The antithesis of this is regular 30 second sound bites throughout the day depending on whatever agenda the media is spinning at the time. In the UK, almost every radio station runs these regular news bulletins and they are all indistinguis

Well, 2 million plus have signed the petition and 90% of those people will go along with the scheme when it is introduced - because it will be convenient to do so. Tell me how you plan to survive living off-grid whilst standing firm against

Renewables in the UK are intermittent, all at once at not at all. We also have a crazy scenario where we have so much wind power at times that it has to be turned off because the grid can't handle the load and battery storage is scarce

Well, yes, there is the obvious stuff although I could say opening windows is not entirely simple unless I'm fully opening or closing. Old-school radios were a lot more user-friendly with preset station buttons and a tactile volume con

Physical volume adjustment buttons on the steering wheel are about the only control I feel comfortable using whilst the car is moving. Anything more complex with a touch-screen interface is an accident waiting to happen.

You are on to something here. I have started driving a small car in the UK (Ford Fiesta) and have discovered it's a magnet for the road rage people (around 50% of drivers here). Firstly, I never back down and will come to a complete st
