Well done Disney. Wire free charging.
WiFi charging is not new. It was discovered by Tesla, (the 18th century scientist not the electric car company that pinched his name), patented by Faraday over 100 years ago. Advances now make it feasible. I predicted years ago that this principle would be developed into practical technology. Next step, no need for batteries! Power picked up from WiFi. Electric cars, no cables. Power picked up in the road. In years to come we'll laugh at these silly cables for charging cars for hours.

Cyclists can't win
DM headlines that Cyclists are anti-social, elite and reckless. I agree to an extent. I wish they would respect pedestrians and share. There should be a law that Cyclists can share pavements but have to give way to pedestrians. On the roads I'm terrified of motorists. They are in an a steel box, cyclists are mere soft flesh.
I daren't ride on the roads. We need separate cycle lanes and zones. Next day DM headlines a cyclist killed by a bus, bet she was being careful.
Another cyclist killed. It's dangerous on our roads. The only sensible realistic solution is separate cycleways. If shared with pedestrians then there must be a RULE giving pedestrians priority.

What point to marriage?
Now I've every sympathy with the lady who suddenly lost her long time partner and yes they were going to marry but the fact is they weren't married. If the court rules that non married couples can have the same rights as married couples then I just can't agree. Sort but what is the point of marriage?
It used to be the legal contract for two people to say we share everything for life. If you're not married the where do you draw the line. When do two people become a couple? A year, a month, a week, a day? Surely if you are really committed and want to share GET MARRIED.

Internet is harming our children
Dr MAX is right about pornography and its insidious effect on children. He doesn't go far enough. Internet pornography and computer games have a permanent effect on children. Looking at these images directly affects these young brains.
The eye is connected to the brain so watching these images crucially affects growing brains irreversibly forever. We must be very careful about what they watch at their tender age.

Subsidise home energy not multi-nationals
A fraction of the Nuclear subsidy could be given back to encourage folk to put solar panels on their homes to save money on their bills. The energy companies don't like it but its still pennies compared to CONSTRAINT payments that Wind Farms get to NOT generate electricity. When it’s too windy we can't use all the power so they are guaranteed a refund for actually NOT being able to sell their electricity. Now that is true Alice in Wonderland economics.

Wipe ISIS out?
We seem to be obsessed and terrified by terrorism but I ask, how many people a year are killed by terrorists? Donald Trump wants to eliminate ISIS. In reality terrorists don't kill as many as are killed by DRUGS. Why aren't we at war with the countries who produce drugs? Over 3000 recorded drug related deaths in 2025 and who knows what misery and crime is drug related? So why aren't our Governments fighting this with all their effort. We should be at WAR with the purveyors of drugs, the countries that supply the drugs. Yes, I suppose they don't condone it but say Columbia is where heroin etc originates for one. What about border police/ customs stopping it coming in?

Housing crisis solved?
I think that given the extortionate price of property in London and the south there was an obvious solution.
Anyone who has used a modern touring touring caravan knows how packed they are with all the mod cons for a couple in space barely 2x5metres. So why not use this technology to create affordable homes for homeless and single people or couples who want a compact home and spend a lot of time ofut?
You could build these in buildings like rooms in a hotel. Door inside in a corridor and a window out side where the front of the "van" would be. £20k each!
