I think for a 'quick cost of living win with the railway' the government should create and distribute a 'Rail Voucher' (like a book token or gift voucher as used extensively in retail). Potentially each adult/child UK resident would be given a single voucher, time limited to say 3-6 months, for...

Each satellite has a fixed amount of bandwidth, so if more users are connected simultaneously, then there is less bandwidth per user. To resolve this they would need to add extra capacity, which means another launch.

I managed to get a couple of pictures of the platform from the industrial estate side, looking towards Exeter. One thing I'd like to know is how the station will be reached on foot, will a new path be laid from the main road, or are they expecting people to walk through the estate?

Some of the original South Eastern Railway platforms had that layout, with the platforms also not opposite each other, but staggered, with a barrow crossing in between the ends sort of like this; (Hopefully the formatting sticks after posting) Still, can't see this ever being approved for a...

I believe that these posts by the dear leader have not actually been written by him at for some time. His previous posts were conspicuous for being short and snappy rants riddled with spelling and grammar errors. Where as these are long tedious rants with fewer errors (apart from huge errors of...

I'd just worry about my phone dying at the crucial moment. GPS is already quite draining on the battery, so what happens if you get off and find out the battery is flat? I avoid using my phone for airline tickets for the same reason.

Is the platform going to be north or south of the road bridge? The car park is mentioned to the south, but I can't see any details for the platform itself.

Considering the utter geopolitical disaster Trump is proving to be, worse even than the pessimists thought, this almost seems trivial. But, does anyone think that US domestic rail will survive his presidency? Given Musk's personal hatred of public transport and his reckless hands on the levers...

It's worth remembering that many of Trumps 'allies' including the Republican House and Senate leaders, and his own vice president have previously publicly trashed him for both his character and actions.

Ah great, thanks. 1720542291 Thanks for clarifying, was a bit nervous about this as couldn't work out what was going on. The way google presents the information was not that clear, especially to a non native speaker :)

I see it only when doing a google search. Admittedly, the section warning is written in German, and I am trying to translate it... Let me see if I can link to it...

I'm travelling between Munich and Ried Im Innkreis in Austria in a few days by rail, on Thursday 11th July. I already have the tickets booked but when looking up the route there appears to be a warning about what believe is the equivalent of a rail replacement service (bus?) for the last leg...

It might be a regional thing. When I was young and voting in SW London we had actual booths with a small curtain behind you could pull across, but here in Oxfordshire it's just small 4 way tables with little dividers. As it wasn't busy anyway I had no worries there, but I imagine it could be a...

Even wealthy and secure right wingers might not be so keen when the bill comes in for care for elderly care to the tune of £20 - £30k per year because there is no public provision available.

Probably depends how much of a competition there is locally. Where I am there is a large number of LibDem signs on poles in peoples gardens, plus posters in windows, much more than ever before, as its now regarded as a key marginal. The Tories who used to dominate here have only managed a...

I was wrong, I did get another LD leaflet this morning! Leaving nothing to chance. :)

No, well not from my lot anyway ;) Of course, something may turn up in the morning....

But then again they have the triple lock pension... 1720023686 Well, my final leaflet tally is in. Tory 2. Green 2. Reform 1. Labour 0. Lib Dem, around 1000, but thats because I've been out delivering them. :D However, there were at least 6 distinct leaflets, and 2 individually addressed letters...

They sound no different to ukip/reform or any other right wing populist nonsense. Anti science, anti equality, anti environment, anti vax, anti 5g, anti cycle paths, anti trans. But with a token bit of leftism (no NHS privitisation) Nothing about immigration, asylum or Europe, which seems a...

That could come back to bite them anyway, if Trump can run for a third term, then so can Obama, and Obama would beat him hands down.
