Really? Been there, done the count, got the T shirt? :rolleyes: .

Theresa May was a Remainer too, still got the job. Although a Remainer, Stewart's publically been insistent that the referendum vote must be honoured and we must leave the EU. He has supported May's deal and as PM would probably seek to amend that to give wider acceptance. Given his record of...

Many thousands were singing "Oh Jeremy Corbyn" at Glastonbury, who else in our politics achieves that? They didn't include the older age groups, but they largely vote Tory anyway, so I don't see a big loss of popularity. Most of the voters who don't like JC are Tories who've never liked him. .

Although it superficially looks likely, I'm not so sure Johnson will win. His eratic behaviour and very poor performance since the referendum have lost him lots of support. MPs know he can't get No Deal approved by the HoC. They also know the EU won't give anything further. They also know he...

It is true if we want to improve. Clowns are good for circuses, but not for lasting achievement. And the Ukraine is hardly a pinnacle we should aim for! Rory Stewart has a record of sensible decisions rapidly achieving improvements in virtually all of his many diverse appointments. It's why...

It's not about entertainment and certainly not a beauty contest as a glance at Theresa May confirms. Being PM is about being very capable, having immense wide ranging experience, being liked and respected throughout the world and being well connected with those who count. Rory Stewart ticks...

Indeed, a change of leader doesn't of itself change anything. They need a leader who's a realist with considerable practical experience. Personally I favour Rory Stewart, he has wisdom beyond his years, born of long travelling and working experience in Asia, and his knowledge of international...

I'm afraid Halfords are unlikely to have a mechanic with SRAM hub gear skills, unless they have a mechanic with skills going back a number of years. My trade days started in 1950! If you find the cargo hub core can be used in the standard P5 hub shell, changing it over doesn't need any special...

Surprised at that bike shop's inability, it only takes undoing a single nut to slide out the P5's core and slide a new one into the hub shell. Sadly the new cores are no longer available for your version, though there are still some new ones for the coaster brake (back pedal) version. Best get...

"Tommy Robinson" the Messiah! :D Remember Life of Brian: "He's not the Messiah, he's just a very naughty boy!" Just about sums up "Robinson". .

So why are you proselytising for "Tommy Robinson" repeatedly and at length, if it's so ineffective? .

We only have to remember that she appointed Chris Grayling as Transport Secretary three years ago to know how flawed her own judgement was Indeed, though perhaps understandable when she and May share the same flawed judgement, one also shared by vfr400 as his hero worship of the ignorant...

Hi Xenon, there is no fuse in the Panasonic crank motors but their batteries have fuses. Their original ones that used NiMh batteries had two battery fuses are inside the battery casing as shown here in a photo from my recelling page for the old unit: But your model was sold with a small...

Maybe a play on MPness, acting like an MP. .

I answered on your other post inquiring about this Stephen. Here's the link to that The photo you'll see there is from my site, but under the New Unit details. Sometimes it's an idea to explore that as well since there are some similarities. .

Hi Stephen. The chain from the underside of the chainwheel goes over the 14 tooth motor sprocket and then under the jockey wheel on the swing arm. From there it's fairly level run to the hub gear sprocket. I don't have a photo of the chainpath of that unit model, but below is the later...

I doubt most owners could get 60 to 70 miles from the 500 Wh powertube battery it uses, especially with the steep hills you mention. It depends on how much pedal effort you put in, but could be as little as 40 miles with steep hills. Powerful cyclists could get much more. .

Assuming we can first become technologically advanced enough to lastingly repair potholes. .

Indeed, nightmarishly difficult. But in limited ways it could be part of the armoury to tackle all the problems that are linked to population growth. .

A great showing by Cambridge, even better if one takes into account the US practice of vigorously importing talent from around the world. .
