this is a solution in search of a problem. No vehicle has such a restriction. .. except the number painted on a sign ...

Yep!. I had Rheumatic fever as a 5 year old, and was on my back for months . The fear was heart valve damage,so I was forbidden to run for a few years after. One thing my recent echogram , some 65 years later, showed was no valve damage.

On the CV19 front, the mink farm story is extremely serious. If it succeeds in jumping backwards and forwards into wild populations of ferrets ,stoats it will be endemic, and impossible to eradicate. The UK and now NI have banned traffic from Denmark. I recall that a number of months ago...

I expect the rank and file to be more Republican with the emphasis on Fundamentalism . I now expect the commissioned grades to be more nuanced . .. republican and conservative with a little r and big C They have taken oaths to the Constitution , and will have taken history lessons about the...

Every trade union vote I have ever done was via a postal vote and was extremely fair . It requires at least three layers of envelopes and multiple signature checks. The ballot papers and the envelopes were distributed by union officials,and had to be signed for. These lists were sent off to the...

Yes. BS it should not take this long, except for the US anti socialism mindset .. reduced public services, reduced civil servants, limited polling stations, and the REFUSAL to allow even preliminary testing of the adminstration for postal ballots UNTIL after the in person ballots were counted...

Do you even read the rubbish you pick up?. Three points .. that guy was FIRED by the Biden campaign, and it occurred in TEXAS.. which is now in the Trump camp. So if something was done, it would not affect the outcome And finally , Even if something were done, and the presumption was that it...

.. oh I don't know, Biden might visit Finnegans in Cooley ,as he did 4 years ago,and Johnson could nip over the border for a pint.

..yeah, I noticed that too, 4 months ago that didn't happen ...Is it Brexit?

At this stage I am having sympathy for poor old Rudi, and Barr ..well Actually NO!. Both will have to answer for their overreach. I think Barr will have the harder task, as he was a sworn official.

Exactly, so lots of polling stations each with low density of people , or even Marquee tents .. Come off it , this is not rocket science. . I have never been in a polling station where there was more than 20 people and that scattered over the dimensions of a full school hall, And of course...

Nothing but nothing is better than a human being going into a polling station. Showing ID, and then having their hand stamped with indelible ink , ..which takes about a week to wear off, and getting an un numbered paper ballot and using a pencil. Then putting the paper into a big bin. If they...

Implausible. Whereas looking at 250,000 potentially avoidable deaths tends to concentrate the minds of even the very selfish. Many will be seeing that curbing the epidemic is the best way of getting the US economy back up and running

What is happening is a repudiation of Trump the person and personality, but not of conservative party values.

Barry and VR ..stop the fake news !. Look at NBC, MSBC,CBS, ABC,CNN and yes even FOX. Listen to GOP Senators prevaricate and dissimulate..but not endorse the ramblings from the WH.

But at a cost of 5% of the population. That is 3 million deaths. As I have posted before, the assumption that fragments of RNA found in sewer water is evidence of anything is suspect. The only or most valid measure of death rate is anyone who has died this year, after a Positive Diagnosis of...

Agreed ... In general. However there can be plenty of 100% fatal infections WHO is constantly publishing data on outbreaks Fortunately the very quickly fatal ones self limit. . Every bug has two goals, somewhat contradictory .. reproduce as fast as possible ..which basically kills off hosts...

I came across a quote that was too good not to share. It referred to Trump and his legal challenges of today. "... He is clutching at straws , like a scarecrow interfering with himself..."

My days of seeking to influence other peoples behaviour are now over. Now I have the luxury of telling the truth without fear or favour. I suspect that Mr Trump has a certain level of charm. I have dealt with charming people .. It is not necessarily an admirable trait. Hitler apparently...

Did I say that people were stupid ?.. I made a conscious decision not to visit the USA during the Trump regime, but I am tolerant and can accept that any society can make a mistake.. I would have considered visiting again had Trump got 20% maybe even 30% of the vote , but when virtually 50%...
