    Unidentified scooter

    Not here, it would have to have working pedals for any chance of that classification.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    They were the Leavers using a bus to campaign to maximum effect, so bus drivers sons should be right up their street. :) .

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Sajid Javid now Home Secretary, leaving him well placed to take over from Theresa May as Tory Leader and possibly Prime Minister Sadiq Khan is the London mayor, Labour's top position outside of parliament. Both are sons of bus drivers here. Schools careers advisors take note! .

    Taking e-Bike on plane

    I can't remember the size and capacity limits offhand, but you are right, it's far smaller than your batteries, covering laptops but not e-bikes. In short you cannot take your batteries with you as cabin luggage. If you turn up with them they'll either confiscate them or ban you from boarding...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Yes I agree, but it's not the point I made, that the present position is worth more to the Spanish government. It's not just the cash, the common ground they have with the Spanish people over the Rock is valuable, the common enemy position. With that solved they'd be left with the far from...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    That doesn't work and never will. All the Majors and Blairs achieve is to divide their parties, each having their own "bast**ds" struggling to get their party back to it's true right or left position. Both main parties are still suffering the legacy of that. They can't occupy the middle...

    Spain will put cash first, as will the rest. Arguing about the rock is better for Spain than actually getting it back. .

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    True conservatives maybe? Their not my personal choice but I prefer the parties to revert to their true positions rather than the Blair & Cameron style of competing over the same spot in the middle of the road. Corbyn's getting there, but both the Labour and Tory parties in parliament are...

    Probably because that's mainly what they get asked about these days, areas where they have to follow the party line. .

    It was considered by a few but they didn't dare, since it would have put them in direct confrontation with the public's referendum vote to leave. The HoL's function is to assist with, monitor and where felt necessary modify the government's legislation. It has no power to challenge the...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Seems to be only an operational merger, chiefly for buying power. Sainsburys has to discuss it with Walmart since they are the ASDA owners, but it doesn't mean a takeover. The complication is Walmart's size, a tiddler merging with a giant. .

    Royal Baby

    Yesterday on radio a representative of theirs when asked if they'd play one of the new songs said "No". So that's ok then, so long as they continue to refuse to let anyone hear them, we're safe. .

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I agree not in our interests, putting twice as much of our Supermarkets in the American hands of Walmart (who own ASDA) and our supermarket shopping profits mostly going to Germany and the USA. In Brexit terms, not exactly "taking back control". .

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    It doesn't indicate premature judgment. Fisk's report could equally be correct if the Western allies were lying and either staged an attack treatment simulation or knew it was staged. I firmly believe our authorities were involved in a deceit, due to the early attempt to include Russia in the...

    He wouldn't care. The important thing to understand about Boris Johnson is that he has no principles whatsover. Only Boris Johnson's interests matter to him. .

    If he does it will be nothing to do with a customs union. He never wanted the Foreign Secretary job and hates doing it, so any excuse will do to get out of it. It would also detach him from the vulnerable Theresa May, handy for the future when she is thrown out by her own party. .
