    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I have already said no for myself to a repeat of the current booster, since I really do not want to suffer a repeat of the 15 often painful tachycardia heart attacks the booster caused over an extended period. A side effect for those vulnerable like myself that Pfizer knew about but hushed up. .

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Only yesterday I listened to a 27th June edition of the radio program "Bottom Line" titled "How to run a petrol station". It was largely about the present situation and it appears the old price war days are over, it being more about watching everyone else and price matching. It's difficult to...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I did say "some" high standards. At no time does debate in the Lords remotely deteriorate to the lows of the Commons. Johnson's shouted bluster and pomposity would get short shrift in the Lords. As for other behavioural areas, most of the Lords are pretty good at simulation, so long as their...

    Sunak as PM and Mordaunt as his Chancellor, that would be fun. I fear though that the nation is about to be trussed up. .

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I don't see Johnson as House of Lords material, it's a place where there are still some high standards maintained by most members. .

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I knew, but was nonetheless interested in how the media reacted to it. OTT was the answer. Enough of this sort of news and it might even penetrate the Tory Party membership. .

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Truss will become stubborn Thatcher mark 2 if elected, wrecking the economy even more. Sadly the party members are daft enough to elect her, as ever failing to understand the implications of what she is saying. .

    Being no longer able to put clothing down as parliamentary expenses since those scandals, they buy ready to wear instead of using a tailor. .

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Italy is one place where there can never be any political agreement. Every meal I've been to in the homes of Italian wings of my family and others has ended with explosive political argument between the males present. Not involving me, I'm too familiar with this to be still present ! .

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    With the three very hot days over I'm able to see the exact cost of using the Aircon unit with todays high electricity prices. It was £3.25 including VAT (£1.08 per day) to have comfort in the mid 20s instead of the up to 37 degrees here, well worth it. I bought the unit during the very hot...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Tory MPs range from being effectively Lib Dem to definitely Fascist, so I agree in that respect. However Labour MPs have long ranged from effectively Lib Dem to Communist in Marxist /Trotskyite forms, so I'm not sure that they are any less divided. The solution of course is proportional...

    There of course was a sensible choice as Tory Party leader, but they were all too dumb to see it. He still could be since the PM does not have to be an elected MP, but I doubt he'd change from his current academic career at Yale for this particular Tory Party. .

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    The MPs who elected May and have let Truss get this far are also Tory Party members, it's always their members responsible. I agree on stitching up the right wing, there is no alternative other than economic suicide, given the scale of our debt. The only certainty is that we the electorate are...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I don't think anything can be clear while the Tory party members have the final say, or even any say at all. After the serially incompetent May and the appalling Johnson, can they be thought capable of delivering a sensible choice? .

    Whether used or not, a six year old pedelec lithium battery is usually at or near to end of life. However, as the seller is friend, ask him if you can have a one or two day trial on the sort of local trips you are planning. If it completes those ok with plenty left in the battery, it may...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    The astonishing thing is how long that took. I had Johnson accurately summed up from very early in this millennium. He isn't right or left wing, he isn't anything other than being in Boris Johnson's interests, uniquely selfish. As I've posted many times, a sad apology for a human being. .

    You mean someone like Boris Johnson? His high emotional IQ enabled him to con through almost all his life until now. .
