Er, yes it is a crime. You told us that in your last sentence.


It may not be in many people's eyes dangerous, including IAM (as long as you're wearing a Sam Brown), Police Roadcraft etc and if seen you may not get stopped, but it's still against the law and by doing so you are liable to prosecution.

I totally disagree you should stand around for a while and take a look :'(

Effective policing of the speed limit should do it I'd have thought.

    • I'd also like to highly recommend Niko. He just replaced the extraction fan in our bathroom, having previously installed a new tap for us. Fast, professional and a really great guy. 
    • Agree with this. He's stood down from his role in Cabinet having left the Party, but he was elected as a representative of all the constituents in his ward and logic suggests that he should continue to represent them as a councillor for his remaining 3 months. He might wish to stand again, as a Green, in that ward (if he's chosen) and hope that personal loyalty to him might transfer, but that's now the call of his (new) party and him. He will have to balance that with a view about how many of his Labour supporters will feel sufficiently betrayed to continue to support Labour. I suspect, I may be wrong, that he will not have a cabinet position open to him after May (unless the Greens sweep in locally) so presumably he will have to consider his next career move, and whether that's back to full-time primary teaching.
