Even if I were to accept that it is a very powerful, legally-compliant motor, the rest of the set-up is hardly revolutionary. Bikes of this type tend to appeal to a very small minority of EAPC users and at 4K for the pleasure, I can't imagine too many takers for it. The gearbox will not be...

Sorry old chap, I disagree for the simple reason that politicians have always been fair game in that regard. Cartoonists, stand-up comics, Shakespeare, old-time music hall comedians, satirists and lampooners have all traded heavily on the political class and even the politicians know that it...

So much in the discussion in regard to 'Brexit' requires a sense of history to understand fully the ramifications of such a decision. Clearly OG, you have the necessary experience and are sufficiently well-read on history and politics to pontificate with credibility on the daily shifts in media...

This is Sarah Olney, the representative of the policy-free, laughable demo-rat party, who ousted Zak (I'm not as thick as I look) Goldsmith from his parliamentary seat after he relinquished it in protest about something most folks can't even remember. The pic on the left is the brand-new MP for...

The people of Richmond Park and North Kingston, never noted for their socialist sympathies, have decided that Zak Goldsmith is not the man to represent them in the H of C. Instead, they have given their support to someone who bears a strange resemblance to Shergar and represents the Liberal...

Nor my dad! He did like his tripe and onions which my mum, a butcher, would prepare for him but not for herself! Tom

Possibly but it's EU food too. I just love food and never consider its politics before consuming it.;) If 'Brexit' occurs, a lot of people might need to curtail their intake but I shall just spend more time abroad and on cruise ships which I book in the USA at dollar prices.:p Tom

After all the black pudding and other cuisine delicacies, here is some more food but this time it's food for thought........ Tom

I'll pass on that lot 'derf' but it got me wondering if, to help the post-'Brexit' economy, we can perhaps export thousands of tons of tripe around the world. After all, there's an abundance of it in this forum thread alone! I reckon they'd be queuing up.......or perhaps that should be...

I'm a huge fan of black pudding and the whole puddings from Costco are very good....and cheap! I'm willing to have a go at jellied eels but so far, I have never had them. I suspect I might not be too keen on those, though. As for the rest of those menu items you suggest 'flecc', all I can say...

.......and with a language that predates English as we know it. Mind you, English as we know it, still hasn't fully caught on in some parts of the kingdom! Tom:D

I had occasion to visit N Yorkshire a couple of weeks ago Dave. My satnav took me there but I got a little bit concerned when it directed me north of Watford....it all gets a bit strange up there even though it's part of the EU and the local language is in fact a kind of English. Some words...

I see the tory media has leapt to headline an improvement in the value of sterling as if it were down to some shrewd strategic plan from the British pro-'Brexit' camp. More likely, it is the case that the € and the $ have dipped a little due to matters other than the British intention but...

The nonsense of the whole 'Brexit' concept continues, still in the absence of any strategic plan that the proponents/government of the day would wish to share with the nation. This piece from Vox Political draws attention once more to the kind of thought processes from those entrusted with...

Brilliantly made point KTM! - Probably wasted on the particular contributor with such extraordinary views who caused you to respond, Tom

One of the inevitable consequences of exiting the EU is that many rights and entitlements we have come to take for granted over recent years will disappear for those lucky enough to still have a job, in particular. Many of those benefits were won for us by great trades unions and a lot of what...

That rings a bell with me. But hey! It takes all sorts. Tom

Generally speaking, the kind of people who support the notion of a federal European state are not racist. Now, hatred of foreign peoples would probably discourage haters from subscribing to any such venture. There is a serious question which arises from the fact that we know there is a large...

Ah yeah but!.......yeah........well, no actually; I can't find anything to argue about in your post at all, 'Danidl'. I'm sure some others would though. I remember the soundbite, not all that long ago, from several 'distinguished' politicians that it was imperative that the UK should not only...

There's a nice analogy here from James O'Brien of LBC radio: Tom
