🔋Thanks to significant R&D investment, average BEV range is now 236 miles, rising to nearer 300 for models launching this year. Some already on sale have maximum battery ranges in excess of 450 miles, more than 3 times the average distance drivers travel in a week

Do you remember when @GaryLineker said some of the dehumanising language used by the last Tory government about migrants and asylum seekers was reminiscent of Germany in the 30s. And the right were furious. Outrageous they screeched. Well, he wasn't wrong was he.

They took away our right to live, work, retire, study in Europe, made trade and travel much harder, trashed the EU and made the UK "irrelevant" (ex MI6 head) - all for what exactly ?
So many other reasons besides, but even if only for those⬆️please go & vote & kick them out !⬇️

BREAKING @guardian
Rishi Sunak was paid c£5 million in his 20s as partner in a hedge fund at the heart of 2008 RBS crash which taxpayers bailed out for £45.5 BILLION
🔹Sunak was partner in TCI hedge fund which aggressively pushed for the sale of ABN Amro Bank
🔹RBS-led consortium then bought ABN for £50bn in October 2007
🔹biggest takeover in banking history.
🔹A year later RBS crashed
🔹Taxpayer spent £45.5bn bailing out RBS
🔹TCI made £555 million profit 2007/08 largely due to ABN sale deal
🔹Sunak was one of 19 TCI partners who shared £93+ million of the TCI ABN share profit in 2008
🔹Sunak probably walked away with £5 million while we bailed out RBS
🔹Financial Services Authority said re bank crash “it is clear that the (RBS) acquisition (of ABN Amro) undoubtedly contributed significantly to RBS’s vulnerability”.

Anyone surprised? I think not. Well done BBC for keeping the story alive.
Secret papers seen by the BBC reveal the Post Office knew its defence was false before it fought sub-postmasters in court

Look people, stop sharing this recent footage of disgraced failed Tory @LeeAndersonMP_ calling #ReformUK leader @TiceRichard "a pound shop Nigel Farage"
It's embarrassing for them both - not to mention @Nigel_Farage
It just gets better and better: Disgraced failed Tory @LeeAndersonMP_ has joined Reform UK (a party unlikely to win seats but will strengthen Labour by limiting Tory wins
Note: Lee Anderson called Reform leader Richard Tice a "pound shop Nigel Farage"

Can anybody enlighten me? Are there any other jobs where you can bully people, trap a staff member in a room & expose yourself to them, then walk away with a six-week paid break & not be sacked or prosecuted? I've experienced something similar & this sh!t has me livid. 🤬

The UK Government is trying to hang this portrait of King Charles in every public building including schools.
The SNP rejected it and saved £8m that they can actually spend on education.
If you want it out of our schools RT.
