This is a picture of a diesel car charging station that are popping up everywhere. Here's an interesting fact.... That 350kw generator uses 12 gallons of diesel fuel per hour, and it takes 3 hours to fully charge a car to get 200 miles. That's 36 GALLONS for 200 MILES!!! 5.6 mpg.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
This is a prototype charging station, built by a consumer (not a company) in the middle of the Australian outback. This is a 50kW generator (not 350kW) so his math is incorrect, and they aren't popping up "everywhere". There is a single one in a niche use case. thedriven.io/2018/12/14/die…

VB also pointed out way back that the Maastricht Treaty was unconstitutional. Power lies with the people and it cannot be given away without their consent. – at Westhumble, South East
Professor Vernon Bogdanor reminding us in @thetimes today that the SNP is not historically a pro EU party. Even when Sturgeon joined SNP wanted to leave. It “changed” purely for tactical reasons (“independence in Europe”) and would no doubt change again if it thought convenient

Imagine if we had two billion pieces of PPE expensively stored that were never used. The idiots would be asking about waste.
This afternoon’s Downing St briefing- we heard the most ridiculous question posed since the briefings began, “ the Nightingale Hospitals are empty, were they built in error?”. Is it any wonder the public have such contempt for the media?

Alastair Campbell criticised Boris for missing PMQs cos of being with his new-born baby. “He should still be doing it” he said. AC was part of the Gov’t that brought in Paternity Leave. AC would have criticised Boris for setting a bad example if he had done PMQs.

I never thought the day would come when I said this, but Alastair Campbell is a disgrace.
A new born baby may be a better excuse than most for missing PMQs (though he should still be doing it). I suspect we are going to see an awful lot of excuses in future. @BorisJohnson has a habit of avoiding proper questioning.

Isn’t it amazing that now the deaths in hospitals have started falling that the media start looking elsewhere for other stories and graphs that are more depressing to cover and gloss over anything that might just give people a bit of hope 🤷‍♂️

We looked into the interviewees on #Panorama last night. Every single one of them was a pro-Labour activist before the pandemic. Every single one. It was a party political broadcast on behalf of the Labour Party.

So are we going to see a formal apology from the @BBCNews for the lies told in the #Panorama programme last night? I see the programme is already withdrawn.

Guido Fawkes's allegation today about Panorama today could do with a speedy response from @BBC bigshots.

China doubles down with its propaganda campaign attacking Western democracies for their handling of coronavirus. Paris complained about Chinese disinformation. Beijing responded with another attack on French care homes on Paris embassy website.
