@losttheplot thanks, that's interesting from the point of view that if it turns out to be true then vaccines will not work either, in which case the medical arguments in favour of immunity passports, whatever they are, will not stack up. Big pharma will not be happy with that outcome. That said...

Let me start by stating that I am in no way undermining the seriousness of Covid-19 on the vulnerable in society but I cannot figure out why or how the proposed immunity passports are going to help control the disease, especially given the comparatively small number of people that go on to...

With all the money printing and other goings-on lately I have been having a lot of déjà vu moments and think the government dipping into your pensions is probably the least of your worries. The issue many people are not discussing here and elsewhere is the effect of inflation caused by...

I hadn't used Ebay in years and it just so happens I ordered a small part last week and was offered a £5 voucher off the purchase which I redeemed. After seeing your post Brendan I thought I may have become an inadvertent victim! I've just checked the transaction and it appears to be a genuine...

I am importing this Edge Tester from the US. The kit is used to test and grade the sharpness of cutting edges e.g. knives I am not at all familiar with TARIC codes but would like to determine which code will be applied in determining the import duty % so I can get a rough idea of landed cost...

I have concrete around parts of my home and have been researching options for filling the expansion joints which are now exposed. The joints are approx 25mm wide and previously had wooden inserts covered by a thin screed of concrete. The joints need to be repacked so would appreciate feedback...
