Personally, I think it's going to be hard to manage and there will be many people finding ways to reverse or hack the mileages. If there needs to be extra hardware fitted to the vehicle, that's going to be expensive. If it relies on reading the car mileage, what about people driving on private...

Don't you just borrow money and put the debt on the newly acquired business or something?!

If it isn't pubs not flying flags because Muslims complained, it's Easter Eggs being called chocolate eggs because the world has gone woke (but ignoring the fact the words Easter Eggs is written on the back or elsewhere on the box). There's a famous calendar image that shows all the things...

At this point, I can imagine even the Bakerloo cabs looking like Leake Street Arches.

Yeah, lots of people on FB with Reform avatars or flags saying we can't say Christmas anymore and it's all 'seasons greetings' or the use of the word 'festive'. Our council had the Christmas lights turned on and said as much, but the called it Festive Friday as it was on a Friday and there were...

Floors sometimes get done too!

Finally seen a unit with the new vinyls in the toilets, to try and deter graffiti attacks. It's a shame the ceilings don't get any treatment, although the interior is already darker as it is. (Photos show disabled and regular toilet with dark vinyl coverings on the walls.)

Standard business practice. We all know the company will eventually fail, but there's major profit to be extracted for now - and plenty of people will make a LOT of money along the way. When it does fail, all those buildings have a value for someone to come in and acquire at a nice discount...

If you read what I said, it was that a recognised card that could serve as secure ID if you don't have a passport or drivers licence. It could help prevent all sorts of fraud when applying for loans, mortgages, opening accounts and so on. I don't see why you'd need to carry one for any other...

I expect they'd also find a way to ensure that drivers of luxury and performance cars don't have to pay too much more than someone driving a efficient A-segment car. 1763972774 As I've said before, if you're representing the wealthy elite - which is maybe a couple of percent of the national...

While I am sure it can and has happened, a fail to call (which is what it would be deemed as if the driver forgot to release the doors) is a pretty serious operational incident. It does seem odd that a driver could not only forget to release the doors, but also proceed so quickly. The only...

Yes, and each door has a speaker to alert too.

He can turn on them, but by then people will have 'broken free' and he'll be left out in the cold. His power over people is already starting to fade. I think too many Republicans are considering their futures post-Trump now.

It's very hard to figure Trump out right now. His dementia means we're certain to hear more insults as he finds it hard to control what he says (it can't be long until he says something even more offensive than 'piggy'), but in the flip side, I think his recent comments about getting into heaven...

If the doors have to be manually selected, there would have been an extended dwell time - not a shorter one.

I agree. Plenty of people tap cards on a weekend when a super off-peak ticket would have been cheaper, and plenty of school children tap despite that meaning they're paying adult fares. It's amazing how much more people will pay for convenience, yet I am sure all of them would moan about high...

'There are good people on both sides'. I hope MtG has realised that despite supporting the line that the lunatic left are as dangerous, or more dangerous, than the right - she's been fine when her opposition was the left, but all of a sudden she's receiving threats daily now she's upset the...

Overrunning engineering work seems incredibly common on the ECML between Stevenage and London. If there has been work taking place, it's not unreasonable to be concerned about whether the first trains will run. I suppose you can check OTT and look at the state of the signals to get a clue, but...

There are a couple of units going around with 'Not in Service' on the screens, also announcing as such inside at every station. Has occurred for at least two days now.

Yes a lot of very white areas do seem very deprived (Skegness, Clacton etc) but it is much easier to blame everything on people who are relatively recent arrivals and with darker skin - or indeed a different religion (as if all the residents were devout Christians). What better way to cover for...
