    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I don't think so,that system is pretty much how all my German distributors are housed. The local council provide the land free of charge,the trader has to build the warehouse/factory.....business rates are depended upon the area v No of employees,but at worst case they are 10% than the UK. I pay...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    The press are starting to talk about the reunification of Ireland,in an opinion poll in Northern Ireland it's about 50/50 split. The English/Wales government (note we are no longer GB) would have to give about 9 billion euros as a sweetener to the deal......I bet the Brexiters are keen on that...

    Isn't the Independent a right wing rag? Anyway,these numbers assume the trading revenue stays the same under a new tariff regime....they don't take account of the revenue reducing because of the tariff wall.....if all the car assemblers left the UK because of tariffs that would a cost more than...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    This government have already started to renege on their promises to maintain the EU regional development grants. Cornwall was promised £60 million by the EU ,this government have reduced that to £18million and haven't even triggered Article 50. KudosDave

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Peter Whittle,deputy leader of UKIP is the biggest hypocrite,he is saying on the TV that UKIP is now the friend of immigration. Do you remember Nigel Farage standing in front of the anti immigration poster. UKIP are getting their way,immigrants think they are not welcome here,this is...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    You are wrong WTO tariffs average out at 10%. The current EU/UK tariff from China is about 4% average. If you take the situation of BMW Mini...parts cross the Channel 4 times just to assemble the Mini in the UK. 50% of Minis are already made in the EU,if you were BMW it is surely logical to only...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I agree there were many reasons why people voted Brexit,but May and Co have hi-jacked Brexit for right wing motives that rarely aligns with the motives that most voters thought when they originally voted. KudosDave

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    If Le Pen gets into power in France,she has said she will Frexit both the EU and the Euro,that will be the end of the EU. Also probably the end of Brexit because we can hardly quit a club that no longer exists. I find it ironic that it will also scupper the plans of May and Co,that a right wing...

    Just as Trump was starting to make some sense,even if his ideas appear unworkable then he reverts to Trump and throwing mud at Obama accusing him of a Watergate style plot. Trump should stay away from Twitter,it's not a presidential way of communicating. Looks like the Mail is trying to link...

    Did you vote for Brexit? ...there is a tendency for Brexiters to have closed ears to any anti Brexit discussions and get quite emotional about it. We are told that we must be democratic,worringly also by our government, and we all have to accept the vote but democracy goes both ways I don't see...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Such is the possible bluffing going on,that I wonder whether May is saying that we are leaving the single market and the customs union and suggesting that she is working towards no deal to unsettle the EU into a position that we are like a suicide bomber.....if the UK is to die then we will take...

    OG is entitled to his opinion,why does it cause you such concern? Article 50 will be signed,notice how May is desperate to sign it as early as possible just in case some event prior to March 31 makes people start to think twice. I buy from 130 companies in China and sell to every EU country,I am...

    The referendum was only advisory and the 2015 Tory mandate was to stay in the single market,Cameron repeated that 'we say yes to the single market'....but May has conveniently forgotten her own parties manifesto. KudosDave

    Which e-bike that accelerates fast

    Wow....that is not a bit illegal....that is 'lock up and throw away the key' illegal,I suppose you might as well be hung for a sheep than a lamb. The one I rode in Shanghai was 800 watts,it was ok you just had to be patient in getting up to speed,but at 10mph plus it was rapid transport as long...

    Which e-bike that accelerates fast

    Direct drive motors,even with lots of illegal power,do not accelerate well. Most of the cheapies sold in China are direct drive,very cheap to produce,but note how the Chinese,even lightweight riders,pedal like mad to get them going. But once they get up to speed,say 10 mph,they will continue to...

    People are discussing what we can sell the chinese post a free trade deal,we could make them into drug addicts.....then our container ships could drop into Afghanistan pick up some cocaine and heroin,then sail onto Guangzhou (the old Canton)to swop for i-pads and i-phones.
