I would assume the generators would be placed around the national grid ?

Cheers.

Surely battery's can't replace diesel engines on tankers and large ships.

India alone has 253 million vehicles.no way are they going to go electric..

It's an unrealistic thing to think GB can faze out fossil run engines..

The leader of the green party over here suggested, that one car per village would  be more than enough, a communal car kinda set up

This is coming from the man, who did a photo shoot on a bicycle, promoting green energy, then puts it in the back of his range rover. 

Couldn't make it up

We used to have community cars on the estate I grew up on, they were unregistered vehicles usually parked in the pub car park and used to go out robbing by anybody in the no that needed them

I think because I drew on the Churchillian ability to overcome the seemingly impossible (in the case of electric cars tiny f***ing mole hill problems), Max reminded me that even Churchill f****d up. I think it's a bit of a sideways leap but fair all the same.

Which reminds me, I quite liked the portrayal of Winston in The Crown.

Half the village doesn't talk to each other here, LOL,  couldn't imagine what could go wrong .

This is also the same person, who fell asleep in a meeting in the dáil, (parliament) about raising the minimum wage in the, just to wake up to vote no.

A builder lad was saying to me the other day that new building regs don’t allow chimneys on new houses ?

Said that is why people are not building, too many regs and it’s too expensive to follow them?

Dont know how true that is
