    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I've taken no notice of the insults in this thread, simply because I know the participants if face to face would be buying each other drinks. It's politics, just as in the House of Commons they abuse each other but are friends outside of the chamber. The arguments are about political...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    She hasn't got a cat-in-hell's chance. The EU has been trying to do that for nine years with no success, and they are not alone in that failure. Worst of all is that India always excludes services from every deal to protect themselves, and services are 80% of our exports. .

    Why am I getting dating adds ?

    This isn't anything to do with the pedelecs forum, like most members I get none of these, only seeing e-bike ads above and at the right. Something must have entered your system which is prompting these alien ads to enter your viewing. It may help if you check the history in your browser and...

    I don't like censorship either, but I can see the occasional circumstance when it can be a bit less objectionable. .

    Then I give up Eddie, no idea which one(s) you mean. I don't look at them all these days as I did long ago, not enough time due to other activities. .

    Just pick any one page of the last 300 and you'll know what's been posted on all the others! :D It's the pedelecs equivalent of Prime Minister's Question Time. .

    Ignore function for threads

    There's a huge volume of stuff I don't like on the internet, and some of it gets thrust in my face when I use search engines. I just ignore it. I'm guessing it's probably the Brexit thread that's upsetting you and others, but it's not even in the cycling forums of this site. Being in an...

    There isn't any function to do that, but as Arstu says, why not just ignore the threads you don't like by not opening them? Too simple? .

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    That would doubly upset a large number of them, coming as they do from Afghanistan, Ghana, Nigeria, Angola, Libya and many other locations unconnected with Syria or its civil war. I agree they should be sent back to their home countries as unauthorised economic migrants who are taking advantage...

    New way to ship batteries from China?

    Just been listening on Radio 4 news to a fascinating item on the "New Silk Road". In part this includes a rail route handling increasing amounts of goods from China to Europe in much less time that ships take. With the ban of flying large lithium batteries and the long sea route, this overland...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    They may act in a different way, not blocking article 50 notice but imposing conditions on the type and nature of Brexit, with the final EU deal subject to parliamentary acceptance. In other words, putting themselves in charge, as they should have been all along, rather than it being handed to...

    Didn't work with me though Tom. Six years in but I still remained the rebel inside throughout, just practising the art of acting! .

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    There's another way of looking at this which could be in her mind. The terms for leaving may become so unacceptable that we have to abandon leaving the EU. In that circumstance abandonment will have gained widespread support, leaving the remaining hard core leavers disappointed. But they...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    This has been my opinion for a while now, I think Tillson fell very much in love with her when she first came to the fore, but is embarrassed by his state. The attacks on her are probably a way of denying his unrequited feelings. .

    He's being smart in getting out before the job becomes impossible. It won't be long now for Governor of the Bank of England and Chancellor of the Exchequer to become poisoned chalices. Michael Gove now wants be let back in from the cold, but the latter could be the job he'll end up with if...
