    No. I gave up driving over the speed limit after having my second child.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    trust, not fear. I'd leave this country when I start fearing the police.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    in principle, I am against disclosing priviledged information. Trust in our institutions is the basis that compels everyone to obey the law.

    EBMA files an anti dumping complaint on chinese e-bikes.

    it is a pretty futile exercise from the EBMA - in a few years, Bosch may have to go back to making washing machines and fridges.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    OG, no surprise there. We have to rely on the right wing press to explain the advantages of soft brexit.

    EBMA files an anti dumping complaint on chinese e-bikes.

    I think they target Bafang and Shimano mid drives because the two companies have the technology to win market share. I don't think they bother much about hub drive bikes.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I watched the BBC interview of the retired policeman in the DG case. He did not impress me much to qualify as an 'expert computer forensic' when he mentioned his findings.

    How much power would i theoretically need?

    You need about 1000W mechanical power to maintain 30mph on flat roads. Try to work out how fast you can pedal without motor, then go to http://www.ebikes.ca/tools/simulator.html?axis=mph to look up (on the load curve) how much your legs produced. The electrical system will need to produce the...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    brexit does not mean no immigrants, it's just at more sustainable and controlled level. They have to live in London because of their jobs and they want to start a family. Prices of a 3-bed house in London have reached stupid levels. Both of them work very hard just to afford to pay the mortgage...

    you don't listen to them anymore than they listen to you. They don't want more immigration, more Brussels interference and certainly no US of E.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    My children are born here, in Essex but that's not the point. The economic landscape is naturally complex, remainers keep banging on about the dire economic consequences of brexit which I find often exaggerated. We have a fairly flexible, resilient economy and if my prediction for a soft brexit...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    there is no single reason why people voted for brexit, austerity is just one of many. If they have to vote again, those 20% with the least income will likely to stick to their previous choice.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I am a close observer of house/rent prices in London because my son wants to sell his flat and buy a house just at the time of the referendum. He is still at it. You are probably aware how high rent is in London. The effect of immigration is nowhere more obvious than house prices in London. It's...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    we may have lost a bit of tax from 100,000 fewer immigrants but you should balance that against its effect on house price inflation which is also the prime force behind the high cost of residential rents.
