Motability is a benefit that's gone from one that was provided only for people with genuine mobility issues to one that's abused on an industrial scale. And I know that from personal experience and not from whatever the Daily Mail told me. That you brand anyone raising concerns about it as 'right wing' is quite pathetic.
Not everyone can charge at home and public charging rates can be over £1/kWh.
housing costs, wage stagnation, student debt, childcare costs, healthcare costs
There is little correlation with these factors and low birth rates. The most fertile countries are the poorest African countries, while Scandinavian nations which have comprehensive cradle-to-grave welfare and social programs have seen similar declines to the rest of the developed world.
> The pilot didn't know they were in the stall
Nonsense. The stall warning was blaring at them for much of the way down.
Stall recognition and recovery is one of the most fundamental skills that pilots are taught, whether they are flying gliders, cessnas or airliners. A complete lack of basic airmanship led to the loss of this aircraft.

It helps that Norway is an immensely rich country. It's sovereign wealth fund alone is worth over £2tn/$300k per citizen. They don't have to pander to corporate interests.
It never ceases to amaze me how many Germans are willing to defend their abject failure of an energy policy despite clear evidence to the contrary. That Germany has the fourth highest electricity costs in the world and still emits more CO2 than any major European economy is beyond dispute and not 'misinformation'.
Half a trillion euros could have bought nearly 40GW of clean, constant and reliable nuclear capacity.
We can argue over the number, at this very moment Germany is emitting 415g/kWh compared to France emitting 28g/kWh, but even 320g
A quick search reveals that Germany has the fourth highest domestic electricity costs in the world, and why wouldn't you include taxes as that's what is paying for Energiewende?
A reminder that Germany has spent over half a trillion Euros on Energiewende and still has one of the filthiest grids in Europe (>400g/kWh) and has among the highest electricity costs in the world. Over 50% renewables sounds great if you ignore the significant amount of brown coal and gas that they are still burning and that they have to import heavily during low renewable output.
If these figures are correct it means Britain would be absolutely booming had it not left the EU, far ahead of virtually all other EU countries. I seriously doubt that would have been the case.
New Dacia Sandero launching soon?
Brexit did not cause the spike in immigration, it was Boris Johnson removing restrictions and allowing almost unfettered migration into the country. One of many reasons why the Tories are now irrelevant.

Germany has squandered over half a trillion euros on Energiewende, and to show for it they have the second filthiest grid in Europe, has some of the highest electricity costs in the world and still relies on coal. Half a trillion euros could have bought dozens of gigawatts of clean and reliable nuclear capability.
I live half-way up the UK at about 54 degrees north. My panels produce virtually nothing between late October and mid February.
This year has been unusually good for solar production but it usually peaks when I don't need it. Will probably look into getting a battery, though despite how I keep hearing about how cheap they are now someone needs to tell the installers.
