That has to be one of the most stupid ideas I've heard in a long time. Well I suppose if they do give it the green light they can celebrate with the mother of all BBQs..  noooo:

Yes utter, utter bonkers3whacky115

Apart from anything else, as has been pointed out elsewhere they could achieve the same reduction by just replacing at a lower rate for 10 years...

Am I the only person who looked at that design and wondered how many people in the lower chairs would end up decapitated in the event of a crash?  noooo:

Boris and Mad Nad gone in a day.  There's got to be a catch, maybe I'll wake up and it was a dream

Not sure what the repercussions of Boris are going to be given that members of the committee were tweeting and posting they thought Boris was guilty long before the investigation was complete. That's going to call impartiality into question regardless of it being the right call or not.

Which is rather to ignore the point that even Boris admitted to the majority Tory committee that he'd badly misled the house.  And they didn't even get to look at the most serious charges against him.
