    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Wasn't Blair the guy who promised 2 referendums and changed his mind. A man not to be trusted

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Oldtom I don't think anyone would reasonably complain if it was felt the aid was genuinely helping people who are not so fortunate as us, but it seems to me that a whole industry has grown up around it and some people are getting very rich from it

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    So basically the money we borrow to send to these poor countries does nothing for the people it's supposed to help. Surely a better way could be found. Can we afford this money when under such pressure in this country??

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    We will be survive. We have had high inflation in the EU club. I just managed to watch the Brexit programmed with Katya Adler and to me it looks like the EU is in a very precarious position

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I agree that I have not seen the programme, but all reports from both sides are to be taken with a large pinch of salt. There have been some positive outcomes from devaluation, but of course the remain camp will choose to overlook or dismiss them as being short term only and sooner or later...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Slightly off topic, but I remember many years ago on Tomorrow's World they were showing an engine the size of a box of cornflakes which was supposedly very cheap efficient and easy to replace.

    Refurbish Freego Eagle

    Refurbish Freego Eagle

    Thanks d8veh. Some good pointers there, although not sure about the shunt. Is there likely to be much weight difference and power output in the motor I mentioned. Also would a different controller ie sinewave make much difference?? thanks gray

    Refurbish Freego Eagle

    Does anyone know where to get the single sprung fork. I have looked all over and can't find one. Maybe using wrong name. There is one on the Juicybike roller
