..Are you out of your mind?. The EU quaking in its boots?. Changing the front bench is as significant as the Bath Rugby team changing its back row before taking on NZ in a friendly. The EU commission is scheduled to next meet on 12 October.

Come on Fingers.. The EU are not happy that the UK are leaving. They crafted an agreement agreeable to the UK Cabinet.. Unfortunately it was not acceptable to any two of the three groups in Parliament, who were stuck in their Goldilocks phase.. too hot, too cold just right... Everything...

The fuller quotation is... Great spirits have always encountered violent opposition from mediocre minds. The mediocre mind is incapable of understanding the man who refuses to bow blindly to conventional prejudices and chooses instead to express his opinions courageously and honestly. He would...

Whats happening?. Yes I agree with you on both counts, a slight bounce then a gradual drop towards 95 pence to the euro. If BJ does the impossible and gets Mays deal passed ,the euro will drop rapidly to 85 pence and then slower down towards 82 . If he doesn't , then the 95 goes towards 97

..That is a fair point, but when a person buys a lotto ticket, assisting a care home in Dumfries is unlikely their motivation

I hope you are not including me in that body of people who are getting upset ..My point was clarification to Fingers apparently missing the point of a prior post.

I think you may have missed the point which was being made. It is not that like minded people would join a party and work on constituency offices , .. that's a given , but that people were canvassed and assumed that payment of an enrollment fee would ensure potential selection . Now the Brexit...

Yes Oyster, that is exactly the conundrum,which the UK has generated. The majority of NI trade is within its locality,and that means the hinterlands of Louth,Cavan, Monaghan Donegal, as well as into neighbouring NI counties Armagh,Antrim Derry. Then the finished goods,have the majority exported...

But Ireland is already separate from the other 26,...the sea is very effective. But Ireland is not very separate from either NI, or Scotland or Wales.. We can see Scotlands Islands from the RoI..Off the Donegal coast., And you would need to be blind not to see mainland Scotland from NI ...

Now Fingers with your expert understanding of the law in the UK. 1. Will this gentleman be arrested as an accomplice to an illegal activity.. the dissemination of secret materials., Knowing them to be sensitive and secret?. 2. Will he be brought to court and charged and asked to name the...

Oh there will be a brexit Scotty, but not as we know it..to paraphrase Startrek. If BJ is the super-duper salesman he believes himself to be,he might take the WA,as agreed by Mrs May, dicky about with Backstop, make it apply to NI only and then move on as the saviour ..so it could be a...

Except the backstop is not going.. What has been offered any number of times, except never understood in the UK,is that the EU and Ireland would happily accept is it being confined to NI.

That latter is the only plausible scenario

Is that the real project fear

Sounds like win, win win ...

Sounds like a win win to me!..and saving the cost of refueling

I have the Motus, and it is an excellent bike . Capable of mild off road .. say gravel paths, clay paths grass ,but not MTB territory. . The only maintenance needed has been a decision to replace a tyre with a marathon. , Minor rotation of hydraulic brake adjustment, abd a little bit of chain...

I was referring to Mr Barclays attempt at an explanation of Boris Johnson deliberate untruths regarding plastic covered Kippers. This was to a radio audience, of cynical journalists ..and it was evident that they were gobsmacked at the type of explanation ..as was I. They choose not to go...

That was very worrying. When a senior politician .. which I assume mr Barclay is, saying that what politicians say is not important,but what they do matters. Actually it is the other way around. There are other people to do tge things that the politician says

This is a hardy annual question and if you go back over numbers of postings it will reappear. The definitions of power are not the electrical power going into the motor..the product of voltage by current consumed, but the mechanical power delivered to the wheel which is torque x revs per...
