Imagine showing a petrol engine to someone who had only known electric vehicles, and trying to convince them to switch to petrol. No-one would choose the dirty, noisy, less efficient, more expensive vehicle. This isn't 1910, hostage to gender insecurity. We can just choose the better tech.

With all the noise being made about the US/Russia peace plan the admin is trying to foist on Ukraine, it’s important to understand why the full-court press is happening right now. Why Orban is attempting to speak for the EU…

Most Irish politicians ignore the massive costs of our car-centric transport system, doubling down on cars as a 'win' for society. We all pay for this.

Meanwhile, investment in active travel keeps shrinking, and the rollout of the little infrastructure we do get crawls along at a snail’s pace.
