One effect of crash out Brexit will be a massive improvement in the UK's government income and cash flow. Under WTO rules every car coming into the UK will be subject to a duty of 10% and most food subject to 35%,this will be paid by the importer immediately upon import. At the same moment all...

Rees-Mogg says that he wants the UK to be like Singapore. So,I thought,I would look up Singapore-economically and socially... Income Tax.....up to £10,000....tax free up to £20,000....11% above £160,000....22% I have simplified it,there are...

Isnt that watching our front? Feels better looking west. KudosDave

Ok I googled the Tory election system for their leader. The Tory PM,s vote until the selection is down to two,then the membership vote on a one vote per member,first past the post. After Cameron,Boris dropped out after he realised he would get very few votes,helped by Gove stabbing him in the...

That is the voting method in the Labour Party but I don't think it is in the Tory Party,when Cameron stood down it was the MPs who voted between Leadsom and May. Maybe someone who knows can set us right,I am not sure of the system. I just don't see why anyone would want Boris except the small...

Boris could only manage 29 votes when Cameron stood down ,that is why he dropped out of the leadership contest,leaving it to Leadsom v May....May had a landslide of votes....what has changed in the parliament that would make them support Boris? KudosDave

Don't worry Brexit is not going to happen....if the Tories were 100 % aligned it would have been difficult but maybe possible,but the splits will soon be war inside the Tory cabinet and Davis won't have a clue what he is supposed to be achieving. KudosDave

But the majority of the Tory MP's are still largely Remain,they just need a break from the shackles of the Tory bastards and they would love to vote for a second referendum. I suspect that the hard right are on the retreat,sacking Boris will bring this all out in the open,May,Hammond and Rudd...

I have purchased from China for 15 years,I now have 130 plus suppliers,the Chinese love whisky and often open up over a bottle of Johnnie Walker(ganbei!) but without exception they ask me not to repeat what they have revealed. So I will honour their requests,it is a question you will have to ask...

You are correct 20000 euros minimum and they make it as difficult as possible for a non German. I tried to put a special VW Golf brake calliper through TUV ,I gave up. KudosDave

An interesting poll today from YouGuv suggested that public opinion has changed regarding leaving the EU. Overal 42% now want to Leave and 47% want to stay.....for women only 40% want Leave and 49% want stay. YouGuv called the last GE correctly. Ok we all know how unreliable polls can be,but...

Testing in a EU approved testing house,,,,,effectively that means TUV....some time ago I tried to put a product through TUV....do you know how expensive that is? KudosDave

Sorry,just heard a young Irish guy,good looking guy on Sky....I thought they said he was a possible but may have misheard and he may be your current one. He was certainly very concerned about current and future Irish trade,both now and post Brexit. KudosDave

That's a lot to take in one posting. We don't know that the EU will let us use their standards,no more than they will let us use EN 15194 in the UK,I suspect they will want that to continue otherwise the Germans will not be able to sell e-bikes in the UK....they may insist on all UK bikes being...

Theresa May has said that we are leaving the single market and the customs union,she has repeated that many times. If we crash out we will definitely be leaving both. The extent of the anti-dumping duties are not so special......bicycles,alloy wheels,leather handbags,special steels. It is the UK...

I may have misunderstood your posting,are you suggesting that I have one pricing structure to Eire and another to the north,to compensate the retailer in the south? KudosDave

Go for it,it will be a pleasure to see it a success... The biggest problem I see is part sourcing.....the Chinese have constant parts supply problems,this is made worse by the Chinese government closing polluting factories to try to improve their pollution problems. Recently they shut for 2...

I don't think that remaining in the EU will be a wonderful place to be,it is clearly corrupt,what government isn't,it has some strange standards and is headed by some people I cannot stand. But what I am absolutely certain is that leaving will make the UK poorer,both socially and economically,I...

Peter....do I really have to explain how a Euro to Pound exchange rate of 1.13 makes it attractive for a customer in Ireland to drive across the border. And I am sure you understand that a zero tariff bike bought from China into the north might be cheaper than an EU 55% tariff paid bike into the...
