I’ve been vegetarian for decades and I’ve heard the taunt, “but you’re wearing leather shoes” a few times.
How does the idea that ‘doing something is better than doing nothing’ escape the people who say that kind of stuff?

I’m not able to respond on the thread to your question about affording an EV 🤷♀️
So answering here. We aren’t that well off, but husband does a salary sacrifice through work so it’s kind of like renting the car, or leasing. We definitely couldn’t afford to buy new!

I hate AI
It is costing us far too many jobs, wasting natural resources, costs too much money, gorges on electricity and is reducing brain function.
The returns are not worth the cost...
Unless you own the AI, in which case you won’t give a shit what it costs because it’s making you even richer.

I was told it costs more to insure an EV because they are a fire hazard.
What!!!
Compared to a combustion engine… the clue is in the name!
You are literally sitting on a fluid that explodes into flames at any opportunity.
Have fossil fuel lobbyists infiltrated the insurance racket?
Bunch of lying 🤬

When a British/Egyptian activist uses their free speech to express an opinion - however divisive - it gets the right mouthpieces squawking with outrage, and yet they don’t bat an eyelid when the media does this…
From Nigel Farage to this caricature, it's been striking to see how little of a shit the right now gives about antisemitism.
After all, when a Labour leader was accused of it, they were deeply, gravely concerned.

Catching up on last weeks bbc question time and the first question is an older woman claiming child benefit is being used by mothers to get their nails done.
My answer would be for every mother getting their nails done* there are many more parents going without meals so their children can eat.

2. The inequality of the top 50 richest families holding more wealth than the poorest half of the population, comprising over 34 million people.
