Motorists are hanging on to cars for longer, a survey by the AA has found. They’re doing it to avoid a government road tax scam, which was introduced for vehicles registered after April 2017. One-third of cars in circulation are now over a decade old.
Feet On The Ground

Get lost!
A vexatious litigant, who has won just one of 60-70 claims seeking compenbluddysation for discrimination, has been banned from continuing with his racket. Which means he’ll need to find another career.
Even though he had a solitary win, he has been paid thousands of pounds to buy him off as a cheaper alternative for a firm being dragged to a tribunal to waste time and money on a hopeless case brought by Mr. Vexatious.
Wet to the point of saturation
More of it
Another Daily Disaster reader was wondering if the Labour MP C. Bryant would be worried that the Mandelsleaze is now a rival for his internet-exhibitionist title Captain Underpants.
A third DD reader on a particularly good day was wondering if DEFRA would organize diversity days so that middle-class countryside residents could visit ethnic inner-city zones which are irrelevant to their lives.
Milipede fraud exposed
The Department of Energy, source of Edstone Milipede’s BS on Nett Zero, doesn’t use green energy. It uses brown energy from fossil fuels. Milipede’s alibi is that the power is bought by the Crown Commercial Service, which has to deliver value for money, which excludes using Milipede’s overpriced green energy. Which exposes all his claims that Green Is Good as just more Labour Lies.
Judicial Pragmatism
A Daily Disaster reader pointed out that the Cranston inquiry into deaths of small boat invaders made 18 recommendations; none aimed at the criminal gangs, the invaders themselves, the French or the EFU.
Could that be because Professor Cranston, formerly a judge and a Labour MP, assumed they’d take no bloody notice of his conclusion? But HM Coastguard and the Marine Accident Investigation Branch would have to go through the motions at the very least?
Just a blip
Is Mr. J.B. Zos, the Amazon boss, going to be even mildly concerned about a $20 billion slump in the value of his company’s shares after the A.I bubble burst a bit?
Nah. Not if what’s left is still worth $180 billion.
