  1. I had to ask one nurse if she was actually qualified when she was asking biological men if they could be pregnant, it started an interesting discussion about how ineffective her degree was and the amount of money wasted on education - plus the risk to patients. Imagine going in to a hospital to eventually be treated by lazy inefficient staff that do not even know biological men and women have different parts. Imagine the mistakes they are going to make in treatment and the amount of time that people with illnesses or fetishes are going to waste on going through a whole charade of being treated as something they are not as they think it validates their efforts. The whole situation is a mess. You call yourself what you want, present yourself how you want, but do not cross the line of forcing me to accept your views or opinions and attempt to use a law to normalise a lot of things most people just do not accept and which undermines medical treatment. I know what James Whale means, the whole thing is stupid now, just so a minority that want attention can get it. Companies have been destroyed by this nonsense, GovUK is particularly silly over it, they will give in to anyone because people introducing policies crave examples and to justofy their mickey mouse jobs. No wonder Little Britain was banned, it showed how things were getting silly and how things would all change for us.

  2. This behaviour goes on as people in the community don't speak out against criminals they know of. People that know who committed offences and killed this young girl should speak out, Why do people protecting criminals suddenly become selective as to who they will inform on? That makes them as bad. Do the right thing, give the name(s).

  3. Not unless she closes those curtains!
    52
  4. All criminals are the same, what they do can't be excused. They are all scum that affect the life of others. Why protect them unless you are a criminal with common interests and no respect for anyone else.

  5. There must either be reporting restrictions, in which case it has nothing to do with the police not naming him - or he is now an informant being protected as a way out and easy way to stay in the UK. There is no other option or reason. The only other people that go through a parallel justice system are police officers, they have reporting restrictions on cases involving them all the time and many are dealt with and not even reported in the press because it undermines public confidence in the failed recruitment policies and existing management - both seriously ineffective.

  6. Most lawyers are the same, it's not just limited to immigration matters!

  7. The same idiots responsible for 20mph zones. Oh don't hurt us as we wander without any thought for our own safety in to the road...

  8. It wants to make them invisible to people that do not pay them for the information from tracking techniques... It's charging to unblock tracking information for third parties, nothing else.

  9. 22 people in my offices have gone off after testing positive for covid on PCR tests after LFTs showed negative. This is within two weeks. All had two vaccinations. Why? Do they have it or are test results being fiddled, or don't vaccinations work?

  10. He wasn't aware of air-gap techniques used over 10yrs ago to communicate with any device via WiFi or Bluetooth. The device did not need to be connected to the Internet as whatever it was near could report the proximity. If you removed all RF devices and never plugged it in, you might find that people marked as targets would have to use something like USB storage to view files. Depending on the sites they were obtained from depends what was in them and what they did. Your off the shelf firewall will not help. The only decent firewall for stopping NSA and GCHQ was by Kaspersky, but they were also spying on you!

  11. One thing that was popular int eh 1980s was "PIRATE TV". I bought a TV transmitter known as a "Video Sender" in the late 80s to transmit the output from a VCR around the house to TVs. I still have it to this day in a box and it still works! People would use them and then leave them on broadcasting films. You had to know about them or find them by chance when tuning around. There was someone local to me that did this at weekends and must have been using a computer generated test card. It was one film after another, no contact details. The output was only around 10-20mW on mine, so I suspect people were using amateur equipment for a bit of fun to amplify them. I never used mine this way as connecting it to a TV aerial wouldn't have got far, only at the back of all the other TV aerials ! In those days I knew nothing about RF, so nothing about UHF aerial designs and the Internet wasn't a thing then. It still does CH21-68 analogue with a video in and audio in plug. If I could have turned the aerial around to face everyone elses I might have tried it out. It was definitely possible to interfere with TV for a few houses nearby using the small telescopic aerial.

  12.  @SagaciousFrank  Only because the pittance being paid is quite good for where they send the money back home. It is also easier to hire and fire through an agency. It is nothing to do with what work they are willing to do. If companies employ lazy and stupid people that don't want to do the work, why don't they get shut of them.

  13. Next they will be holding meetings with self-appointed community leaders to ask if they're allowed to speak to him as this is what goes on elsewhere.
    19
  14. Not another one! That is becoming as popular as people that seem to fall out of windows.
    18
  15.  @englishgoddess8238  If you analyse the expressions and language, it's obvious who the police are trying to get evidence on. He fell in to the trap of too many interviews and saying too much. They are playing a clever game with him.

  16. Privacy and Anonymity are completely different. Tor was compromised in 2013, users can be identified by rogue nodes and traffic staining techniques. That is why GCHQ runs a lot of Tor Nodes. The Tor Browser Bundle was altered, possibly with the agreement of the developers to assist Law Enforcement with Operation Onymous in 2014. All the default security settings were changed to the lowest level and scripts were turned on. The script feature was also left operating despite the setting being set to off/blocked in later releases - to assist further with police investigations. The way it worked was that sites run a script when a user connected and the Tor Browser Bundle firefox sent replies outside Tor, back to Law Enforcement. Certain sites were given ID numbers and once the user connected, firefox run the script and identified the real IP address of the person. Tor Project would never answer questions over this. They also presented for download a version in November and December 2013 that had a "profiler trojan" built in, but only identifiable by Kaspersky antivirus at the time, because that company would not assist with exposing users. Some sites had pictures and videos that were modified, so they would cause a video player or picture viewer program to call for extra resources or a CODEC. Unless you blocked this or set VLC, for example, to connect out on a random IP and Port, you would be connected to Law Enforcement and they tracked you. Other files were just remote access trojans and law enforcement just sat watching what users did. VPNs are dangerous. YouTube affiliates only advertise them as they earn up to 40% of each referral. Most are only Proxy Servers, not VPNs. They operate on rented equipment in datacnters like M247 Ltd - who are forced to hand over all data in the UK at the request of police with a Production Order. The VPN collects, inspects, manipulates and redirects your data and sifts through to see if there is anything they can add to a user profile. Some VPNs want email addresses, phone numbers, WifI info, contact lists, PRECISE LOCATION and also your credit card details as your verified profile is sold for more. Even if the VPN doesn't collect all your data, the Host Company can and does sell it to whoever wants it A VPN only hides the IP, technology has moved on in the past 10years, now it is possible to trace anyone anywhere. Security Services can locate a person using facial recognition, using input from doorbells, CCTV, phones, ANPR etc. They can also tell who is with you if you are talking near a phone or alexa, or some TVs.

  17. I know people working in security departments at banks that have stopped large transactions and phoned people. Most refuse to listen as the scammer is always right. One person I heard about lost £50K as the call handler was pleading with the person not to transfer money and saying that it was a con. He was repeatedly warned that if he did go ahead, the bank had advised him not to, explained he was giving his money away and was speaking to criminals, so would not be able to get it back and the bank would not be paying him for his own losses. He was advised the call was being recorded and asked him to confirm everything again. As a last resort, they said it would take until the next day to release the money, to get him to think about it. He argued and demanded they release his money, so they did and he lost the lot. It ended up in the Philippines and "vanished". That is a bank that has the best fraud detection centre around, very pro-active.

  18. Alex Belend will hopefully leave people alone now. Police are taking action against him after the way he spoke about them. He got exactly what he deserved. More concerning is the thick stupid people that were scammed out of their money to pay for possessions, holidays etc. I still can't understand why so many allowed themselves to be scammed. He promoted a common interest and purpose and lied about wanting money to sue the BBC. Hopefully you have all had counselling and got a refund.

  19. Far less CO2 as well, but because of the extra economy, people bought less diesel and companies put pressure on the UK Government to keep their sales as high as they demanded - or they just made threats not to pay their tax or to move from the UK and limit our supply. When those companies move in to investing in more electric cars and infrastructure, the same will happen again. You look how much it costs to charge a car at a public charger, 15 times that of at home, and you pay 20% VAT compared to 5% VAT at home. Electric cars are a scam. Diesel was best and always will be.
    15
  20. I don't use DABradio as the quality of the audio, even in the car, is rubbish. It is like listening to AM mono radio compared to FM stereo. When i first heard tests on DAB in the 2000s the audio was over 200Kbps, now its mono at as low as 32Kbps.
    13
  21. The same type of people were still about.

  22. 5:04, do not have criminals or ex-criminals involved in any youth projects. Many have run out of adults to try and impress and turn to those younger than themselves, it sends out the wrong message to children who soon start to hero-worship them. There is no place in civilised society for dishonest people to want to become involved with groups allowing them access to under 16s. There are plenty of other jobs they can get. We need to look at their real motivation.
    12
  23. I would agree that is needs a mental health assessment as he is not fit to be working doing that sort of thing for pleasure. Imagine how he is with people...
    12
  24. The RSPCA needs to prosecute, they now have all the evidence they need to have the officer charged and to appear before the Magistrates Court. A number of offences have been committed and if they turn a blind eye or try and excuse it, that will mean their donations will dry up and they will lose all credibility. I doubt they want that happening.

  25. In 1994 there was an attack on a radio communications tower in Delamere Forest in error. The tap was known about, but not exactly where it was located, someone tried to knock the tower down! I only know because of a building survey as an emergency to make sure cracks and damage would not cause too much of a problem. The area had a no-fly zone which was handy. As for vans and other vehicles used by intelligence services, they have a whole fleet of vans and uniforms from every company going. Facilities Management companies are a favourite as people get in to sites and are often left alone to do their "work". There is a training site in Ellesmere Port on the industrial estate if any of the auditor people want to go along! See how long you last. Residents were not told to keep quiet and never provided with double glazing or anything else, that is rubbish. A lot of the computer equipment and people operating it was in the houses in the road next to it, not the bungalows.

  26. One of his staff, Claire from Wallasey, Merseyside, was in the papers stating she did not want the boats in the docks near her home in Wallasey. Is the charity funded by Serco? There was a massive argument between Peel Holdings and the Council as they said it would harm the image of the area and devalue their developments. The economic migrants are only coming here because they were promised money and homes by a company that has amazing contracts to supply hotel rooms and caterers! No wonder they are not allowed to speak to the press and explain what they all mean by saying "we have not got what we were promised". We need a change in the Law, if you are not cleared to enter the country you do not get in.
    11
  27. I got told my amateur radio aerials were causing my old neighbours to be really ill. There was nothing on the other end of the coax as I had been decorating for months.
    11
  28. Almost as bad as that other muppet that lied about his picnic and a drive around to "test his eye sight". I always wondered how he was able to blackmail boris.
    10
  29. You sound desperate!
    10
  30. It's only when patients are very quiet you have to be concerned more. At the scene of accidents, the ones making most noise are checked quickly and left in favour of treating those not moving and not saying much.
    10
  31. We have to wonder why a woman would knowingly involve herself with a known criminal according to the Judge in the case. She must have known that by joining that sort of lifestyle it would put her at risk. Many women do this for the excitement and the money and gangster lifestyle.

  32. All of them are without warrant, how do you think GCHQ and NSA operate. All your internet traffic goes through them for processing. That includes what you THINK is secure. They run multiple sites and operate VPN companies too.
    9
  33. At 9:15 my samsung phone woke up with the Gemini AI thing i don't even use and started asking how it could help me...
    9
  34. The problem is a lot of normal cyclists will think twice, but "professional" ones will always do it to try and cause an accident and get a claim out of it...then start hate campaigns and get everyone saying the driver is at fault etc. You see it all over twitter and youtube. People now even just walk in to the road as they think the Highway Code states vehicles must stop for them, most buses and HGVs can not stop instantly! People need to all take responsibility and not assume the position of Lycra Lout and start shouting they know their rights, it only takes one mistake to get themselves killed.
    9
  35. No wonder we live in a lawless society when sympathisers try to excuse criminals behaviour. Double standards all the time. It always seems ok for certain people to commit offences, which means they might be scared to say otherwise, or have an interest. Why would anyone lower their standards to promote criminals?
    9
  36. Thay is a complete lie.

  37. The Lindenblad type aerial, awful things in my opinion. 4 dipoles in parallel at 45degrees means a huge MINUS dB figure and having to use fairly big power amps to overcome the loss and achieve a reasonable ERP. I really wouldn't waste my time with one as coverage is nowhere near as good as a stacked dipole arrangement or stacked circular polarised aerials. Why put 600Watts in, waste all that electric with much bigger power amps, splitters and coax and have less coverage than using 4 times less to get the same coverage for stacked circular polarisation aerials OR 6 to 8 times less through a single dipole! I've never understood why people want circular polarisation now anyway, vertical is how most people have aerials. Even horizontal has died out.
    9
  38. The reason the poor thing was running about is because it was scared, being traumatised and chased for fun. It is completely unacceptable to do this and the RSPCA should prosecute. All they had to do was call the farmer and he would have gone out.
    9
  39. It shows that recruitment and psychological testing is not up to standard.

  40. The neighbouring houses were full of computer equipment and people processing it. I drove up there a few times for work purposes and was always watched!!!

  41. excellent, well said!

  42. Quite a few aerials up there, well worth a look.

  43. Lots of FAKE HOMELESS live in every City - ask yourself where they all went during lockdown. They went back to the hostels and homes they live in. They are only on the streets as they beg for money in return for drugs. In Chester there are notices telling people not to give them money. If you give a fake homeless person on the street money, you are helping to kill them.
    7
  44. Or cruise ships dumping their rubbish in the sea...
    7
  45. The live streams did, they showed local people breaking in to shops and stealing, destroying property, setting fire to bins, causing criminal damage and not caring if innocent people were harmed. This was bunches of criminals using what they saw on the news as an excuse and justification of their own failure in life.
    7
  46.  @helengren9349  Well he is a scammer, and has scammed Jim. Jim is just as open to scams as any of us, look what happened over the youtube channel. Scammers by nature are devious and he is just telling Jim what he thinks he wants to hear whilst using him and passing on information back to the scammer groups. You can not trust people like that.
    7
  47.  @TreeBrakerGaming  Not strictly true, plenty are indirectly accused and it denies a fair trial when you see names reported in newspapers. This is before any legal process, trial or conviction too. The exception is when police officers are charged, they can choose to have details kept private until after they are convicted.
    6
  48. The problem is that he will need to have every case examined if they involved suggestions of excessive force, or even had official complaints made. People like this can not be trusted, especially when they are having some form of crisis that makes them want to ram animals in cars in an attempt to kill them.

  49. I was working in a BT exchange in the middle of Chester and each time I walked past one rack I could smell burning. I got one of the engineers and he had a sniff around and come back a few minutes later with a board to replace the burnt out one with. He looked at it and laughed saying, "that's half of Chester that's been unable to make any calls". This was the time when more and more computers were being installed and you needed huge rooms with aircon plants in them. That's all changed since and most of the old equipment replaced. I can't even remember the road, but it is off a main road right in the middle of Chester, a fairly big building.

  50. Has anyone else analysed the facial expressions and language used? I think I could take a guess what we will be hearing on the news in the future.
    6
  51. It will make no difference to other drug users and drinkers that have no respect for anyone else when they drive whilst impaired. They couldn't care less who they hurt or kill. Most people are NOT like this and don't come from a type of background that drug driving seems accepted. Don't try and share blame or make everyone think this is isolated. I certainly wouldn't want to admit if a drug using family member went out in a car whilst under the influence and killed someone. I am not sure what is "brave" about that sort of thing.
    6
  52. What the police should now do is start a proceeds of crime investigation and confiscate every penny he made and any property he had, including recovering amounts from family members if they were given gifts or money. This technique has been used in many other cases.
    6
  53. They have been deliberately fiddling the Home Office Crime Stats for 25 years, ever since "groups" and community self appointed leaders started complaining it was not fair to highlight which people committed most crime. When people were arrested and went in to a custody suite they had ethnicity details recorded up until around the mid 80s. As the police become more infiltrated by people with agendas, they stopped doing it. Every criminal case is meant to have recorded the ethnicity of the offender so that accurate crime maps can be produced and resources directed to areas that people are causing most problems in. So we had a whole list of things from W, B, C, A etc etc as a descriptor and 0-7 for degree of ethnicity. So I would be W/W1. That started to be the thing dishonest officers started putting on everything to prove some kind of point, or break the Law to hide real data. There was also a section with N/NS or not stated. That started being used around the times of riots in the 80s as it seemed unpopular to show which groups were causing problems! So the question is, why are these crime statistics now false? It is simple because it would "upset" people and try to hide a problem we now have. Had police not been so dishonest, we would have had true figures and could have dealt with the problems. People still have the cheek to excuse criminal behaviour by saying they do not want stop and search. If people don't want to get caught doing something wrong, don't hang about with other known people, don't form gangs, and don't do something you know is wrong. Don't try and stop the detection of illegal activity - it makes everyone say, "I told you so".
    6
  54. Unable to watch this if you are going to play loud music over people talking, it makes it difficult to hear them.
    5
  55. And how many turn up again within hours and for what reason. Care homes report numerous people missing each week, they all turn up, so the stats are not a true picture as they can be used in any way people choose without being questioned. The number of people reported does not include number of people returned...

  56.  @murtadha96  Being in Switzerland doesn't help you! If Law Enforcement want the details they will be given them. GCHQ and NSA help themselves without asking anyway,

  57. AT 2:55 he has a nasty rash forming, or it is marks from where the knife has been concealed. Considering there are major arteries in that area, and possibly others bits, maybe he is trying to cut it off !
    5
  58. Do you know about mics they install on certain buildings to detect and record things like gunshots and to triangulate them! This was tried in the 80s and then about 10 years ago. London started it off. The Special Constable network is widely used as people are from various jobs and backgrounds and can get info the police need warrants or production orders for and need a genuine reason to access - mostly without any trace or suspicion. examples are info from BT systems, NHS systems, banks, credit reference agencies, DVLA etc - depending on where different Special Constables work - don't say it doesn't go on! They also have access to buildings to install equipment that wouldn't usually be allowed, so quite a resource to have.

  59.  @wintrywind  I definitely would be using KAPE/Nord and all the others running your data through the same Datacenter proxy servers. All your Data is logged, stored and assigned to the profile associated with your credit card account. The Data is then collected and sold again by the hosting company. ALL VPNs log your data, if they say they don't, or say no one does, they are not being honest. They all cooperate with Police and Security Services. If your data goes through anything in the UK, it must be made available to GCHQ. This is why PIA stopped using UK hosts, they had their UK servers located in Amsterdam. It doesn't stop anything, the Police ask a partner country to get the information under different local Laws. Only one or two VPNs respect privacy and make it impossible to supply data on users, they are PRQ and Mullvad. Beware of the many VPNs that are set up as a front, some like WeVPN were even being recommended by idiot influencer types just in it for the money, they never got paid! We have suspicions about Proton. Will this ever be the next Excrochat, plenty think it will.
    5
  60. The police are only saying this so he comes out and makes a mistake as the reward offer failed. If they had this CCTV, they would not have offered a reward, so something is a bit odd. There is full CCTV and we are being drip-fed bits and pieces, so people will lose interest and he will probably vanish.
    5
  61. I am sure Clair would put a few up.
    5
  62. I already have asked if I can be seen by a qualified nurse when the one I got did not understand which body parts a man has, which a woman has and what they do in each person. It took me ages to explain to her, so I am not sure what rubbish they are being taught on their degree courses, it can put people in real danger if they do not know as medical staff how to identify a biological male and female or say which one has which parts. It will also result in a few people finding this is the only acceptance they have of being treated as whatever they describe themselves as - only because people are forced to, then wasting a lot of NHS time and money complaining about symptoms they do not biologically have and could never have. I am sure there are support groups or social media groups people can join with like-minded people. Using public services to attempt to validate their ideas is not the thing to do. What people identify as is up to them. I have no problem with that, but we need to stick to legal and medical descriptions too.
    5
  63. Someone must be encouraging them to come over by the thousand. A better life? Really? Having to stay in a hotel and not be allowed to work, given minimal income etc. How is that a better life as they will not be able to do anything. We do not know who they are, we have adults going in to schools with 13/14/15 year olds and posing as children...attacks in local areas, hotels shut down and staff sacked to allow Serco to take over via their contracted company. I would almost think a government minister was in bed with someone at Serco to make money. To make lots they need lots of people and that is exactly what is happening now. The RNLI and UK Border Force are facilitating the commission of criminal offences by going to France to collect and taxi illegals back here. People have paid to get a place in a boat and RNLI are assisting this criminal offence by simply offering to pick people up. We do not know who or what is coming over to the UK by boat now. Time for it to stop. Apply to come to live and work in the UK only if you can support yourself, otherwise clear off. There is no war in Albania. I have no objection to helping people in genuine need, but not people being manipulated in order for big companies to make money.
    5
  64. NO Criminals change, so why let any of them out.

  65. There is no point dragging out all the former officers, thy know nothing about current cases or operations and can not help in any way. Their input is no more valid than a random member of the public.

  66. The lesson is - don't break the Law, very simple one to follow.

  67. They know all the guard nodes too, what you might want to look at is the settings to make Tor settings look like Microsoft update data. This can help on DPI/DPI systems, but newer ones cross reference the traffic and IP, so it is pointless depending on who you are hiding from. A guard node is as insecure as an exit node. I could set one up and inspect and modify traffic. Police and Security Services in the UK do this all the time. Look how many sites that are aimed at privacy still insist on the lowest security settings on Tor Browser and demand scripts are run! That is so they track you and know your real ID. A lot of exit and middle nodes are run by GCHQ and NSA to play with. They can stain traffic going in to see where it comes out, so get the real IP that way. Two university students were threatened or paid not to give a talk on how to de-anonymise Tor users when they went to DEFCON. The talk was pulled as it would have revealed users can be traced easily and ruined the work of the security services. Tor Browser Bundle had firefox changed by developers - because they say it was not hacked - to facilitate Operation Onymous in 2014. Scripts were all set to run, but the program was like that from default instead of how it was previously with everything set to OFF. That was pressure being put on the team by Security Services and they rolled over. Then they allowed all scripts to be run no matter if the setting was on or off. Again, to keep police and security services happy because they were running exploits on Tor Users. You really can't trust anyone.

  68.  @johnmachenzie1613  Doesn't make any difference. If you look ay DPI/DPI, Deep Packet inspection and Deep Packet Injection, the traffic type is identified and can be manipulated easily. They still know it is Tor Traffic, so can block that guard node easily or compromise that system and monitor it. The only way to use Tor is via free WiFi from a distance!

  69. A real shame as most DABradio station audio quality is worse than AM, and a lot is in mono anyway.
    4
  70. Most of the auditors do it to try and make money from claims. They will provoke and hope someone makes a slight mistake in words or actions. I saw this at a police station when they had a srone looking through windows and people on the ground had a group behind them gesturing and causing a nuisance. It was no wonder the police wanted them to move away. People also get filmed inside police stations and the idiot auditors don't know who they are or why they are there. Many auditors are jobless lowlife types with criminal records that you would not want anywhere near you.

  71. 04:15 tyre pressure is interesting as can manufacturers suggest 3. One is comfort, one "eco" even though they do not specify what they mean by that abbreviation and the other is "fully loaded" - then you have variations for up to 3 and over 3 people in the car. If you put 32PSI in for comfort, but 29PSI in for ECO, whatever than means, does that mean one is underinflated and one overinflated?
    4
  72. Charities funded by Serco using the RNLI as a taxi service tell them what to do...and when to call for help after throwing away their ID and SIM. Let the charities pay towards their housing costs.

  73. Stop waffling and get on with it! It's so difficult to listen to something when presenters just keep repeating wha tthe standard responses to everything are and then talk a lot but don't say much. What's the point of getting an ex-police officer on when he has no clue about current work or policy? He is trying to merge things with old outdated policy from before he was retired, but things have moved on a long way. The more you give in to people playing different cards each time a person is stopped, the more the problem continues.
    4
  74.  @evelghostrider  exactly, don't take any notice of the outdated freedom of the land type people as they know FA about the Law. Not one of them has ever won a single case, they all back down and comply in the end. Educate yourself about the Law, but why fight over whether you need to get out of a car unless you have something to hide.
    4
  75.  @MikyleY  It is SO true, I have seen people go to prison for "helping friends" with cashing fake travellers cheques and handing in their ID to do so. They are either lonely or stupid and just glad of the attention or being part of something.

  76.  @camofilms  It is more likely the driver had some sort of medical condition and this caused the crash - according to what is in the news reports. This will all come out after a post mortem and inquest. Companies always check employee medical records and GPs have a legal duty to inform DVLA of conditions that impair drivers. Unless there was an existing condition that would prevent a person being employed as a driver, it must have been something that happened out of the blue that wasn't previously known about as the company can be prosecuted. A very sad incident. The coach has full CCTV systems and the data recorder will be used to recreate the journey.

  78. NEVER pay Nord with a credit card ! If you use a VPN for privacy, this ensures they link all your traffic to your profile to sell it as coming from a verified user. That is really bad. Ask them why they were banned from using Paypal ! It was all over the complaints and refunds. They are not covered by any Data Privacy Laws or consumer laws, so good luck to you.

They are people that are vulnerable and have been identified and groomed by a protest group, many of them have mental health issues and need to be protected from the groups that are just using them. Go after the groups facilitating the commission of criminal offences and conspiring to commit offences.

  80. How? It doesn't matter what pressure a tyre is if you go over something that can/will puncture it - it will still be punctured. A lower or higher pressure of air between the wheel and tyre does not change the composition of the material used to make a tyre. To prevent a puncture you would need to change the material or composition of the rubber used, not the speed it is used at.

  81. Quality of DABradio is pathetic in the UK and it is mostly MONO. On one car I have the DABradio aerial is built in to the back window. Unfortunately the rear car camera and wiring used to generate quite a bit of "noise" and de-sensitise the radio on DAB, so I had to get a different camera that linked the rear to the front camera using mini coax. This happens a lot and people often wonder why DABradio and their normal radio starts acting odd. It might not be anything to do with this in your case. It means my aerial is effectively horizontal, so reception is limited compared to if it had been vertical. Poor design on the car manufacturers part. A lot of broadcast stations are mixed polarisation, but I always think that is a waste of time, money and power when most people use vertical polarisation at home.

  83. Well, there is a reason "AM" is used on aircraft frequencies and why it was used extensively by police radios fitted to cars, fire engine radios, also a lot of PMR from the 1970s and 1980s... Now it is just aircraft using it. In the late 80s I used to have a Uniden 2830 in my car and used that on USB mobile with friends on CB frequencies! AM was far better than FM when driving around. It just seemed to be clearer and louder.

  84. You need to remember, if you are being attacked, that person has set out to cause you serious harm or kill you, so you need to get in first. Don't ever be scared of defending yourself in any attack, even if your home is broken in to. Attackers quite often fall down the stairs two or three times after being startled when you walk out of the bedroom and switch the light on. A Chief Constable once said, "Dead witnesses can't talk, so it was self defence" which seems fair enough.

  85. My advice is DON'T. I tried it and had loads of trouble in the UK. People don't understand that traffic is not from you on your IP, it is from a Tor Exit node. I would pay for a remote one or pay towards the project and they will run one on your behalf for a monthly fee. Some ISPs refuse to allow it. I was with BT in 2012 and they went wild. I tried it before then as a middle node and should have stuck with that.

  87. VPNs on sale today are nothing more than Proxy Servers in rented datacenters. All traffic is logged and stored and sold by the companies involved including the hosting companies. What makes me sick is the youtube people like Tom Spark promoting and reviewing services just to earn a bit of money from affiliate sales. Many reviews are paid with prepared scripts. He reviewed WeVPN without even knowing who was behind it and that it had been compromised a year ago. Other VPNs, Windscribe and TorGuard were so desperate for new customers, they give free subscriptions to users for the remaining time they had between UK Police/Security Services closing down the fronted service and end of contracts. They know customer data is valuable.

  88. The disused 68-88MHz would have been ideal for DAB and the coverage is really good on those frequencies. It works a lot better than 200MHz! I am not sure why they went for near 175MHz to 225MHz, I used a PMR service called Dolphin TETRA in Band 3 in the 1990s. Coverage was OK, but it was single digital channels in use on a shared repeater system from Winter Hill. No one wants DABradio now because of low audio quality, low bitrates and mono, all the stations playing the same music in a different order with continual adverts and silly announcements... People prefer to use their phone and stream audio as it is more convenient and sounds a lot better.

  101. There is plenty of help for genuine homeless people, they all take it and this is funded by the council and local businesses. They go out of their way to get housing for people and get them in to employment, I have seen this often with GENUINE people falling on hard times. They have turned their life around. What you are seeing is scammers, junkies, alcoholics and fake homeless littering the streets with their "begging kit" that consists of a cardboard sign, a rented dog, a tent, smelly blankets and sleeping bag and dirty clothes to change in to. Liverpool Council run a campaign called "no 2nd night" meaning no one had to spend a 2nd night on the streets, they would be approached a few times day and night and offered help. The fake scroungers did not want that help, they chose to stay on the streets, but accepted gifts and meals/drinks etc. They stayed at home during lockdown as there was no one out to beg for money for heroin and crack. DO NOT allow yourself to be scammed - maybe as a volunteer or observer, go out with outreach workers, speak to the council and speak to local businesses that put millions in to shelters, shared housing and funded private healthcare and services for GENUINE people. You never see the genuine people back after a few days, many will go back after a year to thank those involved and tell them how much they achieved.

They don't insist on a paypal or credit card to tie you to like the bigger companies who sell ALL your data and hand it over to law enforcement, just like some DNS servers could if they wanted to. Be aware that ALL data flowing to or from servers in the UK is messed with and monitored by GCHQ. If your DNS company or VPN, ISP, VoIP provider or mobile company states they do not log, the server farms are required to by Law.

  107. The idea is to have expensive public chargers with 20% VAT. Ideal to force people to pay more for electric than they do for diesel and petrol to travel the same distance. It is also another way manufacturers make sure people keep buying new cars and don't keep older ones until they do finally pack-in.

It is being blocked by ministers that are in bed with Serco and all their other companies providing catering, healthcare, facilities management, hotels etc etc. Too much money to lose and they do not want that, or to lose backhanders.

  109. It was a great hobby in the 80s and 90s, now all people hear is aircraft, marine, amateur and PMR. There is nothing else and they all get boring. Don't waste your time and money. Mobile phones killed off PMR companies in 1994, shared repeater use vanished. Low cost radios for shop security are mostly digital now. Why would you want to hear aircraft or marine! Everything else of interest is digital and encrypted so you will never hear it.

  110. That wouldn't have taken much power. If you think about a room of people shouting to each other, if you have someone next to you, you will hear them louder than others further away. That's how transmitters work. 50KW 10 miles away can easily be blocked by 10 Watts for a mile radius from the transmitter. It doesn't mean he had more power, it's just that he was closer.

How did the drivers not see multiple warning signs and how did they not see the water and understand the height of their vehicles? Were the drivers charged with criminal offences for endangering the life of others and were they drink and drug tested ?

  114.  @TheSpotify95  I used to listen to KISS on DABradio in the car, it was brilliant at 192Kbps. Then it dropped to 160Kbps, then 128, then 112, then 80 until it sounded absolutely rubbish. That happened to a lot of DABradio stations. It turned in to a massive public con. We were promised high quality clear sounding audio with no interference. remember all the misleading adverts that had to be changed. People happily went from FM Stereo to DABmono/low bitrate/no dynamic range audio. Local radio become nothing more than the same music collections in similar orders with different adverts played over them, some announcements thrown in and a bit of talking and news. I don't listen to much radio now. In the 80s and 90s, Pirate Stations took off as they give people what they wanted. Everyone in the North West should remember the stations Radio Merseywaves, Storeton Community Radio, North Coast Radio, Radio Julie, Lazer UK and many others. Many broadcast for years on MW and VHF with good coverage.

  116. It is quite interesting to experiment with things like this. I have stopped in Wales and loaded up a wire fence through an impedance matcher on HF. On 160M and 80M I was getting loads of contacts. That was on 5 Watts. The fence must have been a mile long on a hill. I am very much in to "stealth antennas" and have a full set up for HF to UHF, no one spots them unless they really know what to look for. I've even used a wire clipped on the back of a gutter around as house as a loop antenna on HF. I also tuned up a length of 75ohm coax going up a wall to a pole and TV antenna on 10M. Aerials don't have to be high up for HF, you can run them 2ft off the ground and get great results.

Nothing on it now apart from marine, airband and the odd PMR. In the 80's and 90's it was quite interesting to listen on! Years later I used a Kenwood TH42E after extending the TX/RX to cover 400 to 470MHz... programmed mainly for my 70cm use, but one or two channels with split RX/TX were interesting! That Kenwood lasted about 6 years and broke, cheaply made junk. I got it through a company I was doing business with, Kenwood sold all the radios at 40% of retail to companies, so I got a real bargain. You get ripped off at amateur radio dealerships.

How did they get insured as most companies will run a mile if there are such reports and warnings. Fobbing people off by telling them to contact their own insurer is not acceptable. The insurer will end up recovering the costs and it will take some time if the franchise can't afford it or wasn't insured.

  125.  @watchthis7529  Not many people had heard of her, but the newspapers keep advertising the Fund. It's sickening to read the coverage. Not once was the only innocent victim in all this mentioned - the poor taxi driver they smashed in to in the Mersey Tunnel. He is out of a job, too ill to return to work and getting no support. Not one of the family wished him well or offered to share the donations with him. Maybe once we know who she was associating with - people might hold a different opinion. That is the reason the name is not being given out. The family said her boyfriend was 23 from Liverpool, even police confirmed this and it was printed in the newspapers for months. How did they identify a body incorrectly, did he have stolen ID? Then forensic reports and a proper identification of the body showed he was a 27 year old from Manchester. So no one knew his real name or age or where he lived, yet the girl met him and they had a meal in a restaurant before the crash. Never mind embarrassing the family, we all need to know what really happened.

  127. At 5:33 if there is no logging of connections, how does the service know if you use 5 or more devices at the same time? They do log the details and the App also needs to be examined to see what information it is collecting and who it is going to. If it is downloaded from GooglePlaystore it has a UUID embedded like everything else so they can track people. Mullvad is one VPN I would use, but they are not being entirely honest. All data in and out of servers in the UK is logged and recorded, to comply with UK Laws. Your data is not secure as we have seen with other VPNs. I definitely would not use Proton as you will find it is the next encrochat in a few years.

  128. No, use Drone Assist and it will show no-fly areas and the drone should not take off anyway to protect the user. I would be more worried about the RF knocking it out of the sky! I had to go to a number of radio sites in the 90s and one car I hated taking was a Land Rover. There was no way of getting up a steep hill and path without it, but when it was locked, it refused to unlock or start in some areas. It had to be unlocked with the key and pushed down the hill before it would come back to life. We did once try driving up a steep hill in Wales in an XR3i and got it completely stuck to half way up the wheels. Some transmitter sites are often remote or well hidden. One was by a Country Park at the top of Hope Mountain in Wales, but the aerial was disguised as an actual tree ! Amazing bit of design, it took me ages to find as I was looking for a mast.

It's often the ones abusing steroids that act in a violent way towards the public, cows are friendly animals and do not deserve to be treated like that - a number of criminal offences were committed, so why no arrest and why are the police asking for people to supply video evidence? Have they lost the recording from the car? It's usually only assaults or deaths in custody that cause IT failures and loss of CCTV at the exact moment of any incident.

  141. What really annoys me is fancy mixed polarisation aerials - often set as a beam on a 45degree angle or 4 folded dipoles at 45degree angles on 4 poles or those X shaped ones with 8 or 12 elements. All of them are a total waste of power, stations are having to pump in 4 times the power to get any coverage because they are inefficient. I looked at the old JUICE FM TX in Liverpool a few years ago and they were using a compromised antenna with 100Watts and gain of -2.5dB, so were allowed to turn the RF up to around 140Watts to give 100W at the aerial to overcome feeder loss. It was a dipole that had each element bent out so it was part horizontal, then vertical. It only give a combined H/V radiation pattern with 50Watts in each plane in theory. They would have been better using two dipoles - or just using vertical polarisation. I am not even sure if it is still in the Cathedral. You can go on the roof for a tour of the cathedral in Liverpool most days and look at the transmitter room if you're lucky and all the aerials on the roof. There are PMR, police, mobile companies, coastguard, taxi service and radio stations.

I would also want people with criminal records banned from such hunting groups and banned from social media.

  146. There always seem to have been two storylines running in parallel with a lot of cases you see reported in the news and most follow the same template, so this is not about the name you mention, but what people often do and it applies to many cases that have been reported previously and concluded. The best advice is if you have done something, prolonging the agony of not just holding your hands up and admitting it makes you look worse. You also waste a lot of your own money, or that of other people. Anyone donating money that later claims to have been misled will then be against others. Think of the following fictional people A,B,C,D,E and fictional Company F and fictional Police in a case that is not real, but the wording used as an example only and bearing no resemblence to anyone named here or elsewhere or any case open or closed. Person A complained bitterly that Company F had a vendetta against them for no reason, picked them at random and had used/influenced police to arrest them for no reason, search property, take possible evidence away and make up false things between them to accuse Person A of as they think they are such a threat, they are best silenced. Person A tells everyone this as fact and finds a common ground or similar thing people do not like about Company F or police and works on that to steer everything away from them, on to police and Company F. That can lead to people being asked for a petition, campaign or even donation to fight the horrible police and Company F when it might really be used to cover their own legal fees or financial needs, particularly if they were in any debt. Persons B,C,D,E don't know each other and maybe complained to police that Person A had somehow behaved in a way that made them feel threatened and reported it to police with evidence and/or witnesses resulting in investigation and action. Person D was more annoyed, wanted to be left alone and went to the high court and got some sort of proceedings issued and suggested a huge figure and a promise to leave them alone and say no more or the action would continue against Person A. Person A then confused the police action for what they found themselves accused of for a completely different thing! They tried to twist it by claiming to be a victim and being attacked by random people from Company F and police. People will use all sorts of tricks to deflect a situation.

I've got a 20Watt amp that will work on 868MHz and live on a hill with views to Manchester and Wales and beyond, so it will be interesting to also run a preamp and see how many people i can contact. I will be using a home made Slim Jim type antenna to keep the radiation angle low. Many 1/4 and 5/8wave designs tend to fire upwards which is of no use for distance. They might have more gain, but less blanket coverage.

  154. I agree, I used a VPN to stop my ISP being nosey, but found there were stronger Laws protecting my info than with PIA or the HoneyPot VPN called WeVPN. What you need to do is see how many companies refuse to accept a VoIP number even if it is valid and you pay for it. They want to be able to track you. I got a Pixel and use Graphene, with FDroid and similar stores. I use a VoIP number and only use the SIM for data. That also means all permissions are switched off to avoid tracking apart from to the Cell Site ping. Your choice of Apps needs to be changed, for example, use Bitwarden and use Aegis Authenticator. Some 2FA Apps, Twilio Authy being one, take all the data they can through permissions you agree to and sell it on to others. They have never said what they do with the data they take or for what purpose. Never use Twitter on the App, or Youtube, use browsers on the phone and use Brave. You really need to section off social media, work and hone.

  155. In the mid 1980s, Radio Julie in Merseyside used a very clever solution. Andy the engineer used those Tandy mains intercoms to link the studio to the transmitter. Then he found that he could send audio down old Rediffusion cables between flats and this helped on one raid. The DTI man run in to the flat and followed the lead from the TX to a plate on the wall ! One of them even had a heart attack running up the stairs int he flats. Sadly, Andy is no longer with us. He would have approved of 10GHz links and what people got up to in later years like DIMENSION FM 92.2 in Telford. When they put their TX on The Wrekin TV mast and linked to the caravan studio in a barn, we could hear them clearly in the North West and often as far as Southport and Chester.

  156. They ALL WENT HOME DURING LOCKDOWN so the only reason they choose to stay on the streets is to get money. Most are controlled by criminal gangs the police are aware of and do not stop. They force the people to collect money for them each day and give drugs in return according to an ex-chief that was on the Pete Price phone-in years ago. They are #FakeHomeless as they have places to stay at hostels, shared houses and flats. It is a total scam and you should not fall for any of this. Many get the train in to set up in the morning and change with others during the day. The mess they leave, especially drugs paraphernalia and bodily fluids and waste is awful - someone has to clean all that up. They buy these tents to make it look like they have nothing, they rent dogs off a man that has about 5 of them and most have signs with the same style of writing and phrases. THEY ARE FAKE HOMELESS Do not give money to them and they will clear off as they did in Lockdown.

  160. There were two serving estates at the end of the M53, but I can't find the exact details. I think they were on the MB21 site. People were wondering why there were two TV aerials on a lamp post. One was a horizontal group C/D pointing at Winter Hill, and underneath was a vertical Group A pointing to two estates by J2/3 M53. This was analogue TV. Another filler repeater was by J1 M53 and outside a council tip on a lamp post, same arrangement, Group C/D horizontal towards Winter Hill and Group A vertical to local area or housing. The power output was only 1 or 2 Watts and 5 channels when in operation. Maybe anyone local can have a look or confirm this. The M53 J2/3 one was no longer required when the Storeton Transmitter (M53 J4/5) went on air. People could use that, including a lot of people in Liverpool who were line of sight and a mile or two away compared to Winter Hill. The only problem was they got S4C and not Channel 4 as it was installed to transmit to Wales, not Wirral and Liverpool. That might have changed now. Moel-Y-Parc still doesn't cover all areas despite it's presence. There were lots of these smaller TV repeaters about in the days of analogue, most not on big masts. One or two appear to have been unofficial, set up by people to help locals out.

  165.  @douglastodd1947  The dealership or company was aware of the risk and don't appear to have done anything to minimise it or eliminate it - so in Law, they are responsible for loss. When they paid for insurance each year - if they did, the underwriters would require full details, surveys and risk assessments after looking at EA reports. It is not easy to get cover in a known flood area, especially after EA advised there was a risk. I don't know of any insurer that would cover this.

  166.  @ianmason.  You should see how many nuclear fallout shelters there are! I have built and installed lots of equipment in them since the 80s. If anyone is in the North West, there is one under the council building extension in Ellesmere Port town centre. Access via a door from the car park that looks like it goes in to the offices, or via a manhole in the car park that has a 5ft diameter concrete tube running about 20ft on an angle. Inside is a submarine door as I call it - the room is tiled and has a brush with hose attached on the wall ! Down there is a command and control centre, air/water purifiers and storage and a diesel generator and storage. There is a room with bunkbeds and a kitchen, toilets and storage. This was completed in around 1991. Access down the main stairs leads to a thick door hinged on the right. On entering the shelter, rooms to the right are beds, then the escape tunnel and tiled room with showers, toilets and a kitchen area. On the left after entering from the main door are air purification, water treatment and storage, generator. Straight ahead is a large room of about 20ft by 25ft with various computer equipment and radios. This has all been updated since. Some of the aerials on the council buildings were connected at one point. Many shelters existed like this, but were demolished. One or two still exist.

I would guess that site has a 3phase 415v supply and a 1.5KW AM TX and all the equipment probably takes 4 times that. How about 7KW ? It would be like leaving a shower on all day!!! Expensive. Over £100 a day.

  171. On 70cm i can get the Isle of Man using 5watts in to a 8dB vertical. I'm around 100miles away. On 2m i can get further than that. It depends on height. With Meshtastic on 868MHz my range is less than a mile in some directions - but i can get people mobile on Winter Hill from 40+miles away using a 5dB aerial on a bedroom windowsill. Another person is 5miles away 200ft up in a flat.

  173. When I was about 14 I started messing about with building TXs using a PCB kit from Tandy. I bought a Pantec Hobbykit, which was a push-pull oscillator on 106MHz using 2x 2n3055, later replaced on my own bigger printed circuit board with 4 x 2n3866, fed in to a dipole. It was HORRIFIC, no RF filtering, never knew about that then, plus loud splattering audio. I managed to block a whole streets TVs and used to talk to friends on a Multimode 2 CB, which also could be heard over everything. The problem was, two CBers lived within 300ft, one with a Sigma 4 and another with Sirio type aerial, so they were getting watched. What I didn't know at the time was the Radio Amateur 4 houses away was going to get a very unexpected call one Saturday night as I was playing music. A Rover 3500 police car and transit van turned up and the people kicked his door in. He was a bank manager! I had to hide the board between the lagging jacket on the tank and pull the dipole in from a back window. I later went on to get a Class A licence, qualifications in RF & electronics engineering and realise how bad all those kits were.

  174. Don't go down the route of "no win no fee finance agreement" type claims if you go after the garage directly. Many will end up losing most of their compensation in commission to claims companies. Up to 40%, so will be worse off. A big company will stretch out any claim until you get bored or can't afford to pay any more and go away. They also scare people by estimating what they will pay if they lose. If you are genuine about helping, you could cover the costs for the group action and let people pay you back once they win. Legal fees are not cheap, expert witnesses are not cheap and neither is obtaining technical reports and surveys etc. This is why most will do as suggested and claim on their own insurance - which is completely wrong, but companies do this all the time. Another interesting fact is that in the UK, NO Government building is insured, it would be too costly and payments in compensation are cheaper than having policies. Insurers will not touch them anyway.

  178. So do I for versatility and not having to keep changing aerials in tests, but they have a lower gain than a dedicated aerial tuned to a specific frequency. I prefer the Grid Type antennas and used a 4 stack dipole array for years on TV. Far more reliable than a flimsy TV aerial, it also had around the same gain figures but had a wider acceptance angle and a cardioid pattern. Handy for picking up more than one TX. It was just a piece of mesh and 4 "X" shaped elements with a built in phasing harness. For horizontal polarisation the "X" elements stood vertical one above the other, so the longest side of the reflector was vertical. Vertical polarisation meant having it as [X X X X]. Great aerials.

  186. No evidence of this involving other vehicles on the CCTV, no evidence of medical problems produced at the Coroners Court during the Inquest. The family were quick to tell the press he was suffering medical problems...but refused to say what they were. It could be anything, maybe mental health issues. You will know yourself as a professional driver that you need to notify DVLA of certain things, so does a GP and anyone failing to can be prosecuted. If you knew you had a problem that meant you were not allowed to drive, you wouldn't do so. The Coroner is trying to protect families, but it only delays the true outcome and makes him look dishonest.

This makes me wonder whether it was to stop a backlash against the family that announced to the press just after the accident that they knew he was suffering medical problems. Why would anyone continue to drive knowing this and put so many people at risk? We are not being told the truth. If a driver was suffering medical problems they had a duty to report this to their employer and DVLA, their GP was also required by Law to report any notifiable conditions to DVLA. This is done to stop people being put at risk.

  193. It's not the same thing, you need to consider they are only around 100mWatts RF output. On 868MHz that doesn't go far in a built up area, it needs to be high up or using a really good aerial, or both. Walkie talkies can be 5Watts RF and work down nearer 440MHz. RF at different frequencies works very different in different locations. My favourite band in 4M or 70MHz for base to mobile coverage, nothing beats it! DABradio should have used that band.

He run off and they caught up, there was probably a fight and he has punched the man who forgot to pick the sunglasses up! They have either taken him somewhere or he fell in to the sea....then they made the call on his phone to fake a genuine one. The woman who saw him walking away has ruined any chance of forensic recovery as police didn't take the questioning any further knowing he left and wasn't killed at the AirBnB. WHY did they let those two men go??? Are they informants? I go with your theory of a shallow grave.

  197. Doesn't matter that much as you will not hear anything of interest. RG213 is fine as an aerial high up without obstruction is more important. You need to consider what you will be listening to and make sure the aerial covers the frequencies.

I wanted to see it more structured about types of scam, then how scammers use various phrases and actions people could learn to associate with real scams. The production crew didn't seem to have a clue. Showing the video in which you started naming people in a scam centre or doing the chipmunk would have been hilarious, a scammer fight back, maybe including all the tricks trilogy media did. It felt like a wasted show when you could have put so much in to it if directing!

  201. Firearms Officers DO get paid more than someone of the same rank as them with similar length of service. I happen to know one or two of them. They get a lot of overtime too for escort duties and protection duties, a lot of which is spent sitting about protecting scum criminals. I really doubt you are a police officer as you do not even understand the legal definition of Homicide or Murder. Not every death is as a result of Murder. The CPS has a policy of mis-charging to secure the original offence they wanted a conviction on. In this case they knew it could possibly be manslaughter at a push, but a jury could find a person not guilty with flimsy evidence. They might do a plea bargain and allow a guilty plea to a lesser offence, but that would be a s18 wounding and not considered serious. What they want is a plea to a lesser offence of manslaughter as a plea bargain, so have incorrectly charged a person with murder - knowing there is no evidence based on the legal definition of the offence and what the police have already said happened on the night. The Officer will be found not guilty as I suspect the CPS will need to offer no evidence once the evidence is presented correctly.

  202. Part of Betwys-Y-Coed never had TV or radio - not sure if they have relays now. They only just had phones and when internet took off around 1995, speeds were 4-5Kbps using Demon, or attempting to via 14K4 and 28K8 modems. I used to go on holiday every year and stay near a farm, so got to know the family that run it. They couldn't even get MW stations unless they hooked up the radio to miles of fence. We did that with a CB one day and the result was amazing from about 3miles of barbed wire running 3ft off the road, then up a hill. There were no mobiles back then and no VHF radio, SATTV was not common.

  203. He is very busy during the day, so was sitting up doing a quick youtube edit and decided to open a parcel he forgot about from earlier on that day. That sounds reasonable to me. Someone run at him as he was walking out of the kitchen with a cup of coffee and large knife about to be used to cut a scone! There are loads of defences. The best I heard was for a man being caught in a shop with a knife and accused of attempt robbery. He had been "making a pie" and was cutting pastry up when he saw a friend walk past, he run out of his kitchen and over the road to see him going in to a shop and followed him in, completely forgetting about the knife he was holding. The CCTV didn't match up with that version of events!

  210.  @stevie6340  I am just looking up what the rules are around legal aid now, how much you are allowed to have in the bank etc. It is means tested. Usually only very poor or very rich people can have access to fair justice, people working on a average income often have to pay monthly contributions of £600-£800 a month. There is no guarantee you get any of this back if you are not convicted either - so this is why people hate false accusers. A Judge wouldn't direct a QC on legal aid to help with a case like this. That's not the way it works. A person would need to find his own representation, then make applications for legal aid and then make a further application for a QC. Why would they even need a QC on a relatively easy case. It's almost sounding as bad as when people will say "we have London Counsel" thinking everyone is going to be scared. They are no better qualified than Counsel from any other Area. Judges are way more clever than a lot of people and see the same things all the time.

  211. What made you go for inverted L on MW? I used a 180ft long wire from a tall building down to nearly ground at a 45degree angle, an inverted V from the corner of a building and 180ft horizontal between two buildings that were 120ft tall. The best for around a 30mile local coverage using 100Watts on MW was the vertical. The inverted V wasn't much different. The horizontal was not as good for local. SW sounds interesting to try. Many pirates I listened to were around 6205KHz. What I don't like is people that bought amateur radio equipment and put it on SSB, it limits the audience compared to AM. For VHF I used 65Watts in to a slim jim antenna and due to the location was able to get a 40mile radius. Using colinears meant less coverage due to the radiation angle, so it was a trade-off between loads of ERP firing up to the stars, or less gain but a blanket coverage. Radio is for experimenting with ! Tell us more about the SW set up.

  212. I only got in to amateur radio through CB and pirate radio. I used to tune about on a radio when I was younger and heard music and people having a laugh and knew it wasn't a legal station. After a year of contacting the station when I was at school, they met me and let me go and have a look. I was SO disappointed!!! I am not sure what I was expecting, but the station was in a flat and consisted of a record deck, tape player and a home built transmitter. I remember it was a PCB on the living room floor with other bits of pcb glued on the top and components all soldered on and a bit of coax going up to a dipole on a chimney. Power output was 25Watts. It was powered by a CB power supply and there was a mixer, headphones and mic. It sounded really good on air, but I was expecting some fancy studio! I started learning more and put my own TX together, wiping out a whole street of TVs. Over a few months I refined it, taught myself more and even built a stereo encoder. I was never in to the music side of it then, I just etched PCBs and bought all the bits from my local electronics shop. I then moved in to aerial design, audio processing and really went wild. By this time, raves were becoming popular, so I got in to the dance/trance/techno stuff. I had a few near misses, but was never caught.

  214. Good job they didn't know about people using amateur radio equipment to tx/rx... loads of people listened to police up until around 2004 around here. They didn't realise other frequencies were used and locals used scramblers. I had a kenwood th42e in 1994 that didn't only cover 430-440 if you voided the warranty and modified it. Imagine the chaos we would have now with all the cheap Baofeng radios.

  215. I can't tell you how much i dislike those lindenbladd type antennas! In my experience they are not efficient and can easily be outperformed by most other types. A few stacked dipoles outperforms them using much lower power. Circular Polarisation is not effective at VHF. Why have a massive minus dB gain and have to put 6 times the power up the coax, then have slanted radiation which just doesn't work well.

  216.  @J43rv1  He might have been the only person using Tor at the time on the college network, and there was a good chance it was linked, but there was NO EVIDENCE.

  217.  @johnmachenzie1613  No he wouldn't, they would have gone through the amount of users on the network at the exact time. Then got a list of users and the IPs they connected to. The Tor Bridge/Guard would have stood out a mile and it would only have delayed the arrest. The police would look at people connecting to sites, check what sort of traffic was used and then see a guard node and think Tor.

  220. Nothing to do with knowing less about technology, it is quite often because they are glad to get a call and speak to someone. They just go along with what they are told. It's like when they get warned to lock doors and keep keys out of sight. They agree then leave doors unlocked and keys in view of letter boxes. One person said they had nothing to steal, another said no one hard arms that long and one said no one would go in if they were in the house. Despite all the warnings, people ignore them through genuine lack of mental capacity, or through greed and thinking they are more clever than the scammer and will teach them a lesson. I saw that with one lonely pensioner who went to prison for getting money for fake Travellers cheques in a post office for "friends". He kept the money, the post office called police and give a copy of his passport he had used. Loads of cases about disabled people scammed and trying to put pressure on police. What they didn't realise was that they could be jointly charged as they had committed fraud too. There are set groups that become victims and repeat victims - People lacking mental capacity, the only genuine victims as the rest agree to take part knowing the risks. People that are lonely and will do anything.to stay on the phone. People that are dishonest and think they are more clever than a scammer, but discover their dishonesty backfires. I see loads of victims and have even been to one of the bank fraud departments. One person called a victim., explained he had frozen the account due to fraud , give all the details and they just wouldn't accept it. This is happening all the time. If a customer Insists on ignoring advice and it is recorded, they do not just simply get a refund. It is their money they are wasting and not the banks.

  221. Forget it for low power radio station broadcasts. Use a dipole or make a SlimJim that's 2.2m tall, this gives far superior local coverage to a dipole. It depends how low power the TX is. 100mWatts will not get you that far in a built up area, but will if the antenna is on a hill. The only thing to eliminate dead-spots is way more power.

  222. I also had a 40channel mid band rig, AM. It was hooked up to a DV27 in the loft on a biscuit tin with loads of tin foil. I also hid mine behind the tank in the airing cupboard!!! The threat of detection was real enough, especially when a neighbour reported you. I had one visit later when I had a 40ch FM radio. The man in the van went next door and listened to me on every channel using his modified Pye Pocketphone or something very similar. He looked at the licence, come back and said that it was the neighbour's TV. Years later I got a Multimode 2 and then a UNIDEN 2830 I had many contacts on for years. I also had some wild aerials from dipoles to silver rods. Unfortunarly a 5/8 wabe on a 30ft pole blew down. I started using a linear amp at one point and was obliterating TVs and radios a few roads away. I was using a temporary aerial in the garden and one night heard a commotion. A radio amateur two houses away was having his door kicked in by RIS and police. They had tracked it to the wrong house. A few years after moving from there I took my Class B and then my Class A licences, but found amateurs really boring old people. I preferred CB for the people I spoke to, amateurs just wanted to bore everyone about what they had, radio and electronics etc, not everyone wants to talk about all that every day. I prefer data modes now.

  224. The best example i saw of that was a man who borrowed £18K to buy a BMW, he was paying back £600 a month over 3 years and once the novelty wore off - he got bored. He drove it a few miles, parked up in a village and left it before reporting it stolen. The fool didn't know that his BMW keys recorded a lot of data including the last few trips and state of controls on the car for the last journey including the time and GPS position when it was parked. He sent the keys off to the insurers, BMW examined them both and the insurance company found the car parked up, asked him a few questions and then called police. He lost his job, his home and went to prison for 18months. His excuse was that he worked on an oil rig, could afford it, but after showing it to people etc he got bored and claimed the garage was ripping him off with the 3 year finance so wanted to stop paying. A lot of people do this, the same as people short of money staging accidents.

  225. I had a taxi drive in to my back wheel in a car park. The 4 invisible passengers made statements to say they were all injured, passengers paying for the journey, then said they were on the pavement and witnesses. I tracked them all down and found they were all related and the taxi driver was helped by a solicitor that become well known for scams. There was no interest in stopping the claim and I had to go to a court and give evidence. This went on for 18m and it was just for the insurers to get money. The people involved made multiple claims and were never prosecuted for fraud. I had to demonstrate that if I had passed a junction, and a taxi didn't stop at a give way line, it couldn't be my fault if he drove in to my back wheel. There were no records of any booked taxi journey either. Lots of things shouted fraud, but companies wanted to make money fighting each other. It was before car cameras.

Why are people prepared to protect criminals for some offences and not others? They are part of the problem we have. If you have information, give it to police or crimestoppers as they have requested. This is a really terrible incident.

  228. Most people are fitting a random shaped plug or socket on the end of the cable and giving an adapter from that to a real OBD2 socket to the garage! Taking the fuse out for power to the OBD2 socket used to be a good one, but the people have units with batteries in now. The best way to prevent car theft is a hidden switch on a few of the circuits, like people did in the 1960s on cars like the Mini! It was always on the fuel pump and it meant the car would only get down the road before it stopped. You could do this for any of the circuits, just a simple hidden switch or one of the fancy alarms that makes you go through a start sequence like "left indicator on, volume button down, press brake and press interior light".

  229. You can turn it off, but the problem is the useless modules in cars that do not have any encryption built in. To pinch one car in this video you simply buy the module from the boot and the keys from a scrap one, or get a key made, then break in and change the module. Easy as that. What car manufacturers should have done is employed people that didn't lie about their expertise and qualifications, how many graduates have bluffed their way in to jobs and caused this problem or failed to prevent it! A simple encryption on the CANBUS system between the modules in the car and hardcoded IDs all linked would have solved this. There would have been no way to inject data to mimic controls or conditions and no way to change one module without going back to a manufacturer or main dealer. There is NO EXCUSE for this apart from people got jobs that lied to get them, and it shows, or they were deliberately trying to force a company out of business and devalue the Brands. It's one or the other as no manufacturer would release products knowing they could be stolen in seconds, used insecure systems and could have everything bypassed. In my car, I can not even change a display, radio, screen, button for the window etc without it being unpaired by the dealer and paired again. So why in a Range Rover that costs far more than what I have can a module be changed for any old one.

None are allowed to say anything which is worse.

  232. Not the first pirates they helped! What happened to them as they made some really good amateur gear. None of their equipment was used for licenced people - it was only authorised Home Office type vendors that were able to do that. British Gas used Pye Westminsters and got blocked out one whole weekend in 1986/7 by a station near Liverpool, a DJ called Mike Hughes went on 106.2MHz. The whole PYE range was great, starting with the Cambridge. You could just alter a couple of parts and have it on any of the bands so many were put to use on pirate stations. The PYE linear amps were for preset bands, M1 was 88-108MHz. A lot of early station like Radio Julie used a Pye Cambridge, the person behind it, Andy Davies, died a few years ago. He was the first to send the audio down the Rediffusion cables on an estate so the studio and transmitter could be kept apart.

  233. This tunnel is so unsafe and would be banned today if it was newly built due to cars coming the other way and no divide.

There are still no speed cameras in that tunnel and no divide between the lanes.

  243. It's not secure really is it. There is no standard of encryption between email providers, so all your emails go in clear text in and out of their spam filters. Your clear text email goes in to the service, goes through a spam filter, then gets encrypted for you to read. When email goes out, it goes in clear text... All your email is logged and stored BY LAW by ProtonMail...for Law Enforcement. Don't be fooled. They also need to link your phone and credit or debit cards or paypal to your account for law enforcement. E2E is a false claim, so is secure.

  249. It is inappropriate speed that can be just one factor of many in accidents and not always the fault of the driver. If a child was playing in the road on a 20mph limit and run after a ball for example, someone doing 20 might hit them, someone doing 30 would be past before they run out - it is not always a case of saying "too fast". You might also need to ask why a child was put at risk by parents. I have been at 137mph in one car in a 40mph limit and 155mph in a 70 limit. The 155 was inappropriate I thought due to other road users and time of day, but the 137 was appropriate because it was early hours of the morning and no one about on a road that would require a car ato reach and no pedestrians, homes or businesses nearby. I must say those speeds were allowed, not just some boy racer! Many people do not know how to control a car, that is why they crash. Many can only go fast in a straight line and take no account of what is around them. That's why you see so many idiots crashing BMW or Audi cars all the time, they rely on driver assistance but run out of talent. I think the ban was uncalled for unless the person keeps committing the same type of offence. What we have now is clueless Magistrates who volunteer for something to do in retirement, or have an axe to grind and are not legally qualified. There are a few exceptions, but the Judiciary do NOT have any respect for them and often have to sit on appeals to guide them in the errors of their ways, or call in to question what a Law Student thought was legal advice before telling them what sentence to give and letting them decide how bad the person looks. Why else would someone dress up for a hearing if it was only a hearing based on facts and evidence? Some probably give full sentences to burglars if their shed was broken in to for example! Others might not like speeders. What we have to watch for is busy-body Magistrates falling for character references which are all rubbish as every criminal is "honest and trustworthy", "looks after sick relative" or "suffers a disability and would find it hard to get around", maybe "unable to take children to ballet or football" and the "hardship" argument. Time and time again it just means a person couldn't care less about his or her family, job or home unless he or she is caught. Why are people still driving with 12 or more points by the way? Bent Staff or people charging not to add points? Rant over!

  253. It's actually quite boring inside them! A few racks with equipment in plain cases, a few power supplies, a backup system with batteries...trays with coax and a few circulators and diplexers, it's a right let-down. The newer ones might have computers or a phone. One in Wales had it's own BT phone inside, but it sounded like the person using it was in a cave due to the brick and concrete building. The most exciting thing i found in one was a 15year old chicken pot noodle, a screwdriver and wire cutters. The Home Office ones were more secure with electric fences, some not even switched on, cctv and alarms hooked up to BT RedCare. One used for police had ANPR cameras! Not that exciting inside really, i am not sure what people expect.

  266. So that's 50KWH at 37p per KWH, it costs the same as a petrol that does 34mpg and far more than a diesel that does 50mpg in town and way more on a longer trip. Add that to the much higher purchasing costs and servicing and insurance and breakdown cover and you are now paying more, far more to run electric cars. You go to a street charger and prices are higher again. It doesn't make sense to buy one now.

  267. Or like all the stupid BMW drivers, a roof box or ski rack. During lockdown there seemed to be a sale on ski racks and every BMW I saw had them fitted - even though they could not fly out of the country and nowhere was open to ski in the UK. The funniest roof box setup I saw was on a Volvo estate car - the car was empty, but it would have been possible to fit another car inside the back. I'm not sure why people drive about with them on as not many use them, is it some fashion accessory or BMW and AUDI drivers showing they are even more stupid than everyone else? It's always the same make that attracts the same type of people, maybe because they are really easy cars to drive, so people that are not very good tend to go for the models with driver assist packs and automatic gearboxes leaving them a stop and go pedal and big thing for pointing the car.

  268. The big problem is, all the reviews are exactly the same from the hundreds of people that were sent the RPi5. They are not as good as a miniPC that doesn't cost much more when you add a power supply, mouse and keyboard and storage and case and cooling and all the other bits you need. The mini PC is far better value and not as slow, plus it runs a lot more and could be used to run other OS. Now we have a silly situation of not being able to buy one, not being guaranteed we will get one even if we pay in advance to companies wanting to make money from our free loans. I tested it too, it's not a PC replacement, it's slow and not good on youtube and struggles on 4K videos and dual monitors. It is NOT that much better than a 4. So if you just want to run AdGuardHome or PiHole it is OK. Forget trying to run a firewall on it!

  270. In Liverpool the council first started funnelling traffic after complaints from newly developed Albert Dock retail outlets that people were not spending enough and they were not getting as many visitors as promised. The first thing to happen was parking charges, people didn't bother stopping and went to nearby Cheshire Oaks retail park. Next the Council funnelled traffic past Albert Dock by putting "no U turn" and "no right turn" signs up at every traffic light and by closing off roads completely. People were forced to queue on the main road outside, which then made it impossible for people to get in and out! Less people went, retailers whinged and the council tried something else...they used timers on traffic lights, not road sensors. This was to try and say the area had congestion, one part of the road would be packed, but the next two junctions completely clear, so they interrupted traffic flow and restricted it. Later, the corrupt council staff were awarding contracts to companies they held interests in or family were involved in to narrow roads and ruin junctions. This happened 3 times without consultation with emergency services. They put a huge paved area in the middle of a main road that could have been bus and bike lanes and suggested people could use this space - then said they couldn't as they were in the middle of exhaust fumes and noise. Now the City Centre is gridlocked due to road closures and funnelling and other restrictions, all in time for congestion charges to try and get money back that was misused and stolen from taxpayers for the gain of others. The emergency services now can't get vehicles through the queues, the lanes were narrowed so people can no longer move to the sides and high kerbs were fitted to make sure people stayed in their lanes - so they can't even move. This will result in deaths and delays to incidents. I have lost count of the number of parked ambulances and fire engines with blue lights, all so a graduate can say, "oh look, I made a new road layout", but did not have any experience or knowledge as they don't teach that at university. People living in the area just kept agreeing to it all, voted for the same people as they were "nice people" - complete idiots. The locals all caused the mess they now object to. The council also lied about pollution and exhaust fumes. The councillors FORGOT about all the data DEFRA was collecting since the 1960s in every area of the UK, it showed pollutants and precise times of air quality samples. Liverpool Council were forced to retract false and misleading statements because of this and looked a bit stupid.

  271. To back up your claim, can you tell us how many and in which towns and cities? You must know and be able to give that information. I am interested to investigate the backgrounds of the people as many in my local City Centre lie about being in the forces, usually drug addicts that will lie about anything to get your money for their dealers. If you can provide the information you claim to have and have suggested you have knowledge of first hand, we can also look at the charities in those areas and help you put together a complaint to the Charities Commission - then you can provide proof to them and have something done.

  272. We already have that, 4G and 5G which is far cheaper than setting up a company to manage a service and equipment plus licences. Mobile phone companies are already offering widespread WiFi from phone masts now. It would have been a great idea to try 20 years ago, but there isn't a demand now unless you live in some remote area and want to set up a 4G/5G to WiFi repeater, in which case you could just set up a phone repeater and get a better service without any licence problems.

  273. Well that's 80 less criminals on the streets making everyone elses life a misery - how about thinking of all the victims of crime for once. Why should we all excuse the actions of criminals based on religion or colour of criminals or their relative's ability to incite rioting across the UK - a further criminal act involving many more victims. Outrageous decision to charge the police officer with any offence. The CPS is clearly doing this because of the fear of being labelled - or being sympathetic to criminals again. It is sad to see what is happening in the UK now. ALL police officers need to stick together now and refuse to carry guns as it could be them next. We will soon see who has no respect for their own colleagues.

  275. Waste of time, the original with the car is best. Noise is the sound of restrictions. The pipes and detonators in the intake are designed a certain way for performance. Paper filters are NOT restrictive! They are 12 times the size of aftermarket ones and work evening mostly blocked. Small filters need much bigger holes to pass the same as a paper filter. Dirt goes in your engine. I used various filters on lots of cars for 40years, they all degraded very fast. Absolutely wasting your money. A paper one gives far more BHP and torque on a rolling road. I also ruined a MAF when it got covered in the oil from a k&n.

  278. It is a legal requirement for site operators to know what they have operating as they get called when there is a problem. Any loss of service causes a problem and interference is a legal issue. Everything is licenced and the operators and RA check regularly. They also do spot checks. In the days of pagers around 94 i was at a hilltop site in Wales when the RA turned up to do field strength tests. A VHF pager was splattering and when i let them in the building they found the 10Watts from the TX was going via a 400Watt RF amp in to their own aerial on the mast - around 137MHz. They had the site owner and company rep there within 45mins and took the amp away. Had they not complied, the equipment was going to be switched off and removed. The way the sites work is that you have a few wideband VHF and UHF aerials for general use. You can use your own or you can use a wideband RX one for VHF and another for UHF and TX through your own. There are circulators fitted, but it depends what room is left. The old PMR repeaters would use a common receive aerial at the top of the masts and TX on their own. That's because the common aerial would be a 68-88MHz, 160-180MHz for example, or 440-460MHz, so never cut for one frequency, but good enough in that location. That was only one part of the mast and buildings. There were relays, links, commercial stations and 70cm / 2m repeaters in some. Now they have TETRA and Cellular. Sites i went to were never alarmed either. It was just a case of being issued with keys. One site had about 8 padlocks all joined to each other and wrapped around a gate, you opened your own to get in! Sadly, pirates would install equipment on some of them with 10GHz links, steal electric and splatter and interfere.

Don't forget they (and police) see all your unencrypted Data - under UK Law definitely as it is a requirement. If the company itself does not directly log data, the host company or equipment owner is required to. It doesn't matter if a server is RAM only.

  285. I would prefer to use public and unknown wifi compared to nord ! How anyone can think a VPN gives anonymity or even privacy is beyond me and shows they advertise for money - or simply do not understand the services VPNs sell. I can have stats on customer traffic, manipulate data for payment to tamper with search results and redirect traffic to sites - also get stats, capture user names and passwords. I can pay for customer profiles too, all because your VPN is in a country no data protection laws apply. Your ISP at least operates according to Laws. The other myth is that your VPN data is not logged. It might not be directly by the IP company at times, but it is by Law by hostings and rack companies that supply the equipment to VPNs to operate in DataCenters! You are all being conneced by a play on words. Anything in and out of the UK is also logged by Law and must be able to be decrypted and inspected. That shows ALL companies are complying with Laws of different countries, why do you think people using VPNs are always caught doing illegal things when they try to hide. Why do you think so many Tor users are caught, that is nothing more than a proxy now, the term anonymity was dropped and discontinued as it was proved not to be true now.

  289. Did you ever know about ECHELON, the taps that were put on lines, Radio Communications Agency installing SDRs in 1994 so they could remotely monitor the spectrum and direction find in each area, or Security Services installing their SDRs with transmit capability? The SDR cover was blown by a news channel in the UK in around 2007, and the story was that local WiFi was being monitored to protect people and inform them if they were using a weak password. The real story was that it was for "packet injection" and repurposing WiFi equipment for surveillance purposes, not to mention snoop on people and attack those that "air-gapped" computers thinking it would keep them safe! There was a lot going on in BT exchanges and there still is to this day. Don't ever think that phoning a charity to report a crime or using 141 protected your identity, your full details were still logged, it just didn't appear on your phone bill. Police used to abuse their position and that of others, or use Special Constables, who worked for BT, to perform checks on numbers for example. Nothing was ever logged.

  290. The problem is - how secure is the device that your password manager is on. If your phone has been hacked or your PC hacked, all the attacker needs to do is watch what you are typing or what is displayed on the screen. This means a simple modified Excel file or just a plain system hack gets you in. It makes your encrypted messages, emails and calls in the clear before and after any encryption. The programs themselves are not the real risk. You could go to a naughty adult site, allow scripts to be run on a browser and find you have a compromised computer and it will be your backdoor people go for! There are SO MANY risks. Secure your network, secure your devices, learn not to click on things, open documents in Google Drive and use NextDNS together with programs like AdGuardHome to limit certain sites.

  291. They choose to live like this. Speak to the charity outreach workers in the City and they will tell you they are fake homeless. I used to feel sorry for them, but after seeing what they did and how they operated, I found most lived not far from the City Centre, some travelled by train from as far as Ellesmere Port in the morning to set up in a doorway or by a cash machine. They have places in the YMCA by Scotland Road, Liverpool and Whetstone Lane, Wirral. All are substance misusers and have criminal records. If you want to clear the streets, give them their drugs for free, this would stop criminal gangs forcing them to collect money for them in exchange for drugs. They all stayed at home during lockdown, if they were really homeless they would have still been there. Don't be scammed by these organised crime groups.

  292. The cyclist should have done that, but none will admit their mistakes or even deliberate actions. I can't tell you how many I have seen deliberately trying to cause accidents. Usually on estates it is children who will ride with no lights and go between cars and across their path and cause cars to stop. I have filmed this a few times. Then you get out of work teens who think where there is blame there is a claim and stage accidents by waiting for someone to turn across their path and riding in to the side of them before lying on the floor - all for a bit of money. The major problem is caused by the lycra louts who have all got helmet cameras and copies of the highway code and almost make themselves vexatious litigants. They stay on the same parts of roads identified and shared by others and will put their own life at risk by deliberately riding in to people. It is a really silly game to play.

  294. That's interesting to know. I had a few scams pulled by VM I reported to OFCOM. The first was I had an 18month contract for £40/month total. In month 14 they said they wanted £9 more, so now £49/month. I refused and said it's a fixed contract. They sent an amended contract i did not sign covering the 18m with a % reduction by each component in the package, so 3% off phone, 6% off TV, 2% off broadband. I refused to pay as this was a new contract and I had not agreed to this. They refunded the £36 they tried to scam. I told them i was not renewing, based on being told my bill would go to £76/month after this contract ended. Not renewing (not defined as "cancelling" as the contract was ending) proved impossible. Each staff member obstructed and lied to me and the first barrier was the "input the 2nd, 3rd, 5th letter of your password". That would not work anyway on a home phone. The next barrier was "can i have the email registered to your account". This is NOT your primary email, it is the one you supplied when you first purchased the VM services, so it could be an old gmail or yahoo one. After that they ask for a password, again, this is NOT for your primary email, it is one you set when you first purchased the services. How many remember it. Refuse to let them send you a link to go and reset it, this does not work. It is to get you off the phone. They also ask for a mobile number, once again that is whatever you give when you purchased the services or first signed up, it is not the one on your customer records! VirginMedia can not even see the number you are calling from to confirm you are at home. Once past that, if you can give the date of the last bill payment, amount and sort code, they will speak to you. Scamming dishonest staff work on a Bonus Scheme and have to meet Targets for sales and retention. They get discretionary discounts to apply at the start of the month. if customers get difficult, they give them an offer. Some without any left will transfer or cut them off to avoid being told off for not meeting targets. It took me around 8 hours of calls to finally get a disconnection date. I was not impressed, but the biggest scam VirginMedia is now pulling is one they use in other Indian Scam call centres. Two weeks after being sent my cancellation date by email, I got a text from VM asking me to "check your documents". I thought this would be about leaving, the final bill and how to return equipment. Clicking the link took me to to a site designed to auto-agree and auto-sign a NEW 18month contract. I didn't know at the time, it was 3 hours later I got a welcome to virginmedia and new contract. So some dishonest scammer in an Indian call centre that Virgin subcontract thought they would steal a bonus from Virginmedia by lying and saying I had asked for this new contract, then chose the wording for the text to deliberately mislead for the purpose of fraudulent activity. I then had to send all this to OFCOM again and start another complaint and then got harassed by Virginmedia with 153 calls to my home number and mobile in the month before disconnection. The staff also lied about which equipment to return, one advisor said, "just dispose of it, take it to your local recycling centre". The next email asked for the TV box and SuperHub2 and accessories. A further email asked for that equipment plus the SuperHub 3. The idea was to see me get a bill for non-return of equipment. I have since packaged everything up after asking for a return label and packaging. The date they set for receipt if collected by their courier was after the date they required, so they would try to charge. I packaged it and took it to a collection point and it has gone, but I also photographed every item in detail and took a video of the box being sealed so they can not say equipment was "missing". I am now having to go through the Small Claims court to recover £59.50 plus legal fees, claim issue cost plus interest as they will not give back the overpayment they took for the time AFTER they knew I would be disconnected.

  297. Inflating tyres does FA, I tried it on diesel and petrol cars since 2004. All different makes. Over-inflation causes much more heat, poor handling and makes the car unstable. The same for the scam of eco-tyres or low rolling resistance tyres, they make NO difference to MPG. I would like to see the proof YOU have of the tests you conducted to support your claims as I suspect you are just reading bits on sites and repeating them as some sort of "fact". The most economical speed depends on engine RPM and surroundings, the car will not be much different at 30mph compared to 33mph providing you are in the correct gear and driving sensibly. Driving in 3rd at 30 will increase fuel consumption in a petrol as the RPM goes higher, but not always in a diesel, it can increase MPG by being in the correct gear. The same as if you tried using 5th at 30mph, the engine would throw much more fuel in. The accelerator is what is linked to your wallet. Learn to plan ahead, let the car roll in gear to red lights and get ready to move off again if they change, take your foot off the accelerator going down a hill - the car cuts the fuel. AVOID scammers telling you to fit these awful tuning boxes they lie and say increase MPG, they don't, for your $500-600 you are getting a $10 voltage multiplier that takes a reading to or from a component and increases it. In most cases all it does is increase the fuel pressure. On a diesel that causes clattering when cold due to excess diesel injected, then black smoke from all that diesel now injected incorrectly that isn't used for combustion, but burning off in the EGR, turbo, Manifold and DPF blocking it up. The same goes for scammers selling a REMAP, who would you trust more? A backstreet company or major manufacturer that spent millions on research and development. The car is already set how it should be for max economy, power and emissions. Some backstreet garage is NOT going to increase your MPG unless they fit a smaller engine or reduce performance by restricting fuel being injected so it uses less. THINK and learn about engines and don't be scammed so easily. Save money by using the car less, removing excess weight from it and change your driving style.

People not reporting those in gangs, involved in drugs and thefts/robberies are part of the problem in society and don't even see it. We have no-go zones and areas controlled by gangs because people allow it and will not stand up to them. They allow themselves to be controlled. It's time to stop all this nonsense now, speak out about criminals, don't let them run wild killing young innocent children.

  312. SCR? As in Storeton Community Radio on 1026KHz? Anyone from the North West will remember that station from around 1982 onwards, then NCR North Coast Radio 1350KHz and Radio Merseywaves 1242KHz. All had fairly good coverage from different blocks of flats. One of the best was Mersey Heights in Tranmere, Wirral. That had outstanding views for miles. It was possible to see the Winter Hill TX, also down the East Lancs Road and across to Southport and Wales. I remember the panic when an electric company thought people were stealing electric by running wires from the roof on the flats down to lamp posts, they had no idea it was a medium wave aerial and were up on the roof touching it. In the North West everyone remembers Radio Julie 104.8 stereo and Slag Off International 105.3 who blocked the gas board in 1985 by using 106.2MHz. This was in the Liverpool Echo. A lot of the people involved in Pirate Stations in the North West have died. Famous people like Andy Davies who inspired a lot of people - then the larger than life Dave Collins, who ended up on Internet Radio Stations. Many stations were raided each year.

  313. The postmortem never showed ANY medical condition, or it would have been recorded by his GP and DVLA and produced and used in evidence at the inquest by the Coroner. It's more likely he fell asleep at the wheel as police did not find any drink or drugs in his system and neither did the postmortem or this would have been produced in evidence at the Coroners Court. I'm wondering why the family were so quick to tell the press about an existing medical problem together with a gofundme when the Coroner did not agree there was any medical cause for this accident. The Coroners inquest is available to all to read through.

  315. Not always accurate or covering every detail. The remote monitoring stations used SDRs from around 1992, they were located at every BT phone exchange building and monitored the spectrum in each area. Pirates were identified quickly as there was a setting to only show new stations that were not known. They were also combined to give direction finding. This same system is still is in use today and is VERY accurate now, accurately locating people within a few metres. I have seen it in action for locating people jamming emergency services. Once a report was made, the source was identified and located within 30mins. It used to concentrate on anything 4M and above, not it does HF and in to the microwaves. The equipment is also used by GCHQ to monitor WiFi and was tested in a program of WiFi interception by monitoring home WiFi in a particular area and using packet injection etc. WiFi has a number of vulnerabilities so it is possible to force disconnects to get a password for example. Security Services were using this and still do. The official line in the Press when someone found out was that they were looking who had not secured their WiFi to try and help them improve security. Your local BT exchange has a lot of extra equipment installed used by many agencies...look at the aerials on the roof that are not for mobiles or TETRA.

  322. Tor is the biggest risk. I remember reading the docs years back about all the warnings such as "do not open downloaded files unless disconnected from the internet" and "do not run scripts". Later we found out how most people were caught through various techniques. One was files that had an odd extension, the computer would use VLC for example to go and fetch something, but this often caused an outbound connection and provided the ID of the user. Word and Excel documents, even a lot of JPG would cause the computer to connect outside Tor to a Law Enforcement IP. A lot of spyware was used too, people would click on anything in order to obtain something illegal. Users were watched on their own webcams, remote access tools were used too. In 2013 TorProject complied with an Order from Law Enforcement to assist them with identifying users. Around October/November a modified version of Tor was put on the site for download and marked as an update. To facilitate Operation Onymous, Tor Project had set privacy to low and allowed all scripts to run. This is what law enforcement needed to identify computers and IPs going to various sites. The version I downloaded from TorProject had a "Profiler Trojan" built in and my complaints were dismissed about why this was being distributed. It was for Law Enforcement. Last year we all found out that despite being set to high privacy, ALL scripts were still running on every site to assist Law Enforcement. This had been going on for some time. This is why I no longer trust Tor or the people behind the project if they are being ordered to manipulate software and put people at risk.

  323. 14:09 there was another exploit used by security services on Tor users, a very simple one. They were uploading video files with vile titles to specific forums. When people downloaded the video and tried to play it, VLC or Windows Media Player would say, "oh we need a new CODEC" and went off to get it from an IP number. This identified the victim. A very easy way to stop this in VLC was adjusting the config file to tell it to connect to a random IP and port. It was a simple exploit. This is why people were always told not to connect to the Internet when they opened any saved file. The TorProject altered the browser bundle read for Operation Onymous after pressure from police and security services, you might have noticed all scripts were allowed by default and even allowed if you set security to high. This was no error or fault, it was deliberate to help locate a number of Tor users on naughty forums.

  325. This is the problem that the Storeton TV TX had when it first went online. Locals got no signal and it was a big story in the newspapers, but a bit further away it was full strength. It was the wrong type of antenna in use. Once changed to tilt the radiation pattern down correctly, it covered the required areas. It was an example of poor design and understanding of RF. People think RF comes straight out and all around. It doesn't, it can be steered and set at different angles depending what the installation is for. That's why phone masts tilt the radiation pattern down to give a more blanket coverage with a lower range. The same for broadcast stations, you don't want a fancy 6dB colinear with a 30-35degree takeoff , you want a simple aerial like a slim jim, J pole or mixed polarisation dipole that will cover the local area and not win a DX award. Sometimes people will get NO signal or a very low one due to multipath interference, two of the signal arriving at the same time effectively trying to cancel each other out! That can be rectified by moving the aerial, or in some cases fitting two aerials and a splitter and messing with them. I used to have two very long Group C/D aerials pointing at Winter Hill to get OnDigital when it first come out. I tried them phased side by side, then stacked for more gain one above the other etc. To get shut of multipath I spaced them side by side and then moved one aerial back about 2ft and it cured it. I also fitted a masthead preamp to overcome coax losses. There are lots of interesting things you can do with aerials.

  326. I always wanted to run on Medium Wave, but lost interest. I did have a 1 watt oscillator and got a few miles on a long wire, but no way of amplifying the RF. Years later I realise I could have used low cost Audio MOSFETs. I even tried a 6L6G in to two 807 valves, but that was a disaster too.

  333. If it was info they were after, they would go to the host companies, not to the VPN HQ. It is easier to get a warrant for hosting companies. They were after a customer list to link with certain data to prove it was a particular user. GCHQ monitors everything in the UK and hacks everything. You can be certain your data is flowing through their systems right now. VPNs do not stop people being identified, they can still be caught a number of ways. Even on Tor. A classic was those vile people trading pics and videos on forums, they were caught very easily. They opened files when they were connected to the Internet, the files were altered so they fetched extra codecs or caused other programs to ask for updates etc. This action sent a unique serial number and IP to a remote server with the IP number of the user. Other ways included false updates or forums asking you to download an update or allow a permission. GCHQ used a lot of ways when they were working with NSA to find and close sites and users down. It is easier now, so VPNs and Tor do not protect people in any way. Think of it as going to a restaurant by car, then going by bus one night. They would still see you there, just not know how you got there. The same with paying by card, they still see you pay, but not what with.

  334. You should have gone down the M53 to Clatterbridge Hospital. They have a very small licenced 1602KHz AM hospital radio transmitter. It's a box in the car park and a small loaded pole antenna of about 30ft on a post! It does the job across the site and sound quality is really good. It was at the car park were the injections were being given a few years ago...can't remember the name of the building itself.

  336.  @emilyhughes4297  Evidence was not given at the inquest and in Law, the decision is invalid and should be revisited with all the medical information being taken in to account. The Coroner has chosen to keep information to himself to protect the driver's family, but others deserve a true explanation. Why did the driver's family announce to the press that he was suffering a medical problem? DVLA should have revoked his licence until the correct tests were performed, his GP was required by Law to report him to DVLA and his employer should have been informed and made a decision to suspend him until the results of tests and decision by DVLA, something is not right about this. Had the proper procedures been followed, this would not have happened.

  342. It is annoying that who ever was responsible for filming this forgot to tell you which camera was on and filming. It has resulted in you having the sides of your face filmed, so you exclude anyone trying to lipread by this error. You need to look straight at the camera when filming. Fortunately there are no adverts or sponsors showing as people have marked this for blocking already. The production crew might want to move on from thos old fashioned microphones too as they are often blocking what we see. Use the very small comdensor mics and you get the same audio quality - do not use processing software or it sounds over compressed and clips. Loud isn't better, it is just difficult and tiring to listen to, so people switch off.

  343. Well if it was the UK, he would have died by the time it takes to get ambulances to show up. Police often have to take people directly to hospitals. Far too many people, often with a lack of understanding of the UK and not English speaking do not understand what the 999 service is for. On all the TV shows they highlight this and try to advise people. 999 is not a taxi service or for dealing with someone as they can't be bothered to go and see a Doctor or they just want to jump the queue (as has become traditional for some) in the hospital. We still have the usual low intelligence people too that will call 999 or 112 and demand ambulances for cut fingers, headaches, sunburn, a scratch from a cat etc. They should all be prosecuted for misuse of the emergency system.

  349. Stacking beams one on top of the other is for gain, handy for longer distances. You might only get 3dB more, but that is double, so worth it. Putting them side by side tends to be for dealing with reflections, you can slide one beam forwards or backwards to eliminate multipath interference - or it is to tighten the angle of reception but keep the same gain. Think of changing from floodlight to torch beam. I don't think they would use two lots of RX. I used both methods to overcome rubbish signal when Winter Hill was on reduced power as it was being changed to Digital. 2 x 10 element group CD wasn't good enough. 1 with no preamp meant no CH4/5 and breaking up ITV. A preamp got ITV and CH4 was still bad. I tried the 2 x 10 element stacked by the length of the dipole. Then i got 2 x 18 element and that was better. I had an indoor preamp at the time, but you can't amplify something that isn't there. I used a masthead preamp and got a good picture for years. Others were being ripped off, a neighbour paid £250 for this huge aerial and coax and it kept breaking up. They even had one about 6ft long pointing to Wales and that was no good. My TV aerial now is a log periodic with amp on it that's on the pole supporting a washing line in the garden. Perfect signal. It was only temporary after getting shut of VirginMedia for doubling my bill, but it works really well, so i left it,

  355. I might have to mention another system you are probably not aware of that was given the project name "CELLDAR". This was tested in the mid 1990s and a Gov Dept using a company name of Roke Manor Research had various test facilities, including a large stately home. The basic idea was to do something with the reflected waves from high frequency transmissions emitted from cellular phone transmitter sites. The reflected waves built up a 3D model that was fairly crude, but showed anything moving within the space monitored as it interrupted it. It looked more like a waterfall display you see today on a SDR. The early tests showed a blob moving, not even the shape of a person, there was no real definition. The aim at first was to use it for passive aircraft RADAR, but it didn't work due to the frequency and downward tilt on directional aerials. Lower frequencies from broadcast and TV stations could never work. It had to be a short wavelength. It improved to a point of being able to detect people and vehicle shapes and worked in built up areas better. The project was stopped as the results could never be improved upon and would never give the definition required.

  356. It seems odd no one knows who the man was that crashed the car. Police still refuse to name him to public and press and there is no mention of any boyfriend on social media or tributes from his family and friends or comments from the girl's family. It's also a bit odd that an ex footballer would suddenly throw £5K in a fund. Someone with no connection to her and who didn't know her. So what was the name of her boyfriend and what is the name of the dead driver? Was he drunk/drugged as he is meant to have crashed outside the tunnel and failed to stop. All covered by CCTV. Was that with a member of the public or a police vehicle? I can't think of any other reason for trying to cover this up. If it was a member of the public, the police would have said what type of car was involved and shown the CCTV footage of the roundabout incident . Was the car stolen? What made the man accelerate away from one accident and lose control on the bend in the tunnel due to excess and inappropriate speed and/or damage from the first crash? If he had not died, he would be locked up now. Would police still be refusing to name the driver then? Something isn't right about all this refusal to say what led up to the car speeding through the tunnel. The police know, but maybe do not want to tell everyone who the girl might have been associating with.

  357.  @moneytttt1140  The police still refuse to name him. He was using a different identity, probably name too and telling people including the girl he was 23 from Liverpool. UK. The Mother said the boyfriend was a 23year old man who was from Liverpool. Lots of conspiracy theories floating about now as the police said it wasn't a 23 year old man driving when the car crashed, it was someone 4 years older from Manchester. Were two men in the car? Was she in the car with a man she didn't really know? The Inquest Hearing will be heard in Liverpool Coroners Court on 31st January. If the man is not named - we all know it is a cover-up for something. If he has his own Inquest, why are those details not being released? Was it a stolen car being chased? I have never known police to protect someone that has killed and injured people, unless it was another officer. None of this makes any sense.

  359. VirginMoney is just as bad, due to dishonest staff trying to destroy the Brand and company. I had a ISA with VirginMoney that matured in April 2020. I logged on to check the amount and set it to pay out to my nominated account as the ISAs had dropped to 0.001% and I found a saving account for 0.4% which was high back then. Everyone was dumping their ISAs. VirginMoney blanked out the option and would not let me change the bank details, I had changed my current account in January 2020. After many calls and complaints I got a call back from a VirginMoney woman working from home one Saturday morning. She was a scammer! She had gone through accounts and complaints and set me as a target. She had her VirginMoney mobile and computer, plus her own phone and computer at home. She first called on the VM phone and asked me to log in and check my details. I said it was still faulty. 1 hour later I got a call on a random mobile from the same woman at VirginMoney, she asked me to log in and said to prove it was me she was speaking to, i would get a text with a number to give her. Really! What she did was a password reset on my account to generate the authentication code sent to my mobile. Had I read that number out, she would have changed my password, put a new nominated account in after she fixed it, then sent the money abroad and asked me to wait for the system to update in a few hours and try again. By that time, the VirginMoney lines would be closed and my account would show someone logging in after resetting the password with security code to my mobile and clearing the account of funds. Only the initial call would be recorded, not the one on the personal mobile. It was a clever attempted scam I could have fallen for had I not watched JimBrowning11 scam videos. Local police were not interested, VirginMoney said no such thing took place as it was "not recorded" despite the call record on my phone and her home IP logging in etc. VirginMoney has no dedicated fraud line, it is only for credit and debit cards. ActionFraud are muppets and don't investigate unless instructed by paypal or the victims are police, or people considered high profile. It is a few people working in one room.

  361.  @49531  Tor is, it was compromised in 2013 in preparation for Operation Onymous. The download had all the security settings set to low by default when previously they were high and for months when security settings were changed to high, scripts were running on every site to assist law enforcement. I even downloaded a exe from the site that contained a profiler trojan, but tor project ignored complaints. Many exit nodes are compromised. Don't use a VPN, they provide all your data to law enforcement and manipulate it. The reason people use a VPN and Tor is because they connect to a bridge to hide what they are doing. Tor is not secure, not private and you can be uncovered at any time. Remember the DEFCON talk that was going to show how this worked - it was pulled and they went quiet. VPNs might not directly log, but hosts that own equipment have to by law. I recently found WeVPN was a honeypot, they vanished once people realised and the police operation was shut down. One server was on a UK police IP. If you connected in to Manchester, UK, the police were watching. Some say these Encryption In transit email services like Proton are honeypots.

  362. Has anyone watched this video before it was uploaded? You have put a huge old fashioned microphone in front of the camera to block the view of the face of the presenter. Some people lipread and covering the lens to block his face is quite strange. There are lots of videos for beginners on youtube about how to film and how not to cover the camera lens and block the view. There are some about audio production too, those big old microphones from the 1960s are not the thing to use now. Use a PZT or small clip on electret condenser mic and it will not only be unobtrusive, but will give a much better audio quality. That must be a very old studio.

How many UK Homes have locks made to "BS" industry standards that insurance companies insisted on, but were useless. They were opened in seconds. The same for handle mechanisms, all met a required standard, but all insecure.

  364. I'm vegetarian and they ignored me! I am not sure why you think people having disabilities will make any difference to the quality of the product. How would they know and why would they even care to put it bluntly. All they need to do is make some adjustments if a person has a visual impairment or hearing problem for example. That would need to be the account holder who wanted any adjustments.

  365. ProtonMail STILL LIES to customers claiming End2End Encryption. This is not possible with email as there is no standard for encrypted email. All those people that think ProtonMail or ProtonVPN is safe or secure because it is in a country with good privacy Laws are being lied to. Proton can see ALL email in and out before it is encrypted and after it is encrypted.

  368. How do you represent someone that you must know is guilty from the evidence abailable? Don't say you don't know or that it doesn't matter what you think etc - the reason no one believes anyone is guilty is because the longer it goes on the more they are paid. Novel research used to be a good earner, that was all stopped as people used to charge this regularly for things that were not unique or unusual areas of Law. Most people don't know a Barrister can be attending various hearings each day, they could do a 15min bail hearing at 10am, then a mention hearing, then a few plea hearings, maybe start a trial and do a few more bits and pieces...if they are not making any money, they do not appear to have good clerks at chambers. They are not organising the hearings very well. Maybe someone should post a list of fees claimed for the different types of hearings, how long they are allowed for each and how many of each during the day and a week. I know Barristers that were being paid up to £800 per day - QCs were being paid up to £750K a year. I have NO sympathy for people on a good wage, or people trying to mislead the public by stating they only earn £200 a week... That would be payment for 3-4 15min hearings on one day. Maybe the barristers complaining they are not being paid what they feel they deserve should post their true claim details. One very famous barrister used to complain he didn't make enough in a day to cover his cigars. A lot of Barristers sit as part time Judges or Recorders and get paid extra for this. Many Judges own Barristers Chambers as partners with others, so it is in everyones interest to have hearings organised and run a certain way. People running chambers take a cut of the money. Even Clerks working in chambers are being paid £45-60K a year and i really doubt Barristers would work for less than them.

  369. You could certainly apply for licences and put different radio services up like PMR, digital community repeater services, phone relays, point to point microwave services etc. I still can't believe no one living by that mast suffered any health issues as a result of living next to high levels of RF. Even working near a TX or mast, you are only allowed to when power levels are dropped right down and it's only for a set time in each hour of a day for example. Imagine sitting in your house or garden getting 1500Watts minimum transmitted at you all day and night. When there were multiple stations the risk would have been far greater.

  372. You were lucky! My local council did this with their car park being half of the local ASDA car park. The council car park is on the left, Asda on the right, but no clear signs. There are lots and lots of random signs which you can't read easily as you get funnelled through a number of turns and pedestrian crossings! It is far too easy to go in the wrong side and be fined. If you park in the ASDA side, then ask for the receipt and tell them about your parking, they pay for it. It is an overcomplicated procedure. I was once approached by a parking warden as I stopped in a car park to collect an OAP relative. I had stopped for 30s. He said because I had "parked" I was getting a ticket, I pointed out that the engine was still running and as I was in the driver's seat, I was "driving the vehicle, but had stopped, not parked", in Law I am driving the vehicle. He then pointed at the "you must park in the indicated bays only" sign, I said that I would do if I was going to use the car park to park in and leave my car. He looked well confused, muttered something and walked off.

  373. That I really doubt. No one would sit through a case knowing they could not hear or follow what was going on, they would say something and a Judge would order a fix of the system or alternative system or appointment of someone such as a lipspeaker or sign language person. The loop system in a courtroom is via infrared to stop people sitting outside and using devices to listen in. The headphones you would have been given would have been tested each day and batteries charged overnight and faults fixed within a day, there are many alternative items to use and if you HAD said you were unable to hear, the Judge would have simply moved to a new courtroom and tested the equipment again. Most is Sennheisser equipment, so not cheap. If the problem was with your hearing and you did not have any devices to correct it, such as hearing aids, then you would have been asked if you had any special needs well before any hearing and arrangements made. If you could provide no medical evidence of this, then you would be seen as just using this as an excuse to delay proceedings or to try and avoid justice. Defendants WILL use any excuse they can think of, including "I didn't understand", "couldn't hear", "didn't follow" etc etc. Most would not have all their self diagnosed problems if they were found not guilty. If there are genuine needs, they are catered for. People do NOT lose a case because of a GENUINE disability or medical condition, everyone is given fair and full access to justice, often at great expense to the public to allow that person to be treated fairly. I don't actually believe a word of what you say.

We had secure wards for locking people away for public protection at one stage, now it has gone, people like that live amongst us causing all sorts of problems and are a drain on resources and affect everyone elses mental health !

Good on Julia for trying to set her straight, but she will not get far as she is not medically trained.

  375. It would be possible to use it for RX, but due to public safety not on TX. There would be issues with joins in lines, breakages, constant impedance changes etc. What you might like to look at is how HV electrical cables were used as VLF aerials. All those pylons... Many things are "hidden in plain sight". Some fields have miles and miles of fences, trying measuring for RF on them with a frequency counter etc.

  378. It depends what he means by monitoring. RF or Internet? Internet is monitored at every DataCentre, connections in and out of the UK and Internet exchange centres. RF monitoring is via the existing network of SDRs that are in nearly every BT phone exchange and have been since the early 1990s. They can mess with WiFi through them, but OFCOM also uses the various monitoring stations for Spectrum Compliance. He probably doesn't tell you what he does as he doesn't want you telling everyone on the Internet.

  379.  @micoxlong5817  That depends on what they were and if DVLA and GPs said he was fit or unfit to drive. He must have been passed as fit during a medical as no company would employ someone without the correct documentation. They would be prosecuted, the GP would also be investigated. If the company used an employment agency, it was for both to complete medical and criminal record checks. It's not good enough to say someone else checked. Think about how many less abled people are allowed to drive, by their own admission on benefit forms and for motability finance cars. They could have medical problems and restricted movement for example - should they be stopped if they can not be in the same control as a more abled person? Exactly what is the standard? The inquest will give these details and if it is found that companies did not check, they will be prosecuted. It looks like an unfortunate accident. Perfectly fit and healthy people can have a heart attack. I saw this on the Air Ambulance TV show, one of the crew just slid off a chair and they had to shock him. We should avoid blame until we know more. The police will do their usual drip-feeding and cause speculation and rumours. Take time to think about the victims including the driver and the families and friends.

  383. Why would you want everyone to see that? To show a relative was a drug user and drove a car under the influence and killed someone... It will not change anything, most people are NOT like this, so the message, if there is one, will only apply to similar types of people that have no respect for others or the Law. Showing videos of motorbike crashes still doesn't stop teenagers from questionable backgrounds going out on them uninsured and crashing causing injuries. The speed awareness courses don't stop people that got caught speeding either. No one really alters their behaviour because of what some random person did.

  384. More like prisoners, they do not get searched on the way in to cells if they have left a police station or prison. Custody staff choose to put themselves, colleagues and others at risk by not searching people going in to court custody areas. Staff also drive home under the influence of cannabis from most custody areas as prisoners smoke it - many seem to be allowed to keep them quiet in the day. Fire alarms always go off, but there is a delay of 5mins from detection on two or more sensors one after the other or more than one at any one time before the main alarm sounds. It's all covered up by falsifying reports and taking no action. HSE know about this and don't act. Some cells complexes were caught deactivating and even covering the smoke and heat sensors with rubber gloves or the plastic containers they were packaged in before installation.

  390. A lot of them want to beg for money for drugs, nothing else, they have homes and shelters to live in. It is correct that it is a lifestyle choice for the people we see littering the streets. They went home during lockdown, because you state clearly and must have evidence that they did not accept any help - so they only had one option and that was to GO HOME ! Stop falling for con artists and liars, that's what substance misusers do to get what they want, they lie. Maybe there is just a group of society that is gullible and will fall for anything - any old scam going like the FakeHomeless Scam.

  391. They probably took a risk and didn't get cover, hoping that customers would make their own claims. The problem is, customers might NOT be covered for this on their car insurance policies. The wording is very specific about where the car is to be stored when not in use, with minor exceptions, also what is covered - I don't think flooding at a location that is not a home address is one of them, especially a high risk area as shown in reports. The car insurance policy doesn't extend to provide cover for a business you use against loss, theft or damage whilst the vehicle is in their care. They need to be insured on their own policy. Flooding has also been categorised as "Act of God" to assist car insurers with not honouring policies, especially if it has not happened before. If the potential problem was known about or there was a history of flooding, insurance companies would not provide cover for a business unless it was incredibly expensive. I know the trouble after a broken drain in a road! We had to get reports to prove united utilities had repaired it and the cost was higher because one person claimed for damage to a wall/garden. We got a £25 cheque for a week of disruption.

  392. It depends on the aerial. If you only want local coverage, a single aerial with medium to high angle radiation pattern will cover the locals if it is low down. If it was high up, a downward tilt or something like a Slim Jim or J pole would be better to give a blanket coverage and not get too far. No need for higher gain aerials there.

  393. The post-mortem did not suggest this and no cause of death was given at the inquest - it was an incomplete investigation. What is a concern is the family knew and announced the driver was having medical issues but still chose to put all those children at risk. It is lucky many more were not killed by the driver.

  395. That does not always help, it depends on who does the audit. One or two VPNs had audits and were not answering the questions asked, more like the ones they wanted to be asked so a different answer was given. This deflected away from the real issues they had. They ALL log data in order to control connections and limits, also billing. If they don't, the hosting companies are forced to do traffic inspection and logging for law enforcement. In the UK all VPN data is collected and stored if it goes through any equipment inside the UK.

  402. email goes in plain text after it is decoded to leave the server and go on to the recipient server. So you get it right, from your system to the email service it goes encrypted, then it gets decrypted before forwarding on to a different ISP or email service. When your email from another person arrives, it is in plain text, it gets encrypted and sent to you. All law enforcement does is monitor the input and output of ProtonMail as it is all in clear text. ProtonMail also refuses to release some code relating to this, lying about how people would work out how they scammed all your emails for spam for example. So they scan and collect and manipulate data when it is in the clear. They are correct that they can not read your email AFTER it is encrypted, but they can when it is decrypted! It is a play on words, vague language is used in order to confuse and try and suggest a different meaning was intended. It is the next EncroChat, you will see once the investigation is made public.

  409. 04:55 communications are already encrypted between browser and sites and Apps and sites. What do you think HTTPS is ! A VPN is a waste of time, it protects no one from anything. GCHQ and NSA are inside every ISP and DataCentre anyway, so if it is in the UK, they are collecting your data BY LAW. 09:59 completely agree, I used to use HONEY and realised the T&Cs meant they could intercept all my browser data and redirect it! The problem with going to google and searching for a voucher or discount code is the thousands of scam sites offering links and "click to allow script" or "click and download to show", but really amount to nothing, people end up with malware. The biggest problem is desperate youtubers who want to make money and scam their users by advertising loads of products that are of no use, like VPNs. They are all happy taking a 40% cut as affiliates.
    1
  410. In the UK most VPNs are nothing more than a proxy server in a datacenter. They ALL have to hand over information and are all forced by Law to log everything too. If your traffic goes through ANY equipment in the UK you are in trouble. PIA had to remove physical UK servers a few years ago and operate the UK side of things from Amsterdam. This still meant all traffic through UK equipment was logged and stored, but servers were not as easy to get hold of.

  411. I don't agree with no comment or prepared statements unless you know the client is guilty. Or they have enough evidence to suggest it. Imagine being arrested and accused of attacking someone and saying no comment on the advice of a duty solicitor because he/she wants to get back home, when you could prove you were at work or in a location elsewhere. Why do so many solicitors give the wrong advice? The legal system is all theatre. It has barristers sitting as judges, people acting for prosecution and defence, people doing deals, dropping cases after using them to earn repeat fees, structuring attendances to make as much as possible etc. The best is a hearing to decide another hearing date. This is why graduated fees and standard fees were all changed, it stops a lot of scamming of the taxpayer. There are very rare cases of private payers and they don't get delayed or messed about with adjournments. Many cases are mis-managed and barristers are notorious for not keeping clerks informed. Chambers are also owned and run by judges and barristers who sit as recorders, so is it true justice when everyone discusses cases and how they might go?

  413. The main problem is Government Ministers are owners of companies and have relatives that own companies. All you need to do is set up a promotion company and go Worldwide to sell the UK. That causes people to want to start a new life on various promises. The RNLI provides a taxi service whilst putting genuine people at risk, then hotels are bought, properties bought, companies set up to manage properties, healthcare and catering and people are brought to fill the hotels because the Bill is being paid. The more people, the bigger the bill, the more money being made by Government Ministers and relatives and those going to encourage people to come to the UK. There is no way those making money will stop it now. It beats scamming the public with face masks and gloves to earn £Billions. We had all this with the prison escort contracts being awarded to certain people years ago, then we had contracts for IT being handed out. People are on the take everywhere. Local councils are just as bad. The one thing illegal immigrants all say is, "this is not what we were promised". They are not allowed to speak to reporters either, the illegal immigrants employed as security stop them - inbetween working illegally as food delivery people paying to be substitutes.

  414. He has nothing to apologise for. He is a fairly intelligent man, knows the House rules and would not go breaking them. It must be difficult for the family still suffering, but doing this is not going to make them feel better - they should know they have the support of the whole of the UK over the murder, probably far more World Wide, people are right behind them. Trying to start campaigns or hijack things or think everything said is about them, or an insult to others is concerning. I can see there is a lot of anger when a person is murdered, but that destroys people unless they can make the person live on through more positive thoughts and actions. Talk about the person more. Don't allow news sites and campaign groups to use the name for their own purposes either. In a manslaughter case a few years ago, the wife of a victim wanted revenge and enjoyed seeing people that were not even responsible locked away under Joint Enterprise Laws...all because it made her feel better. Then it was campaigns, probably a youth club, a charity set up etc... You can't always have this "I am going to ruin everyone elses life because mine was ruined" type attitude. It really does make people very ill. Let people know about the brilliant life a person had with their family.

  415.  @TheChaoticWolf  Why should they be fine? There are SO many experts that have no clue how things work. people just add random generalised comments and hope no one will question why they have put something. RAM discs on servers can still be running malware and doing things to traffic, especially if they are in a datacenter. How do you think police compromise servers? One VPN that was compromised and using servers run from a police station in the UK was using RAM...for about a year. Users had no idea it had been taken over until it shut down a few months ago.

  432. If you go around any large City and speak to the charities that deal with the people on a daily basis they will explain it clearly to you. Think about where all those fake homeless people went during lockdown...they went home. Most businesses and councils offer places and say there is no reason for a second night on the streets, but people refuse this help as they are fakes and frauds. The people you see on the streets are not homeless, the charities know them and know where they are living and about their substance misuse problems. For most of them it is a lifestyle choice, they leave the YMCA hostel in the morning, get their drugs, sit about begging all day and go back at night. Some will even abuse charities by getting free meals and anything else they can. Most have places in hostels and are sadly under the control of criminal gangs. If you give the people money or help them stay on the streets YOU are the problem, you are helping to put them in danger. I used to get the train in to a City Centre and a few people would get on with their full kit and dog and set up outside the railway station, they used to fight with others over who had which place. They changed around midday and went home at night. The Chief Constable was on a phone-in and said he knew the criminal gangs controlled people and they did nothing. The gangs will send people out to beg for money all day and in return will supply crack and heroin. If you have evidence of charities NOT spending donations on what they claim, let's all hear it. Name the charities that are not helping people and give them a right to reply. They will provide proof of who they repeatedly offer help to and who refuses it because they are FakeHomeless and choose to lead that drug fuelled lifestyle.

  434. That's not the only thing they were getting up to! I attended various trade shows and security events and still meet vendors who like to boast about who their customers are. Merseyside is a very big customer of companies that sell surveillance equipment. They have spent millions. Security Services used to have two floors in the OLD HQ building. They have bought and used quite a few IMSI catchers, illegally, at demonstrations and gatherings to gather your info and also parked up with them by houses of interest to monitor mobile calls - yes, digital and encrypted. They don't do things by the book, and also spent a lot on Cellebrite software to get in to your phone if you are taken in. Other software is general inspection like EnCase. They also like the database one i have forgotten the name of, it plots cell sites, who called who, who must know who and takes feeds from other systems. They love buying night vision cameras, drones with night vision & IR, they also use cameras to "look through" walls to see where occupants of buildings are and leave the odd car or van on various streets. One they got caught out with was an Iceland home delivery van just parked up. As if no one would notice. Welcome to the World of Surveillance. Most people never give things like this a second thought, if they see an aerial or camera, or people snooping about.

  435. It depends on who is stealing it. If it is a car someone just wants to use to get home in, they will go for the older car that is easier to take based on having minimal tools. If it is a high value one being used for parts to fix something bought at copart auctions or to be put on ebay, they will go for high value cars.

  436. In the 90s they might, but all my cars have had the radio aerials in the rear window or actually as part of the heater element in earlier ones. My current one has two elements above the heated window for DAB and one for VHF, both horizontal which is annoying. I have to be careful with choice of car camera or it generates enough RF to knock the radio off! The Blackview doesn't as it links the front and rear cameras with coax and cases are screened. I don't like tilted aerials, it is not that much more expensive to fit two beams or get a circular polarised aerial. That can be as simple as the type Juice FM/Capital in Liverpool had on the cathedral, it was a dipole that bent around in a square shape to give horizontal and vertical. No idea on the make. That is more efficient, but needs the power doubling to it in order to provide the same as what it would be on a single antenna because of the -2.5dB gain. Maybe that's why so many use the lazy method of putting the aerials at 45degrees. The other problem with this is loss, cross polarisation loss is 20dB or more, so with the tilted one, you're always going to have a 10dB loss between your vertical and horizontal and a slanted aerial. I would always go for two aerials and give vertical and horizontal and turn the power up a bit, depending on the licence! Dipoles could be spaced from the pole to use it as a reflector too.

I watched what you are advertising through affiliate schemes and looked at the product. It is no good for stopping scams via phone and only applies to USA as we do things very differently in the UK. Please don't go the same way as other ScamBusters that have started affiliate marketing for VPNs! They're the biggest privacy risk ever, glorified proxy servers in shared datacenters that log all your data, then sell it to people including scammers. You will lose your credibility instantly if you advertise products that only give a false sense of security. That company would not have protected anyone in any of your videos and you know this. I thought you were better than that Jim.

  442. Centrifugal force does not apply to what you are trying to describe, it is the thing that will help keep your balancing weights on inside the wheel. The shape of the tyre changes as it rotates and is in contact with the road. The more air pressure the slightly less the shape will change as it is in contact with the road - you wouldn't notice. It depends what damaged your sidewall. Was it a worn tyre with a bulge in it, or did you go over something to cause the damage? If you go over something or the tyre bursts, it depends on many factors how fast it will deflate. I had a rear left tyre burst at 110mph and it just felt like the car was going over a cattle grid, when i stopped the tyre was flat.

  445. You will hate the poor quality of DABradio then, it's revolting. I remember years ago getting my first DABradio home and thinking it was going to be brilliant after watching all the TV adverts. What a disappointment to find stations in MONO at 32 and 64Kbps. Some were 192Kbps and a dance station was 128Kbps, but the more that appeared, the more the quality was ruined. Now DAB is in a right state. It is the same adverts being played on every station, but with a few different tunes and jingles for different station names. No one listens to DAB. Even in my cars since 2012 having DABradio is nothing special, it has ALWAYS sounded rubbish, with one exception of KISS FM until that got a lower quality and is now worse than AM radio. It should have been put between 68-88MHz too, a very unused band, but with a really good coverage, especially mobile, compared to up around 200MHz. Badly thought out, terrible audio quality and do you remember that stupid advertising company that did radio and car adverts aimed at "old" people? They put a nice new modern radio in an old case to try and appeal to pensioners, or people with certain conditions that only remembered older style radios, then tried similar with cars - completely bizarre. DAB is a waste of time, I would prefer AM radio quality in the car.

  451. It sounds odd that you would train AI, it should be able to train itself ! MASC only relied on the KEY, so changing the key would eventually reveal the transmission. Don't be too concerned, GCHQ can still locate and kill the radios if you use them. Every BT phone exchange has SDR equipment that was fitted in the early 1990s and upgraded over the years. Apart from helping monitor the spectrum in each area for OFCOM (who can connect in), identify and locate transmissions, it was also used to mess about with WiFi as it started becoming popular. The cover story in the press if you find it was that the equipment would help locate WiFi with poor or no passwords and help users tighten them up!!! What they meant was - someone found the GCHQ network of SDRs and reported it, the official comment had to be something like this to stop the public knowing what went on. My local BT Exchange still has aerials up and SDRs for this monitoring and messing about, plus it can block signals in certain areas. MASC developed in to the TETRA system we have today. I fitted many boards, repaired them with radios and installed entire systems in the 90s. MASC was good against hobbyists with scanners, but criminals were able to "obtain" codes and input them on radios that had IDs disabled and the lockout and stun feature disabled. People that paid enough still got access.

  453. The Police investigation ruled out mechanical failure, distraction from phones etc and interaction with other vehicles just before the coach left the road. A number of lines of enquiry would be followed to study the driving before the crash - using the vehicle data to recreate the journey and show the position of all controls. The coach camera system would be viewed too. The police would have requested blood samples from the hospital for testing for drink and drugs, but nothing was found as no evidence of drink or legal or illegal drugs that could have impaired driving were found as there was no evidence produced to the Coroner at the Inquest. The postmortem failed to find any existing medical conditions as none were presented to the Coroner as evidence in the Inquest. GP records would be requested to look at the mental health of the driver, but nothing of interest was presented as evidence to the Coroner for the Inquest hearing. The family claimed the driver had suffered from some sort of medical condition at the time of the accident, but were told not to talk to the press and did not elaborate on what they thought it was. The postmortem found nothing. This could lead to two possibilities, a mental health condition - but the GP records did not show this, or he simply fell asleep as he was tired. This is looking like a more likely explanation in the absence of ANY medical findings. If he had medical problems he would have been prevented from driving anyway, so I can see why the Coroner is trying to protect families involved, but it is not correct to do this and withhold information.

  454. At that point they had not been found guilty of anything, even if the police knew who had committed different offences. In any investigation you get parasite solicitors (that know their clients are guilty) trying to get them off on technicalities. The police do things a certain way when it suits, or is in the public interest, to make sure everything is correct. If that means following procedures, then that is what they do to secure a conviction.

  455. And that coincides with when police at custody suites stopped recording ethnicity details AS REQUIRED by UK HOME OFFICE. They were scared of saying which groups commit certain crimes in which areas. Why would they be scared? Now all the police record, if forced is W/W1 or N/NS for not stated. Maybe if they had not been scared, we could have put the police resources where they were needed and dealt with the people concerned, now the UK is a mess. I can also self declare I am Welsh and Green with orange strips if I want, the police will not correct it. They are a huge cause of the problems we see in society now. Over the years to boost funding they had various classifications to fit with what story the Government wanted to promote. It started with Knife Crime, Gun Crime, Domestic Violence (defined as a man abusing a women ONLY) and then Coercive Control (Man as the offender, woman as the victim ONLY). Every person they got in to a custody suite would be put in a group if they could manage to fit the definition or description to them. It's been one massive con to hide what has been going on. They don't want to recognise the problem. You might also ask where £Millions confiscated from Proceeds Of Crime goes each year. That's a whole different story.

  456. How do you know the VPN will not compile a profile of your data and sell it all? Most of them do this and customers have no idea. They think a VPN adds security and anonymity when it doesn't, you can't even trust Tor to give anonymity. They had to re-brand and replace the word anonymity with privacy after it was evident that it had been compromised with backdoors and tracing via traffic staining going back to 2014.

  457. She wants to encourage the FakeHomeless to GO HOME as they did during Lockdown. The reason FakeHomeless people stay on the streets is because stupid people give them money to buy drugs which encourages criminal activity, increases the demand and supply of drugs in to areas and helps to kill them. Are you one of those idiots that facilitates the commission of criminal offences because some junkie lies and says they used to be a soldier or don't have anywhere to live? Many of the drug addicts that are good at playing Fake Homeless have lost legs and arms because of their drug use, not because they were ex-forces or injured. How stupid are you all.

  468. Correct, they caught nosey people. I remember listening to police on 100mhz on a clock radio when I was younger. We even had a car radio that covered it. It was AM, but still clear enough and all the car chases were on there, with the old Burndept radios on 451MHz. In the late 1988 I got a Pro-34 from Tandy for 249.99, still got it now in a box. That was for phones and police really, that's why people got them. Police wouldn't be too interested if you were a radio amateur in those days as you had an excuse to have a scanner. I also had a Kenwood TH42e in the 90s and a lot of amateur equipment was capable of being modified easily for different countries. Most amateurs would do a wide band RX and TX mod... It was around 2002 everything went digital around here, so scanner sales dropped. Now, unless you know people, you can not get a radio in test mode on the network or go near Airwave. Criminals get their info direct anyway, so don't need radios.

All those measures are in place to combat the FakeHomeless we see everywhere now, littered about under cash machines, in Tesco doorways, at railway stations and in some City Centres they approach people begging for money to give to their dealer to stop them getting a beating.

There is no point saying a friend told me, or someone working in a company told me - it is a way people spread inaccurate information like urban legends. Cars were tracked using programs like OnSTAR, other manufacturers have systems built in that can easily shut off stolen cars, remotely control and monitor them etc. OnStar was used to record in car audio of criminals and provide their location! It's nothing new.

  476. In the UK, all VPNs and Datacenter operators have to provide access to Data in and out by Law. The other thing is that if NordVPN was going to ignore the Laws, they would not be adding VAT on to UK purchases. Do they even pass it on to HMRC as there is NO NEED if they are in a Lawless Country. Why would they suddenly be complying with HMRC and collecting UK Taxes on their behalf? That makes me think they also have to go along with access to Data if they want to stay in the UK Datacenters. I remember PIA having a problem with that and dumped the UK, they had servers in Amsterdam for UK people. There is nothing worse than some desperate for money youtubers advertising a VPN and telling various lies about why you need a VPN. 99% of people do not need a VPN and don't benefit in any way. All they do is access your Data you allow them to, profile you via payment method and then sell that data to others.

  478. It's not even a very good site due to local hills completely blocking it to large areas. Maybe that's why it was chosen! It covers parts of Liverpool, Wales and Chester, and some parts of Wirral, but there are problems with the other side of the Bidston and Oxton Ridges, hundreds of feet ASL that block all coverage beyond them. I remember the news reports of when the TV transmitter was first switched on and locals were complaining they couldn't receive it. It was later found to be the type of aerials used that were firing the RF upwards and over local areas. Once it was all corrected it was fine. The radio stations that use it don't get out to Wirral or Liverpool too well because of the hills.

  479. I see the Just Stop Oil protestors as a large group of vulnerable people that are being coercively controlled and manipulated by a few people for their own gain. If you look at the average profiles, you have people with mental health or learning issues, people that do not want to work, people that could never be employed, bored pensioners, students that are not doing so well and need a way out of their courses etc. They are targeted and then manipulated and coercively controlled. Why is the organiser not prosecuted for being responsible for what many see as a terrorist organisation? If I was to encourage people to commit criminal acts, I would also be held liable. So who is funding Just Stop Oil and what is in it for Government Ministers? We have already seen they are in bed with Serco and use RNLI as a chartered boat service to fill up hotels and get paid. Has anyone investigated Just Stop Oil? I remember in the 70s we were told oil and gas would run out, then we had some nonsense about the ozone layer, then it was something about icebergs melting, then we moved on to removing natural ingredients from food so manufacturers could save money and tell fat people it wasn't their fault for over-eating and not doing any exercise... Now we are being told more rubbish, as that is all it is. The younger people drawn in to cults like this don't research and don't remember all previous lies. Older people are in such a state they don't remember what day it is. What a sad time we are living in,

  481. Another interesting point is that BEFORE 02-Airwave as it was know, there were tests as far back as 1991 with a UK wide analogue system. I remember listening to tests were officers in the North West were "patched through" to officers in the Midlands. From 451MHz to whatever the other frequency was and I was able to hear both sides as it was a talkthrough conversation. This was experimented with for a while and trunking was meant to have been introduced across the UK, but funding stopped it. It was put on hold and encryption was used on radios that needed it and officers were using more and more mobile phones to take jobs and do checks so the public didn't hear. The pans to expand the national linked analogue system just fell apart, then we got TETRA. I think this was after the system called Dolphin Tetra set up throughout the UK and people got really interested in what it could do. I had a Dolphin TETRA handheld radio that worked on what is now DABradio frequencies, known as Band 3 back in 1994. That system allowed me to call a colleague anywhere in the country. It was brilliant, well ahead of Community Repeaters that were all still analogue. Mobile phones did kill off the PMR business!

  483. A VPN does NOT keep anything secure, they are registered in countries with no data protection laws. People can pay a VPN for your information, steer traffic to sites paying the most and make you far less secure than if you just use your own ISP that does need to follow strict laws. As for not logging data, the company might not, but the people they rent the rack space or servers from DO monitor everything. If your data is going via a VPN over any equipment in US or UK, it is LOGGED BY LAW and stored. The VPNs are correct "they" never log anything. Who do you trust more? Your ISP that complies with strict Laws, or a company of unknown people in an unknown location with no legal controls that has FULL ACCESS to all your encrypted data and a root certificate on your computer and phone to do with it what they please. Some VPNs will re-purpose connections of home users to redirect people wanting TV or film services so it comes from a real address, not the VPN one. I know it's tempting to push a service to get a month free here or there, but would you pay a company and give them access to all your personal information? No one even uses public WiFi now, they use phone data.

  484. Please get a pole to put the camera on and it will stop you putting your hands over the lens and waving them about. It ruins the video and you have only recently started to do this. I know other youtube people started doing it to be "different", but it means your hands are over the lens blocking what you are filming. It is as bad as when people play loud music all over videos! It adds NO value to the video production. People prefer plain and simple and packed with facts, we couldn't care less which youtube filming course people were scammed in to buying and how they all want their videos to look the same, or how many video or audio effects you can pack in to a video. If there is ONE car you are filming, there is no need to point at it as you describe it, we know it is what you are talking about as YOU are filming it! Don't fall in to the trap of making your videos look rubbish as others have a laugh at them.

  485. Please be aware, carvertical DOES NOT check that the registration and VIN are fitted to the correct vehicle, they only provide a history of the numbers, NOT the vehicle you are looking at. You need a company that can send someone out to examine the vehicle to make sure it is not a stolen, cloned or crash damaged piece of junk from copart for example, then do the check on the background and cross reference it to the paperwork the seller has - also make sure they are the owner. People think if they just go on an App and check a plate, it is fine, but the carvertical and others T&Cs will state clearly that they only check the background of the numbers provided, not that those numbers belong to the vehicle it is displayed on. They will also not be held responsible if the numbers are not on the correct car!

They only exist as police are corrupt and IT companies facilitate the commission of criminal offences and will not block scammers traffic to the UK.

  493. The RADAR isn't used now, I remember always seeing that rotating many years ago when I went past. I just didn't know who was seeing the feed from it. Some coastguard aerials used to be on the Liverpool Cathedral together with the aerial farm for PMR, Taxis, utility companies and the current JUICE FM or whatever it is called now on 107.6MHz. There is a transmitter room up there too which is interesting if you get a look inside. It tends to be locked up more now after a Liverpool Solicitor was said to have hidden until after closing time and jumped off the roof. That story was in the national and local press too. Some say it was because of who he was mixed up with and it might not have been what it appeared to be. If you are in Liverpool, go for a tower tour of the cathedral and have a look at the aerials! Take your Meshtastic nodes up there.

  496.  @ConquerDriving  My last 3 cars all had Normal/Comfort, ECO and full load. Petrol and diesels. ECO was 39psi, comfort/normal (up to 3 people) was 33psi and full load was about 44psi. Nothing about 4/5 people and full load. When i picked the cars up from new they all had 39psi, each time i lowered it to 33psi the garage put it back to 39psi stating tyres were underinflated on the service! 33psi is OK, I used to get 55mpg in a diesel in town, but with a petrol get 33mpg, so very disappointing. The diesel went because the DPF kept blocking despite motorway runs (after 10,000miles) and the dealership set the car to regenerate every 300miles which caused more errors and wasted fuel, also caused more servicing and replacement of glowplugs etc. 39PSI does make the petrol car "bounce" and I every bump and lines on the road, it also feels better cornering at speed - but I never drive it to that extent, it can also mean more suspension damage over uneven roads with holes in as the tyre can't flex and absorb some impact, so you get a harsh thud. At 39psi it is more likely to just burst compared to 33psi. There is NO difference to fuel economy between 33psi and 39psi in any petrol or diesel i have driven over the last 15years. I still get the same readings. That is with different sized tyres on the cars. The only safety difference is that 39PSI can prevent aquaplaning as experienced on motorways, this is due to less of the tyre being in contact with the road. If you run through standing water with 33PSI that tyre works so hard to displace all the water and can't. 39PSI alters the shape and contact and is more effective. Try it in heavy rain.

  497. All the parking tickets or permits I have seen clearly state, as do disabled badges, "this must be positioned clearly the correct way up in the windscreen and be clearly visible". What would you have done if they said that although you had the permit showing on the seat, it was not as required, "on the dashboard" . I had an encounter with a Council contracted parking enforcement person that issued a ticket to a vehicle that was parked on Crown Property! The parking enforcement person had no right to come on to the property and was removed as soon as he was noticed by Security Staff and Armed Police Officers. He then called the police to report Security and the officers in attendance who said it was not public property, or public land, it was indeed Crown Property and private. Access was restricted and he was breaking various Laws by being on the property and not leaving on the instruction of armed officers. His argument was that I had crossed a paved public area to access the parking area via automatic bollards and he did not think I should be allowed to do. There were NO notices stating access was not allowed or that people with pre-arranged permission to have the bollards lower on approach were not allowed to cross a 30ft pedestrian area to reach the Crown Property Land in a vehicle. The police did try explaining this to him, but he persisted and I had to appeal it. My first letter was rejected, I actually had to obtain various letters stating the vehicle I was in was registered with the Council to lower the bollards, prove I was contracted to work at that time, pay for plans of the area from HM Land Registry and submit this all with photos and old photos from Google Earth showing there are NO signs restricting access to anyone, or any vehicle at any time. This took months to resolve and finally the Council cancelled the parking fine and said their decision, although based on the evidence I had provided and that of their own Council Staff, plus HM Land Registry, set no precedent and they would continue to ticket vehicles on this land - in the full knowledge they have no right to do so. They don't own it, have no permission to be on it and anyone going on to it can be prosecuted as it is a restricted area. I think it was 4 months from the date of the fine that I had my letter stating it was cancelled. I provided all the evidence within 2 days and it was ignored. The Council couldn't understand they didn't own every piece of Land or road and were not aware of how the bollards operated, who was able to use them for work purposes and which land their contracted staff should avoid.

  503. I would not use or recommend K&N. They refused to honour the warranty for damage caused to a MAF sensor from oil proved to be from their product over it. The air filter I used reduced performance, but you could hear the air being restricted through it. Stick to paper elements that are 13 times the surface area, pass far more filtered air than the car needs and doesn't block up in months and degrade performance. On s rolling road, testing cars of all types from the 80s, not one was any better with a K&N. I paid for the products as I refused to be paid and sent a script to read out. I tried many makes including pipercross. No increase in performance, but the foam sagged. One thing in common with all oil and mesh filters is how small the surface area is and how holes need to be 13 times bigger to flow the same amount of air as a paper filter, it means dirt and dust goes through as it doesn't meet manufacturers tolerances.

  505. They're all scared, they have to go along with everyone else. Look at the "anti-slavery" stuff we had recently, out of nowhere, companies were putting these big meaningless statements out and on their sites - no one reads them. It was just because they were scared of "not conforming" or being told they would be labelled. People want to keep their jobs so agree. Companies, UK GOV and NHS are being coercively controlled as a social experiment. If you go on a few web sites, people have competitions about what they can get people to do next. We had all the LGB stuff, we had the anti-slavery, what will it be next? How about we all think of something completely silly and start campaigning or shaming companies, GOV UK, NHS in to adopting a policy, making statements, paying a lot of money for courses and training and then employment of staff to deal with the new policies... This is exactly what has been happening. It's also happened with the 20MPH speed limits. Local councils were all afraid and joined in, now we have a new national speed limit of 20MPH. Most accidents and people killed on roads and pavements are under 20MPH if you look at the unmanipulated stats, just as most are in car parks, by traffic lights, within 30ft of crossings people refuse to use and are often elderly or impaired people. It would have been cheaper to keep teaching people about personal responsibility for their own safety and warning what happens when they don't use crossings or walk out in front of vehicles in some arrogant kind of way thinking they will stop. This nonsense even resulted in a change to the Highway Code! You don't need to be responsible as you're a victim and you can claim compensation if you cause your own accident and injuries by choice.

Very popular, it's just odd the way people want to lie and pass these stories off as their own and claim they were involved.

  510. We need some sort of investigation in to these protest groups as all they seem to do is practice coercive control. It is used on the weakest and most vulnerable members of society, often those suffering rotten life syndrome, retired people, pensioners, unemployed that refuse to work and students incapable of finishing a simple course. The groups seek out new victims and coercively control them. One group leader even did a degree based on how he controlled people and made them protest, then sat back having a laugh about how stupid they all are. It was all about how to influence and control people and they all fell for it. It's the shame factor stopping victims of protest groups speaking out - similar to people that have been conned, they will either say nothing or somehow endorse what happened and say it's OK really to avoid everyone knowing they were stupid. So how do we protect people from being coercively controlled? We have Laws to stop this being used in relationships, could it be expanded to include a relationship between a protest group and a member.

  512. It is on most VPNs, they ALL log your connection and device ID in order to control the connection to the service and billing. So they know which phones and PCs are associated with your account and the IP numbers used by your account. How do people think they control the "5 connections" business. That might only be stored for a short time, but it is enough to link someone to a crime if they were so minded. Most equipment is rented in datacenters, so the VPN company has no real control over the law enforcement in that country. In the UK the VPN companies have no way of stopping the host inspecting and storing all VPN data, and it will not be encrypted when they do that. It's a big word game, companies are good at telling you what you want to hear to get a sale. Like those awful affiliate channels. One was advertising WeVPN to get commission, they never paid him as it was probably a front for law enforcement. The company shut down a few months ago, once the experiment was over! A 2 year funded experiment to collect all the data and see what people were up to. What you will find soon is that the next Encrochat scandal will be a VPN company being compromised and a lot of people in a panic.

  515. The loss on the coax is too great, most of the signal will be lost unless you have LMR400 or Heliax. You could get a plastic box and put the PCB in , then use a very short piece of coax and a long USB lead to power it. You would be better off getting a 2inch wide piece of plastic pipe, sticking the board and a 868MHz aerial inside at the top under an end cap, then running a thick USB cable down to power it, or use a thick power lead joined on to a USB plug. Forget the discone, it's not a very good design of antenna. You are better using a dedicated 868MHz antenna. If you are high enough, look at the plans for a Slim Jim and scaled them for 868MHz, make it from a piece of copper wire and connect it to a pigtail and use this inside the pipe with the circuit board. This gives a much better local coverage than those fake "high gain" colinears on sale. I used a SJ on 1090MHz and it was only about 18cm long and 1cm wide. Get experimenting. With LoRa there is no advantage with high gain aerials as they have a much higher angle of radiation, so useless for local blanket coverage compared to the Slim Jim.

  518. The UK Government lied to us to boost the sale of diesel vehicles with added premiums. I bought one years ago because of the huge MPG, torque, plus low tax. Now I am stuck with petrol and pay 5x the road tax and have much higher CO2 output. Anyway, what about the TYRE PRESSURE ? My cars have always had one for 3 people, one for 5 people with extra load and one called "ECO", but they did not state what they meant by ECO. I had 33PSI "comfort" and 39PIS "ECO". It was supplied with 39PSI and bounced, plus found every bump in the road. I dropped it down to 33PSI and the car is better although steering slightly heavier. There is NO difference to fuel economy between 33PSI and 39PSI. The car is no faster, it just has less grip and can spin the front tyres with little pressure on the accelerator. In SPORT mode with 39PSI it is almost impossible to drive, it just ruins the tyres and in some conditions cuts the power completely.

It will make them really ill trying to take out their anger on others for any little thing. Move on by celebrating the person, not having a go at others. It's similar to the call for imposing their views on everyone else and trying to change the phone and IT industry. There is no need for different phones to be made, it just needs more responsible parents to check them often and use the technology we have had for many years for blocking and controlling use.

  530. You need to explain MORE about this no win no fee type arrangement. Some claims companies ask customers to pay for an insurance policy in case they lose the case - you then pay them from the insurance policy. The one advertised here takes up to 50% of any damages, which means you will get around £1000 if they win. If you lose then who knows what you will pay because they will not send me the terms and conditions and make a point of trying to shift responsibility for you not getting your money unless you stick to the conditions! It is not very clear what they mean by this how how much it will cost if they lose. There is no one to email and no one will answer questions.

  536. From whistleblowers, they work on a bonus scheme and have to meet targets for customer retention and sales. They will suddenly have very low audio so you give up and call back, which means they get away with it, or suddenly make it difficult to understand them so you give up. Strange how the music is LOUD. They get told off if they can not keep a customer, they get paid a bonus if they keep someone and get so many discounts at the start of the month they can apply. They will not want to downgrade or disconnect at the end of the month or they get paid less. Every excuse will be used to put you off, including suggesting extra charges because you have called too soon or too late etc. The whole CALL WAIT is caused by the scamming call centre staff subcontracted by virginmedia - they are hoping a 45min wait BEFORE they answer any calls will put people off and they will give up. When a call goes through to the "we do not manage our business correctly, so you might have to wait a log time before you can speak to anyone" message, staff are just sitting there ignoring calls watching people hang up. Waiting times are worse at the end of the month. if you really want to annoy VirginMedia, and have time to spare, keep calling them and disconnecting, it destroys their stats. The people I spoke to FORGOT to mute the mics and were playing cards and speaking about customers in Hindi. Just think, the same people working for a company subcontracted by VM could be the same people scamming others from the same call centre. If you ask for a Manager to call back, they don't, if you ask to speak to one, you can't as they refuse. If a member of staff says they are putting you on hold to speak to a Manager, they are lying to you as they don't work in India.

The terms of the insurance does not cover this, mine states that when not in use it is to be stored in my garage. The dealership insurance, if they got any, is liable now. It must have cost a fair bit for insurance considering the risk and the environment agency report.

It's like reading a letter that waffles on and only has the interesting part at the end. The radio or TV left on in the background during recording the voiceovers is quite annoying as the music is louder than the people talking. Music over people talking adds NO VALUE to the video, it is a very old production technique that GCSE students did in the 90s.

Once they know they will not be given everything for free in the UK, will not be given free transport by RNLI, supported by people trafficking groups etc, they will soon stop wasting their time.

  548.  @soylentgreen326  Exactly, that's payment for all those extra unrequired 2minute hearings to ask for future hearing dates to be changed - when it could be done by email! We all know that Barristers were well annoyed when Graduated Fees were changed to stop the abuse that had gone on for years. All those short hearings really added up and it doesn't help that some Judges are part or full owners of Barristers Chambers that have a monopoly in some parts of the UK. This is probably why cases take so long, keep getting delayed and moved etc. The more hearings, the more money. It put payments back to covering work and hearings that were actually required...

  549.  @soylentgreen326  They do, but to be fair you are paying for their vast experience of the Law. You try going in to a case representing yourself and see how far you get. There are procedures and timetables to follow throughout a trial, various tasks need to be completed like obtaining and disclosing evidence, obtaining reports, getting experts in particular fields. You get what you pay for with Barristers, apart from the people that represented people involved with Post Office cases - they really let their clients down badly and should be struck-off. It is very true that the more money you spend, the better your defence will be. That usually applies to people that have committed offences and get off on a technicality. If you have not committed a crime and there is no evidence, you should be able to rely on a Jury, but a lot are either thick or stupid when it comes to keeping up with the cases. They should really have some form of IQ Test before people can serve on a Jury. You will always get people making their minds up based on a persons wardrobe, character references written by random people and they will often stay deliberating to avoid going back to work for part of the week. Everyone knows what goes on! If you have a Barrister from London, you will nearly always win. If you have what's known in the legal profession as a "Liverpool Jury" you will always get away with certain offences due to local hatred of police and government.

  550. Well said, in accident investigations the first thing police start with is taking tyre pressures.

  553. How about a video on Data Protection and Retention Laws, maybe UK in general and UK Internet Company compared to a VPN company registered and operated from British Virgin Islands or other location that is very difficult to deal with legally. By using a VPN, you agree to them doing what they want with your personal data. You have no control over who stores it, where it is stored, who can access it and for what purpose, or who customer profiles might be sold to. How would you stop a VPN from collecting all the data flowing through their system, profiling users and selling it, or steering your traffic to the websites owned by the highest bidder. There are no Laws in countries they register in and operate from for this reason. They are known as "law-less" countries. A VPN is not needed for most people, exactly WHAT do you think sharing all your personal details, banking information, emails, banking sites and general browsing is going to do if you volunteer all this to a company and pay them to take it! Don't connect to unknown WiFi, there is no need as everyone has 4G/5G now. Your IP number is only one of a few hundred ways your identity is tracked around the Internet every day. If you do want a secure VPN Tunnel, you can go in to your Home Router and switch on the VPN Server, then copy the code in to the OpenVPN App for your computer and phone. That means no matter where you are, you connect home securely and use your own Internet connection, so always appear to be at home. An alternative is a raspberry pi with PiVPN running on it, very easy to do. Use the Wireguard App on your computer or phone, connect back home from anywhere securely and use your own internet. VPNs are throttled by ISPs now, they also repurpose other home users systems to connect out on if you are not busy and route traffic via your home system, so other users assume your IP. This is used to connect people to BBCi, ITV, Netflix etc as ALL VPN IPs are blocked by major services. You might also need to do a show on consumer rights and refunds if people are thinking of signing up to a VPN in a Law-Less country. I dare you to try and cancel a VPN, see how far you get as that 30 day guarantee is not as clear as it seems. Many people complain stating it is ignored.

  561. Oh dear, another clueless boy racer! Who do you trust more - a company that spends millions on research and development, or a backstreet trader that makes wild claims in order to take your money? The best parts for the car are fitted when you buy it and you're not going to turn a 1.2 or 1.4 or 1.6 in to a racing car. 1. Increased fuelling. Absolute rubbish, you can't as the ECU stops this, so it doesn't matter what you think you are doing to the car or even what you try, it will still go back to what it should be based on the dynamic adjustment from sensor readings. Fuel rail pressures can be messed with using a cheap nasty "tuning box" often costing £400 even though it contains a simple voltage multiplier costing 23p! Those devices take NO input from the ECU or send info back, all they do is increase fuel pressure by a set amount. They go in series with the fuel rail and damage the engine, especially when cold and more diesel is sent in, the box causes even more to go in and causes smoke and clattering. You would need a proper ECU REMAP and who would you trust doing that? Some youtuber that just increases everything from standard without any real knowledge. Don't forget, those companies will never pay up if you damage your engine! It is also possible to insurance and police investigators to find evidence of using such devices as that info can not be deleted from the ECU - it is accessed in investigations all the time. Manufacturers also refuse to honour warranty claims and you void your insurance anyway. 2. The air intake! Biggest way to make money from fools is to sell them a tiny mesh/oil or foam filter that doesn't even filter and is a much smaller surface area than a paper filter, so ends up blocking up and degrading performance far quicker, plus it doesn't pass anywhere near the amount of filtered air to the engine. There is also a sales opportunity for cleaning solutions, you will have to clean it every few months. If you had a paper filter it could still pass more filtered air until it was nearly blocked. People will remove resonators due to not knowing what they do, they cancel out noise on the intake, they do not restrict anything. The pipes and inlet are the correct size and the standard system fitted to cars passes more air than the engine requires at full RPM. 3. The exhaust, another way to get money from gullible fools. You can spend what you like and it will make NO difference to performance. All it will do is make the car sound rubbish and everyone will look around thinking someone is driving with a hole in their exhaust and see a small car doing 20mph. 4. Suspension. Don't just throw kits on without getting the suspension geometry checked or you upset the handing. People are so clueless they call a DAMPER a shock absorber. The shock absorber on a car is the SPRING itself, the DAMPER is what keeps the wheel/tyre in contact with the road. Lowered suspension is bad on a family car as it can make handling unpredictable and is often the cause of many accidents. Lowering a ride height might look nice, but does nothing for handling. Many boy racers grow out of it after being scammed for years. Many feel stupid after spending all that money for years and having a car that is slower and noisier than standard, plus costs more to insure and the handling is rubbish. Use the VW approach and fit a fake engine noise generator - in the Golf it has a thing called a SOUNDAKTOR under the bonnet to make the occupants hear the noise of a V8. Switch that off and the Golf sounds like any other car inside!

It is also closed off with advice given and no further action as they will never investigate this. There is no log of a "person called xyz scamming people - unknown ID" as there would be thousands of those and it is impossible to cross check. So as far as the police are concerned, "thanks for coming in to see us, there is nothing we will do for you". What you should be doing is appealing to the OSINT Community, they will track him down in minutes and give you his name, address, pictures, associates etc, enough to go and call in for a cup of tea. You are just delaying what could have been found within 30mins weeks ago, but I understand the need to want to make money from views!

  568. I voted this video down as you have started to copy what other youtubers do and wave your hands about in front of the camera constantly. It is really annoying having someone do this and blocking the view. If your hands are near or in front of the camera, we only see your hands, not what you are looking at. You don't notice as you are not waving your own hands in front of your face - perhaps if you did that you might see how annoying it is. STOP trying to copy what you see other youtube people doing - there are some that do things for a joke, to see how long it takes before others copy and also to see who does it first and watches their videos! There are courses on video production on youtube for beginners, they will teach you to avoid bad habits, to be unique and how to check and edit before uploading.

  571. If the previous owner secured a loan against the vehicle when he held the V5, it's down to you for not completing proper checks. You could have used carvertical or even DVLA to see when the last V5 was issued etc. If the car had finance secured on it by the previous owner after your receipt that stated "no finance outstanding" and "not written off", "in roadworthy condition" etc shows you purchased it, then it's not down to you. It is a criminal offence that needs reporting by the finance company as he clearly committed fraud by securing loan against something he didn't own.

  572. National WiFi will never be a thing, the major cable companies do not want you to be able to come and go as you please. They want you tied to contracts. This is why you will never get decent 4G/5G WiFi or Broadband in your home in a City Centre. Many of the companies I contacted said I can have it on my phone, but not with a 4G/5G router and SIM. I would just at the chance to get shut of cable.

  573. One question I want answered is how does a courier in a diesel van or car stop their DPF blocking up? I see loads of work vans and many are stop start or would never be able to be driven at 60mph for 30mins constantly to clear them. Are vans emissions systems set differently to cars for the public? I had nothing but trouble from mine. Why don't DPFs block on commercial vehicles?

  575. I'm not sure if people just invent things in order to post - anyone with knowledge of what goes on will spot the people doing this within minutes. Jury people are provided with notebooks and pens to USE DURING A HEARING, some will get assistive technology if they want it. It's a standard thing in England. The only request is that they are not taken out of the Courtroom or Jury Room and any written or stored information/material is disposed of by the Court at a time they request. Memebers of the public can make notes, but have to check first and be advised about what they can and can not be used for.

  576. Interesting to see the remote monitoring stations covered. This first started in the early 90s when SDRs were on sale but cost thousands. It was only around 1994 that computer controlled ones were being sold to the public and they were being fitted at BT Exchanges in every town and city to form a monitoring network for the RA. The RIS used it to track pirates interfering with police and ambulance etc. The response to any area was in under 1 hour they could pinpoint the exact location and pay a visit. Around 2007 the newspapers run various articles about how week WiFi passwords could cause a problem and how "special monitoring equipment" at BT Buildings could monitor the airwaves and locate people. This was of course a cover for what GCHQ was up to with the various methods of repurposing equipment! They could use a nearby WiFi point to transmit to a device of interest, or monitor for it - or use the remote stations for packet injection attacks. I only know of one case that was used in. GCHQ were using de-authentication attacks and playing about with WiFi. They don't need to do it much now as every bit of data in and out of the UK goes through GCHQ and is stored. So don't think your VPNs are private! As for the SDRs, if you can get in a BT phone exchange, have a look around and you will find them. There is still one in the middle of an exchange in Chester, UK.

We got his name and worked out where he was from what he was saying. Strangely he was never heard from again. Shame on him for being a radio technician with a company in the North West in the 90s. Awful ginger hair too.

  580. You are completely stupid if you use Nord or one of the other 124 companies owned by just 5 main operators. ALL of them are inspecting your data and manipulating, then selling it on to others. Nord is banned from PayPal because of all the complaints it had, they want your credit card to compile a verified profile as they have your real details. handy for law enforcement too when put together with the logs of the data that are kept. If you think you are not having anything logged, you need to wake up. Try cancelling Nord, you will not be able to easily. Your service will probably go down after the 30day money back guarantee too, that is what cause the PayPal ban. Why would you lower your security by allowing data to be given to a company operating where no data protection applies and no consumer law applies? Why would you pay to lower your privacy? Your data is more secure with your ISP than most VPNs. People are stupid when they are asked why they need a VPN, they give daft answers they heard on TV or saw in a video that is from someone paid 40% commission to get them onboard. 90% if users DO NOT need a VPN, they serve absolutely no purpose and give no protection.

He built up an amazing listenership and it was really good in those days. Remember that annoying jingle "Talk Radio - write it down" and "Otex ear Drops", then "nod32"...

  588.  @ToomasTelling  DABradio is finished in the UK, it failed because of - 1. Advertisers 2. Poor Audio Quality 3. Choice of different stations When it first appeared, the audio quality was brilliant as bitrates were high, some as high as 320kbps stereo on the BBC test stations. As time went on, it was all monetised and people looked at ways to get back their investment and make money. It went away from being a method of transmitting stations to one of selling advertising, making every channel play automated music with adverts and a bit of talking over the top. Many of my local DAB stations play the same music from the same feed, but change the announcements. Why just have 4 stations on a multiplex for example, when you would have 12 or 24 all running really low audio bitrates. That is why no one listens now. Who wants MONO audio at a bitrate and audio quality lower than a standard AM radio. In North West UK if you listen at home or in a car to stations on 88-108MHz FM Stereo, the audio quality is really good. Listen on DABradio and you get thin or tinny MONO with 16kbps to 64kbps and it is "quiet", plus there is no processing, no dynamic range, no compression etc, so unusable in cars. Most stations rely on streaming. DABradio was a "gap filler" while Streaming Services were improved and people started to use them more thanks to unlimited data on phones etc. I now just stream music in the car, I don't bother with DABradio and only use normal radio if there is no coverage on the phone! The choice of frequency up around 200MHz was odd too, if they had used 68-88MHz the coverage would have been vastly improved, especially for mobile use. Less transmitters and links would have been required. I use 4M amateur band (70MHz) and the coverage is really good compared to 2m and 70cm for example.

One went to his Doc, played on some form of anxiety and found himself being described as having "protected characteristics", he was given another job without any experience and without any interview - so was probably not the best candidate. This is how scared companies are now. We all know people that are only employed as they say themselves they "tick a box" and can get away with far more than others and abuse this.

  598. @@richrudemeister or did a GCHQ recruitment classic and just looked at fake references and went to fake relatives and neighbours that were paid and convinced it was to help someone get a job etc. That goes on far too often with these external verification processes. How would a neighbour be a character referee? They know nothing about a person, have little to do with them and really only see then going in and out of a house. Relatives and friends will say they are great to help out. A criminal record only means you have been caught and convicted for offences too, lots of companies employ people that have criminal records. It is of no relevance as to whether a person without one is somehow better or more honest than anyone else, they could be committing lots of offences and just not caught for them.

  602. 4:54 that drives me mad, the aerial for Capital has been mounted upside down. It's changed in recent years as it only had one element and the power level was a lot lower. 378Watts is odd, maybe to overcome the length of feeder loss and the -dB gain that aerial has, they are horribly inefficient and I am not sure why people still use them. All that wasted power to radiate the same signal I can get from a mixed polarisation aerial with 100 Watts to vertical and horizontal.

  605. With all those stations hooked up to the same audio feeds, just with different adverts played and different announcements. it really is in a terrible state now, I was SO disappointed when I got a DABradio after it first come out. I expected what was lied about on the false DABradio adverts about "crystal clear sound" and "Great audio Quality". I got lots of stations, only two local ones in stereo and everything else was mono, some sounding worse than MW. I had DABradio as standard in my car and used to listen to KISS as the bitrate was 160kbps and it was stereo. That last a few months and it went to 128kbps, then 112kbps and now I think it's 64kbps MONO. No one wants that rubbish quality. I wanted a DARradio with TWO speakers (for stereo) and could never understand why so many of the Pure radios were sold with just one. They knew everything was going to be low quality mono, so no point selling a radio with two speakers! Advertisers lied about DABradio to promote sales and they misled people. Many were fined and forced to stop lying about the audio quality, coverage and claims of "interference free crystal clear audio".

The selfish actions of these two people does not mean the rest of us that are sensible should have any restrictions. They were a massive risk to others around them, but that risk has now been removed, so the roads are slightly safer. Don't share the blame with every other road user, the driver killed his friend and himself and was lucky not to have killed anyone else.

  608. All Courtrooms have audio recording with times, so when you request a transcript, you get all that. The system is accessed by an Independant company and they are paid by the hour to sit and type out everything said. It is not in their interest to miss bits off. If the equipment breaks, handheld devices are used and that is all logged and stored after being added to the recording system. If you feel Barristers are taking their time to try and get extra pay - you try representing yourself in a case. You will not last 5minutes. I have seen many loudmouthed little cretins go screaming and shouting and almost convict themselves within minutes, because they are thick. That's often why they were caught, but that's a different story!

  610. Legal Aid should be cut completely for people that are repeatedly accused of offences or those committing them, it is being misused and legal people are scamming the system to get paid a fortune. Old systems of fees were misused as many Judges are partners of barristers chambers, many barristers also sit as Judges - hearings are put in to lists in such a way that the fee scheme can be used to get maximum payments on each day and for each case. They also seem to be put in for people to run from one hearing to another for multiple payments. The Graduated Fee scheme did allow abuse and barristers were earningup to £750K a year through Legal Aid. Not many customers are private payers in criminal cases. Why should the taxpayer foot the bill? Interpreters also saw cuts. They would be paid a daily rate plus travel expenses. That was cut to only being paid for the actual time they interpreted. A full days pay went down to maybe one or two hours. That's what happens if people get greedy and want more all the time. People should have been happy with what they managed to get as complaining backfired.

  611. You are definitely NOT being honest about working as a police officer then. If you were, you would have more insight. It was well known as officers were told what they should and should not say at a certain time, around the 90s when scanners appeared because they were more affordable. It was well known criminals used them to get an early warning when they didn't have anyone on the payroll to warn them. Many people caught had scanners, but before that they stole radios such as the Burndept handheld ones, or modified amateur radio equipment. Some even transmitted to block everyone. Please don't talk rubbish and claim to be something you were not.

The Fake Homeless are deceptive, dishonest, manipulative scammers, they will take advantage of easy targets. One hostel had a number of people having legs cut off. Nothing to do with lies about being in the army, it was to do with injecting drugs. One woman even caused her own amputation to get more money in benefits. That is what drugs do to people.

  628.  @simonstones1918  They think it, but have been conditioned not to say anything for fear of being labelled or sacked from jobs for holding a view they are entitled to have and not one that is fashionable or forced upon them like race or disability, even climate change issues. People are scared to say what they think now as a minority of Agenda Changers set out to close people down unless they agreed with their opinion being forced on everyone. You try saying anything now and see how people react. When I say there are are not many genuine homeless people in the UK, homeless people on the streets went home during lockdown and most on the streets are people from local hostels and/or with drink and drug problems just begging for money - I get the "easily scammed crew" speaking out, the type that fall for fake calls to empty their bank accounts, saying they are genuine! I followed charities about for years after helping people I thought were genuine outside a workplace. They were heroin and crack addicts from the YMCA hostel, experienced in theft and deception just like others you see sitting around or in tents and carboard boxes. People are afraid to say it as they use it against the argument for importing this new army of men from a number of countries - just stop Serco, withdraw the lucrative contracts for relatives of Government Ministers. Stop them abusing the RNLI by using them as a private taxi service from French waters FOR FREE.

  633. What about being charged for obeying a traffic signal! Example, stopped at a RED traffic light on a busy road junction with 4 lanes on each road (crossing) with a 40mph limit. A police car, ambulance or fire engine appears from behind displaying flashing blue lights and sounding horns and/or sirens - clearly in a hurry to get somewhere or respond to an emergency. If I choose NOT to cross the red light, can I be prosecuted for obeying a traffic signal? The reason I ask is that a lot of emergency vehicles will try to force people to cross red lights and drive in to the path of other vehicles who might not be expecting this to happen and make no allowance for slowing or stopping without much notice. Emergency drivers do this by waving their arms and shouting or getting too close and keeping sirens on and sounding horns! Bad road planning is not the fault of the motorist, neither is poor positioning of emergency vehicles based on predictive data.
