The more I think about the 2040 deadline to stop producing petrol and diesel the more I am convinced that we have a bunch of nit-wits in government. Has anyone thought about the millions of small craft around our shores and other countries. Everyone uses an auxiliary diesel engine to assist the boat handlers. How would we charge up the batteries when on anchor or if a marina was not available. Right rant over for today let's get down to business of getting SS Maggie to the land of milk and honey before 2040 otherwise we won't be able to continue our journey without diesel. lol

Hi Robsky. That's it then lets organise a bus to take us over there. Those holding bus passes go to the front of the queue. (he he that's me). Do we have any PSV drivers on board?

Re my rant from yesterday. todays joke is that if everyone bought an electric car the government would have to build five extra power plants the size of Hinckley Point just to charge the vehicles. And the new Hinckley Point is years away yet. LOL You really couldn't make it up.

Hi Gd7. It would have to be someone from WED. I believe that good Scotch whisky is hard to find in 'Broken Arrow' only Bourbon available so wouldn't suit Robsky. lol

Morning maggots I suppose we can look at it one less mouth to feed. Keeps the overheads down.

Hi GD7, check out the history on the author of the article. It is rather interesting.

The Transport Minister reckons he has the answer to the pollution problem he is going to remove all of the speed humps. ha ha Where do they get these guys?

Whilst I am having my little rant think about this cos the Chancellor has not. where will he make up the lost revenue on the taxes imposed on fuel. How will he tax us for charging our cars whilst plugged into a socket at home?

What happens to the worlds oil markets, producers etc, etc. Diesel and petrol vehicles banned. No one using most of the oil products. What about ships and planes. A plane the size of a jumbo jet just to carry the battery would be required. ha ha . The worlds leaders are thumping their desks and saying after 2040 no more exhaust gases from vehicles. You couldn't make it up.

Wow this is a big can of worms. What happens next and where does it leave SOS?

Morning maggots, L1onheart you were right with your late trades at close yesterday.

Cracking start on NEX. Take a peep chaps and fill your boots I can see this flying today.

to trading today up 8.7% could be in for another interesting day. Strong finish on close of trade Friday.

Hi. craig, interesting post and a nice bit of research. Something to look forward to.

Hi BS. I believe that you tell some cracking jokes. Do you remember this one..:- You should you posted it several years ago on this Board. lol And in keeping with the german joke's this is my best one... A German walks into a library and asks for a book on war. The librarian replies, "No mate, you'll lose it."

Is having a busy day as well. So far 31.3 million traded mostly all buys.

Maggie is now at the top of the Risers Board.
