Brilliant - must look into that.

I always liked NiFe cells. The trailer for the Swedish Railcar at the NVR was full of them.

Here, as well.

I went out to the garden first thing after feeding my daughter, and pulled up most of the decent rhubarb before the weather gets any ideas about spoiling it.

I'm on the edge of the Lancashire side of the Pennines. The hilltops've had a good dusting.

Yes there is. Looks like your shithole is too foetid for snow to settle.

I'm not saying it's cold here, but my windscreen washers were frozen this morning.

It was 23C in the park on Monday evening.

I'd have thought your Volvo would have had heated washer jets, MM? My last three BMWs did...

What a surprise!

The Global Warming Policy Foundation, a climate sceptic thinktank, has been reported to the Charity Commission by the Green MP Caroline Lucas and Extinction Rebellion.

The move comes after the Guardian revealed that the group received funding from fossil fuel interests.

The thinktank has charitable status, but climate campaigners say the questions about its funding mean it should be stripped of this.

In a letter to the Charity Commission, the signatories including the writers Irvine Welsh and Zadie Smith say the GWPF is “not a charity, but a fossil fuel lobby group”...

This shit confuses me.
Last year the government made a big play of banning charities like the National Trust and RNLI from engaging in campaigning.
How is it that the Tufton Street mafia and other government aligned thinktanks aren't implicated?

It's another irregular verb.

I'm showing the big shots that people power works in this day and age.

You're part of a grassroots group of concerned citizens.

They're part of a politically motivated Twitter mob.

Anyone remember COP?

Remember when it was blamed for Tories dropping in the polls, around the time or just after Paterson had given Labour its first lead in a while, I don’t think they’ve been behind since.

Here's an actual Climate scientist responding to Matthew Todd. it's a clever video they've taken a load of clips out of context and spliced them together of course this gets load of retweets and clicks.
