    Because people take no notice. The mistake we've made as a society is the widespread provision of instant access fast foods and prepared processed ready meals etc. The outcome is a society that lives on those and watches a few specialists cooking on TV for entertainment, rather than as...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    By which time we may have achieved herd immunity! The economy will be easier to manage with a record low number of old age pensions and far less disability support payments to make. The loss of older people will also ease the NHS and care homes workload, leading to further savings. The...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Of course proximity matters, that is precisely my argument about population density being a major factor. And of course the time to have acted was at the start, but that horse bolted long ago. The underground position isn't as different from the buses as you seem to imagine. Like the buses...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    If B & Q are selling it, you can buy it. The government said as much when they rapped Norhampton's Chief Constable over the knuckles, over the issue of looking at what customers were buying, saying of customers, "They can buy whatever they like". B & Q's position is similar to many others...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    You've never heard of having a last fling? :D Seriously though, the social distancing prospects on the ferry are far better than in a Eurostar train, so for those who are travelling for a genuine reason it can be the best option. .

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    That would be one of way of really destroying the economy. Utterly pointless too without stopping all bus travel too. Measures like these are impossible in this 400 square mile city. .

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Yes it is and has been from the outset, as the facts show only too clearly. Contact tracing is completely impossible in the highest density areas, thus negating much of the value of testing. I have no idea of the identity of the hundreds of people I've been in unavoidably close proximity to in...

    New bike need for speed

    Indeed Woosh is saying that, its speed is fixed by design. The only certain way it can have a speed increase is to replace the battery with a higher voltage one, for example replacing a 36 volt with a 48 volt and possibly needing to change the controller as well if the present one can't take...

    length of lockdown?

    Like the BBC with air time, they are finding it harder to fill their daily spot. Hopefully, unlike the Beeb, they won't resort to repeats and highlights from previous evenings. .

    Just think about a mist or fog, hanging stationary in the air for hours. Or the dense clouds some vapers produce! .

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    That's the whole point in this form of speech, the deliberate, uneven length pauses to drive home each word or phrase as the audience is left hanging for the ensuing word. It's designed to give undue weight and importance to what is being said, out of all proportion to its actual value...
