    It's convenient.. circumnavigating the glaringly obvious "this individual is a particularly loathsome piece of ****" reality of the situation ...

    You do yourself a disservice ... those same posters actually assume that you, Simple Simon, the Easter Bunny and Kussturd are considerably thicker than everyone else... <cheers>

    It's interesting to watch it all unfold, particularly the various techniques to produce hydrogen and alternative fuels, as they're mainly old technology, or new technology that as yet doesn't work very well, and tends to produce more emissions and use more energy than the fuel they want to replace.

    Electrolysis is unlikely to be able to produce a meaningful amount, and needs rare metals for the process too. The main methods to produce hydrogen for combustion is pretty much a revision on the methods used to produce towns gas, before it was replaced by 'natural' gas.

    The German car industry is currently trying to promote what it describes as 'efuel', which adds hydrogen to atmospheric CO2 to produce...erm, a hydrocarbon, albeit arguably a better one.

    The technique (Fischer–Tropsch process) was developed after World War One, and improved further at the insistence of Hitler to give them fuel independence. They liquefied coal, and it provided about 50% of their war needs. It would have been more, but we kept bombing the production plants. I think we left the one in Auschwitz alone.

    Part of the issue with hydrogen is that it's a small molecule, so stopping it leaking can be problematic. The explosion risk is real, but often overstated, but in the atmosphere it affects the reduction of methane, which itself has a high warming potential and it's likely more of that will be released anyway of we're not burning it directly.

    Storing it requires high pressures, and cooling, and trying to pipe it brings in other problems, which mean it needs to be mixed with other gasses.

    That leaves producing at the point of use, which can limit it depending which process is used, and each have their own issues, and the final end use can also have problems due to the faster flame speed and wider combustion range, plus unless it's burned in a sealed unit, it will increase nitrous oxides in the local area.

    Even then, it generally needs to be converted to some other form of energy to be usable, so each time it gets converted in that chain, reduces the efficiency and increases the cost and complexity.

    One factor above all of this, is that the announcement that they were banning new internal combustion engines soon, meant the manufacturers shelved the research into reducing emissions from ICE vehicles, which means technology will have stood still for decades, and the impacts will be felt for decades after that. I don't think enough was done i for looking into improvements in existing engines, combined with finding ways to reduce the need to travel by private transport. The amount of money wasted on pie in the sky schemes would have made a good dint in that research budget.

    So you can take the stabby , van of peace killer Muslim out of Guinea-Bissau as a child & no amount of handouts & sympathy will stop him wanting to kill Infidels.

    Brown faced Muslim refugees are disproportionately involved in terrorism in England.

    The recent black guy that set fire to Muslims was an immigrant, the Manchester bomber immigrant, the Reading gay killer immigrant, the woman in Leeds that beheaded the little English girl Muslim immigrant it's really not worth the risk.

    As I said earlier, I’d imagine it’s more a sad indictment on the woefully under-funded mental health services in this country than the Muslim community. If anyone has blood on their hands it’s your political party rather than a mosque.

    It’s national refill day today. Mayor Khan has introduced new free refill stations across the capital. It’s a great day.

    If only are NHS had the resources to throw at violent Muslim Jihadists & diagnose Islam as a mental illness .

    It's a tough balance between importing & housing violent Muslim extremists , paying police & intelligence services to monitor them & treating the mentally ill psychopaths.

    Very confusing, if we know that some of the Muslims entering illegally into our country every day will end up killing UK citizens & both sides admit that it's the Government's fault then clearly deportation is the best cure .

    Sadiq is very good at extorting money from people for driving & handing out "free stuff" like all Marxists

    That’s kind of how taxes and government spending works, mate.

    When the ideology teaches it's followers that moving to non Islamic countries, refusing to assimilate to the host culture & killing them will give you 70+ virgins in heaven then this supercedes Western mental health programs.

    To even suggest that Mosques don't teach Muslims that Jihad is bad is Islamophobic.
