you should ask FB and Aaron Banks about that. It's their databases after all. We use a lot of online 'free' services. At the end of the day, it's partly our fault to be so trusting.

He did not break any law and it's his job to deliver a victory for his side. The fault is of the government to have created as many as 3 million angry voters ready to punish it.

are you going to watch Cumberbatch Monday on Channel 4? quote: The drama, which also takes in such highly topical subjects as data mining, the power of social media and fake news, shows that even though Cummings is largely unknown to the general public, he had an enormous influence on the...

the kits I sell are usually good for climbing up to 15% gradient without sweating. The BBSHD 1000W can go a bit higher, 20%. How often you need that extra ability?

yes, in some areas. We pool sovereignty in the area of the functioning of the single market. This is because the benefit of a larger single market is very considerable. We can negotiate better deals and cut production cost leading to higher purchasing power to all 500 million EU citizens...

sorry, it was a mistake. speed of light is slower in water, as you said, proven by the refraction index of water, 1.33. I blame the old age. I was watching some documentary about some nuclear generator a little earlier where one could see the blue light leaking out by Cherenkov radiation. That's...

yes, I did buy some shares using HL, I also use other brokers but their role is just that, execution and I paid their £30 or so fees. As for funds supermarket, I prefer fidelity. It's done by computers, no skill involved. If you want to buy managed funds, morningstar.co.uk has all the stats...

only in our region of space and in vacuum. In water for example, light travels faster than in vacuum. Even vacuum is never a perfect vacuum. When the universe was created, it is assumed that the initial expansion did not follow our current laws of physics. Einstein's Relativity is one theory. It...

He runs a supermarket. I suppose you buy his unit trusts? they don't have any particular skills. They cast their net wide, eventually catching some lazy investors. If you want your money to work for you, invest it yourself.

after brexit, this country will be in the hand of the likes of Liam Fox, Chris Grayling, Jeremy Hunt, Gavin Williamson, David Davis, Dominic Raab and god forbid, Boris Johnson. Give me the name of someone good brexiter that you would trust your money to.

bike weight is coming down. There are now a few models in the 11kgs-14kgs range. I have a 14kg road bike (Karoo 2019 with 36V 8AH battery) with a range about 30 miles. http://wooshbikes.co.uk/2018/karoo/karoo-800.jpg Juicy bikes have a similar bike, called the Ticket...

I would suggest you convert a lightweight folding bike like the Dahon Speed Uno.

I am for a soft brexit, Norway style. I believe in the EU SM, not so much in CU.

Blair did not want to return to Westminster. He did not get kicked out, certainly not by the electorate.

Westminster still holds the right to make laws in this country, we only share a portion of our control. To imagine that the bunch of idiots in Westminster can run the UK internal SM post brexit better than the EU wide SM is risky.

that's the nub of the problem. UK politics is incredibly tribal. We imagine that we can remove the self serving idiots but in reality, can we? We don't ever remove the two main parties that pass power between them: conservatives and Labour. Can anyone give me a single example where rubbish PMs...

truth is indeed relative. you should know. Take a straight line. It's still a curve and its curvature can be concave or convex, depending how you see it.

mid drives are lighter. Range is about the same, unless you have a lot of hills, battery consumption is mainly a function of speed. Consumption per mile is proportional to speed cubed.

WTO brexit is attractive to conservative voters because they don't have to face the cost of brexit immediately. But it's only a short term option, OK for a few months, we will have to settle with the EU soon after we leave.

The banning of the throttle is often misunderstood. Throttles are not banned, only the twist and go throttle is banned on factory made bikes. it is applicable only to the manufacturers and importers. Customers are not prosecuted for having it fitted or using it. Indeed, throttle is usually...
