It's called the selfish society. .

And then go and live in Sweden where the level of taxation is extremely high but the people have a good life in a very equal society and are considered some of the happiest in the world. There's absolutely no doubt which system works the best when properly done. .

Indeed we could well drift in the American direction politically with a Democrat alternative. That could be born out of the LibDems, who have had many past guises and names, combined with moderate Labour. Much though depends on the economic future. If we are affluent that could happen, but if...

Indeed, which is why I posted that the Torys have a turning point coming up as those newly gained older Leave voters start dying off. The anti-Brexit young won't readily be changing their minds as they age, especially when the downsides of Brexit become ever more apparent. .

This is the Danish government who until very recently fully protected the rights of paedophiles to have child pornography easily available, while ignoring the rights of the children often being appallingly sexually abused in the material. Nothing this racist coward has to say is worthwhile...

I agree their failure will begin to show before ten years, but perhaps not enough. The country won't be ready to reverse Brexit then and Labour may still not be able to take over. I see a future Tory vunerability as the turning point. They've taken in a large number of Northern ex Labour...

Indeed, all over the country in fact, attached to railway stations Scammell Mechanical Horse, very conventionally powered though, Ford Ten side valve car engine, only 30bhp and very low geared for town speeds. Given the climate situation, we could see their like return using electric power to...

Labour will be back, but not this lot. Their return is likely to be between 10 and 20 years time. .

I still remember the Commer TS3, especially the noise! Link .

The notion that Cummings is clever seems somewhat flawed. There can be no such thing as a clean break from the EU at the same time as reaching any sort of a trade deal. The two are incompatible so the government's vision is clearly flawed. And then of course there's the little matter of the...

He will have to if he wants what he calls a trade deal. There is of course no such thing in the singular, trade deals come in multiples, even that of the EU with little Switzerland consisted of 120 trade deals reached over seven years of negotiations. Each one required acceptance of the EU...

Bit surprised you posted this here, where according to you it can only be seen by ten people. ;) .

That was my first thought when the 50Hz name first appeared, since he'd bought his e-bike from them, a Panasonic powered Kalkhoff Pro Connect. However the disillusionment with 50cycles leads me to think he wouldn't have personally wanted that association. .

I very much doubt it. Oddly enough it was Jeremy Corbyn who got the closest of any UK politician when the huge Glastonbury crowd cheered him and were singing their "Oh Jeremy Corbyn" chant. I doubt all of them were high on drugs. .

Actually it was Tillson. I think the change to 50Hz may have been a pun, i.e. he's perhaps reached 50 years and it hurts. .

GB and the EU are fully aligned with the type approval regulation 168/2013 and identical usage regulations. In GB's case that's the 2015 amendment to our non-conforming 1983 EAPC regulation, the amendment to bring parity. There's also a regulation in the GB's 1988 Road Traffic Act which...

Fortunately where EAPCs are concerned, the UK and the EU are fully aligned and have been since 6th April 2015. .

I believe your 1995 Road Traffic Act was the adoption of our 1988 RTA. The additional regulation for EAPCs in that is the imposition of a minimum 14 years age to ride one. That means what you have missing is the 1983 EAPC regulation, as amended 6th April 2015. Adopting those alone will...

As I posted earlier, the UK will almost certainly have to if it wishes to trade with the EU. It is a roads transport condition the EU tends to insist on and why the likes of Norway and Switzerland outside of the EU comply. Of course road freight standards integration is a primary reason, but...

If you were correct the class is defined. The pedelec exemption is within the EU type approval order 2003/24/EC and its successor 168/2013 and the definition of a pedelec is spelled out in those documents exemption (h). Here it is: "(h) pedal cycles with pedal assistance which are equipped...
