⛽ Next time you hear the Government blame the prices on overseas crisis, think of this 👇🏼 No tax/VAT: 📉 Unleaded 67.0p/litre Diesel 86.1p/litre Full pump price: 📈 Unleaded 143.9p/litre Diesel 166.8p/litre Govt takes ~77p petrol / ~81p diesel per litre (fuel duty 52.95p + 20% VAT). Over half your fill-up is tax 💸

Sick of seeing this account spread misinformation: Norway kills more whales than any country in the world. Last year, they slaughtered ~429 whales—many were pregnant. Norway ~63% Antarctic krill catch China ~24% (CCAMLR latest data) It is misleading to only mention China
David Walpiri@DWalpiri

Whales migrate to Antarctica to feed on krill so they can build up energy to breed When countries like Norway stopped whaling in 80s, we thought whale populations would bounce back & they did Now Chinese vessels are going after the krill without really knowing how much is left

The rather lovely Wagner Skytrac 3 prototype helicopter from West Germany in the 1960s. The Skytrac project evolved over 30 years, but without much success and the design rights were eventually sold to a Chinese company... with the intention of building it as a UAV!

Never Forget...The Funerals During Covid. Son moves closer to console his Mother at her Husband’s Funeral. Watch facility staff immediately interrupt them because of ‘Social Distancing’ rules & ‘The Science.’ Never ever forget what these people did to us.

Hands up if you’ve had your council tax bill for the next year and it’s going up! 🙌🏼 Mine wasn’t frozen, it’s gone up. Labour lied to get into power. “Labour would freeze your council tax” “Not a penny more on your council tax” “No ifs, no buts” Lies, lies, and more lies.

Anyone dismissing comedy should take a look at Top Secret! (1984), where an entire sequence was performed backwards and then reversed in post, creating one of the most inventive gags ever put on screen.

Chinese fishing vessel in Antarctic scooping up krill, right next to whales and penguins These ships track where the animals go to feed & take their food. The ship is Shi Dao, the same fishing vessel that was caught dumping oil into Fijian waters at a shipyard a few years ago.

The Saunders-Roe Princess airliner flying boat, this time with some reference to the proposed passenger cabin layout. The prototype only ever flew with an empty fuselage bar some monitoring equipment.

🚨🇬🇧🇺🇦 “The focus needs to remain on Ukraine” Zelensky is back in Downing Street with UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer for the 37th time in two years. Zelensky’s visits always result in war UK taxpayer money being loaned to Ukraine, which no one knows what it gets spent on, or what they’re even doing with it.

The Boeing SST mock-up from 1969. If this project had not been cancelled, it would certainly have been a very dramatic addition to the airline fleets of the period!

Every single time Ed Miliband goes on the TV, his ludicrous, entirely dishonest, gaslighting arguments are effortlessly dismantled. It doesn't matter what the subject is. Fuel costs Energy prices Net Zero *Nothing* he says is based in reality. The man is a dangerous liar.

The PZL TS-16 Grot...which I assume sounds better in Polish! Was a proposed Polish supersonic trainer and fighter design from 1958. Considering that the UK was still employing Meteors and Vampires at this time, it was very advanced,but only a full-scale wooden mock-up was built.

Sometimes, an enthusiastic engineer will try and circumnavigate conventional thinking. The Maiwurm Flyworm, was just such a machine. It was powered by propulsion using a rotating device that functioned like an Archimedes screw or Magus effect engine...with which it never flew!

Just 50 VL Myrsky II fighters were built during the Second World II, and none survived intact. Now, more than 80 years later, a passionate team known as the Tuesday Club is painstakingly restoring MY-14 — the only fully Finnish-designed wartime fighter — bringing a lost symbol of national ingenuity back to life loom.ly/nDCCDNI

In Wolverhampton a parking warden is handing out parking tickets outside a mosque. A man with a foreign accent, parked on the pavement, calls him a racist. I am told many councils ignore illegal parking outside Mosques on Fridays. It is, after all, two-tier Britain.
