I expect adding road tax to my EV since last year, was inevitable, the 'sponsors' who have been buying influence for decades were probably demanding another tax cut...
Voters haven't been represented for a very long time.

Assessment of having a 5 yr old EV:
I bought my EV to get answers to questions
To stop thinking about the depreciation due to slow charging and range, I thing these are positive:
Unlikely to catch fire (no fast charge)
Not going to lose more than I paid.
Could be ideal if charged overnight.

I went to a cat rescue place today.
I saw these!
Unfortunately the cats can't choose their staff!

Has anyone created a list of countries who do have renewable energy, but prevent prices lowering for consumers?
I'm guessing it will show which countries are under the control of the fossil fuel industry...
#renewables = #profits NOT savings.
I'm sure of one country...

These are the smallest 'street cats' I have found, I obviously offered them nibbles/cat stick, but I wished I could do more. In the few minutes I was there, I wasn't sure if there was an 'parent' nearby. Fortunately the weather was still over 24C.

The wild pigs in Marmaris are like night patrols. In the middle of the night, when the streets are quiet, they walk around finding anything tasty. I offered them apples, but they stole the cat food as well!

I agree with Robin Williams, that all politicians should wear badges showing their sponsors, then voters will know who they represent. It certainly hasn't been voters, for decades!
Has anyone compiled a league table showing how the sponsors have bought power?
Names on the 'rich list' are clues.

I just noticed that some of my photos of furrends I met in Crete didn't upload with my post. So I am trying again for this #caturday #cat #cats #blackcats #tabbycats #panfur

Last year I had so many questions about EVs, and couldn't find answers. I had an idea to buy a 3 year old small van, added what I would need to stay in the van at a campsite, as overnight alternative to a tent or caravan.
I have answered many questions, but have more.
For example:

Can someone please explain the system that charges the 12V battery in an EV?
I bought a Renault Kangoo EV early last year, when it was 3 years old. Now I discovered that because traction batteries have improved so fast, the value of an EV with under 100 miles range and slow charging is awful.

I created a "cafe" for the hedgehogs that come into my garden, and watched them by cctv camera recordings.
I thought the 'entrance' was too small for a cat, but was proved wrong..
This is a photo off the screen, when the latest cat was determined to get at the dish which had some dog food.

Animal protection - a concept
When I hear of any case of animal cruelty, I think about this:
All animals who could broadly be classified as pets, should be 'chipped' and registered with an appropriate animal protection organisation. Those should be financed to issue an approval certificate ..
