BBC Sell it off - they sold the PO

BBC - sell it OFF!

£5 billion in tax and none of them are elected or accountable. Your council gets cut to the bone yet BBC can carry on regardless - its a SCANDAL.

Why ENTERTAINMENT paid for by TAX ?

Surely big business should be sactioned for supporting terrorists?

Look at the gleaming array of super Toyotas in this ISIS propaganda. Will Toyota be sanctioned and maybe even Japan. I think in the end Multi National companies not Governments are behind Terrorism, its MONEY that talks, what was the Iraq war about? - OIL? Afganistan? - drugs - and hte Governments still lost.

Electric cars are NOT green

This is what I want to see, Hydrogen Cars,  but not pumping Hydrogen in, making electricity from water via solar power!

Surely a "Fuel Cell" that does this can be made?

Crazy - now conventional Electric cars are "rocketing" ! well maybe they would if they ran on ROCKET fuel!

Look  they get £5k from HMG (US!) but they're not cheap, even the lowly "VW i-up" (if were a Yorkshire car it would be the "aye-up" - I digress), is £25k! Who can afford these cars? yep RICH folk so why should they get £5k subsidy for a ridiculous car that only does <100 miles.="">
Crazy. Just Like Wind Turbines - Robin Hood -in-reverse - taking from poor folk (US) and giving to the rich!

Lets save every household £145

Lets all start watching catch-up TV and ditch the licence. WHy should we have an "entertainment Tax" to fund the BBC? Its appalling we pay £3.5billion for the likes of Jeremy Clarkson and co to earn millions for his tosh. Privatise the BBC I say and lets put the money to use in the NHS?

hooray, saved by the Tories

Maybe now the Tories Will end finally the absurd entertainment tax called the BBC?
PRIVATISE the BBC.

Electric Cars Are NOT GREEN

Electric Cars Are NOT GREEN

so, sales of electric/hybrid cars are picking up even though the subsidy is going and the price of fuel has come down.

but its not going to be good for the environment in the long term unless we get the technology right.

Why? - you ask.

Well, Physics says that the internal combustion engine is more efficient than generating electricity at a power station and "charging" your car with a wire.

As long as electricity is generated by fossil fuels its BAD for the environment and they are FINITE.

I won't explain the Physics but look at the 2nd law of thermodynamics and the Carnot Cycle.

What I want to see is 2 things

1. Electricity generated by non-fossil fuels
2. Charging done Wirelessly - then there is no range-anxiety

Ideally we could have an electric car powered by solar energy/and or hydrogen (water). The science exists to turn water in to Hydrogen and oxygen. Put the water in the car (free?), electricity converts the water to Hydrogen (oxygen is released) then when you want to move the Hydrogen is used to power the car - either electrically or by combustion - exhaust gas is Water.

This will work for town driving/commuting but it will be a long time before long distances can be covered by pure electric cars.

So what anyway?

Oh, the other thing - TAX.

What is HMG going to do without the Road Tax and fuel duty now no one buys fuel, or has a zero rated car?

Hmmm, yes you guessed they tax them another way, tax on electricity I bet or road charging.

Can't win!

Bedroom Tax Loophole

this is it - what a simple way to get around the bedroom Tax.

Knock your bedroom walls down!!

Turn your 3 bed in to a 2 bed - SIMPLES.

Problem solved and bigger rooms.

We did it when I was a student. I remember sharing a bedroom. We put the wardrobes down the middle so effectively partitioning off the room.

What stupid sanction by HMG?

Fair enough - only pay so much "Rent" benefit depending on your needs but don't penalise people for having lived in a "X" bedroom [proerty if they have no choice.

This is unfair to expect the poorest to bail out the rest, for Government's mismanagement of the economy while they still et individual Bankers get their obscene large bonuses subsidised by you and me!
