    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I don't think JC would re-nationalise rail, water and electricity anytime soon. The aspiration is there but we have been living off foreign direct investments for so long that it will take at least a generation to wean off that level of dependency on the goodness (or greed) of strangers. We need...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    BJ said at the 'One Nation' husting that the tories face 'extinction' if they fail to deliver brexit, presumably on October 31st. If they try to deliver an WTO brexit, they face extinction anyway.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Donald Trump has, in his own inimitable way, done a lot of good to the brexit debate by explaining the reality of trade negotiation. If we leave, we should join EFTA.

    brexit or not, education has become so expensive now that I don't think we are going to dominate the world in anything other than in song writing and football.

    Kenneth Clarke and David Gauke have declared support for Rory Stewart.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    no. Those calling for second referendum sit on the fence, are coloured grey and labelled as undecided in the brexit charts. They are closet remainers, wishing brexit to somehow just go away.

    Help! short circuiting 3 hall sensor wires with red wire - motor hall sensor

    a lot of controllers have automatic Hall sensor detection, if you disconnect the sensors, the motor will still run although there are exceptions. All the large direct drive beasts won't work without Hall, their starting torque is too low to rev up the motor without the sensors The controller...

    Help! short circuiting 3 hall sensor wires with red wire - motor hall sensor

    don't short the Hall wires! If you don't want to use the Hall sensors, leave them unconnected. The signal wire is switched between the 5V supply and ground, depending on the position of the magnets. Most motors use 9-pin waterproof connectors. 3 large pins for the phase wires, 5 for the Hall...

    they may be sick with the confrontational setup we have in parliament, two leaders facing one another every Wednesday at noon to hurl criticism and sometimes insults at their opposite number. Last night BBCQT was not the usual shouting the other side down. For once, you can listen to both sides...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    there is no majority for WTO brexit. A lot of people may say 'just get us out' - not many can articulate reasons for any one form of brexit. Not so long ago, EFTA membership was discussed quite favourably, until the hard brexiters put a stop to it.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    the problem is the arithmetic of our parliament. No deal was taken off the table with just one vote. Even so, there is no majority at the moment among MPs for any brexit. The answer is a new parliamentary arithmetic, with a fresh GE. People now know much better who they want to represent them...

    it hasn't hit anything. Parliament remains undecided after 3 years or haggling. The correct way is JC's way: new GE. This time, Labour should campaign for a soft brexit with confirmatory referendum.

    so you won't be surprised if a campaign to rejoin after brexit succeeds or Scotland leaves the UK at IndyRef2 next year or 2021 then? if so, then you should support leave and rejoin, Scotland leave and rejoin too. That means leave first.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    reality may be a lot simpler than that. Leave's message was simple, to the point while remain's message was trying to explain why we should not change. No wonder Leave's message has more hits. As Reagan once said, if you are explaining, you are losing. Remain's message should be like Vince...

    it's difficult for any local government selling state owned companies and retaining some control like we did with Lloyds bank. Imagine JC setting up a national investment bank under the DFI, buying back electricity, water and rail.
