Exactly this. Like rugby. The on field ref is in charge, ideally with a headset on and communicates with the VAR. All decision making should be made at the pitch side monitor, with the VAR sending the images to the ref to decide whether to change their decision. Rugby is a far harder game to...

The stoke game was terrible

They aren't needed in streets. Fast charging is needed at petrol station like facilities - we don't see people hoarding petrol at home to top up their car every evening

No, but that's the point. It has to be, so rather than not doing it we should just do it. It's not overly difficult to get the infrastructure needed in place. I guess there are 2 mentalities. Embrace the change we need to make and grasp the benefits. Or fight to retain the world as it is, make...

i dont think that reflects the profile of those who are leading these changes...Jacob Rees Mogg and co....

"Electricity demand reached a record low in 2022 of 320.7 TWh, down by 3.8 per cent from 2021. Electricity demand has declined year-on-year since 2015, apart from a slight increase between 2020 and 2021 with as demand recovered from the effects of the Covid-19 pandemic."...

They will have an agreed connection with UKPN, it just wont be in place yet as network reinforcement will be undertaken. There has been a significant role out in EV charging, including at existing garages and this should have (and needs to be) improved to compare with elsewhere. ..im sure there...

Another Cameron f*CK up. Pushed housing industry back years, homes would have been essentially carbon neutral from 2016 rather than 2025 under the future homes standard. New homes coming through now with the updated 2022 building regs are far better. I work for a SME housebuilder and we are...

What went wrong. I'm looking at this scheme...surveyor coming on Friday

Its irrelevant without showing mortgage cost against income and value of the property though isn't it

The problem is the build cost on contaminated brown field land is very high..the easy sites have been built on, particularly with recent changes to building regs, biodiversity net gain, management of surface water etc...on top of that outside of cities there is a need to provide expensive...

12+ years of cheap money have led to this crisis. If mortgages had sat at around 3-5% for the last 10 years house price inflation would have been significantly less. The value of my new house almost doubled between 2014 (previous purchase) and 2022 (my purchase) without any improvements to the...

I think he'd be a very good signing

7000 miles in my EV since October. No problem. Charge at work 90% of the time.

Veltman had a clause allowing us to sign him for £1m as he stayed an extra season with Ajax. Haarland and other players in Germany also often have a clause built in...we agreed a contract extension before the world cup that insured we had a happy player and what looks like a guaranteed min fee...
