Queuing to get into Tescos petrol station in a Sunday afternoon took much more time than plugging my car in on Sunday night at the house and unplugging it with a full charge Monday morning to drive straight to work for the week
Well I'm at Tesco's PS most Tuesdays and Thursday around 7.45 and I have no problem getting fuel for my van in and out like a robbers dog.
 
Got and old Top Gear on here on U&Dave, they're sampling the use of electric cars, really exciting sitting around waiting for the Battery to charge, :mad:

Just what you need :oops:

I guess the charging process is a bit quicker these days?

Not for me, perish the thought.
I admit it's not as convenient as driving into a petrol station, filling up and driving out (preferably paying first), it requires a little bit of planning. It's easy for me because the sun is shining more often than not here and I'm retired, so no particular pressure to be somewhere. I will just plug in to my car charger for three hours in the middle of the day, three or four days a week, and that should be fine.

Yes they do.

We expect free universal healthcare, free education until 18 (most want it free until 21). We expect to work from the age of 18/ 21 and retire in our 60s with plenty of holidays, sick pay, maternity, paternity leave, we expect the state to keep us for the remaining 20 years of our life after retirement and to pay us extra for heating in the winter etc. and to pay for our travel, we expect the state to keep us in a nursing home if we’re not well enough, to pay for what we need if we can’t work for any reason, to keep our borders safe and secure, to sort out any mess caused by our obsession to buy more and more crap and to fill up huge tracts of land to dispose of it.

And we don’t want to pay tax.
No issue paying tax. The issue is the shit it gets used on (or doesn't) because it's sure as hell not working. Their latest ploy now is to blame global warming for the flooding, not the fact that these disgraceful councils never clean the drains.

Here's a start, cut all foreign aid until we sort ourselves out, and cull half the civil service - talk about wasted money!!
 
£6.25 for a can of lynx jn Tesco's. This country is absolutely fucked and we are having the absolute piss taken out of us on everything.
 
I was told by a senior manager at VW years ago that the move to electric vehicles was because China was their largest market. Nothing to do with the environment rather a commercial decision. In hindsight they should have continued to develop cleaner and more efficient diesel engines.
