    Leaving the EU

    So glad we rejected the Euro. I've been in Italy and Swizerland for the past week. There is a strong anti EU feeling in Italy and I imagine the same is true in other EU countries. This of course is not being reported and is being censored from the news. If the UK vote to leave next month, I...

    Leaving the EU

    Cameron never wanted the referendum, never wanted out of Europe and never believed he could secure any meaningful EU reform. He only did and said all of these things because he was running scared of Nigel Farage and UKIP. He like his glossy, tax payer funded pro EU leaflet, is full of lies and...

    Leaving the EU

    Are you actually suggesting that there is irony in the case of the U.K. which is small by comparison to the EU as a whole, wanting to leave, against the wishes of the larger EU body? And the irony originates from the fact that I am promoting proportional representation and if we took the EU as a...

    Leaving the EU

    I What you are proposing is a return to 18th century Rotten Boroughs. People died in pursuit of overturning that system. I'm sure the EU (Germany) would love to have total freedom to rule over us without fear of losing power regardless of what they do. This is what they are working towards...

    Leaving the EU

    I can't believe what I'm reading here. You can't extrapolate and award power and influence based on a "what if?" scenario. That's not only wrong, it's dangerous as well, but I'm sure Jimmy Crankie will agree with you.

    Leaving the EU

    Yes, what you describe is indeed a failing of the first past the post electoral system. A thin 12% divided by a fat 5% multiplied by Nicola Stugeon's fanny diameter all raised to the power of George Osborne's Jap's eye doesn't really work for me. I'm a simple man, so let's consider the...

    Still think it's a mistake.

    Could Strava be used to catch the dongled?

    This "quick buck" disease is not restricted to the eBike sector in the uk, It's more widespread than that. The title, "Treasure Island" wasn't granted to us for nothing.

    Leaving the EU

    I'm not sure about either of them, but there is no mystery surrounding their popularity. Both speak in a way which reflects the feelings and concerns of the mass population. All the others keep, taking things on board, drawing lines under things, move forward, get it, understand, hear what the...

    Leaving the EU

    It might surprise you to learn that I quite admire Jeremy Corbin. I admire the fact that he is not afraid to state who he is and what he represents. This is done in the full knowledge that it may not be a popular view and is likely to earn him a kicking in the press. That requires moral courage...

    Leaving the EU

    A bit like the BBC / LabCon and their hate campaign against UKIP then. The difference here being that Khan has been recorded on video footage for all to see and to make a decision on. I still don't think the man is fit for public office. Too many question marks over him. London is sinking fast.

    Leaving the EU

    Which democratic system is this? Is it the one where a party secures 12.6% if the vote and those voters are then represented by 1 MP, whilst anther party secures only 4.7% of the vote and those voters are then represented by 56 MPs? Or is it the democratic process where the party who has the...

    Leaving the EU

    This is no different to the smear tactics used against UKIP. Tactics which I'm sure that Sadiq Khan would be more than content to use. The only difference being that UKIP candidates have the good grace to stand down at the slightest hint of anything which may damage the party. So as far as...

    Leaving the EU

    I'm fine thank you trex and I hope that you are too. I'm hearing in the news that Sadiq Khan's mask has slipped more than just a little. He seems to posses a degree of contempt for members of the moderate, hard working and socially integrated Muslim community. These are the sort of people we...

    Leaving the EU

    Oh no! Look who is likely to become mayor of London tomorrow. Good luck with that as the multicultural experiment explodeds in everyone's face. Yet more evidence that London is lost as a tollerant western city when this snake takes office.

    Anyone built or successfully using a ducted fan powered electric bike ?

    Around the time of the 747's launch, RR were also developing the RB211 which was their first high by-pass ratio engine. It was better than the P&W because it had three shafts connecting the turbines to the compressors as opposed to P&W's two. This allows for better matching of compressor speed...

    Anyone built or successfully using a ducted fan powered electric bike ?

    I'm not sticking up fot this method of propulsion, I think it's totally wrong and inefficient on this scale. However, this has nothing to do with nozzle size. Nozzle size alone does not dictate how powerful these engines are or how much thrust they produce. In simple terms the engine or motor...

    My new 31 year old "e-bike" !

    Hi, Just had a quick read through this thread. My initial thoughts are the weight distribution is wrong for a front hub motor to work. The majority of the weight is over the rear wheels, so I think you will struggle for traction if driving the front wheel, especially going up hill on a wet day...
