Landrover Defender 90 TDI. 1997. Stolen last night from the farm. Distinctive colour and branding. Much loved. We would like it back please. Please share. @homebrewhops

I'm showing more people how to fix EV and hybrid batteries and systems this week. There's so much false information out there, but with the right skills these vehicles can last as long as any other.

A sustainable future means fixing and keeping viable stuff working. Luckily we can help with that, in association with the @aohereng we offer a range of basic skills training: motor-skills.co.uk

Secondary meter replacement pipe work kit. Of course it isn't. Probably not much @GasSafeRegister can do, but @eBay_UK these are being sold for the act of theft of gas, which is a crime and incredibly dangerous as well. Amen!

Making sense of energy price rises is important. They’re going to be the cause of a lot of poverty in the UK, soon. So, I’ve been doing some analysis. What follow is a bit simplified, but not too much. What it reveals is that you’re about to be ripped off, massively. A thread….

For every £100 you spend on fuel. £3.00 goes to the garage, almost £40.00to the fuel manufacturer (BP, Shell etc), and £57 goes in tax to the chancellor.

Instead of energy bills going up, may I propose energy profits going down?

Talking to fellow tradespeople in the last week we are all going to start raising prices to compensate for fuel costs. The first time many have raised prices in nearly a decade. If you live in the sticks or the ULEZ's don't be surprised if firms don't want to quote for work.

Ukraine and the West (and, let's face it, Ukraine is in the Western alliance) need to start thinking about their strategic end state. A thread.

Ever use green lanes? You need to respond to this government consultation. The last time one of these happened we lost about 50% of the UK's green lanes. Don't sleep-walk into losing the rest of them - here's some help in filling out the questionnaire: drive.google.com/file/d/1stc…

⚡️Zelensky posts another video filmed in central Kyiv. "There's a lot of fake information online that I call on our army to lay down arms, and that there's evacuation," he said. "I'm here. We won't lay down our arms. We will defend our state."

It is imperative that the UK becomes as self sufficient as is possible, skills, manufacturing, food and energy in particular. The assumption that we can off shore most of our manufacturing emissions, importing back 'green' is about as far from sustainable as you can get.

Another batch of fantastic techs trained on EV maintenance, repair & upgrades today. Really positive group, I think we're making a difference! My attention now turns to the fabrication metalwork class we're running this Saturday. Looking forward to this. motor-skills.co.uk

Together we stand. Compassion, understanding, knowledge and considered action. We are a community. We may disagree sometimes but should never alienate any one group because that would be unfair and ultimately weaken us all.
