    Brexit, for once some facts.

    brexit can be good enough to justify the cost, brexit architects need a degree of self doubt to reduce the risks to the economy to manageable.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    pretty telling from Boris Johnson's resigning letter: "Brexit should be about opportunity and hope. It should be a chance to do things differently, to be more nimble and dynamic, and to maximise the particular advantages of the UK being an open, outward-looking global economy. That dream is...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I don't pay much attention to that kind of argument because if voters can't change their mind then it's not democracy.

    I don't think JC would do any better under the same circumstance.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    no, just arithmetic. At least six factions will vote tactically in parliament: even if the SNP and LibDems vote together, you still have Con and Con right + DUP, Lab left and Lab. They would rather vote down anything they don't like so if you have 6 choices of brexit, you get one faction to...

    Performance of different motors?

    you have to consider factors like reduction ratio, magnet size and weight. it is usually easier to compare two concrete motors rather than a hypothetical case.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    the call for a second referendum is gaining attention because of the current parliament arithmetic: there is no majority for any form of brexit.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    a comment posted on the DT today: "What a ridiculous world. The Left of the Labour Party is likely to ally with the Right of the Conservative party, which could undermine all the hard-won social gains of the EU and 'F*** business'. Do any of these clowns know what they're doing or why?"

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I have been watching a QT style debate on Victoria Derbyshire this morning. It seems that public opinion is a little more sympathetic toward second referendum than before. May Brexit not happen?

    what air pressure do you have in your rear tyre? also, when you sit on the bike, do you hear any creaking noise from the spokes or rim?

    Need Stronger wheel / spokes

    don't worry about your weight. check that all the spokes are evenly tensioned, no lose spokes. check that the rim is trued. check also the holes in the rim for sign of damage. You could throw good money trying to replace spokes if the metal around the holes can't hold the spokes.

    Very heavy rider (25st+) - Is it worth even trying?

    'so long as you stay on the road and are careful avoid kerbs/potholes.' that's good advice. On flat or slightly inclined roads, any good bike will do for your weight. However, it's tough for the motor assisting you in a hill climb, you need a beefy motor for that. So, start with some test rides...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I wouldn't write off TM as yet. The parliamentary arithmetic is such that there is no real support for hard brexit, only a soft brexit or no brexit are in the running with no brexit well behind because of its democracy deficit. TM has to empty the room of unicornists. Two of them are gone, the...
