    Brexit, for once some facts.

    There are some local factors that amplified the vote swing Labour to conservatives in Hartlepool like the choice of the Labour candidate. Rayner got blamed for that. I believe most Corbynites will eventually come to support Starmer when they think their chance of being re-elected is improved...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    unlikely scenario though. BJ is different compared to other tory leaders in that he is quite willing to borrow to spend. However, when the pandemic is over, he won't be able to continue that way. The feelgood factor will disappear when the tab has to stop growing at last year's rate. The...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    your reasoning is illogical. Labour does very well in Wales because they want to hold on to power. Labour can win in England with someone who is not a Marxist, like Blair has demonstrated. There are more anti-tory votes than tory votes in England. If Labour wins in England and Wales, there is no...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    the tories' instinct is to cling on to power, they will unite when necessary whereas half of Labour apparatus are Marxists who know deep down they can't win power with their ideology and would rather control the party than address the needs of those who traditionally vote against the tories.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Labour lost because it is divided. Its MPs are more interested in in-fighting than looking for policies to appeal to a post industrial and poorly educated population.

    Box Bike Conversion advice please!

    the DWG22C that I stock can take 25A on 36V but the optimal speed would be too low. It's optimised for 15mph on 48V.

    Help! Newbie looking for my first hybrid ebike

    I think that depends on how the rider mounts the bike. On a Dutch frame bike, the rear rack battery causes no problem at all because you don't have to swing your leg over the luggage rack. If the battery is mounted on the side of the rack instead, the centre of gravity is shifted onto the side...

    what do you mean? True socialists like Corbyn would like all the benefits paid for by those who are wealthy. Blair split the cost more equally.

    it's not true that most batteries on sale with kits don't use the most energy dense cells. Her kit can be bought with 17.5AH HL battery which costs £100 more than the same with 13AH battery. The 17.5AH HL battery uses the Samsung INR18650-35E cells, same with the best out there in Bosch bikes...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Our food production is tied mostly to the EU. Our industrial products are tied to EU norms. Soon enough, we'll have to negotiate access to EU's financial services. we'll rejoin EU institutions by necessity albeit slowly, the ECJ will regain its influence over time. Just wait and see how the...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    it's still a pretty accurate summary. Personalities aside, brexit is essentially an internal debate to the UK conservatives. When you look into why church-goers voted for brexit and young people who didn't make the effort to go to vote, you can see that the pro-EU conservatives didn't stand a...
