'All' petrol and diesel drivers in England given 'five year' warning - Birmingham Live
The ban on the sale of NEW petrol and diesel cars is back to 2030 says the new government.
In fact nothing really changes here because, in spite of Rishi Sunak chasing headlines, the Zero Emissions mandate had not changed for manufacturers, who face an escalating requirement for how many EVs they sell every year. This year they need to hit 22%
I mean, i dont think anyone argues to keep the royalty because they actual serve a vital function in the operation of the government.

Twelve years ago today, a Norwegian neo-nazi murdered 77 people in Oslo and Utøya. His youngest victim was 14 years old.
A month ago, one of the racist bloggers he cited as an inspiration was elected speaker of the parliament of Finland. His party is in government.

It was at that sore spot on the racial map that Reagan revived talk about states' rights & curbing the power of the federal government.
In front of a predominantly white audience numbering in the tens of thousands, Reagan proclaimed, "I believe in states' rights".
