if the gap remains 10%+ until the election, they'll get their majority. https://www.express.co.uk/news/politics/1551900/conservative-labour-latest-polls-boris-johnson-keir-starmer-evg from the Express: Just six per cent of those surveyed said they thought Mr Johnson had been honest in...

the front brakes on the Santana is disc. You can replace the cable operated Avid caliper with a hydraulic one. The cost is about £20-£30. As most of the braking (70%) is done at the front, it will give about the same braking power as if both front and rear were hydraulic.

You should email support@wooshbikes.co.uk - Andy will help you diagnose the problem and sort it out.

I reckon BJ will say that he has not known until Sue Gray's report is out that the gatherings at No 10 were in fact social gatherings. With what he now knows, he humbly submits his correction to any previous statements that other honorable friends may have found untrue or misleading. It's all...

tories voting intentions sink further, the gap now widens to 13% Tories: 30% Labour: 43% Labour should have more seats than conservatives in the next parliament. Steve Baker of the ERG and Covid Research Group may lose his seat (Wycombe) - I reckon he will want BJ out before it's too late for...

that reminds me... I made a 128k RAM board for the ZX81 and wrote the code for a RAM drive for the Zilog Z80 chip in 1982. There should still be some pictures of it somewhere on the internet. I did the same for the BBC Micro model B in 1983 but this time for the 6502 chip. You load software from...

it's one of the very few world beating areas that we have. Now Dorries has vandalised it, starting by cutting its budget in the remaining of this parliament. She will force it to be commercial and get it ready for sale.

as reckon VPN etc won't make much difference. Your browser(s) and plug-ins store enough thumbnails in the temp folder to act as breadcrumbs to what you have viewed not counting the system registry and hundreds of log files.

I have been watching the debate Nadine Dorries vs Lucy Powell. Both were quite good performers but I like Lucy Powell better. Dorries does a pretty good job at hinting at the future of the BBC being broken up, a small core of public broadcasting will be publicly funded, the consequence of this...

you get a pretty good protection from credit card companies within the UK. It's only for foreign transactions that Paypal is particularly convenient. Since we left the SM and CU on 1/1/2021, I stopped exporting altogether so it has not bothered me much.

I pay for ebay stuff with Paypal too, but as a seller, I stick to a high standard of customer service as matter of course any way.

looks like operation 'red meat' is in full swing. They are all out attacking Starmer. Pop corn time.

I too, stopped accepting paypal for two years now. It's all down to their change of T&Cs. Before, when an order is cancelled, I refund the customer and Paypal refunds me their fees minus 50p. So the cost of cancellation to me is 50p. Now, they don't refund their fees if I issue a refund. On a...

fit the brake levers in that case.

you have torque sensor in your Scott Eride 920 which gives instant power when you push off from standstill. If you are not a good pedaller and where you live is very hilly, get the TSDZ2 with throttle, you get to keep the good characteristic of the ride but when you are tired, the throttle turns...

Which version did you buy? with or without throttle? brake sensors are only available with the throttle version of the TSDZ2. If you install the throttle then you should install the sensored brake levers, just in case the throttle gets jammed during operation.

High taxes don't help attracting top companies to move here and to be the best, we need to attract the best. On manufacturing, we have to choose our own specialism, may that be AI or pharma or jet engines or micro satellites. We can't be world beating at everything.

I fear the reason that things are the way they are because of consumerism. We want so many different products that no single country can satisfy the demand of its own citizens, not even the USA or China, two biggest world producers.

Taxation has to be progressive but also competitive and commensurate with the needs of the country. We live in a capitalistic world where people and capital (especially intellectual property) can move fluidly, high taxation is counter-productive,
