    The UK Politics & Brexit Thread

    The proposed smoking law is clearly a back door method to introduce ID cards. How else will someone be able to prove that they are say 27, and not 26? I've got nothing against ID cards (although not the all-purpose tracker proposed by Blair), but why not just introduce them without all the pretense?

    Night driving glasses?

    I went to the optician last week, and mentioned that I was being affected more by glare when driving at night. She looked deep into my eyes, said 'cataracts', and referred me to the opthalmology department at the hospital.

    Anyone know this dealer in Rainham?

    Remember the OP is not buying for himself, but helping a female friend with the purchase. I'd be equally cautious in that situation.

    Wife got a brand new car yesterday, hit by flying wheelie bin today ......

    From my experience, the union would negotiate, and he'd be put on internal yard work for about 3 months.

    No-one's mentioned the basic requirements - heated seats, heated steering wheel, heated windscreen, and climate control. you're going to be stuck behind all the other numpties who can't drive on snow, so you may as well be comfortable and warm.
