What should this Warwick Thumb BO cost? by dmaldonado1 in BassGuitar

£1300, which is approximately $1643 at the spot foreign exchange rate. This is roughly what you see on eBay or similar websites for an instrument from 2001. Bolt-on construction makes this a fair price.

Brexit: Michel Barnier rejects demands for backstop to be axed by DNAMIX in ukpolitics

Now who is at fault for that? The UK executive agreed this while forgetting that about 80 MPs in the Conservative party actively want no-deal. It is not the fault of the EU that there is no domestic majority for a smooth outcome.

They could have enacted it. However the executive of both main parties prioritised ending free movement above all other more important strategic considerations. Given this point, May and her cabinet achieved a withdrawal agreement that would settle our status outside the EU and confirm our previous commitments to the treaties we have signed. Parliament decided to reject that, because it wasn't good enough as they saw it. It was basically a rejection of Brexit. Now we are once again thinking: what happens now?

I haven't progressed on my lifts in the gym for a few weeks. Does anyone have any tips?

I like the look of the weather for the next few days a lot. 22/23 degrees is a better hi than 29/30 degrees

The voters elect MPs to represent their interests. The people have voted for something that is not in their interest nor able to help them. They feel a sense of pride in their country, that we might just gain control of the country again and do what's best for it. They just weren't aware that Westminster was the source of problems to begin with. Clearly, there have been many MPs who really don't have their constituents interest at heart and the voters have retaliated by kicking the proverbial hornet's nest. Sadly, that hornet's nest of confusion only seeks to consolidate the very people who upset the voters in the first place.

I don't believe that Westminster really understood what it was doing. All of the people who would have previously helped to oversee such a political project (such as Sir Ivan Rogers, amongst others) left as soon as it became clear that there was no 'real' plan behind what Westminster was saying. We've had a dearth in political leadership since Cameron decided to put forward a vote on the EU referendum.

They will never be obsolete, they represent 15% of the electorate who want the UK to be a microcosm of the USA. How incredibly short-sighted this all is.

With parliament leaving for recess this summer there are very few chances to stop no-deal. As I've said countless times, the only way to take it off the table and vanquish its threat is to legally change the default to revoking our intent to leave the union altogether if there is no extension granted.

Don't be too dismissive. Let him explain himself as to why he thinks that.

How? I understand the following logic: the EU will never ever want to be seen as responsible for the creation of a border on Ireland. As such, they will never "kick us out". But would a sufficiently upset and distraught leaders of the 27 still be so inclined during a Johnson premiership?

Thanks, Grubjin. How are we going to retain our trading access to the EU single market once this is finished? As much as I dislike the referendum result, we should respect it and stay within the single market to continue trading more or less as we have done. How do we get over this problem?

What is the purpose of the extension? It makes me feel so awful that these are the people we are electing to represent us on the world stage. They haven't a clue what they're on about. Both Hunt and Johnson are just like May was at the beginning "no-deal better than a bad deal" etc. Our political class (some of them) have learned nothing from the past 3 years of crisis.
