Spot on Ozy. What are Labour going to do about it’s growing Starmer problem?
Investigation by the Parliamentary Commissioner for Standards for hiding freebies and income is about as serious as it gets isn’t it? Look what their investigation into former Minister Patterson done to him and Tory credibility. Labour called it an investigation into sleaze.
At the same time he is under a police investigation for lying about a lockdown party. Starmer’s office were the last to know that Rayner was at the party too, even though rest of world was telling them for months she was, “so more lies and obfuscation” to turn Starmer sentences back on him. Very soon focus group heatmaps on Starmer will have greedy and LIAR right in the middle, if not already 😟
Even though Starmer has got a lot better in the job is finding his MOJO, Labour need to think about how tainted their top team are getting now - Starmer, Angela and Rachel all at curry and beer lockdown party, Red Wes the Marxist strikers friend, Nandy who voted few months back to abandon UK Nuclear Deterrent. For voters to abandon devil you know during crisis is hard work, let alone for front bench with that sort of record.
Arron Banks @Arron_banks The judge felt sorry for Carole is how I would sum it up. Defamatory but no serious harm. I suppose falsely accusing someone of taking Russian money for Brexit doesn’t cut the ice. It’s likely I will appeal ..
Hahahaha, go on Arron, waste more of your money, you fucking mug
To be fair Arron though, he is standing up for what he believes in, and is up against the entire security and British establishment as he does it, which must be scary?
Ms Cadwallader is part of the establishment?
Whoever gave a like to that can take it away, I shredded that post with my reply.
Your challenge, should you choose to accept it is to tel me which one is the Tesla YTD Price graph and which one is the Bitcoin YTD graph
Amusing, but you could replace the Tesla graph with that of the S&P 500 and it would make very little difference to the difficulty. Possibly it's even harder.
S&P has, as you say, a similar shape, but both Bitcoin and TSLA are down 40%+ YTD while the S&P is down less than 20%
Your challenge, should you choose to accept it is to tel me which one is the Tesla YTD Price graph and which one is the Bitcoin YTD graph
Bottom is Telsa - but that's only because the US markets don't open for another hour.
So bored of fucking Teslas. Their two cheapest models are number 2 and 4 in the latest bestseller list, and they are common as muck around here.
The reason they are so high up the sellers list, is that the computers in them are not caught in the chip shortage affecting almost every other car manufacturer at the moment.
Order a Tesla now, and it’s three months away, it’s about the only new car you can order and not get a 2023 delivery date.
And yes, not the best car. the interiors are ergonomically terrible.

The shape is the same, the scale is different: the S&P is down 18%, Tesla 40%, and BTC 50%, YTD.
Incidentally, BTC not exactly demonstrating its use as a hedge there.

He declared some minor gifts late. He should’ve declared them within time, but it’s hard to see this as a great scandal or likely to receive some terrible sanction. (Obviously, the right will seek to present it that way.)

SKS defence appears to be he and his staff were so busy being noble and full of integrity they temporarily forgot to comply with the rules. Tip for Labour HQ. Dont call him Mr Rules if he is too lazy to follow the rules in a timely fashion. Eejits. 'I have integrity as and when administrative processes permit'

Saw a tesla mini-cab today in Edinburgh. Surely the economics don't work out on that?
I would have thought the economics of that work out why better than diesel at the moment - higher upfront cost but way lower ongoing costs.
Only works if the range is sufficient for a day's work, which probably depends a lot on the location where it's based - if its in traffic all day, the range might be sufficient, if its running up and down a motorway the driver is going to be spending time and money on expensive fast charging (as far as I can gather, running an EV from the commercial charging network doesn't really save you much compared to running an ICE vehicle).
I would have thought a hybrid with a big battery would work out better for the average cabbie.

That, plus the 2% BIK rate makes them the perfect company car for anyone funnelling their income through a PSC.
The latest register of MPs’ interests show several entries were added recently by Starmer: the book fee for one to five hours’ work a week since March 2020 received in April, and tickets for two football matches worth more than £2,000 received in March and April.
Stone often does not uphold allegations against MPs – dismissing 10 of those referred to her for investigation in the last parliamentary session....
Dpuble lol at Celsius. They not just frozen withdrawls but all crypto management. So now people are being liquidated on their Clesius loans as they cannot transfer money they have in Celsius to meet the margin call that Celsius is making.

'Several entries added recently' and hes written to Stone to apologise for late declarations. In todays chicken and egg, which came first, the declarations or the investigation? The answer to that might decide the outcome/tone of any resolution.
Really stupid to portray him as Mr Rules when he's so bad at following them in a timely fashion. Makes minor breaches seem so much more than they probably are.

Maybe someone who bought a Tesla, now reduced to driving a minicab to make ends meet? It could happen to the best of us.
A non-trivial number of London minicab drivers have told me they were going for a Model 3 for their next car. This was before the fuel price rises recently.
Apparently if you buy an electric vehicle via your business you can (could) get some serious discounts/tax rebates.

Good luck. We ordered a Toyota with a May delivery date in Feb. Then put back to August, Now 31st October, according to the latest message from the garage. Can't say we are too bothered as the value of our existing car seems to be keep going up in the meantime.

A Tesla long range can do 360 miles, I don't know how many miles a typical taxi in Edinburgh does per day but I would imagine that it generally doesn't involve much motorway driving. Apparently a 15 minute break would allow it to add 200 miles on a Tesla Supercharger. https://electrek.co/2021/11/03/how-long-does-it-take-to-charge-a-tesla/
Edinburgh has a low emission zone, so a Tesla would be a good choice for a taxi. The total cost of ownership for an electric vehicle is already quite competitive.

Taxis do low mileage per day - in London, cabbies have told me that they do something like a 100 miles on a good day.

Amusing, but you could replace the Tesla graph with that of the S&P 500 and it would make very little difference to the difficulty. Possibly it's even harder.
The shape is the same, the scale is different: the S&P is down 18%, Tesla 40%, and BTC 50%, YTD.
Incidentally, BTC not exactly demonstrating its use as a hedge there.
Saw a tesla mini-cab today in Edinburgh. Surely the economics don't work out on that?
I would have thought the economics of that work out why better than diesel at the moment - higher upfront cost but way lower ongoing costs.
Maybe someone who bought a Tesla, now reduced to driving a minicab to make ends meet? It could happen to the best of us.
A non-trivial number of London minicab drivers have told me they were going for a Model 3 for their next car. This was before the fuel price rises recently.
Apparently if you buy an electric vehicle via your business you can (could) get some serious discounts/tax rebates.
I get a lot of taxi's. Seen a lot of Toyota hybrids that have done 250k+ miles. I can't see it working out the same way for EV's like Tesla's, but what do I know.
Diesel must be completely finished looking at fuel prices.
What the mini cab drivers who were switching said was -
- The tax stuff reduced the *cost* of buying a Model 3 to the cost of Prius. - If they got a Model 3, they could get premium work. People will pay a bit more for an electric cab etc. - The running costs were much lower.
You can’t unilaterally amend an international treaty by changing domestic law. If you could there’d be no point in having treaties. It get to the heart of the difference between two ideas of Brexit.

I was thinking more about the deprecation rather than then running costs.
Depreciation is a running cost. And given that a 13,000 mile Ioniq 5 is on autotrader for more than list price I don't think depreciation is an issue in the current market.
Dpuble lol at Celsius. They not just frozen withdrawls but all crypto management. So now people are being liquidated on their Clesius loans as they cannot transfer money they have in Celsius to meet the margin call that Celsius is making.

Yeah - what depreciation? Bought a 21k mile 68 plate Outlander PHEV in April last year for £21,500. I've now doubled the mileage and its still worth £19,500. Had I done 10k miles instead of 20k it would be worth the same as I paid for it. Makes a change from cars depreciating like a brick flies.

Prius was the hybrid of choice for the London minicab game but Toyota seems to have stopped making them. I was going to add something about exemption from the congestion charge but a quick glance at the rules suggests any recent ICE car is exempt from the proposed London-wide ulez scheme so I'm a bit confused.
Spot on Ozy. What are Labour going to do about it’s growing Starmer problem?
Investigation by the Parliamentary Commissioner for Standards for hiding freebies and income is about as serious as it gets isn’t it? Look what their investigation into former Minister Patterson done to him and Tory credibility. Labour called it an investigation into sleaze.
At the same time he is under a police investigation for lying about a lockdown party. Starmer’s office were the last to know that Rayner was at the party too, even though rest of world was telling them for months she was, “so more lies and obfuscation” to turn Starmer sentences back on him. Very soon focus group heatmaps on Starmer will have greedy and LIAR right in the middle, if not already 😟
Even though Starmer has got a lot better in the job is finding his MOJO, Labour need to think about how tainted their top team are getting now - Starmer, Angela and Rachel all at curry and beer lockdown party, Red Wes the Marxist strikers friend, Nandy who voted few months back to abandon UK Nuclear Deterrent. For voters to abandon devil you know during crisis is hard work, let alone for front bench with that sort of record.
And no definite or indefinite articles in three of your four paras. It's a very distinctive style. The third para was idiomatic.

I can buy E90/F30 330d and 335d for about half of what they where going for 2 years ago. I mean I don't want to but I can.
What is wrong with them, out of interest?
Nobody wants to be lumbered with an older diesel, particularly the higher power models that run insane rail pressures (2700 bar in the 335d!) and a lot of boost.
They are great long distance cars though (until they go wrong) but are an evolutionary dead end.

His USP - his only USP - is that he is neither Johnson nor Corbyn.
Yet he cannot even get the basics correct. A big-brained lawyer who is under whether he broke the law in Durham. Who cannot even follow the rules on donations.
And getting £1,400 tickets to a football match does not make him appear one of the people, either.
If this had been Johnson, then Starmer would be calling on him to resign. Because that is his shtick. And given that's his shtick, he should be clever enough to ensure he follows the rules to the letter.

Dubai taxis regularly do 1m km in three years. I think the highest one I’ve seen is 1.3m. The city is long and thin, and the roads are all fast. Almost all Toyota Camry hybrids, although a few Kias and Hyundais starting to join them in the last year or two.

Every single non EU gate (10) is open so can't see how they can do it quicker. There are only 4 EU gates but they are empty. We were spoilt previously.

Well you could always enjoy a British resort like Torquay or Southend or Skegness post Brexit. You don't have to holiday in the EU, the weather looks good here this week and no passport control queues either
Oh I see we're back to "Starmer is crap" again, one bad poll and you can predict the response on here.
If Starmer wishes to go I'm quite relaxed, Labour has good options unlike the Tories.
I'm not saying Starmer's cr@p, and my comment's nothing to do with polling. It's to do with the fact that Starmer's not only missing open goals, he's kicking balls into his own net.
I wonder what happens if Tether falls? Does the whole crypto market just break down? I'm not a domain expert, would be interested to hear from @rcs1000 and @edmundintokyo on it.

We should all be desperate to avoid that narrative. There lies the route to greater apathy and an even worse form of populism than we currently have. Apologists for Boris Johnson, to their shame, would be quite happy with this appalling state of affairs. They are the equivalent of those who tacitly or overtly support Trump.

I don't respect Starmer at all, but I think Streeting could be OK and I have a few quid on him.
Otherwise I don't think anyone on offer, on either side deserves to be PM so my next vote will probably be to try to get Ed Davey to be Deputy PM and play a Clegg-like role in the next government.
I just hope that doesn't lead to electoral reform.

Order a Tesla now, and it’s three months away, it’s about the only new car you can order and not get a 2023 delivery date.
And yes, not the best car. the interiors are ergonomically terrible.
Underpinning Bitcoin is "number goes up" herd mentality.

VW have a lot of delivery problems, as their wiring looms came from the Donbas.
Tip for Labour HQ. Dont call him Mr Rules if he is too lazy to follow the rules in a timely fashion. Eejits.

Lack of competence in filing declarations is, admittedly, not the best way to draw a distinction between him and Johnson...

...He was paid an £18,000 advance by the publisher HarperCollins, which he has pledged to donate to charity.
The latest register of MPs’ interests show several entries were added recently by Starmer: the book fee for one to five hours’ work a week since March 2020 received in April, and tickets for two football matches worth more than £2,000 received in March and April.
Stone often does not uphold allegations against MPs – dismissing 10 of those referred to her for investigation in the last parliamentary session....
Which would solve any Starmer problem.
Just incredible.

On June 13, the Eighth Administrative Court of Appeal in Lviv banned the Socialists party. All property of the political force will be transferred to state ownership, @chesno_movement reports.
In todays chicken and egg, which came first, the declarations or the investigation?
The answer to that might decide the outcome/tone of any resolution.
Really stupid to portray him as Mr Rules when he's so bad at following them in a timely fashion. Makes minor breaches seem so much more than they probably are.

We ordered a Toyota with a May delivery date in Feb. Then put back to August, Now 31st October, according to the latest message from the garage.
Can't say we are too bothered as the value of our existing car seems to be keep going up in the meantime.

Edinburgh has a low emission zone, so a Tesla would be a good choice for a taxi. The total cost of ownership for an electric vehicle is already quite competitive.
I was taking issue with @MoonRabbit 's slightly hyperbolic "about as serious as it gets...".
Diesel must be completely finished looking at fuel prices.

Plot-twist: it was Labour that allowed substitution of doctors with so-called "physician associates" and it was Labour that allowed American chains to buy up GP practices (but don't call it privatisation).
His USP - his only USP - is that he is neither Johnson nor Corbyn.
Yet he cannot even get the basics correct. A big-brained lawyer who is under whether he broke the law in Durham. Who cannot even follow the rules on donations.
And getting £1,400 tickets to a football match does not make him appear one of the people, either.
If this had been Johnson, then Starmer would be calling on him to resign. Because that is his shtick. And given that's his shtick, he should be clever enough to ensure he follows the rules to the letter.
Is he just a hollow shell?

How is a non-MP favourite. Just shows the parlous state of the Opposition atm. EdBalls at 230s looks value on that basis. And therefore I've just put a few quid on him.
Thanks Boris.
My 2-year-old eniro is worth nearly as much as its list price today.
Apparently the expected impact on battery life just hasn't been seen.
(By the way - forgot to thank you for helping preserve the T&S for PSCs. Really very much obliged (I'm very fortunate that my route all the way to the end-client is not doing the sane thing but are actually jumping through the legislative hoops properly. And I wouldn't be surprised if, had we lost T&S, we'd also have lost company car privileges as well, so many thanks for that as well!)
'Im different'
Yeah yeah, jog on son
How long did the queue take?
Every single non EU gate (10) is open so can't see how they can do it quicker. There are only 4 EU gates but they are empty. We were spoilt previously.
There are a hell of a lot of Americans here.
If it makes you feel any better, you'll probably still get through security quicker there than at Manchester Airport.
If Starmer wishes to go I'm quite relaxed, Labour has good options unlike the Tories.
People will look at this and see there is little difference between the two. Which is a shame, as there is. But the optics of this are terrible.
Actually I think we were unlucky and came in after some big flights from USA because the queue is now about 400 so more than halved since we have been in it. Bloody yanks.
Crypto is priced in Tethers, not USD.
Otherwise I don't think anyone on offer, on either side deserves to be PM so my next vote will probably be to try to get Ed Davey to be Deputy PM and play a Clegg-like role in the next government.
I just hope that doesn't lead to electoral reform.
