    Brexit, for once some facts.

    it's game set and match for Biden. Even Texas is turning blue. The Donald is a goner.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    it's the opposite. Trump knows that the more there is a public budget deficit, the more voters like his promise to cut taxes. Biden wants to push up taxes for the rich. His attraction is, you fund my campaign, may be I won't put taxes up as much as I promised.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    indeed, the tide has turned for the Donald with only 11 days to go. Jon Sopel went last night into a republican bar in Nashville which is usually full of Trump supporters but now only had a handful of faithfuls watching the debate. They are no longer sure that their man will win. Politico has...

    How quickly does the motor engage after you start pedalling

    that's right. On the Bafang MaxDrive (as in the Woosh Rambla), it's instantaneous, not even a tenth of a turn. On bikes with 12-magnet disc, about 1/4 of a turn.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Trump knows he's been beaten, that's why he behaved like a politician in the debate because he will be one has been politician very soon. I actually like some of the things he said, he's not frightened to call a spade a spade.

    Confused about e bikes

    I would suggest a conversion. You can get a pretty good bike for about £300 that suits then add a kit to it. This is my ride about, Brompton B75 with a long range battery: and with a short range battery:

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I watched the second and last US presidential debate. For once, Trump did OK, was polite, quick and intelligible. Biden was slow and repeated rehearsed lines. However, vfr is not going to like this, early polls say that Biden did better by a substantial margin: YouGov: Biden 54% Trump 35% CNN...

    that's why I said it would be better to give to those who are likely spreaders the vaccine first, that way we reduce the overall risk by suppressing the spreaders.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    true, but that does not mean that any particular vaccine won't work. Sinovac make several Covid vaccines, following different routes, hoping one of them would hit the jackpot. I think the one they are selling to the public at the moment uses the old traditional method of inactivating the virus...

    China has hardly any Covid but have vaccinated their key workers since July. The vaccine in use is yet to be approved. In a way, our capitalism is not as good as one party socialism on this particular threat.

    How to add a throttle to a Carrera Vengeance E Spec

    I followed this project for a while but it's a long time ago, I think the OP has abandoned it. If you can write your own code and rig up your own arduino kit, then you can identify easily the 4 wires that come out of the ATS sensor board: black: ground, red: 5V, yellow and blue: pedal sensor and...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I am pretty sure that the fewer symptoms the person has from Covid, the more likely that person is a spreader or super-spreader because he/she is unaware of the virus presence. Therefore students are high on my list, anyone working in a public facing role in closed spaces, those working on...

    that's OK if we know for certain that the vaccine is highly effective. If, like the flu vaccine I get every year (tomorrow lunch time as matter of fact), the vaccine is about 75% effective or even less, then the doses are better used on would be spreaders and super-spreaders. Another reason for...

    we need to vaccinate as many as possible, the priority should be those who run no risk (school children, students etc) and progress the campaign further to the older generations. Not the other way round.

    you should also look at the polls in early voting. Biden clearly leads in all the swing states, even if the polls make 3%-4% errors, only 2 large states are on knife edge: Florida and Texas. In Florida, Biden has a small lead but big enough to be pretty sure he'll win it, in Texas, Trump may win...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    the problem is the majority of voters need politicians to simplify issues into plain English or fewer words for them. Even if you don't need politicians to summarise for you, short sharp 3 word slogans (education education education, save the NHS, take back control, get brexit done) still sound...
