    BNP

    once again the black police force, etc DOES make it racist, as it prevents white people from entering, much like black people were moaning about not being allowed to join the BNP. Talking about Nazi's/Facists - isn't the 1st sign of facism not allowing people free speach and to have...

    BNP on question time....

    facism starts when people (groups, etc) prevent other people from having their opinion, say and right to speak (like hitler did) ...... IMO jack straw and the rest of the panel including dimbledby are as much facists as they were claiming nick griffin and his bnp to be. also, the thugs...

    BNP

    What I find RACIST is that there is a black policeforce and muslim police force in the UK and black music awards and baclk newspresenter awards. If there was a caucasian award there would be a right stink and be branded as RACIST!! This gets people's back right up. The reason IMO why BNP...

    Gas boiler pipe size - old 15mm, new 22mm!...

    Hi I am thinking of hanging the jig/connecting the flue and piping up myself and getting it commissioned by a gas safe engineer as by law. i believe gas pipe sizing is done in sections, eg from meter to 1st tee and then from tee to boiler, so 2 sections in my case.

    I have an old potterton wall hung boiler which has a gas pipe connection in 15mm diameter (copper). I am thinking of upgrading to a new boiler but all new boilers seem to have a 22mm connection for the gas supply. Does this mean the whole gas pipe from the branch conenction will have to be...

    System cleaner coming out - do I need a neutraliser?

    x200 - for scale?? will this prevent boiler heat exchanger noises that may happen over time, if fresh water is introduced into the system over years, eg due to drain down/repairs? also will it prevent the heat exchanger loosing efficiency??

    Wireless room thermostats?

    Are they all of the programmable type? Also, what does it mean when they have voltage free contacts?? Does it mean it requires a battery to work? If you buy one and use it with a combination boiler, are they easy to install? Thanks for helping.
