I own the flat (it's leasehold). So the chunky cutoff switch under the stairs is the demarcation between the DNO and my responsibility? To replace the run from there to the flat would likely be disruptive to the communal areas of the block (the hall), I guess I'll have to involve the...

I'm in the process of moving into a flat (1920s purpose built block) that's been unoccupied for a few years and thought I'd take a nose around the electrics today. I have a horrible feeling there is no effective earth to the flat. The DNO supply enters the building under the stairs, there's...

I think Nick was trying to claw back some credibility by being seen to do something decisive by backing 'call me Dave' in his firm stance. How backing someone else's decision can be seen as decisive is beyond me. Sad for them both that the motion was not passed. So now Nick "call me Nick"...

Interesting result in the Parliament vote today. They denied the PM's motion entirely - and that was the hastily watered down "we'll have another vote before we actually do anything" motion. That has to be a smack in the face for David Cameron - but I think that serves him right for trying to...
