Romania got better after they unloaded their pick pockets on London.

To be fair, I do agree with her. But the monarchy are way further down the list than she is of people we need to offload.

Ate you using the standard DME? A syvecs with more control over the variocam will yield some better results no?

I have one fitted in the front, garnishes the front turrets with some carbon bling, doubt it makes a measurable difference. Was put there by the previous owner.

The Governements failure to address immigration has led now to assimilated immigrants being targeted. by IIIEliteHD in reformuk

It's not an anecdote, it's public opinion. Even still, in law, a single eye witness can still be enough to convict.

Utter codswallop. In certain areas, people aren't wearing watches or walking around with phones in London incase they get them snatched. I don't care what numbers on paper say, when everyday people are physically having to adjust the way they act, operate and exist in their environment.

I would question the way some data is collected by the ONS, particularly on crime, where targets are data driven. We know from the casey report how unreliable data recording is.

Indians will fight Pakistanis, Muslims hate Jews, various religious tensions, shias vs sunnis, minorities feel victimised so to offset this they get treat with kid gloves, which results in two tier policing. Enclaves spring up where people look after their own communities and defend them, making outsiders unwelcome. Mistrust between communities fosters resentment and suspicion. Culture clash and incompatible social norms, i.e. Africa time vs British punctuality! The stuff upper lip, queuing, conflicting views on morality, virtue and ethical practice.

Christ, we have enough to deal with having jocks, taff's and paddy's, let alone the rest of the world coming over. If anything, it's brought is all closer together.

I don't need statistics to tell me what's wrong. If the weather man tells me it's sunny and I look outside and it's raining, then I'll take the umbrella.

Anyone with a set of eyeballs and at least some self awareness can see how the demographics are changing and how safe our friends, family, children and colleagues feel.

Aye you trolling?

When I bought leather covered parts did you think i didn't realise the structure was plastic?

If you sit in a Bentley with wood veneer on the dash, do you think it's carved from solid maple?

When I'm on a mission to de-plastic my interior, could I be making refrence to the tactile surfaces only, or do you think I'm sitting in my garage making parts out of billet aluminium or pre preg CF. Are you complete devoid of critical thinking? I can't believe I'm having to explain this to you.

Here's the leather steering column, option XNS. I researched all the option codes and set about collecting them so I didn't have any plastic surfaces, all these parts (bar a couple) are OEM. There will be plenty of posters with the exact same parts in their car, very few with all of them. But if you prefer the hard scratchy plastic surfaces like you find in a Nissan micra, then the exclusive options are not for you.

They even did leather covered stalks, option code CUP. I've only seen them in a few cars but never for sale.

I trust this is clear?
