The party of tax-cheating, multi-millionaires has abandoned its hugely acclaimed (by all the wrong people) academies policy and has done so very quietly in the hope that no-one notices. To that end, their media friends are keeping any mention of the matter very low-key but I'm sure most people...

Those gullible enough to believe political slogans such as, 'Good for the economy', 'Good for business' and 'Good for Britain' when uttered by politicians are susceptible to all political rhetoric. Moreover, those believing stuff like 'Everyone benefits from the ''trickle-down" effect' will...

I still have the older version of their system and I like the rapid recharging aspect but the on-off nature of the power delivery doesn't suit my needs as well as my other torque sensor bikes. My disappointment about the new kit is largely on account of the price which will ensure that Cytronex...

You obviously haven't been giving the forum your full and undivided attention Kirstin as this has already been discussed briefly back in September.:rolleyes: It's here if the link works but I have never tried to link back to previous threads before: Cytronex Kit Tom

£45+ billion of taxpayers' money hasn't cured the problem with RBS! Austerity for the masses and bonuses for the casino banking class - it's the tory way! http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-37796446 Tom

Shocking but why should anyone be surprised? This is exactly the kind of business model beloved by the party of multi-millionaires who deposit funds in offshore tax havens. Not being a lawyer, I can't tell if it is tax avoidance or tax evasion but why would anyone behave in such a way unless...

I'm sure you don't need me to remind you of the absence of nous among the British political class - today's announcement speaks volumes! Unfortunately, half the population are so brainwashed, they cannot grasp the folly of this government's direction. Worse, they actually believe the crap...

Crikey! If we let the tory muppets carry on with any more negotiations, Britain PLC will be bankrupt before we even get to the point of triggering Article 50. I should think quite a few carmakers will be more than a little disturbed at the news of Nissan's assurances from HM Government. This...

This, from the political party which refused to provide any financial assistance to our own car-making industry years ago means the taxpayer will be supporting a Japanese company which threatened to move abroad. Have I got that right or am I missing anything? Tom

I sincerely hope that comes to pass 'trex'. Tom

Brexit - the essential stuff you need to know: Tom

I have just been reading the comments on Heathrow from Chris Grayling, one of the most ineffectual front-bench politicians I can recall. Politicians and business tycoons have lied through their teeth repeatedly over the years regarding the issue of airport expansion in the south-east. In the...

Whoops! My apologies but fortunately, the edit facility was still available so I have corrected my error.:oops: Tom

Is this kind of headline just bluff and bluster from certain big business concerns or is it really true? My own opinion is that it is probably the latter but I'm old and whatever happens in the future won't really affect my lifestyle if I'm still around. Should it come to pass, I shall feel...

Is it time then to call in the spelling and grammar police? I have been called a lot worse than 'idiot' so I shan't be overly upset if readers of these pages view me as such for signing off as I have always done, necessary or not. Tom

And now the mayor steps in with his view..... http://www.standard.co.uk/news/london/sadiq-khan-heathrow-expansion-is-wrong-decision-for-london-and-britain-a3378251.html I can't wait for Goldsmith, Johnson and Khan, (sounds like a firm of solicitors), to lie down in front of the bulldozers! Tom

Now Tesco acknowledge what most of us already know.......well, no hist Sherlock! http://www.standard.co.uk/news/uk/tesco-boss-says-prices-will-rise-following-brexit-slump-in-pound-a3378086.html Tom

How many kangaroo steaks can you eat though....really? I suppose there must be something we can sell them which would help our balance of trade....hand-crafted pieces of willow perhaps.....emm, maybe not! They seem to do ok with what they have. Tom

Does anyone notice a slight contradiction in philosophy here? I'm becoming very confused. Tom
