The recent resignation of Treasury Minister Tulip Siddiq, amid corruption allegations linked to Bangladesh, has led to significant changes within the UK Treasury. Siddiq’s departure has paved the way for Torsten Bell, a prominent economist and co-author of the Ending Stagnation Report, to assume a key role in shaping the nation’s economic policies.
The clock is ticking, folks. In just a few short years, the UK will see the end of new petrol and diesel new car sales. With the 2030 deadline back on the table – thanks to Labour reinstating the original plan. While hybrids might stick around a little longer, those glorious, pure petrol-powered machines we love are slowly disappearing from showrooms.
Let’s get one thing absolutely clear; the grooming and exploitation of women, girls, and children is an unconscionable crime that no society can tolerate. As a Muslim, I unequivocally denounce such heinous acts. Islam, like all major religions, holds the sanctity and protection of the vulnerable as paramount. The Quran condemns injustice and exploitation, and under Sharia law, those who perpetrate such crimes would face the most severe punishments.

Scotland, oh beautiful Scotland – home to some of the world’s most breathtaking driving roads. It’s where the tarmac winds through valleys and over hills, offering an exhilarating experience to anyone behind the wheel. But now, a blanket 50mph speed limit is being proposed for all single carriageways, and quite frankly, it’s a bit of a slap in the face for those of us who truly cherish the joy of driving.
Well, hello 2025. What fresh hell do you have in store for us, eh? One thing no one can take away from us is our imagination. So, let’s picture a world where the simple act of driving has become as complicated and soul-destroying as trying to get through to a human being in customer services. Your call is important to them, they assure you – almost as important as this warning of the dystopian nightmare our motoring future could become.
Year-end; time to reflect, react and contemplate. A tough 12 months, that’s for sure. Didn’t go to plan, that too an understatement. But did it beat me? Nearly. Did it scar me? Definitely. Don’t hesitate to hit play on the video below – my words, SUNO’s sounds. It’s something that you might relate to, it’s something that might soothe, maybe even inspire some hope. But as for reading the rest of this, if you share a state of mind as delicate as mine, best to cease now, and click away. Check out my automotive year in review instead, it’s kinda funny. It may amuse and distract. But peruse below only at your peril.
2024 has been a crazy year for the car world – it’s been madder than an Uber driver on an airport run during peak London rush hour, nastier than a two-day-old petrol station tuna sandwich, and more confused than a glitchy driverless Tesla trying to find its way out of a car park.
It’s not every day you hear two automotive giants like Honda and Nissan mentioned in the same sentence with the word “merger.” But that’s exactly what’s happening, according to a report from Nikkei. Two of Japan’s biggest car manufacturers are reportedly in preliminary talks to join forces, and if this goes ahead, it could be one of the biggest shake-ups the car industry has seen in decades.
There’s been a lot of chatter about Nissan lately. Doom-laden headlines about financial turmoil, production cuts, and whispers of collapse have been doing the rounds. Some are even saying that the legendary Japanese automaker, the one responsible for icons like the GT-R, Z cars, and the mighty Patrol, could disappear within the next 12 months. That’s a big claim. Could this really be the end for Nissan? Well, not so fast.
Jaguar. The name itself purrs with sophistication, elegance, and a dash of roguish charm. But recently, the big cat has been making waves – not for its legendary heritage, but for a rebrand and concept car so bold it’s got everyone scratching their heads like a puzzled moggy. Is this the future of luxury motoring, or has Jaguar strayed too far from the tree? And is ‘making waves’ just another way of saying ‘drowning’ with no hope of rescue?
