    Brexit, for once some facts.

    The Con voters and the Brexit columns are caveats, I wonder how much people pay attention to these details. Samples are usually weighted to the last election result (2017) but may not in this case.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I think that poll in the DM gave the conservatives 31%, Labour 24%, Libdems 21%, BXP 14%. 31% is not brilliant.

    they may want brexit but not many voters trust Bojo. Apparently, he threatens all dissenting conservative backbenchers with deselection if they vote against him next week.

    did you noticed the bit 'that parliament will approve'? Of course few people think that Bojo will get parliament support for anything he does.

    most voters don't trust Bojo and not just remain voters.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Bojo will make it up as he stumbles along. Nobody can seriously offer him anything. They just have to wait until he hits some walls from Farage, the ERG, his backbenchers or some ex wifes.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    we don't know what will happen but there will be twists and turns for sure. I imagine that if MPs fail to stop no deal brexit next week then a number of tory MPs voting to stop no deal would vote to stop Bojo when they get back in October. That number can reach 20. The likelihood that JC or Ken...

    for me, this thread is a technical discussion, not a fight. Swytch and Panda are trade members of the forum, no comparison is intended.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    https://twitter.com/iain_w_anderson MPs will vote on no deal first. If that fails, confidence vote will be last resort when they get back to work in October. Some conservative MPs who voted against no deal the last time may want to vote against their government as a last resort. JC has added...

    I don't get you. Lots of people have integrated all the electronics either inside the downtube battery mounting base or a controller box fitted in front of their rack battery. In case of a folding bike, all the electronics can be integrated in the chainring like this...

    the benefit of the swytch is to have the LCD integrated into the battery bag. If you move the bag lower, you lose the accessibility to the LCD. If you attach the LCD via an LCD extension cable, then of course you can place the bag lower but then you also lose its USP.

    the gyration effect is much more noticeable on smaller wheels. For something like the 16" Brompton, I would have thought the best way is to put the motor to the rear, and do away with the hub gear. If gears are absolutely wanted, then fit a double chain ring. The battery and controller can go...

    I doubt that he can accept any offer of a deal from the EU. Think of the ERG = think of Trump. The ERG simply won't let Bojo do any deal that delays an immediate deal with the USA, that means no deal with the EU until then.

    the value of the Pound begins its slide since this morning. That's one way the market judges the conservatives for their economic competence. https://www.xe.com/currencycharts/?from=GBP&to=usd

    time is running out for the conservatives. His majority is 1 which he will probably lose at the next by-election or if he upsets his political girlfriend, Arlene Foster.

    their plan is to knock the house down and ask an American architect like Steve Bannon to draw plans for a new one. We'll be a state of the USA.

    Hi Ian, take a look at the Woosh Big Bear, it could be perfect for you. Long wheel base, nearly upright riding position, comfortable front suspension, excellent hydraulic brakes, motor good enough for 25st riders. http://wooshbikes.co.uk/?bigbearplus
