    Brexit, for once some facts.

    A discriminatory attitude towards Jews is not racist, since as they maintain themselves, the Jews are not a race. They are a disparate religious group consisting of many races. Their main groupings are as Sephardic, Hassidic, Ashkenazi, Ethiopian and Mizrahi Jews, and their racial links extend...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Absolutely not, showing pride in one's nationality of necessity infers racial superiority, a preference over other races. It follows that racism is inherently an essential element of being a good and loyal subject or citizen. I'm not racist though, since I'm ashamed of this country and...

    Just like you got you got your knickers in a twist over one of Jean Claude Junker's expensive flights, documented earlier in this thread. Double standards Zlatan. It shows once again that you have such an irrational phobic hatred of Corbyn and Labour that you lose all sense of proportion...

    We don't need an alternative now that the Tories and their PM are following so many Labour policies to please their new northern voters. And Blair thought his party was New Labour! :rolleyes: .

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Wrong! Centuries ago it was the north such as Lancashire and Yorkshire that were the most successful, I take it you've heard of wool and cotton? Geographic location has little to do with it. Success follows success, wherever it is, just as money makes money. London now has the formula for...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Rubbish, there is no London culture. We are a mix of all 300 or so major countries and cultures, even using all their languages. The combination of all this knowledge, wisdom and experience results in the best outcomes in the country, one that all others should emulate to succeed, as we in...

    I don't lay down the law to anyone, you can all do as you please with my blessing. What I do is provide a service ensuring all pedelecers do know what the law is, and not what their fertile imaginations make it. Remember, my advice is also in pedelecers favour, such as showing them that...

    In that case we might as well stick with steam, we built those well. :) Slam doors and leather strap adjusted windows are environmentally good too, and all very popular.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    But will Barnett survive? There's long been deep unhappiness with it south of the border, and given the scale of the political changes taking place currently, plus the conflict between Westminster and the SNP, I wouldn't bank on Barnett's longevity. Westminster could take the view that if...

    Police ebike checks.

    Lack of proper labelling, virtually no pedelecs are correctly marked in every respect. Here's what the law says, the first way is for current machines built to EU standards, the second for 2015 and before machines. (Forget about kit builds, a police officer isn't qualified to determine if an...

    Police ebike checks.

    Me too, and on the roads. One of a hard looking group of teenagers hanging around a supermarket, having seen my e-bike in the rack asked to ride it with the air that he expected me to say no. I said "yes of course", at which one of the others said to him, "You jammy git!" :D I showed him...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    It will never be built, there's no possible economic case in the foreseeable future. This government announcement is probably to deter thoughts of Scottish independence with something tempting for the future if remaining in union. Scotland couldn't contemplate the cost of building it themselves. .

    The increase and the spread in the last 24 hours is rattling them. I don't see anything odd, governments usually try to prevent panic at first by downplaying, until that's no longer wise. .
