    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I hear what you say but selling brexit to MPs is not the same as selling brexit to voters. The way the tories sell brexit is not going to work. It's squaring the circle, based on the basis that the EU will always blink and yield. That happens now and then when their interest demands it but WTO...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    it's misplaced pride. the way the tories sell brexit is doomed to fail, it's just a question how soon. They (the tories) made lots of simple promises based on the EU yielding to them (having cake and eating it). This is not going to work, the EU27 is 8 times our size and holds 44% of our...

    JRM and BJ continue to vote aganst the PM because doing otherwise signifies they have accepted defeat. No deal has very limited support from MPs.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    possible routes seem to narrow down to just two options: revoke A50 or long extension. TM seems to accept the likelihood that her deal and no deal are not going to get enough support, only two other options left: revoke A50 or delay A50 further until her deal is accepted. She will be well gone...

    Why many ebikes exceed UK/EU maximum of 250W

    manufacturer or importer of the kits and e-bikes should indicate that their kits or e-bikes are legal or not. Their label spells out where they stand. If my kit has a manufacturer's label saying that it's 250W then the kit is presumed to conform to EN15194 or 'road legal'. Still, a label saying...

    you should consider too neutral sources when it comes to data. (Tommie's source is the westmonster website, dedicated to fighting for leavers). This is the analysis from Professor Curtice: https://whatukthinks.org/eu/author/johncurtice/ while Leavers are moving toward wanting their MPs to vote...

    Why many ebikes exceed UK/EU maximum of 250W

    the current law does not stop you buying and riding a high powered electric motorbike. You have to ride it on the roads, wear helmet and pay insurance. The EAPC law is different, it's a concession to low powered e-bikes to be treated like normal push bikes.

    are you saying that because TM asked for an extension, she betrayed brexit? ask those who support no deal. They are the ones who push remainers to fight brexit.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I don't think it will come to that. The more pressing point is who is going to replace TM. When she accused MPs of not helping brexit, she has already accepted that her time is fast running out. The next PM, even as a standing in, will want to extend A50 for a year. The EU would want to know in...

    it's just adding a new regulation to change the date of brexit to 12th April, then another one on the 11th April to change again.

    New Gtech ebike

    Have you tested to walk in a Halfords branch and have your GTech fixed on the same day? and for £300 spare on a £683 bike (the figure you posted as the cost of your Gtech), if my bikes are that expensive to support, I'd be out of business long time ago.
