Congratulations to Starmer for his One in One Out Agreement with France. Yesterday on Friday 19th September two illegal arrivals from France were returned to Paris on an Air France flight. Unfortunately for everyone trying to buy a home, rent a home, get an appointment for medical treatment...

Yes - two weeks running - at pretty much the same time, I saw such a character riding the same pedestrian only road in Newcastle. He spends about a third of the time with the front wheel reared up off the road - usually when he passes pedestrians. This is it. I think he is likely a drug...

He might have worked in bomb disposal before he started doing batteries. That's why he can keep so cool when poking that screwdriver two millimetres from a dead short on 8 charged up cells in parallel. How many amps could he have seen going through that driver blade if he had poked it just a...

Oh dear.... https://www.electoralcalculus.co.uk/homepage.html This is what happens when established parties take the electorate for granted and ignore and scorn their demands.

The problem about taxing corporations more is that in the end, it isn't the corporations who pay. Their customers - you and I are the ones who pay. They simply put up the prices. At the last budget, Rachel Reeves taxed employers by increasing the NI they had to pay on every employee. But who...

Bodge indeed. Health warning needed.

This phenomenon of loss of range in cold weather, is a feature of pretty much all battery systems. A lithium battery is a chemically driven device ,and the reactions inside the cells in which lithium ions move across the electrically insulating separator depend on temperature for efficient...

France spends far too much and taxes far too much. Its debt to GDP ratio is twice the maximum allowed by EU rules. People retire at an unrealistic age and fall on to state support when life expectancy is rising, and the politicians contrive a coalition to keep out what I think may be the largest...

Solder sucker, flux and wicking copper braid. You can get any amount of connections free, with good flux and braid. Just dont overheat the tracks and raise them from the pcb. Much better not to have to do it though, and at the price of chinese motors, some would think it not worth the trouble.

Oh dear - This story reminds me of the number of times I have finished a mechanical reassembly and realised that I still had an unused screw or bolt from somewhere deep inside whatever it was I was mending. Only in this case it is worse, because the cables will not allow disassembly without...

I think it is a damned shame that Your business was rubbished here and on youtube over this matter. 1. The battery was recalled years ago, but somehow not done - Not Your fault. 2. The complaint about customer service failings is false. However it happened (too busy to check messages) you DID...

I wonder what the new Product Regulation and Metrology Act 2025, passing through Parliament might do to the availability of readily repairable e-bikes and parts. Some have said that it will increase canbus type designs which means you won't be as able to mix and match parts, or maybe even get...

That looks ok. Nothing burned or obviously water contaminated. I'm going to bet on the lcd being duff, or its connecting cable. This is a guess though. Maybe, also test continuity in the cable between the controler and the female socket. The lcd line might conceivably be open circuit in that...

You assume that he saw something to report. I have no idea and neither do you about what he knew. If the birthday card thing is genuine, its cryptic language might be thought to involve him in dubious 'secrets'. That needs to be established. My point was that Mandelson seemed almost to be in...

Some people are involved in the Epstein scandals right up to their necks. Others were I think simply taken in by a smooth tongued villain. Some criminals are instantly obvious to anyone who meets them, but others can be difficult to spot unless they reveal their villainy. I am quite prepared...

Yes - you are right there. I've posted many many criticisms of Trump, but to be fair, he did break with Epstein well back and unlike Mandelson, he did not as far as I know engage in an email exchange advising him to fight the conviction, denying that he did what he did. I must say - I am not...

Are you feeling unwell? There is something wrong with you. He had sexual activity with a child in his care and plotted to have her again in a hotel room only stopped by hotel staff anf the police and he got a suspended sentence. I don't think you should be posting. You are obviously not...

Then there is this atrocious case: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cly65xkz1xko https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025/sep/15/doctor-who-left-patient-during-operation-to-have-sex-allowed-to-practise Anaesthetist leaves patient under anaesthetic during operation to go and have sex with...

You clearly didn't read the articles I referenced. These details may be offensive to some people: 1. He was the teacher of an under aged girl at a school 2. He was 27 and she was a child. 3. He had taken her in his car and parked up, during which time he fondled her breasts while she 'handled...
