He wasnt the one making the claim, so can you back it up or not ?

I was merely quoting Rishi Sunak. If someone wants to challenge that, it’s up to them to provide the evidence not me.

I’m not playing these stupid games any more. It’s just trolling and someone should be calling it out.

Fat chance of that, unfortunately.

So no, you cannot back it up then.

The one playing stupid games is you, and yes, someone did call you out.

You're your own worst enemy here, Old Boy. If you want to quote Sunak, put his actual words in quotation marks with a link. Then people's beef will be with him and not you.

There's also some flawed logic on show here.

Some countries like the UK have had to do more than others to achieve their targets because they were in a far worse starting position.

Even today, France, for example still has less to do than the UK as some 88% of its energy is from zero emission sources.

The UK generates about 60% of its energy from zero emission sources so still needs to do more than France.

Understand Luton airport car park fire was ev . Have no idea but wonder if their are any checked figures, seems to be happening a lot at the moment. Had call today one went up near my house in BR , have a burnt lawn :shocked: think I will cancel my order at least for the moment. Really would like to get one , but catching fire while parked up is too much for me. Heard of laptops etc going up but a car

It is thought the fire started with a diesel-powered vehicle "and then that fire has quickly and rapidly spread", said Andrew Hopkinson, Bedfordshire's chief fire officer.

As I understand it, it was a hybrid. Range Rover.

So both reports are correct.
