A typical deluded 80's tory
230 pound a month ??? i cant afford that . I make a grand on a good month. Old women is rich toff. Dont mind rich , just dont be delusional on the working class
Yes but the cost is offset by the car being electric. You don't have fuel cost.
The peak district lol, that's a dream holiday not a fxxxing realty check, she hasn't got a clue.
Oh and it £500 a month for the Tesla , half your wedges mate, she's a arrogant and completely out of touch toff 👍🏻
@@gingerbaker4390 our car has £40 fuel cost, it was £25 before the change to e10 fuel
@@helensmusings I have an electric auto. It cost me around a 10 quid a month to charge up.
@@gingerbaker4390 Great, our car probably cost a fraction of what yours cost to purchase, we own outright so no lease fees, plus the price to enable you to charge it, and having bought a second hand car already in circulation it's better for the environment then just mining the materials for the battery of yours. But genuinely, if you're happy with your car I'm glad, because having the choice and the ability to choose what is suitable to our individual situations is the most important thing
A woman that's never had to worry about how to pay her bills lecturing us about how things are getting better
She's an absolute clown
Gas and electricity prices are rising because of carbon taxes. Inflation is happening because government printed more money. Wages increases mean nothing with the accompanying rise in cost of living. My husband use to earn far more as a skilled labourer, the wage he could get was depressed right down to minimum wage because of the influx of 20 to 40 year old men entering the work place since 2010.
Edwina you come and stay with me and my family and tell me exactly how that wpuld be possible. You live in a dream world. But do you know what, I don't have big dreams, raising my kids to be strong independent happy adults is my dream and I'm living it. So as long as we have what we need, I'm good, and we always manage it. But, what doesn't help is the constant tax increases, because the government want to pay for yet more increases to civil servant wages, or another totally irrelevant train which saves 20 mins on the journey from London to the north. It's insane. And those of us that live in the real world resent paying for the upper echelons of society to go 20 mins faster on a 4 hour journey, whilst you tax us for just enough heat to stay warm.
Well said
This could be one of those moments where the old conservatives get pushed aside for genuine conservatives
god i hope so .. cant help but respect these 2 not just genuine words but genuine reactions.
Remember currie gave savile the key to the asylum to abuse back in her day.
Says the multi millionairess....
Edwina has never worried about bills, ever.
she should come and live with a family in a counsel house for a reality check not us go to the peak district 🙄
she will prob take 2 step in and have a meltdown and leture people. She stinks of i know best attitude
@@Xeeni87 I agree, its equally astonishing and sad that people like her not only have absolutely no idea how the working class live, simple things like the anxiety and worry that comes with every mot for those of us that own a car, (most dont) and she's talking about hiring a f🤬g Tesla , it's so sad because they actually believe they do know, and its absolutely crystal clear in these interviews they haven't go a clue.
This woman is so out of touch , joe bloggs don’t have a pot to piss in because of this covid shit and just few hundred quid ( what out of fresh air ?) a week for a Tesla most can’t afford a quid for a pasty.
She argued this in the 80s/90s…I remember her saying about 5he poor, l
They should eat oatmeal. Just sayin*.
I bet her pension is nice edwina aka lock jaw on something
You're kidding me. The working classes made fortunes in the eighties. They bought their own properties, started businesses etc. The first newspaper in colour came out then also. Maggie Thatcher opened up the Conservative party to aspiring working classes, who previously voted Labour as their parents always did
I love it when people giggle as there are people in Britain freezing and going hungry.
I think the blonde lass was giggling because of maybe Edwina talking nonsense, if she was.
There is more oil and gas in the north sea than you can shake a stick, get back to drilling !!
Exactly we're surrounded by oil fields, on top of coal, completely surrounded by water which could be harnessed for hydro, we should never have to buy fuel in from elsewhere. Just the shipping costs alone makes it ineffective, not to mention it's worse for the environment to ship the fuel than it is to use our natural resources.
I'm lost, why are you asking Edwina Curry's opinion? She seems totally deluded.
Curry reminds me of deli belly. 😩
Wow! No change from Edwina Currie's stance as when she was in a Thatcher era where she told the freezing elderly to "Knit more Jumpers." All that has to happen is like other countries, Cap the energy company's.
Top deal on Tesla website £382.02 per month on a business lease £458.42 for personal lease. Unless the prices have pretty much doubled in a year then RJ 1, EC 0. And if they have doubled in a year then that shows that the price is rather volatile which says there are major factors at work which should be clarified.
More taxes are good?
I keep commenting sorry but let's have these ladies debate edwina and prove that she is thick as a plank
Curry is an odious tory out of touch like many are. The blonde woman in the middle is so.right about much but I hate how they all go on about hard up public sector workers that are payed for.by tax payed by private sector ,and I personal feel we get a bad deal .I Apperciate it has been very bad for the in the pandemic but it has been money wise far far worse for many more in the private sector..many public sector have been on full pay under the disguise of work from home ,full pay..politicians the worst .
Currie is misinformed on a massive level.
What a drone.
Edwina curry... right there people is an example of out of touch..... to be an mp you should have to have worked in a proper job in the real world... lived on real world money and have raised a family.... where hardship meets compassion....
Does she use or did she public transport
Let's Go Brandon! Let's Go Boris!
I wonder how much money Mrs Currie has invested in "green energy" companies? When asked directly about the 25% green tax every household pays as part of their energy bills she deflected by offering Tesla car rentals to help out. I didn't realise Tesla donated to the tory party.
I did some googling about this, and Edwina Currie seems to be wrong about leasing a Tesla for £250 month, the sofa guest was more accurate saying it is more like £500 month. However, it seems you can lease an electric car for the sort of price Edwina Currie mentions. It is a Nissan Leaf, which is one of the most popular electric cars available at the moment. Lease deals from £208 month (after an initial £2000 payment), plus you save a lot per month not having to buy petrol, and just charging with electricity.
Currie doesn’t know the difference (and would probably argue that there is no difference) between a Nissan Leaf and a Tesla…she’d also probably argue that there is no difference between iphone and Android, PC and Mac, Playsation and Nintendo..I can just hear her now, “Computers are computers, lovely young person, they’ve been around since before you were born, I know I had one in my commons office”. She’s outlived her usefulness I’m afraid.
A leaf does 50 miles possibly 100 which for some is not enough. Then how do you charge? They won't have drive ways.
Honestly people like you shouldn't be anywhere near politics.
@@sw1000xg Err perhaps people like me SHOULD get into politics. The current lot have just wrote off £4.3 billion in pandemic business loan fraud, that could have instead paid for 635,000 solar roof installations on the countries poorest homes, which would reduce their yearly electricity bills by at least 25% on an ongoing basis. Better than Sunaks loan he is giving people who then have to pay it back in their energy bill over 4 years. Also, LEAF has a range of 168 miles not 50 or 100, and there is 1000s of charging points al over the UK, some even offer free electricty. They can also be charged via a normal 3 pin home plug.
@@GardenandGreen so you come home from work, if lucky you can park outside your terraced house, run an extension cable across the pavement and charge your car and hope no one trips over it and sues you.
that should work well.
@@macraghnaill3553 If you have a terraced house you can plug it in and recharge when you are at a supermarket, or calling into a Starbucks or something, and use a charger. The infrastructure for EV is growing every month. There is apps showing the nearest to where you are in the UK, and theres already thousands of them. Currently in Norway, about 90% of new vehicles in Oslo are electric, and many car parks have chargers for every car park space.
Go away curry she is deluded
Just ignore my question, Edwina!!
Edwina, you may not need cars in London [ I do doubt that[ but some parts of the country have no public transport at all and need cars
last time I looked at electric car prices the cheapest was £35k
What a stupid suggestion to give £600.00 for heating as Labour suggested, the money has to be borrowed and can only be paid back by taxing people plus the interest ( Nandy must be even thicker than she looks) LOL
The Labour problem is talk talk only! One day they say pause energy tax levy plus VAT which is good thing, but then want the treasury to hand £600 to each household!!!
I don't want the treasury handing money, loans or grants! I want the government turning coal stations on and people will get cheaper electricity and the treasury wouldn't hand loans to citizens!! When gas prices come down, then switch coal stations off!!!
Who doesn't live in the real world. And most of the electricity in this country is made with guess what gas
I totally disagree with that guest over 55 truly out of touch
Not totalitarian Currie again!
Wtf just wtf!!!
Has Major stopped Bonking the Egg lady as yet ?
old conservatives live in mansions in a parallel world
Omg
Brandon is the cause of rising petrol prices!
The peak district lucky woman
