Have a Jaguar I-Pace myself. Efficiency is very poor at around 2.6 miles per kW. Because of the tariff I'm on it works out at best 2p per mile or worst 6p per mile. Real world get about 240 miles range. So doesn't matter really about the efficiency. I wouldn't trade it for a tesla under any conditions. When I sit in a tesla vs what I'm used to, the build quality is shocking.

Public Sector - Pay Freezes
dragging boot straps replied to Money Frugality's topic in House prices and the economy
Public sector retention rates are very high. That tells you everything you need to know about the working conditions. However if not....I know a few people who work in the public sector. They've been fully paid since March and only had to do 1 day per week despite it being an office job. Even when the kids went back in September they are still only churning out 1 day of work between 9 and 3.30pm. Not bad for £40k and fat pension at the end. -
Lloyds is back at 28p

We have all those things. You can add that I think you should get paid NOT to have children. -

Naive. What industry do you work in? -

This is not far off at all. I'm on a team writing a piece of software which is about to put 4000 people out of work in the next year. Walked through a massive office block with the guy who wants it, he whispered "every single one of these will go and we'll save a fortune and make fewer mistakes". In a nutshell that's why I'm strongly against immigration. We need fewer people now not restless millions tomorrow. -
Only available to those on tax credits or universal benefits. Aren't your levels of these determined as a balance of the other? Do we have a benefits system or not? Is this for people self isolating from the job centre or their made up nail bar? Lots of screeching to remove the benefit cap too. All the people hoping to pump out 8 kids and get 40k+ for 30 years have suddenly noticed this getting implemented.

Exactly. Apply at overseas embassies. If you turn up in the UK by boat then you should either be returned to your last safe country or returned to your country of origin, all the above is agreed upon in international law. Also where did it say she starved to death? Where's the father when all this is going on? Sturgeon's comments were vomit inducing.

HPC Website Performance - Packet Loss
dragging boot straps replied to warpig's topic in House prices and the economy
This site has had trash hosting for a long time. Always slow to respond and sometimes.... not there at all. Very much like a landlord. -
So 2.7 million unemployed. 9.6 million on furlough. 2.7 million self employed claiming furlough(although may still be working). Total 15 million out of a work force of 33million ish. 45% right now claiming benefits. Insane. At least we don't have to worry about where to get our fruit pickers, hospitality workers and hand car washers from.
