Lol yes bro. If your lithium-ion battery has a designed life span of 10 years of use, it will be useless after that time. If you design cars where the battery is an integral part and cannot be replaced, the car is scrap when the battery is scrap. How do you not get that? Don't u use phones?

Reform UK is a far-right party.
There wouldn’t be any debate just a few years ago.
But the fact there is now shows something very worrying about the direction our politics is heading.

I welcome the ceasefire between India and Pakistan.
Too many lives have been lost, and we will not break the cycle of violence until the people of Kashmir are given a voice.
They should decide their own future — and deserve to live in peace and freedom like anyone else.
