I guess in Starmer's case, the need to show decency and integrity stops him making big promises, the usual stuff easy to say but not deliver. It's a bit like bikes' weight really.

There is only so much that the party gate can boost support for Labour. Last week's polls showed consolidation of Labour's recent gain. Their lead was reduced to 5% but after PMQ, grew again to 8%. I am pretty sure that the Gray's report will add one or two percents to their lead. The key point...

No. Businesses, big and small, will always adapt. I lost sales to EU customers but gained in competitors like Aliexpress, PWSpower etc having to charge VAT and import duty that they previously were able to evade. My immediate problem is my age. I need to find someone to takeover my job. It's a...

so there is no hope that your vote would swing from the conservatives in the foreseeable future?

is there really nothing you like in socialism?

I like Peter Kyle. Starmer is the antidote of Johnson. Decency, respect for political correctness and democracy (as in respect for the same rules for him and ordinary people).

I already knew you would not want to vote for the current Labour party, nevermind who leads it. My question was what kind of real socialism you would vote for. In an ideal world that is.

you need to fit the pedal sensor. it comes with the kit, you only need to specify which one you want. If you order online, the choices are from the dropdown box. If you order by email, Andy will get in touch and sort out the best one for you. Each magnet ring has 12 magnets on it. When you...

if you can, send some pictures of the bottom bracket area to kits@wooshbikes.co.uk - Andy will suggest the most suitable pedal sensor to use. The choice depends on the chainset you have. If it has external ballbearings, then the cranks themselves are also easy to remove. In that case, a...

to be fair to them, they have all been given a nigh impossible task which is 'Make UK Great Again'. The problem is they only have one trump card: the status of reserve currency of the Pound. That lets them print more money than possible for many other countries because comparatively, the...

and for good reason, it's for the GLA and the police. If he is found guilty of misconduct, You still have not said what kind of real socialism you would vote for.

do explain, what is real socialism? Starmer is centre left, like Blair. You are rightly worried because he is gaining credibility weeks after weeks, months after months. Think about it, BJ will have 1-2 more months with the police enquiry and Sue Gray's full report, then there is the Jennifer...

we'll see who is right. You are the one who still see Labour as divided, McCluskey still as powerful as under Corbyn's management, Abbott as the future chancellor or Foreign Secretary etc.. so who is asleep? Starmer has more or less purged Labour NEC of Corbynistas. Look at Labour's front...

Wakey wakey, look at who is leading Labour into the next election, and it's not Corbyn, he doesn't even have a whip!

I don't think the conservatives are going to win the next election. Brexit has already delivered, and it's not much to show beside the long queues of lorries around Dover. My company like many others stopped selling into the EU. Any rapprochement to the EU to improve trade is unlikely to be made...

Johnson was asked: if one of the cases currently investigated by the police was considered severe enough to be heard in Court, would he be willing to testify under oath? MPs burst into laughter.

it does not change much, our international reputation is already shot by Johnson single handedly. Everyone knows he is not a serious politician, the only one in the world branded a liar even by MPs in his party.

that would be applicable to the 4 that are below the police interest's threshold. The other 12 are being investigated by the police and Johnson still insists that there is nothing to see here. I am watching him giving his statement to the HoC, Con. MP Andrew Mitchell asked him to resign. I am...

I must say that getting the police to ask Sue Gray to minimise her report has done it for BJ.

It's difficult to imagine someone less qualified for the top job than BJ - if you believe stories about him leaving his red box opened and top secret reports strewn everywhere in his flat while family friends know the digicode and come and go to their flat. on the whole, the farce at No 10 has...
