Telegraph- Motorbikes face net zero ban
The sale of new petrol-fuelled motorcycles is set to be banned from 2040, under plans due to be announced by ministers as part of its net zero crackdown. The move would affect all vehicles classed as “L3” and upwards, including scooters and light, medium and higher-powered motorcycles. There are around 1.3m motorcycles registered in the UK.
From my cold, dead, driveway boys.
uhuh.
where do you get gasoline?
you got a refiner? how long before all the clandestine operations are shut down and the eqpt dismantled.
you have no notion the depths unrestricted power take poeple.
Diesel engines can run on vodka.
They need to be culled and controlled. If the IQ of the average person was 10 to 15 points higher we would not be facing the insanity that has been allowed to grow and fester within nations.
Of course. Lawn tractors and push mowers will be next and if you don’t think it’ll happen here give your head a shake.
We’re about 6 or 7 years behind Britain’s curve. Inevitable…the world’s burning don’tcha know.
Not to be picky, but its really a spiral, not a curve. Like a toilet.
Uh … they’ve already been BANNED in CA …

Guess I’m driving to NV to buy a petrol powered push mower …
They’ve nearly isolated everyone, step by step, this is what happens when your government feels it can finally do what it wants to the majority of its population.
For example to all those “gun grabbers” out there, your day is coming from those that you championed to take away from the few.
People refuse to take control of these fools and become slaves of their own volition.
Well, I’m quite happy to be a slave of my own volition. I’d like more people to be slaves of my own volition.
Banning scooters that get 75 miles per gallon proves that it’s not about emissions.
It’s about banning freedom.
Yep.
Well … they tried to ban my 97% efficient Navien NPE Nat. gas fired tankless WH … that costs me about $15.00/mo. to operate despite massive PG&E rates. It’s the most efficient thing I own … next to my 96% efficient Nat. gas fired HVAC unit.
Yes, these Zero Carbon idiots are certifiably INSANE.
Shoot em.
The cons want everyone freezing and immobilized in the dark and won’t control the borders. How much worse can Labour be when they win the next general election?
Remember, this is a “conservative”
Government. What is the functional difference between them and Labour, other than possibly labour wanting to return the UK to the Stone Age slightly more quickly than the alleged conservatives?
The longer the madness goes on, the more painful the reckoning, when it finally comes, will be.
Notice that they set dates for their entire banning of new sales well beyond an election cycle or two. I wish they would make it immediate and then watch them try to survive the fall out. This, from a Conservative government (pretending to be “progressive”) that will be wiped out by socialists soon enough. Conservatives should focus on being true to something besides raw, ignorant, and corrupting power.
Nope, never happen. WW-III is certain to intervene before that happens.
The UK is small. They can all walk and burn off those fish n chips calories.
Sang The Proclaimers….
The Italian scooter riders would string up their PM.
And the so-called Tories are doing this …
God, King, Country … and Net Zero? Dude. You aren’t a Tory anymore. By definition.
Well, they don’t believe in the real God, the king is a self-absorbed fool, and the country ain’t what it used to be…
Mind you, labour will be worse, far worse, when they landslide in… I look at the U.K., and it’s as if someone activated the self destruct sequence there!
Finis Britannia.
Can’t wait to see what bikers and bikies will do about this !!!
Yet one more reason to nuke that shithole of an island.
I never thought the Mad Max was a prediction of our future but it may well be. Imagine marauders travelling about looking for fuel for their pollutant emitting internal combustion vehicles / s
All of our “leaders” are members of the WEF cult. We are “democracies” in the West in the same way that the United Kingdom is a “monarchy.”
Into the wood chipper with these busybodies! (Feet first of course)
Paris too:
To combat the ill effects of urban noise pollution, Paris is deploying automated sensors and cracking down on the loudest vehicles.
