Just carry on, you are amusing me. As the first ever member of pedelecs.co.uk 17 years ago, all members who have been in here any length of time will not recognise the subject of your ranting and raving and will increasingly think you have lost it. Just remember the old saying, "Those whom the...

A strange anti-semite who has so many Jews in his family, including his sister's husband. But like you I go by outcomes so more an anti unacceptable behaviour person. All I know of Momentum is that with entirely honest means they transformed my constituency from always marginal into one with...

And I met Russell Scott in 2007 at an e-bike event in the New Forest. .

Of course he would, he's another pseudo Labour leader like Tony Blair. They'll win the next GE, but not because they deserve to, only because the current Tories deserve to lose it. .

I wasn't accusing you John, just suggesting the possibility, and it was unfortunate that your reply had further mention of Sadiqs ethnicity and faith, even though not negative. It is one of the least understood aspects of institutional racism that any unnecessary mention of those is often...

Me too, and it is what angers me, since the critics are so obviously unaware of how effective he is and how skilled he's been in negotiating to London's advantage past this Tory government over the last eight years. His is a level of competence not found in the government, as their disastrous...

The exact opposite is your reading, and given the way in which you so readily descend into ranting and raving against all sorts of restrictions and laws that others accept but you see as unreasonable, I wasn't surprised by it. It can also read as being exactly what I understood John to say...

The frequency of marches we have long suffered, a curse of being the capital city. Even the huge anti nuclear weapons ones of the 1960s were hardly the first of them. Oswald Moseley's widely supported pro Nazi ones of the 1930s for example hardly filled our large Jewish population with...

Because it was so clearly expressed. Widely hated? What utter nonsense when he has just been so overwhelmingly re-elected. He hasn't allowed knife crime to become endemic. He, like the police commissioners is made impotent by what is allowed to do anything about it, such as the...

"as a non Londoner I see a lot which makes me glad I don't live in the area and Khan's ethnic background or religious leanings don't make the top of the list at all. " What else does that mean but a loss of trust in him solely due to his ethnicity and religious beliefs? And you avoided the...

I didn't accuse, I asked the question. But your response certainly justifies my asking it. You are glad you dont live in this area because of Sadiq's ethnic background and religious leanings? Those are simply appalling views, condemning a man and his ability to do a job due to his ethnic...

Why? What is it political bias? Or just blatant racism. It amazes me that those so far away and obviously knowing nothing about him or the circumstances he's addressing in London have such hopelessly misguided opinions. .

Delighted that Sadiq Khan has convincingly won a third four year term as London mayor, well deserved. This keeps our very successful traffic and transport policies on track and means ULEZ will be, permanent, as it should be. .

So much depends on status though. In August 2023 when those rates were over 6% a London friend buying a London house got a 4.5% mortgage. How come? These plus points made all the difference: Previous good mortgage record. He's a serving police officer. Married. With a primary school...

Buy inflatables to set up in business shipping migrants across the channel? .

That we were all once children makes it simple. Every child can either be a lovable little angel or a hateful little tyke. We don't change, so either love or hate according to the mood of the moment. Easy, keep gender out of language. Instead of he/her or she/him, just use it/they. .

Not even that. Front wheel drives can't do wheelies, only uselessly spin. .

Look at my opening answer in post 2, this fully covered by the below: "The Torq and Quando motor spindle nuts are 18 mm, a size often not included in the average spanner set which commonly jumps from 17 to 19 mm. Separate spanners are expensive and even open ended spanners are often too long...

It's not only the DfT to blame, they get pulled from pillar to post of by others, For example, when the e-scooter trial was announced, the government's wishes then were that any eventual permission for them should follow the two EU rules for them: Maximum speed 20kph (12.5mph). Power rating...

Consumer demand is not a reason to say yes. There's a large consumer demand for guns, just look at the USA's healthy market for them and I bet they'd sell well here too. No-one is doing nothing, all you want was allowed very long ago and still is. It just means registration and some...
