| 400-hp Aspid roadster coming to London Motor Show | | 2008-06-29 08:49:00 | | While we can't get enough of the Caterham and all its copycats, the one thing we've never said to ourselves is, "This needs a roof, some luxury amenities and 400 horsepower." But that's exactly what IFR Automotive has done with the Aspid. IFR is an acronym for the engineer that founded the firm, Ignacio Fernandez Rodriquez, whose former employers include Prodrive and the Mitsubishi WRC team. Rodriquez wanted to create a track-day masterpiece that would not only confirm to FIA safety standards and European homologation requirements, but also offer a level of luxury and refinement previous unseen on other track-bound whips.The result is a lightweight aluminum and carbon fiber structure that tips the scales at around 1,550 pounds. Two engines will be available when the production model hits the streets later this year, including a naturally aspirated 2.0-liter producing 270 hp, or a 400-hp turbocharged version of the same mill. Power will be sent to the rear wheels via a six-speed manual | | By: Autoshows | | |

| Duels in London... notably Battersea | | 2008-06-27 05:05:29 | | Battersea Fields and Putney Heath have been well documented as being the most popular places to settle a dispute over the years.
Winchelsea v Wellington: A dreadful Duel!But the perhaps the most high-profile of these was between the Duke of Wellington and the Earl of Winchelsea in 1829 at Battersea. The slight absurdity of the event left many to predict that duelling was on its last legs, as noted in the Morning Herald's account on March 23. .
. . . The city was thrown into ferment this morning by a report which seemed so utterly improbable that at first few believed it. We were among the incredulous, thinking it a story fit only to amuse male and female old ladies – those gossipers in and out of petticoats. But every third person we met told us seriously how His Grace the Duke of Wellington had taken offence at his lordship's, the Earl of Winchelsea's, letter about the King's College; how the aforesaid noble Duke had challenged the Earl; how the said belligerents had agreed to meet | | By: The Wandsworth Companion | | |

| Why the City of London is right to fear Dubai | | 2008-06-15 00:27:00 | | Senior figures in the United Kingdom government are increasingly concerned about the rise of Dubai as a financial centre and what it might mean for the future of the City of London.They fear that a combination of huge oil surpluses in the Middle East and a relatively low-cost business hub, regulated with a common law legal system, may prove an irresistible lure to financial executives struggling with soaring costs in a global recession.Last week Standard Chartered chief economist Gerald Lyons told journalists in Dubai that he had recently been in a meeting with senior members of the UK government where, for the first time in his experience, genuine concern over the mounting competition from Dubai as a financial centre was expressed "at the highest levels".

Bartram, former chief executive of Dutch real estate company Haslemere NV, has set up a 300 million-pound ($595 million) investment fund, partially bankrolled by the sovereign wealth fund of Singapore, the Times said.

| Boris is the next Mayor of London | | 2008-05-09 17:40:41 | | Boris Johnson is the new Mayor of London, his rivals conceded tonight. The Evening Standard in London is predicting that the Tory MP scored a stunning election victory to end Ken Livingstone's eight-year reign and round off a disastrous 24 hours for the Labour Party. Gordon Brown is sitting in the Downing street flat with his cocoa wondering where it all went wrong. Probably on the day a certain Tony Blair waltzed into his office in the House of Commons for the first time and almost immediately began a cheesy relationship. Gordon's antennae were on the blink that day!So now it is Boris. The liberally-minded libertine-leaning fellow travellers of New Labour think Boris is a buffoon. Far from it. He is a very clear-headed thinker who will be a great asset for London. A character who can play the international stage. Gone will be the nasal drone of Ken Livingstone, a man who has been barely tolerated by the New Labour hierarchy. In his place will come a man who will be fair-minded but not | | By: A View from Middle England by Arden Forester | | |

| BNP take seat on London Assembly | | 2008-05-09 17:39:56 | | For the first time the BNP is represented on a "top tier" level of government. The regional assembly for London is the only one that is elected, all the others being quangos not wanted by the rest of England. So this Assembly allows for a proportional representation element and the BNP got above the 5% threshold. Richard Barnbrook, the mayoral candidate, will be the first BNP AM. He will be hoping this is no false dawn! One thing is for certain. I won't be around long enough to see a BNP PM if ever that eventful day should occur.London Elects is the body that oversees this marathon adventure. The BBC was getting excited about turnout. Up to 45% - that's why the count took so long. "They were expecting a much lower figure!", they squeaked. Oh, really? So if it went to 60 or 70% would we be in the Zimbabwe realms of electoral counting? "A decision will be made at the end of next week. Will everyone stay calm, please!" Doesn't bear thinking about.In the Top-up Vote, which is London-wide, | | By: A View from Middle England by Arden Forester | | |

| The Great Fire of (East) London | | 2008-05-03 09:55:52 | | I've been really bad lately - only one post in November, and now here we are almost a third of the way through December! I have some catching up to do. Well actually that's not really true - for some reason I haven't been taking many photos recently so there's not much to catch up on. Various things have been getting in the way - busy at work, busy at home, it's dark now when I leave the house in the morning and when I get back at night, I've been doing some extra curricular work designing a website and when I have had some free time I've been playing Crysis.Even the photos I did take last month went untouched until today when I finally got around to downloading them onto my PC and playing around with them ... Back in the middle of November there was a large fire in the East of London on the site of a future Olympics venue. From our office we had an amazing view of the huge plume of smoke and could see the flames when they were at their highest.So, even though they are four weeks late | | By: Dave's Photo Blog | | |

| O'Connor not 4 Justice 4 England (or London)! | | 2008-04-25 18:05:33 | | Matt O'Connor, the substitute candidate for Mayor of London on behalf of the English Democrats, says he has halted his campaign to become mayor. O'Connor replaced Garry Bushell, the well-known columnist, social pundit and all-round diamond geezer. Appearing on Vanessa Feltz's radio talk show on BBC London, O'Connor complained about lack of publicity. I can't think what he is meaning, as he got quite a bit. The trouble was it was all about him and his past exploits in Fathers4Justice.As Sir Alan Sugar might say on firing a hapless candidate in The Apprentice, "You're a complete shambles. You're fired!". The English Democrat campaign had an air of mystery laced with a we-know-something's-going-on-behind-the scenes inclination. It was badly thought out with little or no contribution from leading EDP people. O'Connor's website has been pulled leaving him saying, "With the benefit of hindsight I probably should not have stood for them".I would have thought that the Kilroy episode with parts | | By: A View from Middle England by Arden Forester | | |

| London Smells Like %$#@ | | 2008-04-19 15:13:00 | | A stiff breeze blows across the European continent, bringing with it the smell of manure from Dutch farms. Dutch farmers, banned from spreading the stinky stuff during winter, are spreading it 'en masse', trying to rid themselves of over-supply.The manure maneuver is going to leave a foul smell in the noses of Londoners for a couple more days until the wind direction changes. According to the Met Office, the scent is worse that usual due to stagnant winds which let the aroma build up.London newspapers have dubbed the phenomenon 'Le Stink.' A National Farmers Union spokesman said if UK leaders go ahead with a similar idea to ban winter-time manure spreading, the UK has nothing to look forward to but more smelly days.
