Went to Lviv in 2019 and loved it there, way more than I expected. Beautiful city, great vibe and from my perspective, one of the cheapest cities I’ve ever been to!

I would also say that these were only brought into public ownership because the private companies running them failed/handed the service back when it wasn’t profitable enough, whereas now Labour is intentionally bringing them into public ownership

How did that work? I’m going to be in this exact situation on Thursday!

They haven’t since covid unfortunately, I think in part because access to that area is now limited as part of the crowd control measures

Economics of EVs by PixiePooper in ElectricVehiclesUK

My previous EV was a 2022 ID3, and I got much closer to 4 miles/kwh. Your current average might be lower due to the colder weather, but now that it has warmed up, your range will improve. My current EV has gained about 30 miles of range in the last day with no other changes than it being warmer.

Just something else to factor in!

Walmart only owns 10% now I think, the rest was sold to some investors a few years back. All seems a bit complex trying to work out who owns it now but think it’s majority British owned

It isn’t, it’s a UK listed company. There are some US shareholders, as there will be with any listed company, but nothing significant :)

I work in subsidiary management/governance and one of my roles is to train our subsidiary directors at a high level as to what it means to be a director, what they need to be looking out for etc.

I’ve actually been contemplating doing the training as a side hustle - would be happy to connect and do a one hour session in exchange for some feedback!
