    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Got it from a German supplier, cheaper than advertised in China??? £380 including 400wh battery, delivery and claimed all taxes paid??? (expecting a begging letter off customs tho) Had to ream bottom bracket out slightly to get it in but otherwise all easy.. Tried it without pedals or gear shift...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Ye Yes, got brake levers and throttle but wanted to use one of brake switches as a kill cord.. If kids fall over, throttle hits something then a kill cord would be better than brake switch.??? (kids trials bikes all have kill cords) Thought somebody might do one that plugs directly to display...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Always seems absurd to me that whatever it is you wish to buy, from Yachts and Windsurfers to Cameras and ebikes and everything between there is virtually nothing made here. Just bought Windsurfers from Slovenia, EBike kits and foil boards from China. Even including carriage, Vat and import tax...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    You are dreaming again Woosh. Yes, agreed BJ might go... Might. Then again.. Might not. Starmer has to get Labour in power, not next week, not with polls as they are but when Tories call the election. At least 2 years away. Starmer will never be PM...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    It's nothing to do with accepting it and all to do with how things play out... I actually said a little while ago BJ's days are numbered, just seems to me things are not as cut and dried as you suggest. If he was certainly going, he'd have gone already. Not sure the "investigation" will affect...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Thing is though the Boris is our saviour propoganda machine hasn't been fired up yet. Noticed today infections are down to 88k (144k last sat), Boris' booster programme is still going and according to the BS, UK is in strongest position in Europe (and beyond) against Omicron... FTSE is rising...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Thing about Boris, which ultimately could be his down fall, is the fact he doesn't actually have a particular political leaning (OK he's a tory but has frequently used socialist policies) and neither has he built a group of devout followers to back him whatever happens.(Corbynistas, Blairites)...

    He seems to be keeping his head down. Probably means plans are afoot. His dislike of Boris is well publicised but whether he, s in contention or not I have no idea. His problem is he has criticised the lot of them so doubt he's popular with any, but make him PM and watch rest swoon...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Probably, but not yet.Over two years to election... Doubt the red wall will be changed one way or another by having Sunak or Truss in his place. Chances of Starmer getting in no 10 are still remote.Probably worse.. His manifesto will see to that.(not forgetting Nandy, Rayner, Corbyn and the...

    Wonder what his tone would be if sat next to her, bit of a pillock isn't he.. And if it were Rayner he was sat next to she, d floor him.

    Still think it's Sunak next.. He at least looks competent... And doesn't drink or party.. Which might be a problem at no 10.

    D I thought Starmer's absence and reappearance was very timely, given his pub visits and drinks, indoors??? Which nobody reminded him of other day??? Very odd.
