Yes that system does stink. Multi seat constituencies,with PR would ensure that your Parliament reflects the will of the people. It would also create more compromise and coalitions. The best situation , although it might be difficult to do , is to have a single 640 seat constituency and everyone...

The problem is not in the Western world, where our ability to reproduce has been hampered by tight underware, late night movies and excessive beer. The problem is in the East, where they have discovered that cleaner food , elementary hygiene,and vaccination gives their young a fighting chance...

I felt it my duty to report on this late breaking news story straight from the Waterford Whisperer. "CONSERVATIVE MP Jacob Rees-Mogg will today put his incendiary claim that he would have had ‘more common sense’ than the people who perished in the Grenfell blaze to the test, by being placed in...

My 40 year old son is still one of my children. Agreeing in a lot of respects with flecc, we have created a complete mess in regard to the law ..both.Juristications ..and probably even more jurisdictions now , regarding rights, responsibilities, privileges for young persons. The most blatant...

Fingers..be careful, you with an Irish wife, flecc has stumbled onto 50Hs obsession.. Celtic women!.

Interesting to hear that another Urban Mover is still alive. I got one of the foldable versions in 2007 , and it is on its second set of batteries.. I had to do a custom job with lithium ion batteries after the original NimH died .. its not used much now, but I have brought it to a holiday...

Was thinking outside the boxer?.

In unlikely news, the SF and SDLP parties have decided not to contest some seats. This is in order to facilitate some remainders retaining or getting seats. A sign of the times is that Sylvia Harmon, a decent Unionist ,but clear Remainder has been endorsed by SF . What is surprising is that she...

If discussing mental disorders, perhaps you might look in a mirror. Unsurprisingly, Everyone in NI , Scotland ,and even Ireland( historically ) know why. The embrace of Westminster is not always altruistic. Some deluded Scots believe that the UK can be redeemed

That actually would not be true. . We have a housing crisis , due to an inadequate house building post 2007. Prior to the crash we were overbuilding by a factor of 2. However substantial numbers of unfinished buildings, including entire estates had to be demolished. The housing shortage is...

Just an update, the house,which is now a shell was unoccupied for 4 years, and the police in attendance are waiting for forensics

Although I am male, at least I was last time I checked, but I decided to get the unisex or womans model in 2016. And yes it has the rare carrier mounted battery.

Yep! You might wonder. A house has just burned Down. Visible from my study. I am hoping it was derilict ,but it might have been one of the new ones under construction. The rafters were very visible in the flames.

"Lunar calendars are irrelevant, just like you and your knowledge." ...that is the offending piece to Muslims. Years ago I came across as saying .. "when the finger points to the Moon, the fool looks to the finger. "... Suits you.

Yes. It has been a recurring problem on my Motus. It occurred from my very first ride My solution has been to use a bungy cord . I have examined the lock etc and cannot see why it does not properly mate. The lock mechanism is fine. While you are at it check your carrier screws and stays. .. on...

The more northerly one goes the shorter the growing season and the more acutely the farmers look towards the growing season. Before accurate mechanical clocks were devised ,the Lunar calendar and linked with the Winter and summer solstices were the measure. Your second paragraph has in one...

So Scotland , Northern Ireland and Isle of Man are no longer in the UK?. .. interesting. .. I am still open to an apology. GMT is not in question. Ireland adopted GMT in the mid nineteenth century, when the mail services from Holyhead converted to steam. Prior to that we used Irish Time, which...

Can anyone explain why squandering half the time of the latest extension on a GE campaign will advance anything?. As I see it any bills not passed into law by next Tuesday fall. That means the WAB has to be reintroduced. A new Parliament forms a week before Christmas , presumably goes through...

Woosh, that is unlike you. The potential value of an aluminium foil based fuel cell is that it allow us to store a lot of immediately useful electrical energy for months on end and if necessary transport it long distances. Aluminium as a fuel is virtually inexhaustible,it is the process of...

You or more precisely the British Empire built an empire on the BONES of 16 and 17 year olds.
