It would be far more interesting, and probably revealing, if more contemporary figures could be provided for comparison.

Well if you declare you are Bisexual, surely that conforms with the Equal Ops criteria As for the "white, middle aged men " demographic, probably the most boring, insular, unwilling to change you can encounter.

True, mind you, for the enthusiasts, he also missed out the narrow gauge at Fairbourne....I've been on the dunes at Borth, and, to be fair, the conservation efforts are interesting. Elsewhere, an older programme recently showed another contrived Portillo moment in America. Cue him at USN Air...

Would it be reasonable to say, that, you've never read the RTA in your life....or, that you feel you have the advanced driving skills / training to drive at excessively high speeds or have an exemption from the RTA ? I understand the attraction of speed, Vne in a glider in ground effect for...

No ! You simply wait until a gap appears, signal, and move into lane 1 .

Did you actually read what he wrote ?...such as driving with his hand on the horn as he undertakes, or not wishing to interact with drivers in lane 3...if you can't comply with basic overtaking techniques, and behave the way he claims, then you aren't a competent driver. And how can he cause a...

As you have kindly exemplified with your own arrogant and incompetent "driving ". Would you care to go one step further please and post the marque / registration of your vehicle in order that other road users are aware of your "ability " should they have the misfortune to encounter you.

Which, lets be honest, takes very little effort. Were the railways actually be as good as they should be, there would be no need for programmes like this. The emphasis on fares was clearly evident, but, the air quality segment was informative given it's not usually an aspect that gets covered...

It isn't a question of "displaying superiority ", one of clarification given the significant difference between the types of fasteners and hence your misleading statement. And yes, I know the Americans use mechanic when referring to the " A & P" licence, but, this is the UK, not America. "...

That's a very sensible post. It has happened in the past, several times, but, as Boeing is the current media "flavour of the month" any event, however tenuous, can be "attributed " to Boeing. Not an expert, and would never claim to be, but, I do have a career in aviation and have unlatched /...

You have to be joking ! Portillo is as obnoxious now as he always has been / will be. His programmes invariably show as much free loading as he can get, plus, he always stays in the most upmarket accom he can find, not forgetting the smirk when he brandishes his cab ride pass. For him, the...

A few years ago I had such a day on the ELR, which, in the main, was very enjoyable and, in part, wetted my interest to become a volunteer. However, shortly after arriving at another line, the then "top guard" made it very clear when he asked, "if you're not a rail enthusiast, what do you...

Does it really? How, given presumably your lack of both knowledge and experience, do you come to this conclusion...other than to try and "impress" contributors. I doubt if you could even locate the component on the aircraft, let alone identify the structural designation or material. Correct...

To paraphrase that immortal headline " Roadworks on M25 London cut off " As National Highways (assumes no new rebranding name has taken place) is involved, all timings should be treated as wishful thinking unless, by some unprecedented miracle, they are correct.

Apart from the dubious nature and subsequent events surrounding the fire, to be honest, I couldn't understand all the emotional hugging / tears / flowers / teddy bears etc.

I am reliably informed, that, they were handing out free string bags ! That was a nice Co-op, nice staff, and, had the advantage of the ATM being inside, very reassuring for ladies and elderly customers. However, I was amused at the sight of the, short lived, dry cleaning machines adjacent to...

The occupations are, to a certain extent, irrelevant. Subscribing to the ideologies however is far more relevant....and concerning

Thank you. Being an almost normal, I would never have thought of, and exercising, that option. I've never been a "loyal" Tesco customer, Tesco being very adept at sell promoting themselves and convincing the gullible they only have the customers interests at heart. Neither do I have brand...

Local Tesco. No diesel for over a week now, apparently, it's due to " the pumps"....so every filling point pump is now u/s is it?.... how convenient !....when they do malfunction, they usually get fixed rapidly. Inside the store...shelves now being routinely re-stocked during the day, rather...

I think traditional Tory voters are only too well aware the current version is "Tory" in name only and will be as glad to see the back of them as the rest of us. As for Reform, I look forward to a candidate knocking on the door, thereafter "discussing" the lineage N.F / BNP (plus UKIP, the...
