@ClarksonsFarm1 @bogdanade52 I remember the severe winter of 62/63 when, as a 12-year old, I (and pals) walked through a foot (at least) of snow to get to school. Great fun… especially at break time when snowballs would fly….😁

@chatswithem Very sensible, common-sense post. People are starting to realise that Net Zero is nonsense - a scam. Thank you 🙏

[Dave Jones 🇬🇧 @dljoldboy]

@rebeccabutlerm2 You’re not real…. A Barrister? Based on your 4 billion years comment, you may be a Barrista…. And using the term “Climate deniers” shows that you just want to shutdown debate. CC is a SCAM…. And “Net zero” policies are madness.
Night….UTV

Rapeseed oil lubricated the steam engines of the Industrial Revolution.

It lit the lighthouses. It kept the train lamps burning before gas arrived. It was burned in the early Canadian lighthouses, cheaper than whale oil.

Then petrochemicals arrived and the machinery moved on. Nobody needed it anymore. Rapeseed had done its industrial duty.

The FDA formally banned it for human consumption in 1956. Erucic acid. Toxic to the heart in animal studies. The scientists were fairly clear about this.

In the 1970s, Canadian plant breeders reduced the erucic acid content and needed a new name, because "rapeseed" was both unglamorous and commercially lethal. They called it "canola." Can-ada. O-il. L-ow-acid. A portmanteau built in a marketing meeting. In Britain they sidestep the problem by calling it "vegetable oil" and printing a picture of a sunflower on the bottle.

So where are we now. On the supermarket shelf, the oil that greased the Industrial Revolution is bottled in amber plastic with a green leaf on the label and a "heart healthy" claim on the front.

The machinery it once lubricated has been replaced by diesel engines and electric motors. The stuff itself has been replaced on your dinner plate by nothing, because apparently once you're in, you're in.

Lamp oil. Machine lubricant. Banned by regulators. Rebranded. Repositioned. Drizzled on salads and baked into supermarket bread and ladled into hospital canteen fryers.

Someone at some point made a series of decisions about what belongs on a dinner table and what belongs in an engine room, and got them completely the wrong way round.

The lighthouse still stands. You can visit it. It runs on electricity now.

@JoeLayton96 @AmericaRecharge 😂 funniest thing I’ve seen for ages 👏

[Dave Jones 🇬🇧 @dljoldboy]

@chatswithem @ZackPolanski Absolutely 100% correct…. I’ve also done the maths - as I’m sure many others have.
More & more (sane) people are realising that Mad-Dog Miliband has an agenda & it’s not in the interests of ordinary citizens.
But who’s behind it all, pulling strings? Bliar, Fabians, Corporates?

[Dave Jones 🇬🇧 @dljoldboy]

@AmericaRecharge Noooooo

[Dave Jones 🇬🇧 @dljoldboy]

@RickDanna2 @PatsyDiabetes Not a joke…. It was a planned scam and worth Billions of $ profit for Big Pharma. A test-run to see how easy it was to control the masses using Fear….

@avfcbreaking Capacity is about 42,500. Even so, Clubs should receive at least 15,000 each. How are they going to attract 12,500 Corporate neutrals? The game won’t have that much interest outside the two Clubs….

[Dave Jones 🇬🇧 @dljoldboy]

@VillaTil1Die @DeadlineDayLive Have AVFC now become a feeder club? Do we want to keep our best players? His young head may have been turned at the England camp but we should build a great team around our quality - and Rogers IS quality

[Dave Jones 🇬🇧 @dljoldboy]

@w1ckzy0 @VillaTil1Die @DeadlineDayLive Agreed. So why would AVFC sell its best players…. We’re not a “feeder club”…ffs

[Dave Jones 🇬🇧 @dljoldboy]

@VillaTil1Die Next season “SCR”allows Clubs to spend 85% of revenue. Top 4/5 PL clubs income of £700m+. Ours rose to £378m (+£100m y/o/y) but still means that top 4/5 have an extra £250m to spend. Not a level playing field.
Every club should have same max transfer & wage limit

@decorativeartt Starmer is a puppet…. Like most of them…. So who’s in charge,,,,

[Dave Jones 🇬🇧 @dljoldboy]

@Multiminparvoj @RafHM It’s not just Starmer…. Tories were almost as bad. They are all actors. Just theatre. But exactly who’s pulling the strings? Sunak called an election in mid 2024 when poll ratings showed that they would lose heavily…. Maybe he was told to hand over the wrecking ball….

[Dave Jones 🇬🇧 @dljoldboy]

@ABridgen Sir: I recently had the honour to shake your hand in B’ham. I’ve just listened to your 90 min Liam Tuffs interview & I’m even more impressed by your frankness & honesty. I implore everyone to listen to it. I’m angry that MPs are silent. You are a hero of the people.

[Dave Jones 🇬🇧 @dljoldboy]

@ThreeUK You just sent a pathetic email saying that you’re going to be more transparent by removing %age increases & showing only actual £ nbr. My monthly bill of £7.44 increases by £1.90. This is a 25% increase. You obviously assume that your customers are stupid. I’m switching

[Dave Jones 🇬🇧 @dljoldboy]

@Nanaakua1 Lovely to see you and your fantastic family on GBNEWS tonight. Your lad looks just like my wonderful grandson (who lives in Dominica). Peace, love, freedom & happiness to you all x

[Dave Jones 🇬🇧 @dljoldboy]

@UKLabour . How brazen can Starmer be when he says: he’s about to deliver the 2024 manifesto. Here’s what wasn’t in his manifesto: Digital ID, Chagos “deal”; Scrapping elections; “limiting” jury trials; Abortion allowed up to birth; censorship…. No wonder his ratings are so low

[Dave Jones 🇬🇧 @dljoldboy]

@JChimirie66677 David Icke made a great point: “ When the people fear their Govt, that’s Tyranny…. When the Govt fear the people, that’s Democracy”….. 👏👏👏

[Dave Jones 🇬🇧 @dljoldboy]

@JChimirie66677 Saw Andrew Bridgen in B’ham today. He said if HMG can “delay or cancel” Council & Mayoral elections, why wouldn’t they do same for a GE. All they need is to invent an excuse - probably a “National Emergency”. Maybe war….🤦‍♂️
