As they themselves declare, Jews are not a race or ethnic group. So any anti-semitism, if it exists in the party, is not racism. It's discrimination. .

I think that outside of parliament feelings are dying down for the majority of the population. It's very clear now each time they are questioned that they are fed up with the subject and would prefer it to go away. It's only a small minority like us in here who care any more. .

Not relevant. I was quoting actual examples, not hypotheticals. .

Agreed, which is why I posted that in my opinion it wouldn't happen again. .

But that wouldn't work again. The only reason it might happen this time is as a way of getting the House of Commons out of their gridlocked mess. Without that excuse it won't happen again. This time if it happens is final. .

Pedelecs can be quite frail, much more so than other motorised vehicles. My record is a new e-bike costing £1500 almost 13 years ago with a motor that chewed itself to pieces by 200 miles. And a £250 battery from back then which lasted just three months to uselessness. They did get replaced...

Eustice is quite wrong with this statement: Eustice, the MP for Camborne, Redruth and Hayle, also criticised the conduct of the Brussels negotiators. “I do not believe that the commission has behaved honourably during these negotiations,” he said. “They have deliberately made progress slow and...

In fairness though he is involved, since our Leave decision could have a very serious effect on his country, its Northern counterpart within the UK and their joint 6 millions. .

Then see Danidl's previous post. And my reply below it. .

Nothing remotely tenuous about a fanatical Leave believer murdering a Remain MP because of her Remain beliefs. It's as real as evidence can get to justify my suggestion that some might think it could happen again. But not me, as I made absolutely clear. .

See here .

Everything is to do with Brexit, just as everything in life is political. This thread reflects that, covering a vast range of subjects, often with the most tenuous of connection. Each subject starts with a connection which leads away from the main subject. In this case the Labour Party's and...

Jo Cox MP, murdered by a Far Right Leave believer who objected enough to Jo's firm Remain stance to shoot and stab her. .

They'd have no option but to accept it, since it would be the last preference expressed. No different from the way general elections produce opposite choices. No different from the change in view between the 1975 and 2016 referendums. Times and circumstances bring change, both short and long...

I don't agree, talking sense is ineffective. If the people had known sense they wouldn't have believed all the leave campaign lies, voted leave and created all this chaos and uncertainty. I don't believe any campaigning in a fresh referendum will have any effect, since the public know what...

They left too, only they call it the Diaspora. And a warning from history, they didn't get a trade deal. ;) .

They were legally expelled by the rulers of that land some 2000 years ago, losing their right to live there. They regained some of that land by internationally accepted force 70 years ago, but since then have been illegally stealing further land and oppressing those who own it. That's not...

Already done. The United Nations has passed two resolutions long ago which Israel refuses to comply with, so we all know who is in the wrong. .

Really? Strange that the Palestinians had lived there for thousands of years without growing any food. .

The ST2 is definitely S-class so its motor is no more than 500 watts legal rating, but I don't know anything about the ST2S. Our UK laws are very clear, but as you say somewhat restrictive. We are not alone in this, the throttle bans are from the EU for example, as are the L1e-A and B...
