Repost this Led @ByDonkeys film about Rees Mogg as often as you can 👌

Particularly my friends in
"North East Somerset and Hanham" new constituency

Get Jacob Rees Mogg out in 4 weeks time

I might get down there myself to see what's going on 😉

@106Euan Well said Euan !

Lot of negativity around EVs in the winter. But here’s the massive upside.

[Colin Walker @colinwalker79]

Bit late sharing this, but last week I did a podcast with @philippaforrest on the enviromental impact of #ElectricVehicles compared to petrol cars

If you're at a loose end and fancy a watch, here's the link

Sign and share: petition to stop @RishiSunak from commiting industrial suicide by suddenly pushing back the ban date for new petrol & diesel vehicle sales, jeopardising £billions in investment, >780,000 UK jobs and chances of keeping the planet habitable.

@106Euan @ecocars1 @EVPuzzle @KateFantom @raimonick @tillathenun @wire_brigade @bobbyllew April was my first ever full month of solar generation from a 5.1kWp south facing array of 13 panels - 519kWh, very pleased, especially considering how grey and miserable it’s been in Newcastle !

Lots of talk about air pollution and it seems a lot of disagreement about why poor air quality is such a big deal.

So, what are the health effects of air pollution? (Brace yourself, it's a difficult read but links to research included). 👇🧵

[Kate, Florence and James @KateFantom]

There’s a whole lot of FUD going around about EVs as the bottom drops out of the fossil fuel world. Here’s every place our fully electric MG5 has taken us over the last 15 months and 64k miles. I’ve never ran out, it’s never broken down and it’s saved us £200 pcm minimum.

10 years - almost to the day. And it's still not true!

More of these anti-noise radars please.
I've never understood why we allow motorbikes to make incredible amounts of noise in areas where thousands of people live.

[David Partington @ElecScotsman]

Well deserved award for a great EV-friendly garage !

I have just lost my wedding ring - in Buxton Derbyshire - just after giving a talk this afternoon - dropped I think on St John’s rd - if anyone finds it I would be so grateful - it is an old gold ring with a cross on the face. V embarrassed + grateful for RTs.

[Kate, Florence and James @KateFantom]

This is what England needs @grantshapps. This isn't new, it started years ago and now includes used EVs. Here, we have nothing. If you want people to drive EVs, help them on their way, they're not cheap!!!

For anyone in Scotland, fill your boots - https://t.co/t0Pocrssaq
