We're not miles apart, I'd go as far as to say that I'm a lot less comfortable defending EU democracy than you are the UKs. My main point is that we're not a particularly democratic country.
However, I will say that the European Commision in my view is not too dissimilar to our own cabinet...
So, you agree with me re The Queen and the House of Lords.
You do not need to be an elected MP to be a member of the cabinet. The one that springs to mind is Andrew Adonis in Blair's cabinet. There have been plenty of others.
The Prime Minister we also agree.
Special advisors, you are...
I'll say you can.
Unelected head of state
Unelectected 2nd chamber
Unelected cabinet
Unelected Prime Minister often. Dont forget when Theresa May stood down, Johnson was elected Prime Minster by less than 200 000 Tory party members, including 16 & 17 year olds. That's 200 000 in a country of 66...
Don't think that's relevent Drew, 4x6mm conductors will have a total factor that needs to be less than the conduit factor. I'll have a look when I get to my van.
The on site guide has tables for this, factors for the conduit for certain lengths and size and factors for the cable. Have a quick look, sounds okay though.
There has been over 100 arrests with more to come, seems strange to pin the assertion of the riot being organized by antifa and BLM to one man with very tenuous links to BLM. This Washington Post article gives a broader view...
Inasmuch as the US was already polarized before 2016, he would not have got anywhere near power in a more balanced fair society.
It was the loss of the blue collar jobs and the inequality, with the rich getting richer by the day and the poor, or ordinary working class struggling more and more...
How on earth were these 'far left snowflakes'? Whatever one of them is.
These were Trump supporters, that in itself does not make him responsible, but you need to face up to facts Tell.
You need to show some proof for these assertions DW, or a link or two. I'm keeping an open mind on this but in all honesty everything I've seen shows stupid right wing mainly Qanon idiots at the certre. I saw the original live streams and every one that had been identified on social media since...
Erasmus was never really threatened Dave, in fact Johnson said himself that we would not come out of Erasmus, he lied.
It’s the same as all the Brexit 'benefits’ not real. Yes of course students can still study in European universities, but it’s now not a right and requires visas and other hoops...
Blimey Alan, you've made some claims there. Whilst I agree with a lot of what you say, I'm not sure about the power cuts, inflation and Dagenham dustbin claims. I also don't think we will be going back into the EU, although I'm sure we will be applying to rejoin the single market relatively soon...
Darkwood, as usual you make an interesting, but far too long a post to be able to respond to in a way that would be succinct and easy to read without boring people senseless.
So I’ll just respond to one of your points, but by all means I’m happy to respond to others if you want, also I do not...
There's no need for a trade war Buzz. What's happening is just normal, it happens all over the world at borders where there is no free trade deal or similar. It was all explained during the referendum campaign, you rember project fear?
I'd be interested to know how they're being ruthless Pete, from what I can see they're just implementing the rules and regs that we agreed to in the brexit deal.
Most of the problems are caused on this side of the border by our own border control.
