    Brexit, for once some facts.

    This nonsense again. London has no greater incidence of stabbing than anywhere else in proportion to population. As I've pointed out before with links, there are worse areas, the West Midlands in particular where the problem is far greater. Like virtually all my over 10 million fellow...

    Powered Pedicabs/Rickshaws seized by the Met.

    It's exactly as Nealh says, just an intermittent exercise. In fact many of them are using illegal higher powered motors since our usual 250 watt rated motors aren't up to shifting circa 140 kilos of trike plus three people on board, rider and two passengers. The total weight can approach a...

    Many racist people, at most the half who voted for Trump. .

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Demonstrably nonsense. As I've just shown in this post, London has had by far the largest and fastest change, but once again has overwhelming voted Labour. .

    Proving once more how right Remainers are and how uncertain of their position Leavers are. Well done YouGov. .

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    That drop was miniscule. Yes they didn't like it, but that was mainly due to naked racism and still is, plus their conservatism and resistance to any change. Our change in London was far more drastic over the same period of time. From being overwhelmingly the majority, we white British born...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Two snags with this. First is how the USA has become the most successful country in the world by continuous unfettered immigration. Second is how London is so successful and socially well integrated compared to the regions, due to doing the same. Both have no majority of any one original...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    You really are incredibly ignorant and stupid. I did not post that Goodwin was wrong, in fact I assumed he was right, which is why I didn't want to listen to what I already knew. Remember I said I also knew why Labour lost, enough people have chanted from that same prayer book after all. So...

    Risk of getting your bike stolen in London?

    I didn't say it was London cyclists who were buying the stolen bikes. Maybe more likely those in the poorer regions are buying them. ;) .

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Of course not. How many times must I post that don't want your sort of Blairite labour? It follows that I'm not interested in others accounts of why a true Labour socialist party lost. I know as well as them or better why. You'd understand me better if you noted what I post, remember...

    Can you explain what this numbering indicates? .

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Again that's something in your mind. I haven't said that, I've said I don't mind if Labour doesn't get into power at present. They will in the end, just as in the past. We are predominantly a small "c" conservative country, so any radical party only ever gets into power when the people...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    This one doesn't. Half their MPs are still Blairites, much to Corbyn's disapproval. .

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    True, they needed Corbyn and McDonnell to do that But if the anti Corbyns had all voted for the LibDems instead of switching to Tory, the LibDems would now be in power or balance of power with hundreds of left leaning liberal MPs to choose from. I doubt Swinson would have survived for long...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    It had a choice, the Centrist left leaning party you say they want, the LibDems. They just didn't know it. .

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I don't need to look up Bevan. I'm well aware of how he despised Tories. I was around at the time, old enough to know what was happening and old enough to have suffered under what went before him. And I've never mentioned Bevan being PM and never would since he'd have been totally unsuitable...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    That really does show your total ignorance on this subject Zlatan, perhaps not surprising from someone who wasn't even alive at the time. Willam Beveridge gave the principles of what was desirable, but Aneurin Bevan expanded on those and was the architect of the reforms, and also the...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    You know what OG, I think that's probably unfair and wrong. I'd say it's the UK public who have been the universal failures in creating this mess, by the ways they vote and who they vote for. .

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    But neither he nor you are speaking sense. Why do you want Labour to change into what already exists? Just vote for what you say you want, the centre-left LibDem party. Labour can't be changed anyway, as I showed with the gang of four and their followers who failed. And as Blair showed with...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    No Zlatan, you are wrong. The LibDems and their former Liberal incarnations have always represented centre and left of centre views. In Blair's time they were certainly more left than he ever was. Don't forget that their modern Liberal incarnation was born out of Labour, when the "gang of...
