You, I or anybody else doesn't know that. The reason is because nobody knows who entered the EU during that crazy period. There may have been no terrorists amongst them and their arrival has had no detrimental effect in terms of security, or there may have been hundreds of terrorist amongst them...

.......and can we now have these words rearranged in a order which makes sense? It's like doing one of those word search puzzles.

If the free unchecked movement of people within the EU is such a good idea and some on here view checking as being racist, why are the French now causing a massive backlog of travellers in Dover whilst they carry out checks on people entering the country? Are they being racist? Should the French...

If you pay < £1000 I would perhaps agree with you. If you by a Kalkhoff costing in excess of £2000 and it only lasts two years, I would say that you have done very badly indeed. Buy something with a Bosch motor for the same, or less and get five years use. It's what they call a no-brainer. The...

How many motors did you get through during the ride?

Pretty much the same here. £130K will earn £7.2K in gross rent (5% ish). Property values are peaking too, maybe even falling back a bit after the rush to buy pre April.

I think the buy to let market has been driven to some extent by low interest rates. Add to that banks are steeling the tax relief off ISAs and there aren't many places for savers to invest. Housing has given me a good return and boosted to my retirement plans. I think the property market is a...

It's simply disgusting that Kalkhoff leave their customers high & dry like this after 2 years. You should reasonably expect a minimum of 5 years use from a bike cost in excess of £2000 & £3000 in some cases. Kalkhoff used to be a good brand, but this motor saga has destroyed that image. Anyone...

I agree with all that you have written...........apart from: I don't see them as a propaganda organ for the Conservative Party. I think the BBC are politically biased, but my perception is that they are rather left leaning and anti Conservative. I think it's interesting how different people...

Sounds like you will be much happier in France. Good luck.

I have this image in my mind of you venturing out of your house wrapped in tinfoil with a collider on your head, to protect yourself from the governments brain washing rays. :-) I'm sure you don't. Trilby, tweed jacket, preposterous moustache and a stout pair of brogues like the rest of us. :-)

I didn't realise they had a hybrid power system. I do know hybrids use a heat-pump type system to cool the batteries and provide heat inside the vehicle, but that's no good when you want to cool inside. As you say an air conditioning system will make quite a demand on the limited amount out of...

Six years may be the case, but I don't think it will go away. The referendum was a decade in the build up. There is long standing discontent with the EU (rightly or wrongly) and people aren't going to think, ok I've had my vote, I'll forget about it now. If they try the wait and forget tactic...

It's not unusual to not have opening windows. Many coaches don't, they have air conditioning instead. Have these busses been fitted with air-con?

What sort of MPM (miles per motor) are you getting? So bad is the Impulse motor, I hear this is a new figure to be quoted by Kalkhoff.

Just stick your head through your office door and into the 50 Cycles workshop and ask your mechanic about the chain. He'll be able to offer advice. Get him to drop you a new motor in as well whilst you're at it,because that will need replacing before the chain.

Whatever the consequences of leaving, I think that not leaving and disregarding the public vote will have a far greater adverse consequences. The public will blame everything on the decision not to leave the EU and the anti establishment/government feeling will gain impetus with the more...

Although we may be out side of the euro, I seem to remember the last Greek crisis we ended up paying nearly €1 billion through the back door. Your prediction that we will be outside the EU trading block or subject to tariffs is speculation. You or I do not know what the eventual outcome will...

Except that in 6 to 12 months the failing basket case economies of Italy, Greece, Spain and Portugal will be putting ever more pressure on the Euro as they bleed more money from the EU. This is a millstone dragging the EU and all the countries tethered to it to the bottom of the septic tank. We...

Derv, you make no sense. You talk in a sort of code to which no one has the key.
