    The HoC has learned something from the behaviour across the Atlantic. If you are dealing with dirty tactics and opponents who continue to lie, taking the "moral high ground" is counterproductive. The SC equally has learned,and unless one maintains ones power, it gets stolen.

    Be aware that I reserve the right to agree with you when you say something worthwhile. But you have long exceeded my quota of fools pardons, and offensive remarks made about third parties goes beyond acceptable behaviour. Again your purient vocabulary betrays a gutter mentality.

    Fingers. You are being incoherent.and trollish. Stirring up nonsense,without any consistency of purpose.. except to rile people. Just give over. I suspect you actually know that scotch is a drink,so unless you are filled with the stuff, you are not scotch.

    I had expected a more nuanced response, but am delighted to see the clarity of the judgement. It would be difficult to see how the cabinet surviving this.

    Fantastic battery?!

    I suspect that the Bosch system is a little more sophisticated than a simple voltmeter. They are monitoring the current, so measuring the charge consumption with a microcontroller is easy. I know that your comments refer to a different brand, ..but ,just putting in a word for the higher priced...

    There is some truth there, and England plays above its weight class in soft industries like film and tv content .. because of the ubiquitous nature of the English language.. but look at Netflix and you will see major competition from India, Indonesia and China. But not so in internet...

    I suspect much sooner than 5 years. Sterling is sitting where it is in the hope of a Deal. The number of economies in the 5 to 10 range are closely clumped, were sterling to drop by say another 10%, and drop below the dollar and euro,then the UK economy would be out of the top ten.
