Cost of driving electric car up to twice the price of petrol or diesel

Motorists without space at home to charge their cars are facing prohibitively high costs at public facilities

Britain’s public charging network is so expensive that the cost of driving an electric car is now up to twice the price of running a petrol or diesel vehicle.

The UK has more than 12,500 rapid or ultra-rapid charging stations — a 40 per cent increase on a year ago — but data shared with The Times shows they cost an average of 80p per kilowatt hour (kWh), making the switch to electric cars prohibitively expensive for motorists who do not have access to cheaper at-home charging.

‘Now we’re afraid of phones and laptops’: Beirut on edge after attacks

At his electronics shop, Kevor says there is little demand for pagers. Everyone wants mobile phones these days, he adds.

He is not likely to sell any soon, though, reflecting the fact that in the Lebanese capital this week, holding some electrical devices is akin to holding a bomb. “I’m Lebanese, I’m used to this,” he says. “What happened yesterday was extraordinary.”

OTTAWA — The Liberals say the House of Commons exceeded its powers when MPs ordered the government to hand over all documents related to the so-called “green slush fund” so they can be sent to the RCMP.

On Wednesday, Government House Leader Karina Gould called on Speaker Greg Fergus to reject opposition parties’ claim that the government violated MPs’ parliamentary privilege by refusing to provide them with unfettered access to thousands of documents regarding Sustainable Development Technology Canada (SDTC).

Scientists investigating Titan submersible reveal explosive new details about fault that killed crew

Scientists investigating the doomed Titan submersible have uncovered shocking new details about what may have caused the catastrophic implosion.

Former scientific director Dr Steven Ross testified in front of the US Coast Guard panel on Thursday, admitting OceanGate’s sub experienced a ‘platform issue’ days before the fatal mission to the Titanic in June 2023.

The malfunction caused passengers onboard to ‘tumble about’ and one crew member crashed into the bulkheading, which a physicist has claimed was where water first began to flow into Titan.

The Toronto District School Board is reviewing their field trip policy after parents were outraged over middle school students participating in a “field trip” at a downtown Toronto political protest that turned into an anti-Israel demonstration.

Ex-Border Patrol Chief: Biden-Harris Administration Forbid Agents from Discussing Increasing Terror Threats

President Joe Biden’s administration instructed Border Patrol agents not to disclose to the American public the increase in terrorist encounters at the border, former chief patrol agent for Border Patrol’s San Diego Sector, Aaron Heitke, said on Thursday.

Before Biden took office, Border Patrol agents in Heitke’s San Diego sector typically arrested ten to 15 special-interest aliens (SIA), or suspected terrorists, per year. That number spiked to more than 100 encounters per year after Biden took office and continued climbing throughout his term, Heitke testified during a House Committee on Homeland Security hearing.

Teamsters herald end of Democrats’ blue-collar dominance

On Wednesday, the Teamsters Union announced that, for the first time since 1996, they would be withholding an endorsement in the race for president. The news, while not entirely unexpected, still stung for Kamala Harris and her campaign. And it’s the latest sign of the Democratic Party’s struggles to retain union — and working-class — voters.

The Dems are trying to shrug this off but this will hurt.
