Hi Mike, let me say that as a practicing scientist and engineer, I agree fully with your assessment of Global Warming being a belief and a quasi religion,where one must be either a true believer or be shunned into the exterior darkness. Such fanatical behaviour is unworthy of rational beings...

..well for once Fingers has a point. The flu or a cold would not have responded to the antibiotic, whereas any coincident bacterial infection, symbiotic with the weakened state brought on by the virus will . Your medical doctor was treating the probability of that occuring rather than the...

There is probably more residual affection for the British than for the other colonial powers,but seriously that is a very low bar . The behaviour of the Belgians in the Congo, and the Germans in Africa , the Spanish in South America, and indeed the Dutch in South Africa does not show Christian...

It is really adverse winds which play havoc with a battery range. The big thing about climbs is that they usually have decents. If the gear is low enough,the motus will go up a wall.,even the Activeline

Many people speak English ,of one form or another. They have their native language and they have English. So the English language is very popular. Rather than pick up what is another foreign language. Like Greek ot French or German. Or Dutch. I recall being on a campsite in France some two...

Why the UK voted out. Are you really naturally that dense,or do you work at it?.

Of course it does but except for us in Ireland ,the effect is diluted in a ratio 450:60

Or more precisely 640,000 of the 34,000,000 who voted expressed a preference for being more out than in. The reason my answer does not change, is that the question has not changed, and facts are very stubborn. Now you may have believed that there would be a financial hit, but that was not what...

Decimate is ok.... 10% can be lived with. The UK has already doubled that in sterling devaluation . I predicted perhaps two years ago, that the British would still be buying Audi, but instead of the A6 ,their budget would stretch to an A4. or the standard paint finish not the glossy metallic

And the UK was not putting a political agenda before economic prosperity? That is even plainer to see. Had the EU capitulated and required each individual country make its own deal with the UK, which is what certain people in Whitehall believed would happen ,then perhaps, perhaps, your...

Hero worship is very touching, but the majority of us outgrow it in our 20s

Everything is an opinion, some more informed than others. No-one knows what will happen tomorrow, but it is my informed opinion opinion ,based on past experience that the sun will appear to rise in the East and travel across the sky. Someday, should i live long enough, that opinion will prove...

Yes . I listen to what people say. It is very interesting concept, those who say the least sometimes have more to say. I then note what they have said in the past, and were their actions consistent with that. That is why i try not to comment on British Politicians

She will get all the "clarifications " she wants from the EU, no problem there, those eu diplomates are very smooth. What she will not get is any substantial concession. The truth is that the Deal is the Deal and is the only game in town.

Correct.. it is an entirely generated on your side of the pond. We on ours have to react and we did.

Actually Leo and Michail, leader of thr opposition are planning. They are agreeing the timetable for the next three months for any legalisation which can be deferred so that emergency Brexit related matters can be dealt with. It is called cooperation,and it is how adults deal with problems.

No. Which part of EU does not care about this posturing is difficult to understand. 90% of the organisation has made a proposal to 10%. The 10% can accept or reject it, . It will marginally damage the 90% if it is rejected. It will seriously damage the 10%. The world and the EU will move on...

Tommie, just like the words Nxxxxxr in the USA or anti-Semitic anywhere, there are certain key words which just are intended to cut off rational debate.. project fear is one of these. Can you not present an argument or must you hide behind a devalued slogan

Occasionally, just occasionally I find myself in agreement , if only partially with you.

You have got nothing!!!. More ferries means more time the goods are in transit. Bring more lorries along the miserable roads in in south Wales, or in Devon or maybe near the Wash for transport to Zeebrugge,means more delays more congestion. The problem is not the ports, or the transit, there...
