    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I get a similar situation at a local BP petrol station that I still use for the car wash. Each day a number of police cars and vans gather there at the same time to refuel, meet up and snack in the M & S food shop it has. There's car parking space there and they seem to make it into quite a...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    The withdrawal agreement was leaving with a deal, exactly as the Leave campaigners promised before the referendum. You might not like the terms of the deal, but that doesn't make it not leaving. Your problem it seems, shared with too many Leavers, is wanting to walk away with no...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    No, not my imagination, just a simple statement of the facts to have a deal. Remember the Leave campaigners promising a good deal and arguing it would be easy to get one? As we Remainers said at the time, that was an impossible fantasy and we've been proved right. It's your imagination...

    We are not being punished by the EU, that is a Leaver fantasy. .

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Any deal will be the same, as the EU said, we cannot cherry pick. If we are to trade, that will have to be accompanied by acceptance of a raft of EU standards and rules, just as the 50 countries who have trade deals with the EU have accepted those. And of course leaving will always mean a loss...

    What happened to Pedelecs?!

    It seems the original special subject forums still exist separately and I found them via the Search facility. Some are still shown above on the forums title bar, but I've added the missing Speed Pedelecs and Technical Forum links below if you'd like to bookmark them...

    What happened to Pedelecs?!

    Yes, we seem to have lost the separate forums such as Overseas, S class and High Speed Bikes and Technical etc. I hadn't even noticed they'd gone since I enter via New Posts. The change maybe not so bad though, since all the many forums we used to have confused people so many posts were put...

    Woman hit by Cyclist awarded a payout

    Fortunately pedestrians don't have things entirely their own way. Something that apparently over 80% of people don't know from surveys is that drivers/riders do not have to stop for people waiting at a zebra crossing. Stopping is by courtesy only. They only have to stop if someone puts a...

    Woman hit by Cyclist awarded a payout

    I think that may be personal law rather than any form of traffic law liability. However it seems the amount of possible damages has been grossly exaggerated by the media, judging from the judges remarks about the minimal nature of her injury. We'll have to see what happens when the damages...

    Woman hit by Cyclist awarded a payout

    Afraid not, a counter claim probably wouldn't get off the ground. Once a pedestrian steps onto a road they automatically have the right of way. That is the way the law is generally interpreted, so I wasn't surprised by the judge's ruling. For example, rule 170 of the Highway Code advises that...

    But they aren't the ones the PR need to convince. It's the growing tide of anti-Boris people they need to contain and prevent expanding. To do that they need to up their game. .
