    Brexit, for once some facts.

    That’s hilarious. We are such a formidable world power we can’t even make it and find it necessary to ask another country to build it for us. I think the day of the fighter plane is over, or it certainly will be by the time this thing gets off the ground. We need to be thinking about systems...

    Kalkhoff/Panasonic charger

    I’ve checked my battery charger. There is no voltage output when the battery is not sat on it. It must detect the presence of the battery via one or more of the pins.

    Is there a WTF button?

    Kalkhoff/Panasonic charger

    I have one of the old type Panasonic chargers. I don’t use it often these days, because I bought an after market battery with a plug-in high-speed charger which doesn’t require the battery to be removed from the bike. I will check the pins to see if there is any voltage output. They can be a...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Tricky. Corbyn was nearer to the PLO graves than the victim's memorial, but I suppose he could have been on his way to the memorial.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I’ve not really paid much attention to the Corbyn story. I saw a photograph of him supposedly holding a wreath to lay on the graves of people responsible for murder. Is there more to it? Has the photograph been photoshopped and Corbyn’s Head placed on someone else’s shoulders? I’m not sure...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    The fact that she is stubborn, difficult and has no capacity whatsoever to take advice. It’s a hopeless situation, because who is there to replace her? We are stuck with the dregs of the political system, because the current dregs aren’t quite as bad as the alternative dregs.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    It might sound like a strange thing to say, but I’ve always been of the opinion that retirement is actually going to be hard work. Three months in and that is proving to be true. It takes a lot of work to ensure that you have structure and purpose to your time once retired. So far it’s great. :-)

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I’ve never understood why the Hamiltons have retained a public profile. I know they came to prominence as a result of scandal, but that was many years ago now. They don’t have any particular talent and aren’t funny or entertaining, so why do they still remain in the public eye?

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Boris Johnson is no fool. He is a nasty & scheming character who is playing the public for fools. His latest burqa stunt has nothing to do with any heartfelt sentiments which are in tune with public opinion. His words are carefully chosen to further divide and damage his chosen political party...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Whilst I agree, I think the mood of the country as a whole is tending to shift towards remain, I don’t think it’s due to older leave voters dying. I think it’s mainly due to even more people losing faith and confidence in the UK government. I think people are starting to perceive the EU as...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    All of the accusations regarding who is to blame and who is at fault are irrelevant. I see some MPs are now saying the French are being obstructive and preventing a deal. This too is irrelevant. We were promised by parliament that we would leave the EU and prosper as a result of leaving. They...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    If you had read my post properly and thoroughly, you would have identified that the words were in fact someone else’s and I was asking the question, is there any truth within the words. For that reason, I can’t identify the petty rules. That is a third person’s perception, so you will need to...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Is there any truth in the following? I know many of the product manufacturing bases have moved whilst we have been EU members, so how can people say that leaving will cost jobs? (All of below is a copy & paste from someone else words). Cadbury moved factory to Poland 2011 with EU grant. Ford...

    I totally agree and very well put. Charity, or rather charity CEO pay, is another national scandal.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I’m usually pretty quick to apologise if I have made a mistake, but in this case one is not due because you are very wrong. I understand that the entrance criteria demands that candidates achieve a specified score as a condition of entry onto a particular course. However, that specified...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Again lots of words, but when we boil the ........ We are left with a situation where people are being admitted onto courses with no minimum standard for entry. The world where that is a good thing does not exist. It’s a very bad thing in the real world. This is half the problem. People talk...
