New AutoMotive estimates that Ford could be 7,000 cars short of its ZEV target. With fines of £15,000 for every car short of the target that would leave it notionally with a bill of more than £100 million.

The law:

The United Kingdom's Zero Emission Vehicle (ZEV) mandate requires car manufacturers to ensure that a specified percentage of their new vehicle sales are zero-emission vehicles, primarily electric vehicles (EVs).

Manufacturers must meet increasing annual targets for zero-emission vehicle sales. For instance, in 2024, 22% of a manufacturer's new car sales must be zero-emission vehicles. This target is set to rise progressively, reaching 80% by 2030 and 100% by 2035

On the night of Wednesday 25 December, a man in his twenties died in Tourcoing, north of Lille, while in a "chemsex" evening. According to AFP, around 5 a.m., the police were alerted by the rescuers for one person in cardio-respiratory arrest and one in a coma. The first individual did not survive. A third person, lessee of the dwelling where the events took place, is in police custody for manslaughter.

Granted this is all translated from Frogspeak, but still very odd how the other members of this sexy party are just mentioned as "members".

Who was at this s*x party? Two guys and a girl? A guy and two girls?

"The more people you point the finger at a group of people who have already been discriminated against, the more difficult it is to take care of their health and are therefore likely to fall into addictions. The homophobia and repression of this practice therefore only worsen the problem."

Ah there it is

Gays can't keep their hedonistic lifestyles in check, but that's because of DISCRIMINATION you BIGOT!
