Hammond: Driverless cars will be on UK roads by 2021

Driverless cars could be on UK roads within four years under government plans to invest in the sector.
Chancellor Philip Hammond told the BBC the objective was to have "fully driverless cars" without a safety attendant on board in use by 2021.

I love squirrel soup, in fact I recommend squirrels should be put on the menu as a healthy alternative to farm animals.

Sky Data: Should we take from the old to give to the young?

A question to our old chap Jimbo once he has woken up taken all his medication.

I have suffered under all governments and will continual to so I say to the young shut up and man up. We're all been screwed and all boned and as I have said so many times here only a revolution will change the rotten system we have. And that is never ever going to happen.

It may be worth it in the long run if it means we get a more favourable trade deal.

Finnish media reports say that PM Johnson and his deputy Mr. Gove demanded that higher offer must be conditional so that it can be withdrawn if they don't like proposed trade deal. Considering their lust for hard Brexit I don't think EU can consider that to be viable offer.
