    Brexit, for once some facts.

    A state visit would be here in London where well under half the population are white British born and a very high proportion are Muslims. In fact we have residents from all the main 300 countries, including Mexicans, and natives of all the countries that the USA has attacked in the last half...

    Dual Power E-Bike Hi I am a New Member looking to by a legal e-bike

    I've always taken a similar line to d8veh on this issue, taking the view that only an assist speed limit is necessary and that the required power is a matter for designers, not legislators. The sad thing is that we have no political opposition to this, indeed some while ago the European...

    England win 2017 Football World Cup

    It was the under 20 world cup, but still an England mens team triumphing, beating Venezuela 1 - 0 in the final. I announced their reaching the semi-final in this thread, but thought the win worthy of headlining in a separate announcement. The future for the Football League and England's main...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Agreed, I'm no fan of Boris Johnson, but in this instance perhaps not returning the barriers after the very recent Westminster Bridge attack is the real failing. .

    When are they going to stop amateurs driving supercars?

    And they have an absolute right to, it's their life, nobody elses. The modern world has far too many interfering busybodies, both official and amateur. .

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    You can add me to the list, I see nothing wrong in the people of a country defending themselves against heavily armed murdering imperialist aggressors. .

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I don't know how Stoke South stands in the hierarchy, but if the Tories were asked to list constituencies they'd never lose, Kensington would be one of the first they thought of. Together with alongside Chelsea with which it's often paired, it's a very upper crust rich area. Think Harrods and...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I completely disagree and think you are misreading every aspect. They've made a great platform for them to take off from next time, while Theresa May has left her own reputation in ruins and harmed her party's prospects. The Tories problem is that they paraded all the other possible leaders...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Yes, coming second in a football match is losing. But coming second in a multi-competitor election as Jeremy Corbyn's Labour did is a success. It's why podiums have three positions for the successful competitors in multi-competitor events. And how about Kensington? That's always been...

    Pet hates?

    Twice the weight, twice the damage. Seems reasonable. The same reasoning is applied to motor vehicle traffic on our roads. .

    So they should, they are protecting twice the value. :p . .

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I've said nothing about destroying him and my complaints have been directed against the Tories, rather than the press reporting of what they've said. There's nothing mutually exclusive here. The anti-Corbyn propaganda did have a huge effect on large numbers of the electorate as we know from...

    He has mentioned it. He is pro EU but has said he will abide by the referendum result. No different from Theresa May in fact, since she was also a remainer. .

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Not so. Your mistake is that for years, like so much of the UK public, you've believed the Tory lies that our socialists like Jeremy Corbyn are extreme left wing, almost akin to communists. In mainland Europe Jeremy Corbyn would be viewed as simply a socialist, not at all extreme. He has much...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I haven't said either of these. The wheel of fortune has delivered what I said, just as it's delivered the poisoned outcome for the Tories. The result will be the Tories suffering what Labour have by sheer good luck avoided. So I've said, and I quote: "That leaves them well placed for the...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Which is why in my view Labour won the general election. They've emerged with the strongest and most capable current leader by far, yet avoided the most poisoned chalice in living political history. That leaves them well placed for the future. .
