@mpmwilko @RobertJenrick Well done. We all enjoyed it

[Damien Devlin @Damien_Devlin]

@JamieBonkiewicz @MichaelEMann Second only to Trump being asked about his favorite bible passage.

@EVCurveFuturist @QuentinDempster 4-5 touch on it but they’re more fun to drive!

[Damien Devlin @Damien_Devlin]

@EVCurveFuturist @robert_rylander I live there and have two EVs. 90% of new cars sold are EVs. Bit of a drop off in winter performance, but loads of chargers and they’re still way better.

[Damien Devlin @Damien_Devlin]

@Robingoldone @LyrebirdDream @Bunnings @craigkellyAFEE Why hasn’t that happened in Norway then where there are 12yr old EVs still on the road? 🤔

[Damien Devlin @Damien_Devlin]

@EVCurveFuturist @JaneCaro Better late than never

[Damien Devlin @Damien_Devlin]

@joelalain @Eppsorn Don’t worry, it isn’t true.

[Damien Devlin @Damien_Devlin]

@DaveThroup @Skoskii >90% in 🇳🇴 Enjoy it!

@TrulsBergNorge @oysteinbogen You’re repeating a Russian talking point that has been shown not to be true. They refused it because it would have meant capitulation and the end of freedom in Ukraine.

[Damien Devlin @Damien_Devlin]

@TrulsBergNorge @oysteinbogen No, they didn’t have a choice. Their leaders chose what the Ukrainian people wanted, which was not to capitulate and give up their freedom to Russia. If Russia invaded Norway, we’d be left with the same choice.

[Damien Devlin @Damien_Devlin]

@TrulsBergNorge @oysteinbogen Those 35,000 men came to take their country by force, so they only have themselves to blame. Ukraine has no choice

[Damien Devlin @Damien_Devlin]

@yarotrof Long term pain for Russia, but in the short term, is it possible this just pushes up prices and the hits the Russian oil companies but not the kremlin since they tax upon extraction, not sale?

[Damien Devlin @Damien_Devlin]

@FredrikHjelm4 Interesting idea. To support it, look at Norway, similar in many ways to Sweden but with loads of natural recourses which they (we) have turned into cash. All of which means there’s no pressure to create anything.

[Damien Devlin @Damien_Devlin]

@strategywoman I plan to visit!

[Damien Devlin @Damien_Devlin]

@Nagil_K @yarotrof @OzKaterji Was thinking the exact same!

[Damien Devlin @Damien_Devlin]

@front_ukrainian Yes

[Damien Devlin @Damien_Devlin]

@JohnCleese Of course

[Damien Devlin @Damien_Devlin]

@HardRockBet Ignorant

[Damien Devlin @Damien_Devlin]

@Gerashchenko_en Both heart warming and heartbreaking

[Damien Devlin @Damien_Devlin]

@HaraldRodney @PawlowskiMario With respect, it’s not the same.
