Randahl FinkIn 12 days, the Hungarians will get rid of Orbán.
In 218 days, the Americans will retake Congress and pave the way for the impeachment of Trump.
2026 will be awesome.

It's a complex problem, and I was a bit too harsh in my reply. I'm a 'greenie' myself, but simply haven't blindly swallowed the EV as being the zero carbon solution, in its current form.
Too many I know have bought brand new EVs and drive more than they used too, feeling guilt free.
I guess its the lack of understanding EVs' full lifecycle that irks me.

@kentparkstreet1 @aj As always …
@kentparkstreet1 I agree. It's an ass faced reaction by government.
Instead of making public transport more available and reliable for the majority over the decades, they pander to the regular petrol users. Cos yeah, life is tough when you have to decide between food on your table or food for your SUV (I exaggerate 😉).

Kent ParkstreetIt’s amusing that Labor politicians have this privileged way of thinking.
“The schmucks who use it every day can eat a bag of dicks, but those unaccustomed to public transport will require a softer cushion to ease their pain.”
EF@EF @urlyman You're so right! The whole EV thing is greenwashing to a huge extent.
On average, an EV takes 10 yrs of use to 'break even' in its carbon footprint, taking into consideration its entire cradle to grave lifespan.
Teslas have about a 10 yr lifespan (cheaply made, 10 yr design fail), sorry greenies who think they're reducing their carbon footprint.
Other brands' EVs may do better, good advances are being made. The well maintained older ICE car still has a smaller carbon footprint.

So good!
Glad Minns didn't intervene beyond his 'crazy' comment.
Lucky those who attended her sessions in Newcastle, and those who will see her in Sydney 🍉💚
The grain for your loaf of bread was grown and delivered a long time ago, same for the flour being milled and delivered.
The only plausible increase in cost can be the delivery to the shop, which can’t be more than a few cents per loaf.
