    The problem with E-bikes in the UK.

    We are much further on than that in London. We already have 400 lamp post charge points run by German company Ubitricity and there are current contracts out to bring that quickly to 1192. .

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    That's a dishonest poll. Asking if May's deal is the best on the table, of course most will agree when it's the only one on the table. Typical Daily Mail. .

    But it stands to reason that countries have armies, and a single country called Europe or USE would be no different. .

    I'm betting they allow us EFTA with an opt out on the euro. They have enough euro alignment problems already without us added to them. .

    The problem with E-bikes in the UK.

    No, they absolutely are not and a warranty is voided if towing is attempted with most popular e-cars. On popular ones like the Nissan Leaf and Renault Zoe there's no suitable attachment points at the rear, the whole of the centre base is occupied by the battery and no tow bars are made for...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Not to illustrate my simple point that the subject was mentioned during the referendum campaign. I posted the link to your post to ensure others could read all that you posted to see the context, but it wasn't relevant to my point, even though I agreed with your thoughts. .

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I've no idea if an official campaigner mentioned it, but it was definitely mentioned at times during the campaign in the media and by Leavers.. Also by you 20 days before the referendum with this: "The most outrageous recent claim from the Brexit side was that Europe was intent of having a...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    The EU having a European Army was originally seriously raised by Jean-Claude Juncker in March 2015, as a way of deterring Russian aggression. That was long before the referendum campaign of course. Information link .

    Indeed and benefitting. Despite the scale of their gross obesity, no NHS and widespread severe deprivation, their life expectancy is close to ours. .

    It would be a lot healthier than McDonalds or Kentucky Fried Chicken. Many healthy human populations already eat such arthropods regularly and have done for countless thousands of years. .

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Surely it's only sensible to oppose when disagreeing? The current Labour opposition do oppose on many issues, but are not against leaving the EU so have nothing to oppose on that issue. I'd prefer they represent the public opposition of the Remainers, but I don't write their manifesto. .

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    You're right, most here didn't want those additions. But I think immigration was also a very big issue for a high proportion of Leavers, though perhaps not so much now that they've seen much needed nurses, doctors and building workers leaving us in droves. .

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I know what you mean, but the trouble was that we were obstructed from finding that out from the outset. Phase one of the leaving talks was to set a structure and the EU insisted we could only negotiate through their negotiator, not with individual countries. David Cameron tried to bypass that...

    Showing clearly just how much she is betraying us now with her Brexit means Brexit rigidity. Her excellent speech back then clearly demonstrates that we absolutely should remain in the EU and should discount the very marginal advisory referendum result. That didn't amount to any clear...

    Indeed, and not just Germany, Italy is far better than us at trade in a wide variety of areas. In fashion for example, their famous multiple brands are present with retail outlets all over the world, cashing in on the nouveau riche in advancing countries. .

    Indeed, and I'd add to all that the strength of personal saving in Italy, that alone making the country financially viable and safe. We match that in the UK with the opposite, huge personal debt, much of it on credit cards of various types. .
