It's not a problem, our EU exit after independance will ensure powerful vacuum cleaners for all!

Or our exit after a No vote as well, once UKIP take over, so there really is no problem.

FFS,what the hell next.

I'm voting yes- I love my hoover! LMAO.

This level of legislation/regulation is ridiculous, it's a small step from this to limiting engine size in cars!

....and this is at the same time as we are experiencing a slow down in global warming that cannot be explained and is expected to last 10 years

So - things are better climate wise than we predicted but don't worry, it's just a blip and doom and gloom will be back on target in 10 years.

It's not global warming it's "climate change" which explains any minute difference in temperature from last hour/day/week/month/year/decade.... It's all down to that nasty plant food (CO2) don't you know?

We are going to save the world by using less powerful vacs, whilst...........

CHINA & INDIA ARE BUILDING 4 NEW COAL POWER PLANTS – EVERY WEEK

Precisely! If we didn't do that they'd have to build 5

Mean while China is also building nuclear power and is predicted to be the worlds largest renewables producer (prob already is if you include hydro power) to ensure a level of sustainability in energy supply, while we sit back, relax, and claim it's others problems because "we won't much difference"..

I suppose the main "advantage" China has in these issues is their political structure and will (as in, there's one will.!)

Not overly concerned about the EU's plans for hoovers. I sold mine last week as it was just collecting dust. Lol

My Grandson picked up the Hoover and his father said "put that down it's mummy's".

This is one rule I actually don't mind. Surely it will prompt development and innovation to produce the same suction with a less powerful motor, similar to what is happening with car development and all the hybrid tech that is around.

I actually don't believe that global warming is an issue but what affects us all is the cost of energy/fuel whether that's electricity Gas or Petrol/Diesel. It's not cheap these days so any push to develop more efficient technology is a win win in my book.

Technology will keep progressing...........
