You only have to look at Murdoch to understand how the media works. It is not a profession for the public interest anymore; it is there only to serve the people who own them.

Part of this is dead catting so they can sell the land from the collapse of HS2.
Complacency is not an option we can afford.
They can't make any laws that override the ECHR. It has been stated for months now that the Rwanda scheme was doomed to fail, because it fails to meet the criteria of the agreement on many counts. The only option would be to leave the council of Europe. This is not about refugee or "illegal migration". This because they want to strip the rights of UK citizens. This is why Brexit happened. All this bullshit so they can abuse labour laws, then laws to keep the population in line. It is the big con, and idiots are falling for it.
Aye I watched PMQs also. He mentioned it in the opening statement, and then used a stool to ask the question so he could reiterate the point. Pretty stupid imo. Starmer has to get this message across as to why it is extremely bad for the people of the UK to leave the ECHR.
I will ofc be writing to my MP.
As for how to wire, breaker switches do not have a positive and negative connections. They only either connect or break the circuit. Obviously the wiring has to lead to each corresponding cable (positive to positive).
The earth is critical on devices that have metal shrouds. The earth should be continuous. You can do that by either wiring both earth connections into one side of the switch so it is not ever broken, or by adding a wire cable connection and tucking it safely inside the mounting box..
Last week I installed a 3 pole fan switch for the bathroom extractor to over ride the dodgy humidity sensor it has. It gets turned it on and off manually now. I have a replacement fan ready to install, but I need to cut out 3mm of glass to get it to fit. I am going to wait for the summer in case the worst happens and the glass shatters. This is why I could answer what you needed.
This is similar to the switch I used with a 25mm box to mount it. You can buy a metal mounting box, if you want to bury the fitting.
I prefer a fixed placement box over the loose cable of a rocker switch. Some of the rocker switches have poor cable retention systems, which can result in the cable coming loose over time. Moreso when using thicker cabling. I don't mind rockers for lighting, but for fixed hardware, its not my first choice, and tbf a rocker switch doesn't look very nice if it is on permanent display.
I wouldn't wire up a dimmer switch to a motor. It can cause the motor to stall between poles, which can result in a component becoming hot.
Low-voltage lowdown. For an electric motor, torque changes as the square of the voltage applied. A 10% increase in voltage, for example, will boost torque 21% (1.1×1.1=1.21). Conversely, at 90% of rated voltage, the motor suffers a 19% reduction in torque (0.9×0.9=0.81). A more severe undervoltage condition, 20% below rated value, would reduce the motors torque to only 64% of rating (0.8×0.8 =.64). The effects are a 156% overload and catastrophic failure.
If torque decreases below the torque required by the load, the motor would stall. At that point, the only product of the motor is heat. However, a 100-hp motor, with locked rotor, becomes a 500kW resistive heater.
Fig. 2. Insulation life is halved for every 10°C rise in temperature. In this example, insulation life drops from four years to less than six weeks for a 50°C change in temperature.
Excess heat is a problem for motors because insulation life is halved for every 10°C increase in temperature (Fig. 2). At the same time, the temperature of the winding will rise 10°C to 15°C for each 10% drop in voltage. That means the insulation life of a motor that operates on 10% lower voltage will decrease to only 50% to 75% of its expected life.
Undervoltage events that last long enough to increase winding temperature cause irrevocable damage to winding insulation and unexpected failures later. A sustained low-voltage event can damage the insulation system of every electric motor running during the event. The only motor that's safe during a prolonged undervoltage event is one that's turned off.
Time for Starmer to start explaining to people exactly what leaving the ECHR entails. Nip this BS in the bud before they fester the narrative to con people.
I think we have been in the NT for about 12 years. I have voted twice. That was for the last two years.
The conservative organisation recognised that educated people do not vote in their favour. There is a tin foil hat theory that they do not fund state education on purpose precisely for that reason. DIRECT DEMOCRACY: An Agenda for a New Model Party. page 12
The decline in Conservative support has been particularly marked among the most educated. This is not always obvious since more education is associated with higher income, and higher income is still (just) associated with stronger Conservative support. However, other factors being held constant, the more educationally qualified someone is, the less likely he or she is to support the Conservatives. This is a problem to the extent that the more educated are likelier to vote, and are often influential in leading the opinion of others. It is also, of course, a problem in a country where nearly half of young people are now going to university.

Sunak cannot pass any laws this side of an election. The lords will quash any legislation around this, and there is not enough time to force it through. It is just bluster to appease the muppets in the party, while creating a distraction for other stuff. When a Tory is shouting loudly there is usually something else going on.
