To be honest excessive charges for damage by lease companies is a bit of a myth. Sure there are a few cowboys out there but just make sure the lease company belongs to the BRVLA and you will be fine. You would be amazed at how much damage is deemed as normal wear and tear. Here is a link to the...

I work in the industry and the days of cheap leases, Personal Contact hire and Personal Contract Purchases have ended for now. The cheap deals are a result of how the industry works. Build slots are planned many months ahead. If it is a run out model or an unpopular vehicle then the manufacturer...

That may be the case in the USA but agricultural droughts aren't a fantasy in other parts of the World. A pretty good example is the Australian droughts. Or how about vast areas of Africa. Your post sums up capitalism. Millions of people dying of hunger and the USA is burning food for fuel...

Whilst some people have multiple houses, cars, gadgets, almost a billion people live in abject poverty. Whilst we can send men into space we cannot fund the basics like clean water for tens of millions of people. That is where the stupidity comes in.

I am sure there were Luddites who expressed similar irresponsible nonsense when we had smog filled cities and people struggled to live past their forties.

Because there were still huge numbers of people who were infected and would have passed the virus on. The irony is that when we relaxed the rules for Xmas and ended up with cases spiking.

Please explain how the horrific situation in Italy in which their health system was overwhelmed was turned around if it wasn't through Lockdown ?

COVID has killed 3.5 m people worldwide of course it is a great threat.

The Nightingales have been disbanded because the lockdowns and vaccines have worked. Look at places like India where they haven't been able to control the spread of the virus.

That was because of the horrific lack of PPE. Medical professionals having to reuse masks and using makeshift gowns.

You don't provide any though. A one word answer 'wrong' isn't evidence.

You don't immediately die from exposure to radiation though. The Union of Concerned Scientists estimates between 4,000 and 27,000 people died as a result of the disaster, where as Greenpeach places the figure much higher at between 93,000 and 200,000. Then you have the problem of how you...

Of course masks, social distancing and hand sanitisation stopped the spread of COVID otherwise it would have spread exponentially. If you were having an invasive clinical procedure would you be happy for a load of people who hadn't sanitised their hands and were not wearing masks to crowd...

John Hopkins University has the UK at 4.46m cases of Coronavirus and we have a population of 68m people.

They didn't just keep supermarkets open though. They enforced social distancing, hand sanitisation and people wore masks. That is what stopped the spread of flu.

I am not talking about deaths from Flu. I am talking about the number of people who have contracted flu. There were far fewer occurrences of flu because we eliminated the conditions that help it spread. Things like poor hand hygiene, people being in close contact and preventative interventions...

Agree with the shouts about a roof rack. Even if you have a transit sized van it is usually far easier to lash 8x4's on the roof than move everything around to put them inside. The one thing I would say is if you are putting thin 8x4's on the roof rack then use a couple of lengths of timber to...

The issue is that Long COVID is impacting huge numbers of people. https://www.ons.gov.uk/peoplepopulationandcommunity/healthandsocialcare/conditionsanddiseases/bulletins/prevalenceofongoingsymptomsfollowingcoronaviruscovid19infectionintheuk/1april2021 Self-reported long COVID symptoms were...

The problem with that argument is that NPI's have practically eradicated the Flu season so must have had an effect on the transmission of COVID.

Amazing how you believe all of that but still had the vaccine. Do as I say not as I do.
