#ripoffbritain #netzero In China the VW id3 if $16,600 (£14,500) In the UK it's over £35k. No wonder the EV revolution has taken off on China and not the UK.

There's definitely something wrong when the price of a #Tesla 3 is now $30,000 or less in both the #US and China whilst in the UK its still over $50,000 equivalent. Both nations offering subsidies. What happened to subsidies to encourage people to change to #evs in the #UK?

Apparently there is a UK wide #trainstrike tomorrow which will essentially cripple the tail network but there seems no mention of it in the media. Gvt directive at work here?

All this talk about Chinese EVs, that's the ones real people can actually afford, harming British EV manufacturers. Newsflash. There aren't any EVs made in the UK apart from the Nissan Leaf. Jaguars, made in Austria. Mini EVs, to come from China.

What sort of crazy world are we living in when the UK govt has spent £240m on their Rwanda 'resettlent' scheme with no one resettled and an 'initial capacity_ of 200 a year??? Presumably we will be tied into a retainer should this all actually happen.

Why don't we have this in #scotland NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde I asked my GP surgery for a Health MOT as I'm over a certain age and they responded like I was a crazy person. Eventually relenting to offer a blood test. Not good enough if we are really invested in #preventitivemedicine

Anyone who doesn't think that it's merely a coincidence that Macdonald's experienced a global outtage yesterday and Sainsbury's today coincided with the Russian election clearly is misguided.

#Rwanda is a performatively cruel, unworkable and massively expensive policy. “Send them back” was the slogan of the National Front of my childhood. It’s now law. A shameful day for this country

Can someone explain how this '#Rwanda policy' works? The #UK sends folks to Rwanda. They're accommodated, fed, given money, for how long? I don't know much about Rwanda but if they're meant to get jobs won't they displace the local population?

A shameful snub of those veterans who attended the #DDay80 commemoration event by #rishisunack for a TV debate. The man had no shame.

#conservativelies Sadly even though the £2000 extra tax claim may be untrue it's now lodged in people minds so job well done to #Sunack
