web page According to this article there was a total of 40 Nissan leaf cars available for sale last July 2022 Final Call ! Nissan LEAF 100% electric car: 959,000 baht (imported CBU) | 311 km. distance (NEDC) https://autolifethailand.tv/final-call-nissan-leaf-ev-bev-959000/

This article is about domiciliary carers they don't work in care homes also another clue The car she had been promised to travel between clients did not materialise, so she had to walk to appointments Not something that would be required by someone working in a care home

Its strange that your comparing MG ZS EV 2022 model instead of the MG ZS EV 2019 44.5 kWh. battery or the new version of the Nissan Leaf 62 kWh. battery
