    Brexit, for once some facts.

    you want efficiency? do it yourself. If you delegate, you have to spend more money to improve the service. Look at the NHS, care for the elderly and schools. One after another, every politician ends up wasting money on reforms.

    Advice on Cheap Option

    1. front motor is lighter. 2. front motor is easier to remove. 3. front motor has 100mm dropout as standard. Rear dropout is usually 135mm but can be 140mm or even 145mm, so you have to re-arrange the anti torque washers if it's not spot on. There may be a case when you take the wheel out and...

    so you believe that old fib about cutting CT? my son planted a 'money tree' (Pachira aquatica) in our garden when he was 5. He tended to his plant beautifully until he was 11. No wonder he chooses a career in banking.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    under BJ's plan, public services go down, inflation and borrowing go up, our children will pay for it and the next government will have to reverse his plan to balance the book. BJ's plan is just as bad as JC's albeit in a different arrangement.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    The average inheritance is £125k - hence the rumoured gift tax - I can't see it justified. The rumours are spread by the right wing newspapers, not confirmed by Labour at all. I can't see that gift tax replacing inheritance tax any time soon. There are some zealots among JC's advisers as much...

    JC's immediate tax plan is to extract more money from the shareholders, especially those overseas. It does not affect much UK taxpayers and pension funds though.

    1. you are correct, the WA was endorsed by 27 leaders but has not been ratified by both parliaments. 2. I don't think there is any obstacle in ratifying the WA after a no deal brexit. It's a simple treaty.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    no, it won't. 1. The treaty has been ratified by the EU. 2. The EU has no incentive to delay, simply because the WA allows the UK to have continued access to most parts of the SM until a deal is done and without cost. 3. Have you also forgotten that the UK is the largest trading partner of the EU?

    Is it possible to turn off the Torque Sensor with mid-drive motors?

    I don't think you can. If you like a crank drive, I have the Santana CD: http://wooshbikes.co.uk/?santana-cd She can pedal as much or as little as she likes. There is also a thumb throttle for backup. The cheaper alternative is to convert a bike to electric.

    BJ has absolutely no reason to cancel A50. All he wants is brexit. The point I try to make is BJ can get the WA through parliament after crashing out, not before. How long we operate under WTO is up to our parliament. If parliament doesn't want WTO then it has to vote with BJ as soon as possible...

    the XF07 does not need torque arm. The BPM kit comes with torque arms.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Crashing out is just a short phase. the deal has already been done, it's our parliament who refuses to ratify the WA. how long does it take after the UK parliament ratifies the WA for the transition period to begin? 24 hours? 48 hours? so what does it take for the ERG to vote with the...

    he'll start negotiating after crashing out. He'll call MPs' bluff, banking on the fact that none of the turkeys will want to vote for Christmas, especially conservative remainers, certain to be deselected after trying to vote against his government. All he'll need from the EU is to set an expiry...

    practical step-through

    sorry if I gave you the wrong information. The Rio LS gives 65NM with the 36V battery, 80NM if you replace the controller and battery with the 48V kit. We do sell the kit with 48V 12AH battery. http://wooshbikes.co.uk/?hubkits#fatkit

    the indie reported this LBC phone-in with JRM. A man named Anthony in Woking rang up to talk to the Tory MP about a YouGov poll that suggested that 28 per cent of the UK are happy to leave the EU without a deal. Anthony: only 17.4 million people voted for Brexit in 2016, which is hardly...
