I hope they allow non driving ID to be registered on the app for all proof of ID purposes. I have a niece who cannot get a driving license due to epilepsy and if they are going to expect digital ID for a lot of services it would be difficult if she could not use it.

True but it does have a sort of utilitarian functional beauty.

I’m a bit puzzled by “working age” being classed as 16-64. Is that an admission that a very large proportion of those between 64 and the state pension age (66 increasing to 68) are actually unable to continue in employment?

Funny thing was it was a Tesco policy that doubled the price, though for the previous two years they were either the cheapest or so close that I didn’t bother changing; I think last year there was one policy that was £15 a year cheaper. This year though they were far from cheapest.

Traditionally automatics were much less efficient, giving a significant power loss and substantially worse MPG. In the UK with smaller cars with smaller engines and expensive petrol this was a much bigger disadvantage than in the USA.

However modern automatic gears have improved so it’s not longer a big disadvantage.

Are we limited to two images in a post? It didn’t seem to let me add more after this.

Oh the images don’t show. let’s try one here
