  1. It's the unaddressed category I was referring to. Thanks to both of you.
  2. Every Tuesday the postman posts junk mail through my postbox. I'm not happy. I realise the companies pay Royal Mail for this service but it only goes straight into my recycling. Is there any way to unsubscribe from this unsolicited rubbish?
  3. Ah, I see intexasatthemoment has also posted details of a different amendment relating to clause 4

    I wonder if this is because he's had a smack on the hand from the EU ECB warns banks against Brexit 'empty shells' European regulators have warned banks working on post-Brexit plans that they will "need to have substance locally" to serve European clients. The European Central Bank said some of the proposals it has reviewed are inadequate and risk creating "empty shells". http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-42002200 Goes to show, you can't kid a kidder

If 27 EU Parliaments (and the relevant regional Parliaments) vote unanimously to approve the deal and it then comes before the UK Parliament who decide it's not good enough what obligation is there for the EU to renegotiate? You could find Parliament causes a no-deal result if it's not careful

  11. Ermmm ... I think there's more to come out on Carl Sargeant Loz
  12. Agree with your point on peccadilloes JoeLeg. I'll wait to see if many of the alleged transgressions are proved. My essential point is we can't have trial by twitter - a sort of virtual mob. Some of the allegations may be well-founded and the people in question punished appropriately. I'm not sure in these cases people should be stripped of awards gained during their careers. It's not the same as, say, stripping athletes of medals won unfairly by drug enhanced cheating and re-writing sporting records accordingly.
  13. Am I right in thinking the film hasn't been released? If so hardly rewriting history on this point. More worrying to me is the rewriting of classic books (e.g. Noddy) to comply with modern norms rather than viewing them in historical context. Anyway back on topic I think we need to keep a sense of perspective here. E.g., there's no need to strip Spacey of his many awards justly earned because of his sexual peccadilloes.
  14. Haven't seem any teaser ads or YouTube leaks for the iPhone eleven/11/XI yet
  15. After you've dried your hands on one of his efficient machines why doesn't the machine feed you a hygienic tissue that you can use to open the filthy, pathogenic door handle? Otherwise you've spent two or three minutes on an arm workout similar to washing clothes on an old-fashioned washboard all for nought. Defeats the object. (Idea Copyright Keano 2017)

    One of the reasons a 'no deal' is unlikely in my view is that it would be so disastrous to the Republic of Ireland's economy given their trade with Britain that they might have to consider pulling out of the EU themselves. To compensate the RoI for the damage to its trade with Britain the EU would need to divert massive resources to the country and current proposals for banking and fiscal union and ending Ireland's generous Corporation Tax rates would be hampered. We'll get a deal but whether it's a good deal or not remains to be seen.

They'll be back, cap in hand. We ought to levy a punitive relocation corporate tax rate. Desert Britain now, beg to come back.
  19. Unfortunately it was from an official body. Customs had opened the package and there was an invoice receipt inside.
  20. Good point about customs/import duty IlonaM. I ordered a copy of a document from the US recently. Cost me US $80 including mailing costs. The post office put a note through my door that customs duty was payable. I had to pay another ?16.90 at Silvester Road to collect it because it came from outside the EU for what was effectively an A3 photocopy.

    "...And you have to remember that any agreement is subject not only to our own parliament, but also the 27 members of the EU parliament agreeing too..." It's worse than that Blah Blah, regional governments are involved as well (e.g. Belgium). I think at least 34 bodies have to give their half-arsed approval. That said, I accept it won't be a breeze. However, there's no need for protracted 7-odd years bureaucratic agreements. Forget Junket's air-taxis wheeze. Lock the buggers in a room in a Papal conclave-style negotiation where they don't come out until they've reached agreement and I think you'll find we'll have a deal in a few weeks.
