I remember once on an American site, reading a line or two on this subject. The guy said: 'Once people get the idea that they can vote themselves free money, it is very hard to get them to stop.' Of course, the 'free money' is money taken under duress from other people who someone decides...

Check this graph out comparing the uk's working age inactivity rate with other countries. Why the UK?

A big issue in the Uk since covid has been a mass exodus from work in the 50 to 65 year old population. Off the top of my head, it is several million.

The so called 'rich' already pay the lion's share of taxes. Ten percent of the population already pay 60% of personal tax. The city pays a vast part of corporation tax. The problem is that too many people are extracting vast amounts of benefit money, and that fraud is rampant. The worst...

That graph shows that the current granting of family visas is double the level it was in the pre 2018 period.

The revolution you refer to, is going to hit a very different sector of the workforce. My partner is a GP. I was talking to a couple of her colleagues at a 'do' last weekend and one of them was saying how big an impact AI, will soon have in diagnostics and other allied medical areas. AI is...

In other news: Last night, it was announced that Biden was giving condideration to withdrawing from the Presidential race. This morning, he seems to have forgotten about that.

Further points relating to post above: One of the big mental blocks for many politicians is that they are devoted to the idea of economic growth. This is just the total amount of money earned and spent inside the country. It has nothing to do with how well off anybody is, or how happy, or how...

I might have missed it, but I don't think you have addressed saneagle's point about the likely weight difference between you and your wife. Also, the range difference might be part due to the fact that your KT set to limit consumption to 18 amps will more rapidly drain your battery if you used...

Just wondering how long that butchery is going to last and also wondering, if it is such a good idea, why the people who designed and built the motor bothered to make the original one anyway - and why the heck they put in heat sensors and the rest that he hacked out of it..... Not really, I...

They WILL get their just deserts. They trashed a massive majority fooling around, divided, squabbling among themselves, elected an idiot as leader who lasted six weeks, and failed to deliver on illegal migrants. On top of that, rather than stop the haemorrhaging of people out of the workforce in...

Don't worry - Tony Blair is guided by God. What can go wrong with that? Relax.

Programming - Might be worth a watch.

I meant lucky that the wires were not related to canbus. Now you have a simpler solution available.

Well, I wish you well with that, of course. I have no idea how old you are, which can be a factor in the stats, and you are doing many of the things that will help make things go the right way. I have always sworn by regular aerobic exercise, tried not to eat too much, and to keep my weight...

Are you suggesting that I am a wobbly fatso? How very dare you!

Stroke of luck there then. That's the kind of story I like to read about.

Not sure I could fit that to my 36v BSb01. It lists itself as 36v when I load up the settings via the serial cable. Would hate to fry the controller.

The ultimate biking horror - that is. The thought of my Chicken Bhuna getting splattered like that is almost traumatising. We are in PTSD territory there.

Interesting. My throttle ONLY works as a walk assist. It is far too feeble. I of course could put it back to stock settings which I have a record of, but then it applies about 600 watts if the battery is full and will go as fast as it can go on that sort of hot diet and is of course completely...
