Labour said they wanted the population to transfer to EVs. Just as some of the population started buying them, Rachel Reeves is now threatening to bring in punitive taxation on electric vehicles that stands to halt sales of EVs altogether. So much for Net Zero, not only are EVs unsellable now, but the heavily invested British motor industry will be left with rotting, rusting electric vehicles on their forecourts. So much for economic growth, the idiocy of this chancellor is beyond logic or comprehension.
According to the plan, starting in 2028, drivers would pay 3p per mile for electric vehicles and 1.5p per mile for plug-in hybrids. Sales of EVs were cut in half as a result of similar initiatives introduced in Iceland and New Zealand in 2024.
The OBR said it estimated that the new EV tax was likely to reduce the number of sales expected to be made by the end of 2030-31 by 440,000 units.
Just as British drivers are slowly coming round to the idea of EVs – the car industry fears the Chancellor is about to wipe out the progress being made.
“No one will want an EV any more, it makes no sense, but this is to be expected from an incompetent chancellor and Labour government. Brits will now never drive EVs,” a former EV owner revealed.
It would be a strategic error to implement such a complicated, expensive system that targets the very cars that manufacturers are finding it difficult to sell; this would discourage customers and further reduce the industry’s capacity to meet ZEV mandate targets.
Net Zero just got fucked …
UPDATE
THE ONS TODAY (13 NOVEMBER 2025) JUST RELEASED THE STATE OF THE CAR INDUSTRY IN THE UK. THE MOTOR INDUSTRY IS ALREADY ON ITS LAST LEGS THANKS TO LABOUR’S PUNITIVE POLICIES, A HACKING EVENT, AND TO ADD A PAY-PER-MILE TAX ON EV CARS WILL KILL IT OFF FOR CERTAIN.
Hamas terrorist Abu Kalb Qadhir is set to head the BBC after the resignation of former boss Tim Davie, who was forced out of the job yesterday.
Tim Davie resigned in disgrace as the BBC’s top boss on Sunday after saying “we did nothing wrong” following criticism a Panorama documentary misled viewers by doctoring a speech by US President Donald Trump.
After being asked whether it was the right thing to do to have a terrorist as head of the BBC, the corporation further denied any wrongdoing.
“We see nothing wrong with Abu Kalb Qadhir. He will run the BBC from a tunnel in Gaza as he conducts further attacks on Israel. There is nothing wrong here, what are you insinuating? Death! Death to the IDF!” BBC spokesman Terrie O’Risse told the media.
Keir Starmer’s Labour government has given the new appointment its full backing, and are even promising more sanctions on Israel, and RPGs for BBC studios.

There’s a new rhythm in Filipino leisure, and it’s happening on screens across the country. The familiar sound of shuffling cards, once a staple of living rooms and neighbourhood gatherings, has found a digital home. Through GameZone, the well-loved Filipino pastime Tongits Go continues to thrive—only now, it’s powered by technology and designed for a new generation of players.
What once required a physical deck and a table is now available in the palm of your hand. GameZone’s version of Tongits Go retains everything that made the traditional Tongits card game special—its cultural charm, strategic excitement, and sense of connection—while adding the convenience and security of digital play.
For many Filipinos, especially those juggling work, school, and family life, Tongits Go on GameZone represents more than just a pastime. It’s a familiar comfort in a fast-paced world—a way to relax, reconnect, and relive moments of shared joy.
A Beloved Classic Finds Its Digital Heartbeat
Tongits has always been more than just a game. It’s a cultural bridge that connects generations. Families once gathered around tables with a single deck of cards, laughter echoing as players tried to outsmart one another.
Today, that same excitement lives on in GameZone’s Tongits Go, where the deck is virtual but the spirit remains authentic. The app transforms traditional play into an engaging, mobile-friendly experience without losing its Filipino soul.
GameZone’s digital version honors the original game’s format—three players, one deck, and the pursuit of smart melding and quick thinking. Yet, it adds intuitive features that make gameplay smoother and more interactive. Card dealing, scoring, and moves are automated, letting players focus entirely on strategy.
By simplifying the mechanics without diluting the essence, GameZone ensures that even new players can quickly learn how to play Tongits while seasoned enthusiasts appreciate the polished interface and fair play environment.
The Rise of Tongits Go in Filipino Gaming Culture
Filipino players are known for embracing games that combine competition with community. That’s exactly what Tongits Go delivers. It captures the cultural familiarity of Pinoy Tongits while introducing features that appeal to today’s tech-savvy generation.
The rise of digital play in the Philippines isn’t just about convenience—it’s about preservation. Games like Tongits, once limited to in-person gatherings, have found new life through platforms like GameZone. Players can now enjoy a game during a break, while commuting, or even from abroad, bridging physical distances through shared gameplay.
For overseas Filipinos, Tongits Go provides an unexpected sense of home. A few taps on the screen bring back memories of local fiestas, lazy afternoons, and the warm banter of neighborhood matches. In this way, Tongits online has become both entertainment and nostalgia.
GameZone: The Trusted Home for Filipino Card Players
At the heart of Tongits Go’s success is GameZone’s trusted reputation. In an online environment where fairness and safety are essential, GameZone stands out as a platform built on transparency and community care.
GameZone ensures that every Tongits game is conducted fairly through encrypted systems, randomized results, and consistent updates. The app operates smoothly across different devices and internet conditions—an important feature for Filipino players who value reliability.
Its user interface is equally thoughtful. Menus are clean, visuals are bright yet balanced, and transitions are seamless. The overall experience feels like sitting at a real Tongits table—only more convenient, private, and secure.
Beyond design, GameZone upholds the principles of responsible play. It encourages balance, reminding users that the best games are enjoyed in moderation. By integrating reminders and optional limits, the app ensures that players have fun while staying mindful of their time online.
This blend of innovation and responsibility has helped GameZone earn the trust of Filipino players who seek authentic entertainment within a safe environment.
Inside the Game: How to Play Tongits the Smart Way
Even for beginners, Tongits Go provides a guided introduction to the fundamentals of the game. Once logged in, players are automatically dealt their cards—12 for most participants and 13 for the dealer. The goal is simple yet strategic: create valid melds or sequences and reduce the value of your unmatched cards, known as “deadwood.”
Players can draw from either the deck or discard pile and must decide when to lay down combinations. When a player believes their deadwood is lowest, they can declare “Tongits.” If the cards run out first, the player with the least deadwood wins.
GameZone makes this process easy to follow with clear icons, quick tutorials, and visual highlights that show available moves. The system also handles counting, shuffling, and scoring automatically—turning what once required practice and patience into a smooth, accessible experience.
This automation doesn’t remove strategy—it enhances it. Players still need observation, timing, and adaptability to succeed. As any experienced Tongits player knows, every draw can shift the balance of the game.
Smart Play Tips for Tongits Go Fans
Success in Tongits Go isn’t purely about luck—it’s about thinking ahead. Experienced players often rely on a few practical techniques:
Manage Your Cards Carefully. Don’t hold onto high-value cards for too long. Knowing when to meld or discard can dramatically affect your final score.
Observe Your Opponents. Watch their discards and draws. Understanding their patterns can help you anticipate their next moves.
Play With Patience. Sometimes, restraint is your strongest move. Waiting for the right moment to act can be more effective than rushing a meld.
These principles may sound simple, but they reflect the same strategic mindset that has kept Tongits engaging for generations.
Cultural Roots Meet Digital Innovation
Few digital games manage to preserve the emotional essence of Filipino culture as effectively as Tongits Go. Its appeal lies not only in its gameplay but in its familiarity—the way it reminds players of togetherness, laughter, and lighthearted rivalry.
Cultural analysts point out that Tongits occupies a unique place in Filipino life. It’s a reflection of social bonds, often played during celebrations or quiet evenings with family. By bringing this experience online, GameZone doesn’t replace tradition—it extends it.
Younger players can now learn from older family members, even if they live apart. A grandparent in Quezon City can play a round with a grandchild in Davao or even abroad. Through GameZone’s Tongits Go, digital entertainment becomes a shared cultural experience that transcends distance.
With the highest tax burden in 400 years, 28% inflation in 4 years, and a government who is part of the Chinese proliferation of global communism, there is no hope for Britain now. Labour is preparing the groundwork for transitioning the country from socialism to full Communism. Additionally, every moment of the heavy taxation and punitive shutting off of business by the Labour politburo is one conducted with utter glee as the bourgeoisie and wealthy are either forced to leave the country altogether or they stand put to lose every penny they ever worked for. The push for global communism has also recently been bolstered with the election of an overt communist as New York Mayor.
What was the first tactic that Labour employed when they assumed power? Yes, they gave all Big State civil servants, unions and apparatchiks huge inflation busting salary and pension increases. The reasoning for this is simple — to bolster allegiance in the socialist state and party.
Why has mass immigration increased under Labour, and why are illegal migrants put up in the lap of luxury in 4-star hotels and given vast benefits, free health care etc? Each and every one of those migrants is a guaranteed Labour voter — this is why they are treated like VIPs. Millions of these people are avowed Labour supporters who will vote Labour, and their extensive families will vote Labour, otherwise they lose all their free benefits. They are immediately fast-tracked to citizenship for a reason, and that is to vote for Labour. This is the exact same system Obama and Biden employed in America when they opened up the borders to millions of poor South Americans and Mexicans, they did not care for these people, they were not doing it out of some liberal benevolent reason — no, it was for Democrat votes during elections.
Due to mass unfettered immigration, the indigenous population of Britain are viewed and labelled as “far-right” agitators and imprisoned if they voice their concern about their local areas and their own safety. This process is called “downgrading” of the population who are not socialist Marxists or migrants. They have outlived their usefulness and are punished daily for waving their “England” flags which are deemed as fascist symbols that need to be pulled down immediately.
Why did the Labour government reduce the voting age to 16? This is another easy method of garnering votes. After going through the socialist education system and becoming fully indoctrinated, the age of 16 is the prime age to enlist these youngsters to vote Labour. They see it as a duty to do so because their indoctrination in socialist, woke, soviet propaganda is at its zenith point. It is only as these students age that they may realise they had been fooled, but by that time it will be too late. Most students are socialist when they are young and pliable to socialist indoctrination, but as they age, they see things more clearly and realise how destructive and irresponsible the socialist soviet system is. There is no utopia, and free things have to be paid for somehow. Having said that, for some of them the indoctrination is so severe, they never mature and are kept in their socialist soviet mind prison until they die.
Why is Labour chancellor Reeves taxing everything to eternity? Well, as Lenin said:“The way to crush the bourgeoisie is to grind them between the millstones of taxation and inflation.” This is the primary reason, as Labour transitions the country by utilising communist collectivist methods to redistribute wealth and assets from the private sector to the public sector. Through high taxation and inflation, many will be eventually left with nothing, as their wealth is absorbed by the Big State.
Net Zero? There is no benevolence present here amongst Labour regarding the environment or anything like that. Instead, Net Zero is a cover for more punitive Marxist control over the population and to implement even more horrific tax rises for the collectivist transfer of wealth to the Big State.
Labour Transitioning Britain From Socialism to Full Communism
Phase 1: Consolidating Power and Shifting the Overton Window
This phase would use the existing democratic system to lay the groundwork for its own abolition.
1. Declare a “National Crisis” and a “People’s Mandate”: The Labour government would declare a permanent state of emergency: citing climate change, budget black holes, Brexit, saving the NHS from Nigel Farage, 14 years of Tory government, extreme inequality, or foreign subversion, to justify extraordinary measures. This frames their actions as necessary for national salvation.
2. Constitutional Revolution: Abolish the House of Lords and replace it with a “People’s Assembly” filled with loyal party members, trade unionists, and sympathetic academics. This neutralises a key check on government power.
3. Media and Information Control: Licensing and “Public Interest” Tests. Introduce a licensing system for all media outlets, requiring them to demonstrate they operate in the “public interest” as defined by the government. Critical outlets would lose their licence. Establish a “People’s Broadcasting Service”: Increase the powers of a state-funded media giant like the BBC to become the primary, trusted source of news, consistently framing the government’s actions as positive and necessary.
4. Educational Indoctrination: Overhaul the national curriculum to focus on Marxist-Leninist theory, the “inherent contradictions of capitalism,” and the history of class struggle. School loyalty pledges and youth leagues (e.g., “Young Pioneers”) would be established to foster a new generation of party loyalists.
Phase 2: The “Democratic” Transition to a Command Economy
This phase moves from regulating the economy to actively dismantling and replacing it.
5. The Abolition of Major Private Property: All property, all businesses, all assets will pass through the Big State and there will be no compensation to the previous owners of that property. This is currently being employed with heavy taxation methods, but in the future Labour would simply confiscate all private property. Nationalisation Without Compensation: Pass an “Economic Democracy Act” to nationalise the “commanding heights” of the economy: all major energy, water, rail, and communication companies, along with the top 100 largest corporations. Shareholders would be offered minimal “compensation” in non-negotiable state bonds. Worker Soviets in Name Only: Initially, these enterprises would be placed under the control of “workers’ councils” (Soviets). However, the Labour Party would ensure these councils are chaired by party members, effectively placing them under state control.
6. The Creation of a Command Economy:
Establish a “State Planning Committee” (Gosplan) to set production targets for all nationalised industries and eventually for the entire economy. The price mechanism would be gradually replaced by state allocation. Introduce a digital “Labour Voucher” system to replace money for non-essential goods, theoretically pegged to hours worked, to abolish “parasitic” profit.
7. Abolition of Financial Markets: Permanently close the London Stock Exchange. Convert all major banks and building societies into a single, state-owned “People’s Bank,” which would control all credit and investment according to the state plan.
Phase 3: Dissolving the Old State and Eliminating Opposition
With economic power secured, the state apparatus itself is transformed into an instrument of pure party control.
8. The “Voluntary” Dissolution of Parliament: The Labour government, now effectively the Party, would declare that the old bourgeois parliamentary system is obsolete. The “People’s Assembly” would replace the House of Commons, formally establishing a one-party state.
9. Reform of the Security Apparatus:
Loyalty Purges: Conduct thorough loyalty checks within the military, police, and intelligence services. Senior officers with questionable allegiance are retired or given non-operational roles. Creation of a “People’s Militia”: A new, ideologically pure security force, reporting directly to the Party leadership, is created to counterbalance the traditional police and army. New prisons and camps (Gulags) will be built across the country where all political prisoners and those deemed an “enemy of the state” will be imprisoned, or liquidated.
10. Suppression of Civil Society: All organisations not under state control: charities, NGOs, churches, even independent trade unions are either disbanded or absorbed into state-run “front” organisations. Public assembly without state permission is banned.
Phase 4: The Soviet Communist End-State
This is the final, stabilised stage of the system.
11. Formal Declaration of a “People’s Republic of Soviet Britain”: The monarchy is formally abolished, and its assets seized. The new constitution enshrines the leading role of the (former) Labour Party as the “vanguard of the working class.” All royals are executed live on television and the internet.
12. The “Withering Away” of the Market: The last vestiges of private retail and small business are collectivised into state-run cooperatives. The economy runs entirely on central planning and allocation.
13. Permanent Ideological Vigilance: The education system, media, and state security apparatus work in unison to promote communist ideology, root out “counter-revolutionary” thought (now defined as any opposition), and cultivate loyalty to the Party. The state, instead of withering away, becomes all-powerful in overseeing this transition to the theoretical communist utopia.
Naturally, the process outlined will not be free of conflict. There would be a struggle between old-guard democratic socialists and the new, ruthless vanguardists within the Labour Party.
There would be inevitable economic sanctions, capital flight, and potential for foreign intervention. One can imagine Donald Trump watching this in utter disbelief. Trump is already viewed by Labour as a capitalist pig, they will view America as an enemy to soviet Britain.
The public’s reaction as their freedoms are systematically removed may move from protests to widespread civil disobedience, but that is highly unlikely because in Britain the population are highly controlled and obedient where every indignity is foisted upon them at every election, and they digest it without question or reason.
This is an accurate depiction of Labour’s plans for the future of Britain, and many can see that their current policies are slowly transitioning the country and state into this ideological black hole right now.
London is the capital city that is leading the globe in Third World culture, crime and poverty, and this model of living is in the process of being rolled out to every major city and town in the UK.
I don’t want to live like this. The third world is not welcome in the UK any longer. pic.twitter.com/mj3X6ZLn7T
You may have always wondered what it was like to live in a Third World environment. Well, come to London, and try to live there for a while, and you too can experience the sights, smells, and delights of the Third World yourself.
But, but, you thought the UK was a “first-world” developed country with “first-world” cities? Wrong! London is a Third World city, and its citizens pride themselves in having living standards akin with the Congo, Bangladesh, Abuja and Mogadishu.
“I love this city. Not only the other day, a Third World gentleman was picking the gunk from between his bare toes on the bus, he then flicked the bits around, one piece even landing in an elderly woman’s mouth as she yawned. He then held his nose and blew out the snot from his nostrils onto the floor. Then a charming group of teenagers came onto the bus and knifed a man to death before stealing his mobile phone and his newly bought shiny trainers. To see the blood spurting across the windows from the man’s neck wound was a fantastic sight to behold. Thankfully, he died quite quickly. How colourful this is, to be enriched culturally in this manner. Then one delightful gentleman shouting some foreign language on his speakerphone sat down next to me, after the very loud call, he put on some enchanting ethnic music at high volume for the entire bus to listen to. What a thoughtful person he was to do that,” an observer to the joys of living in London revealed.
China and India are the biggest polluters on earth, pumping out billions of tonnes of carbon emissions and pollution into the atmosphere and environment; impoverishing the UK with ridiculous Net Zero targets will do nothing for the global environment. To even think it would make an ounce of difference is lunacy — welcome to COPOUT30 where China, the USA and India are not even mentioned once.
Britain now has some of the highest energy costs in the globe, which is essentially stifling growth and killing off all business. Net Zero will cost the UK taxpayer £30 billion a year, totalling £803 billion by 2050. Forget about an AI revolution in the UK, because AI needs vast amounts of energy. Under Net Zero, Britain will produce a pitifully negligible amount of energy, which will be punitively expensive and stifle economic growth even further than Labour’s anticapitalist policies are already doing.
All of this, while China, India and the USA continue doing what they are doing and growing their economies at exponential levels whilst not giving two shits about anyone or anything.
A little red robin jumped on a branch today whilst I was out in the garden. He suddenly started speaking with a deep, authoritative voice, furnishing his speech with some serious words of wisdom.
“No government can “fix things” in one term, or maybe two terms. Define the meaning of “fixing things” that Labour ministers cite every five minutes. The truth is, Labour are using the ruse of fixing things to bring in their full socialist/communist agenda, which includes the redistribution of private wealth to the state. For Labour this is what “fixing things” means as they continually moan about a Brexit that never happened, and a Tory socialist government that reigned for fourteen years.
“The arrogance and ineptitude of Labour MPs is mind-boggling to watch each day, as they fuck everything up they touch. They are not fixing things, they are making things worse, and their daily lies are tiresome. Gaslighting the public is a matter of Labour’s evil, nefarious technique, as can be witnessed by their bots on social media.
“The Labour sovietized zealots are automatons programmed to bleat the same phrases ad infinitum, much like deranged Daleks on a suicide machine to nowhere.
“There is no fixing going on here. There is only a very insidious march towards full communism, collectivism and poverty for all in equality, which socialists are obsessed with.
“The only fix that would be a viable one would be that every socialist and Marxist sympathiser is banished and transferred to North Korea. They can eat boiled bark to their hearts content there, the fucking cunt of cunts that Labour are. Send the people who voted for Labour there as well. Send them all. Put them in a large flotilla of ships side by side in soviet equality.”
There will soon be rotting EV cars on sales forecourts. Shipments of EV cars will be left to rust in their containers, EV cars will be abandoned on roads and lay-bys, scrapyards will be full to the brim with EV cars. This is all thanks to Rachel Reeves, a vindictive evil harridan of the worst kind who knows nothing about economies, economic growth or business. The Pay-per-mile Poll Tax on wheels will ruin Britain’s motor industry which is highly invested in EV vehicles and kill off Uber and Bolt, as well as other vehicle based businesses.
According to the plan, starting in 2028, drivers would pay 3p per mile for electric vehicles and 1.5p per mile for plug-in hybrids. Sales of EVs were cut in half as a result of similar initiatives introduced in Iceland and New Zealand in 2024.
The OBR said it estimated that the new EV tax was likely to reduce the number of sales expected to be made by the end of 2030-31 by 440,000 units.
PAY ROAD TAX PLUS PAY PER MILE
In 2024, the automotive-related manufacturing sector had a turnover of £93 billion and a value added of £22 billion to the UK economy. Reckless Reeves is willing to shit on the entire industry for her vindictive lunatic anti-affluence crusade.
Reeves lied on her CV, she lied to voters in the Labour manifesto about raising tax, she lied to businesses, to farmers, and to the motor industry.
There is no comeback from this, the soviet march for more taxation on everything is a step so far into the Laffer Curve that it will seriously damage the UK’s already faltering economy.
If Reeves wants to shoot herself in the foot, let her do it. The motor industry in Britain is finished, and will leave a vast gaping hole in the economy, damaging it for generations.
Prepare for hyperinflation and destitution. Labour’s Britain is a bucket of shit.
No one wants an EV now, and no one will buy one. The EV cars have just lost 95% of their value.
UPDATE
THE ONS TODAY (13 NOVEMBER 2025) JUST RELEASED THE STATE OF THE CAR INDUSTRY IN THE UK. THE MOTOR INDUSTRY IS ALREADY ON ITS LAST LEGS THANKS TO LABOUR’S PUNITIVE POLICIES, AND TO ADD A PAY-PER-MILE TAX ON EV CARS WILL KILL IT OFF FOR CERTAIN.
The event, organised in partnership with Gaia-X Hub Portugal, TICE.PT, and Porto Digital, will bring together an international consortium of policymakers, innovators, industry leaders, and researchers to demonstrate how trusted, federated digital ecosystems are evolving from conceptual frameworks into operational infrastructures supporting artificial intelligence (AI), interoperability, and cross-sector collaboration throughout Europe.
“Gaia-X has progressed from concept to large-scale implementation,” said Ulrich Ahle, CEO of Gaia-X. “At this year’s Summit, we are no longer speaking about theoretical constructs. We will demonstrate how trust, interoperability, and innovation are functioning as operational enablers — forming the technical and governance backbone for real-world digital ecosystems. These systems are already powering data spaces that foster transparent, accountable, and sovereign AI development across Europe.”
The Summit will commence with opening addresses from Catherine Jestin, Chairwoman of Gaia-X and Executive Vice President for Digital & Information Management at Airbus, Bernardo Correia, Secretary of State for Digitalisation of Portugal, and Thomas Jarzombek, Parliamentary Secretary of State at Germany’s Ministry of Digitalisation.
Their keynote interventions will outline the strategic, political, and technical direction of Gaia-X, setting the context for two days of demonstrations, case studies, and ecosystem showcases illustrating the initiative’s growing impact on Europe’s digital competitiveness and data sovereignty.
Throughout the two days, participants can explore three parallel theatres. The Tech Theatre, Economic Theatre, and Partners Theatre, which offer deep-dive sessions into the technical, economic, and strategic dimensions of Gaia-X. The Tech Theatre will feature workshops on the Danube and Loire releases, open-source innovation, and interoperability mechanisms, while the Economic Theatre, hosted by Paris Dauphine University and the Gaia-X Institute, will invite data space projects to have their economic models evaluated by leading economists. Partners Theatre will feature collaborative discussions between Gaia-X and its key partners, like Cloud Temple, deltaDAO, neusta aerospace, IRT SystemX.
“Gaia-X stands precisely at the intersection of trust and innovation,” noted Catherine Jestin. “This Summit exemplifies how openness, transparency, and shared European values are being translated into interoperable, functioning ecosystems. Our ongoing work on Dataspaces and Trust Frameworks represents the next phase — enabling individuals, industries, and public institutions to collaborate seamlessly across organisational and national boundaries, within a verifiable, trusted digital infrastructure.”
Echoing this sentiment, Thomas Jarzombek emphasized Gaia-X’s geopolitical and economic significance:
“The mission of Gaia-X has never been more relevant. By aligning companies and organisations under a common digital trust and governance model, Gaia-X contributes directly to Europe’s strategic goals of digital sovereignty and technological competitiveness. I look forward to this year’s Summit focus on AI and data sovereignty, which are essential pillars for Europe’s autonomous digital future.”
A central highlight of the 2025 programme will be the official presentation of the Gaia-X Trust Framework 3.0, the “Danube” Release, unveiled by Christoph Strnadl, CTO of Gaia-X, and Roland Fadrany, COO of Gaia-X.
This new release introduces extensibility mechanisms designed to automate compliance, governance, and interoperability across multiple sectors, domains, and geographies. By enabling dynamic adaptation to sector-specific and regional requirements, the Danube release advances Gaia-X’s core mission: the creation of scalable, federated digital ecosystems capable of secure data exchange and cross-domain trust propagation.
“With the Danube release, establishing and maintaining trust — both within and between ecosystems — becomes an automated, standards-based process,” explained Christoph Strnadl. “Governance policies, compliance checks, and certification procedures can now be expressed and executed through machine-readable rules, enabling regional and domain-level customisation while ensuring full semantic and operational interoperability across all Gaia-X-compliant ecosystems.”
Roland Fadrany added:
“The ‘Danube’ Release marks a decisive milestone in scaling trust across domains and regions. Its architecture introduces a ‘Bring Your Own Rules’ (BYOR) paradigm, allowing ecosystems to adapt the Gaia-X Trust Framework to their own governance and compliance contexts without losing alignment with the broader federated model. This capability transforms Gaia-X from a primarily European initiative into a global reference architecture for trusted digital collaboration, spanning industries such as manufacturing, healthcare, finance, and energy.”
In essence, Gaia-X Summit 2025 will not only highlight the progress of Europe’s data infrastructure vision but also demonstrate the technical maturity of interoperability frameworks that enable cross-sector data sharing, AI training, and policy automation within a unified, sovereign digital environment, positioning Gaia-X as a cornerstone of the emerging global trusted data economy.
Highlights of the Gaia-X Summit 2025:
Gaia-X Trust Framework 3.0 – “Danube” Release: Introduction of the first extensibility mechanisms for domain and geographic expansion, allowing the automation of arbitrary ecosystem rulebooks in a technically compatible manner.
Pioneering Data Space Projects: Two strategic sectors — aerospace and nuclear — are building their digital future on the Gaia-X Trust Framework.
Gaia-X Catalogue of Catalogues: A live showcase of navigating Gaia-X-compliant ecosystems and their services currently on the market.

Register now to join a global community of policymakers, innovators, and digital leaders in Porto to experience how Digital Ecosystems in Action are shaping a trusted, intelligent, and interoperable future for Europe and beyond.
In one swift move, the evil Labour government has disincentivised the sale of EV vehicles, killed off the taxi business, killed off the delivery business, and will contribute to increased inflation in the UK. The current Labour plans call for charging electric car drivers 3p per mile in addition to other road taxes; the venal lunatic Chancellor will make the announcement on November 26.
The scheme, set to kick in from 2028 after a consultation, will mean the average driver faces paying an extra £250 a year whilst still being forced to pay road tax. For high mileage EV running businesses, this will mean punitive costs that will completely eviscerate their profit margins and render their business as useless.
Who will want to buy an EV now? No one.
The motor industry will also tank now because they are heavily invested in EVs. No one will want an EV, and the industry will be left with vehicles rotting on their fucking forecourts and warehouses.
Not only will the huge costs be prohibitive to own an EV, but the state will track and log every journey, adding to the surveillance state apparatus.
There is no other option now but to leave the UK for many businesses, and EV owners.
The evil Chancellor Reeves has just killed every part of any form of aspiration in the UK.
This will also result in reverse net-zero because people will be dumping their Pay-Per-Mile EVs like no business now. No point in owning one. The value of EVs are now negligible…a useless piece of fucking junk.
Prepare for hyperinflation as the huge Pay-Per-Mile costs are pushed onto the consumers by desperate businesses on the back foot and close to going out of business altogether thanks to a greedy, evil Marxist political party called Labour.
