patently Posted April 2, 2008 Report Share Posted April 2, 2008 Common sense published on the subject of driving in the UK ?! Whatever next? Anyone would think the authors of that piece had been reading TSN for a few weeks.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stooH Posted April 3, 2008 Report Share Posted April 3, 2008 Even if only a few of those points made their way into the conservative manifesto I think i'd be encouraged to vote for them. It sounds like someone actually listening to the general populace and not serving their own agenda. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gizze Posted April 3, 2008 Report Share Posted April 3, 2008 I think the point about China is the most important, while we tax our countries companies and manufacturers out of business all we are doing is giving China more growth, with it they are causing more polution, and so we are actually causing more damage to the enviroment. Well done Labour, kill the countries economy and the planet in one go!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(none of which are, IMHO, established)... then all that effort by the UK's drivers saves us for ... 6 minutes. Whoopydo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stooH Posted April 3, 2008 Report Share Posted April 3, 2008 Actually it says it will take 6 days to negate it. You can do an awful lot in 6 days (Might need to take a day off in the middle for a break). Of course increased breathing produces more CO2 thus negating the savings of the exhaust emissions.
