The government and media predominantly, with a small section of the people too.

They are basically as ubiquitous with 7,000 sites in the UK having Rapid or Ultra-Rapid chargers, compared to about 9,000 petrol stations. There’s 46,000 public charger locations if you include all types. They average 4 chargers per location.
In terms of speed, it all depends what you need. It’s rare you need to have a full charge when on a journey. You just need a bit to get you there, or get you home.
Sure if you stop for 100% every time it takes a long time, but that’s a dumb way to do it.

- Comment on Tommy Robinson meets Elon Musk’s father in Moscow 1 week ago:
It’s just a coincidence. They both happened to be there and just ran into each other. You’re on your holiday, seeing the sights of Moscow, and boom there’s old Tommy Robinson and there’s old Daddy Musk.
I mean, what are the chances of that happening?

- Comment on UK experiences ‘tropical night’ after hottest ever May day 3 weeks ago:
If you have multiple levels (e.g. a house) open a window downstairs and one upstairs. The rising hot air inside will draw in cooler air from outside, but the hot air needs to be able to escape. If you power that with a fan, that’s good too.

With 20 cars + swat you’ve just created a target rich environment.
- Comment on Tommy Robinson tells tens of thousands at London rally to prepare for ‘battle of Britain’ 4 weeks ago:
The polls only look like that because the rest of us are factionalized. Voter share puts them on a maximum of 28%. That leaves 72% of us who are voting elsewhere, and that’s without the non voters.
We need to unify around something, but let’s face it. It’s not Starmer.

- Comment on British Steel to Be Nationalised, Saving Thousands of Jobs 5 weeks ago:
So we’ve just bought a failing company? That doesn’t sound good.
So I get that steel making might be a strategic national capability that we need to maintain, but is the government going to put the necessary investment into it? They seem incapable of investing in anything.
- Comment on Downing Street rally asks ‘silent majority’ to fight antisemitism 5 weeks ago:
…but that’s the point. They don’t want to have to turn on Bebe because reasons they don’t want to talk about. So the I fallible strategy if to accuse anyone wanting to hold him accountable for his actions of anti-Semitism.
We all know this. They all know this. Anybody pulling this “trick” is not debating in good faith.

No, but it’s good to have hard data to back it up.
- Comment on Keir Starmer faces ‘judgment day’ as Mandelson vetting debacle grows 2 months ago:
Civil servants have a lot of control not over policy but over outcomes.
That’s a difference that matters only if the people at the top of the civil service have no opinions on what constitutes a desirable outcome. I would say that’s effectively impossible.
- Comment on Keir Starmer faces ‘judgment day’ as Mandelson vetting debacle grows 2 months ago:
Ciaran Martin, a former senior civil servant with past involvement in vetting work, who is a close friend of Robbins, told the BBC that the sacked official appeared to have been made a scapegoat.
He said vetting had been wrongly presented as a simple pass or fail, when it was instead a “risk assessment”, and that it was entirely standard for officials to decide whether the balance of risk was acceptable.
“There is no abuse of process, there is no failure of process. Not only is there no duty to disclose the details of a vetting case, there is a duty not to disclose them. The one thing you never do is tell ministers of any kind, because otherwise the vetting system would collapse,” he said.
I’m sorry…WHAT!!! How can civil servants hold that level of judgement. I’ve long thought that the civil service has too much power over policy, resulting in the Home Office and Foreign Office having minimal change in policy no matter who is Home/Foreign secretary.
If this is really the case then hopefully this is a catalyst for a change in how the civil service operates and where decision making really lies.

- Comment on Peers vote to ban pornography depicting sex acts between stepfamily members 2 months ago:
“I’m stuck step-bro” isn’t incest. They aren’t related by blood at all. That’s one of the reasons it’s a popular backstory.

Ofcom have a report stating exactly that. The OSA doesn’t work
- Comment on Peers vote to ban pornography depicting sex acts between stepfamily members 2 months ago:
I think it’s that they think “This is an easy vote winner. Nobody will object to this”.
Yes, I’ll object. You’re wasting your time and my money with this pointless paternalistic crap.
