the number of immigrants will have to come down because the economy is predicted to contract a little after brexit. Also, if legislation is introduced to incentivise employers to take on local labour, then there will be less pressure on housing. As far as university education is concerned, I...

not pie in the sky. Brexit has not happened yet but you can project some likely consequences. we have a housing crisis because we have to house 350,000 immigrants a year. If you reduce the number of immigrants, the pressure on housing is reduced. If we have less FDI as a result of restricted...

lower house prices, better saving rate, no tuition fees, more social housing.

MPs should be more imaginative - the EU says there is no exit bill, we signed up to a multi-year program, like taking out a lease on a property. The solution is surely finding a way to use the time left on the lease for the best.

I think Labour MPs feel obliged to represent their constituencies that voted leave. As for why so many Labour voters chose to leave, it's the result of Osbourne's austerity program. Labour voters tend to be poorer, more affected by austerity policies, therefore more sympathetic to the £350...

I would have said the other way round. Blame the lazy voters if you want but to me, remainers' arguments have been very well explained, albeit left a lot of voters unconvinced. Brexiters' arguments are very straightforward, 'charity begins at home', 'take back control' just don't need explaining...

what are the chances that one of the posters is going to change his views on brexit? however, FFWIW, this thread is a rare one, where remainers put forward some emotional reasons to remain, elsewhere, the arguments for remain are only economic.

I think £650 is a fair price. It's in very good nick but out of guarantee.

41% of British public find £10 billion exit fee acceptable. £10b That's it. No more. As much as the attitude toward paying has softened, at this rate, we are going to find it very difficult to cough up enough to make a deal possible. The only way to engage the public to face the consequences of...

we like it simple and easy, that's why we prefer trading to making.

the vast majority of businesses are SMEs, nobody is going to change that. We all need large businesses too, which can run large projects, train people, advance science etc. the kind of regulations that the EU develop within the scope of the Single Market affects more and more very small...

true enough, there will always be plenty of scope for cheap labour. After the brexit vote, non EU immigration 179,000 while EU immigration came down to 127,000.

Peter, I can assure you that I am anything but a communist. that's not a bad approximation. We've been living on a ponzi scheme ever since the first coin got invented, well before paper money, IOUs, banks and cheques, M2, M3 and M4.

thank you for the tip. may be I should call my 48V kits 46V too.

I think 12S is legal because the EN15194 specs are for battery at nominal voltage (43V). where the cable comes out, the shape looks like it can act as anti-rotation device at the same time. Bafang may have designed the hangers for their new motor - who knows.

any grease will do. I usually use white lithium grease because it's white.

That is why I suggest PeterL to take a look. The problem is JRM is simplistic. Let me take his first point: Of course it's true that 10 million lunches are served in London without the need for ministerial involvement, but that is only apparent need, when you look closely, these meals are...

but we expect a lot more from our politicians to lead us. JRM's views are simplistic. It's OK for a guy who did History at uni to be simple minded when it comes to economy and tax but we demand a lot more from our clever people. I suggest you read some introduction to keynesian economics. We...

now you mentioned it: perfect water proofing! but I can't see how you are going to open it... Bafang seem to push 43V systems.

yes, plenty. But as they are his arguments, it's not worth to argue with someone who does not post on here. I am much more interested in your own view.
