Fortunately I won’t see the day when electric cars are compulsory, for me, it’s not the building of the car, it’s those poor little children collecting the mineral to go in it’s battery.

Whatever happened to solar powered cars? There must be a lot of the world where they'd work and yes, it's time societies like ours which have outlawed child labour at home recognise the immorality of buying goods from countries where it is the norm and exert pressure on others to do the same.
As for families in the UK and Europe needing food banks, that is a shameful failure of government, education and common sense and a whole other subject.

Well I got one without adding to Mr D's bulging coffers. I'm really pleased with it and there was even a slight tussle over who was going to 'drive' it so we agreed to one floor each to put it through its paces.

Purely solar powered cars would only work in daylight. Any which use solar to charge the batteries have exactly the same problems as all others in the need to obtain the components to create the batteries in the first place. Until batteries have been developed to the stage where I can fully recharge in under 5 minutes, and can then drive 400 miles before recharging again, I won't consider taking that route.
An interesting question. I think it would depend on what those politics were. If he just voted for a different party to me, I’d probably buy it. But if it was a particular issue that I felt strongly about, I probably wouldn’t. But you called him an ******* and I certainly wouldn’t buy from someone I felt that way about. And just to add to the vacuum cleaner bit, I agree that Dysons are *ahem*.... rubbish. Love my Henry though.
Thank you for the research, I’m very pleased to hear that, more iPads or phones mean less laptops and pc’c which have very big batteries in comparison. We have a 2010 iPad, still going strong, can’t get you tube now and it hadn’t got a camera, but everything else is still going strong.
