    Brexit, for once some facts.

    the companies can issue new shares to their workers. The effect is still the same, dilution of shareholders value. Labour could have gone the traditional way, charge large companies a special levy (like one off windfall tax of 10%). You can see where it's going. France tried something similar...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I don't know how true this is. I am surpised though. Jacob Rees-Mogg: " you can't have another vote on Brexit because it would overturn the first one".

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Judging by Corbyn's performance in face to face debates at the HoC, tories + BXP can still easily beat him at the next GE and rule for 5 more years. JC's old tactic of promising more public spending on tuition fees may not work again. Kier Starmer was on TV last night. When he was asked...

    Battery ageing question.

    long time ago, batteries used to lose their charge so quickly that you had to top up charge them every few months. How old is your battery? Next time you want to store it for a month or more, write down the voltage before and after storage, see how much it has gone down. Batteries work between...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    of course it won't be as bad as some people make out about shortage of this or that.

The losers are our manufacturers and exporters.

    Italy is hit by strong competition in manufacturing from Japan, South Korea, India, Mexico, Poland etc With an ageing population, it spends more than it earns.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    that's the nub of the problem. Both sides claim that democracy is on their side, with some success. Honouring the vote is not the same as respecting our democratic system. Of course Leave would like to equate democracy to respect of the vote, while remain claims that the rules were not...

    Battery ageing question.

    I keep telling my customers to ride their bikes as often as possible It's a case of usse it or lose it. If you can't use your bike as often as you wish, do not store the battery in a full or nearly flat state. Batteries are actually mechanical devices and will break down over time. I still...
