Clement Attlee, British Labour Prime Minister (1945-51), was born this week (January 3rd), 1883.

A Great War veteran, he led his party to a landslide election win in 1945, and steered the ambitious Welfare State manifesto, based on the 1942 Beveridge Report, which encompassed a raft of benefits, including family allowances and universal health care.

Upon his retirement from the leadership of the Labour Party in 1955, the BBC summarised his career details;

“…In 1942 he became deputy Prime Minister in the War Cabinet under Sir Winston Churchill. During his six years as Prime Minister from 1945 to 1951 he oversaw sweeping changes to the Welfare State with the introduction of the National Health Service and the nationalisation of key industries - the Bank of England, civil aviation, coal, telecommunications, transport, electricity, iron and steel. He also pushed through the independence of India and Burma…The son of a solicitor, he was educated at Oxford and trained as a barrister. He joined the independent Labour Party in 1908 and became Labour MP for Limehouse from 1922 to 1950 and West Walthamstow from 1950 to 1955. He was elected Labour leader in 1935…”

One aspect of the Welfare State reforms that Clement Attlee championed personally, was the provision of a bereavement grant. Having worked in some of the poorest areas of London, an experience that helped to forge his political beliefs, he felt strongly the need to mitigate the trauma and stigma of the pauper’s funeral.

Immediately following his resignation, Atlee was awarded a hereditary peerage, the First Earl Attlee, and continued to serve in the House of Lords. He died in 1967, aged 84.

It Looks Like a Vespa, Rides Like a Vespa, but Doesn’t Smell Like a Vespa

An Irish mechanic in London has developed a kit to transform classic Italian scooters into clean-riding electric machines.

By Nick Czap

April 1, 2021, 6:00 a.m. ET

Among the iconic designs of Italy’s vibrant postwar period, few capture the essence of La Dolce Vita like Vespas and Lambrettas, the free-spirited motor scooters that brought mobility to the masses and became beloved across Italy, and subsequently, the world.

While the two companies still make scooters, those early models — whose whining two-stroke engines spew plumes of aromatic smoke — are by far the most sought by collectors, some commanding up to $30,000.

But just as vintage scooters are reaching a new peak of popularity, a wave of emissions regulations aimed at reducing pollution threatens their access to Europe’s city centers. Within every regulation, though, lies an opportunity, and one lifelong scooter enthusiast has seized it firmly by the tailpipe.

Niall McCart, an Irishman from the city of Armagh, got his first Vespa at 16. De rigueur for a youth swept up in Britain’s early-1980s Mod revival, the Vespa was eminently practical as well.

“A two-stroke is a very simple mechanical structure,” Mr. McCart said, with a modesty common to the mechanically gifted. “I could fix it with a screwdriver and a hammer” — an ability that would eventually serve him well on rallies along the English coast, and on extended tours of Europe and India.

In 1989, at the age of 21, Mr. McCart moved to London, where, after stints in the building trade and delivering packages on a Vespa, he began working as a mechanic at a scooter shop. In 2000, he opened his own concern in a garden shed. Today, his business, Retrospective Scooters, occupies a 3,500-square-foot warehouse in the East End town of Walthamstow.

As Mr. McCart’s business grew, so did restrictions on older vehicles. The European Union’s first Low Emission Zones were established in 1996. By 2018, there were over 260, and still rising.

London has one such zone, as well as an extra-stringent Ultra Low Emission Zone, in the city center. Introduced in April 2019, the more stringent zone will expand substantially this October. To drive inside it, owners of polluting scooters must pay a daily fee of 12.50 pounds (about $17). Failure to pay can result in a hefty fine.

In 2017, with the end of cheap and dirty scootering looming, Mr. McCart posed a question to a friend and fellow scooter enthusiast, John Chubb: “Wouldn’t it be great if we could make our old Vespas electric?”

Mr. Chubb recalled the moment vividly. “We were sitting in a tent in a music festival in Cornwall, and he was saying the future is electric. I said, ‘I reckon I could build one of those.’”

He could also bring a raft of technical competencies to the project. A retired Royal Navy commander with degrees in electrical engineering and rocket science, Mr. Chubb is also an expert in anti-ship missiles, a qualification whose benefit, though perhaps unquantifiable, couldn’t hurt.

Mr. McCart’s brief was explicit. The conversion “was not to interfere in any way with the original design and setup of the scooters,” he said. “You don’t do any cutting or welding or destruction of the original chassis.” And critically important for preserving a scooter’s value, the process had to be reversible.

An encounter with a Chinese manufacturer at a motorcycle show in Milan in 2017 proved instrumental.

“The Chinese have been riding electric scooters for 15 years-plus,” Mr. McCart said. “They’ve done it and made it and perfected it. They had it all laid out.”

Mr. Chubb, meanwhile, hobnobbed with the chief technical officer of QS Motor, a firm in Zhejiang Province that makes motors for electric scooters and e-bikes.

“We had a really good conversation,” Mr. Chubb said. “I’d done a whole load of first-principles calculations about the power of an electric motor and how that would work in an electric scooter. I saw all his equations, and he and I did it exactly the same way.

“Seeing that data was very interesting,” he continued, “because we knew exactly where the sweet spot was in terms of the specifications of what we wanted to run as a motor, and we could run it more or less to optimum efficiency.”

Mr. McCart and Mr. Chubb devised the basic plan: Pull the gas tank and put a lithium-ion battery in its place, and replace the scooter’s original swing arm (which supports the engine and rear wheel) with a custom-made swing arm that holds a wheel with a built-in hub motor.

Mr. Chubb set to work on the prototype, meeting periodically with Mr. McCart, who fine-tuned various components. In June 2018, Mr. McCart unveiled their creation — an electrified 1976 Vespa Primavera — at the Vespa World Days rally in Belfast, Northern Ireland.

The initial reaction was skeptical. “These guys were purists,” Mr. McCart said. “They were against it when they seen it,” he recalled, “but as soon as they drove it to the other end of the car park and back again, they had the biggest grin on their face.”

One rider made a pivotal suggestion: “You’ve got to sell it as a kit.” Mr. McCart, who had planned to offer electric conversions only as a service, embraced the idea. “I thought, ‘He’s right. I’ve got to make it really simple.’ The next step was to try and make a plug-and-play kit.”

Three years later, Retrospective Scooters sells kits for five types of vintage Vespas and Lambrettas. Costing £3,445 (about $4,750), each includes a 64-volt, 28-amp-hour battery that can push a scooter to a top speed of 50 miles an hour and go 30 to 35 miles on a charge.

Certain scooters can accommodate two or three batteries. A Lambretta GP for instance, packed with three lithium-ion units, can go 120 miles between charges. Mr. McCart, though, thinks a single battery is sufficient.

“Let’s not forget what scooters were invented for — traveling in a 20-to-30-mile radius of where you lived,” he said.

To date, Mr. McCart has sold 60 kits — 24 in Britain (20 of them installed at his shop), and 36 to customers overseas, mostly, and somewhat surprisingly to Mr. McCart, in the United States.

“I expected more to go into Europe,” he said, “but there’s quite a lot of bureaucracy and official inspections of any vehicle alterations, so there’s really no incentive for Europeans to buy our kit with all that up against them.

Last summer, Danny Montoya, the owner of a children’s woodworking studio in San Francisco, installed a kit in his 1973 Vespa Rally 180. Mr. Montoya had owned the scooter since 1999, but in recent years had grown uneasy with its pollution, not to mention the constant reek of petroleum.

A capable do-it-yourselfer, he initially considered cobbling together his own electric kit with information gleaned from internet message boards, but when he came across Mr. McCart’s, he said, he thought: “Whoa, this guy has actually done the work.” Although the price gave him pause, after corresponding with Mr. McCart, who promised to assist with any technical issues, Mr. Montoya said, “OK, this is legit.”

Mr. Montoya estimates he spent 20 to 30 hours on the project, the most complex part of which, he said, was ensuring that all of the electrical connections were correct. Mr. McCart acknowledges that at the time, in late 2020, the installation guide was rudimentary. Since then, he explained, the design of the kit and the instructions have been improved so that someone with basic mechanical skills should be able to complete the installation in about 16 hours.

These days, Mr. Montoya seeks any excuse to ride his electrified machine, which performs just as advertised, delivering 30 miles on a charge, even on San Francisco’s hills. Recalling his first ride, Mr. Montoya said: “It was very weird. A normal scooter is so loud, all you hear is the motor. This is so quiet, all you hear is the wind.”

On a recent afternoon, as Mr. Montoya did a few drive-bys, a reporter struggled to discern which was louder — the soft hum of the motor or the sound of the tire treads licking the pavement.

The new incarnation is so stealthy, in fact, Mr. Chubb finds that “when you live in a quiet village, people walk right in front of you.” He’s looking into noise generators that could produce anything from the thrum of a Harley-Davidson to the futuristic racket of a “Star Wars” Podracer.

Mr. McCart, who commutes every day on his electrified Vespa, takes a different approach to unwary pedestrians: “I shout at them. I say, ‘Oi!’”

This week (December 7th), 1955, Clement Attlee resigned after 20 years as leader of the UK Labour Party, for six of which (1945-51) he had served as Prime Minister. Since 1951, Labour had been in Opposition, and earlier in 1955 had lost a second consecutive election to the Conservatives, now led by Anthony Eden.

It had not been an easy time for the 72 year old Great War veteran and Labour leader, politically or health wise, having recently suffered a stroke. There were divisions in the Labour Party between left and moderate factions, and there had been ongoing speculation about Mr Attlee’s leadership. Announcing his resignation with immediate effect, he said,

 “…It is regrettable, however, that since (The 1951 election) there has scarcely been a week passed without one prominent member of the party or another talking about my impending resignation. That certainly does not help the party…"

 The BBC reported on his career details;

 “…In 1942 he became deputy Prime Minister in the War Cabinet under Sir Winston Churchill. During his six years as Prime Minister from 1945 to 1951 he oversaw sweeping changes to the Welfare State with the introduction of the National Health Service and the nationalisation of key industries - the Bank of England, civil aviation, coal, telecommunications, transport, electricity, iron and steel. He also pushed through the independence of India and Burma…The son of a solicitor, he was educated at Oxford and trained as a barrister. He joined the independent Labour Party in 1908 and became Labour MP for Limehouse from 1922 to 1950 and West Walthamstow from 1950 to 1955. He was elected Labour leader in 1935...”

One aspect of the Welfare State reforms that Clement Attlee championed personally, was the provision of a bereavement grant. Having worked in some of the poorest areas of London, an experience that helped to forge his political beliefs, he felt strongly the need to mitigate the trauma and stigma of the pauper’s funeral.

Immediately following his resignation, Atlee was awarded a hereditary peerage, the First Earl Attlee, and continued to serve in the House of Lords.  He died in 1967, aged 84.

The Top 10 Longest Tunnels in the UK and Where to Find Them

The Top 10 Longest Tunnels in the UK and Where to Find Them

We have already seen the worlds longest tunnels and while those here in the UK are nothing when compared to them they are still pretty impressive. So let’s take a look at what type they are and where you can find them…

  The Top 10 Longest Tunnels in the UK and Where to Find Them

  Crossrail Limmo Peninsula to Farringdon

10 – Crossrail Limmo Peninsula to Farringdon, London – Length: 8,300 meters (5.15 miles)

Wiki Info: Crossrail is a 118-kilometre (73-mile) railway line under development in England, running through parts of London and the home counties of Berkshire, Buckinghamshire and Essex. The central section and a large portion of the line, between Paddington in central London and Abbey Wood in the south-east, are due to open in December 2018; when it will be named the Elizabeth line in honour of Queen Elizabeth II. Part of the eastern section, between Liverpool Street and Shenfield in Essex, was transferred to a precursor service called TfL Rail in 2015; this section will be connected to the core route through central London to Paddington from May 2019.

Piccadilly line (Hounslow Central to Heathrow Terminal 5)

9 – Piccadilly line (Hounslow Central to Heathrow Terminal 5) – Length: 8,760 meters (5.44 miles)

Wiki Info: The Piccadilly line serves many of London’s key tourist attractions including the British Museum (Russell Square), the numerous museums around South Kensington, Harrods (Knightsbridge), Hyde Park and Buckingham Palace (within walking distance of Green Park station), Leicester Square (with its own station) and Covent Garden (also with its own station).

London Post Office Railway

8 – London Post Office Railway, London – Length: 10,500 meters (6.52 miles)

Wiki Info: The Post Office Railway, known as Mail Rail since 1987, is a 2 ft (610 mm) narrow gauge, driverless underground railway in London that was built by the Post Office with assistance from the Underground Electric Railways Company of London, to move mail between sorting offices. Inspired by the Chicago Tunnel Company, it operated from 1927 until 2003. A museum within the former railway was opened in September 2017.

Bakerloo line (Elephant & Castle to Queen’s Park)

7 – Bakerloo line (Elephant & Castle to Queen’s Park), London – Length: 10,900 meters (6.77 miles)

Wiki Info: The Bakerloo line is a London Underground line that runs between Harrow & Wealdstone in suburban north-west London and Elephant & Castle in south London, via the West End. Coloured brown on the Tube map, it serves 25 stations, of which 15 are below ground, over 14.4 miles (23.2 km). It runs partly on the surface and partly at deep level. The line was so named because it serves Baker Street and Waterloo. North of Queen’s Park (the section above ground), the line shares tracks with the London Overground Watford DC Line and runs parallel to the West Coast Main Line. There are, however, tunnels on either side of Kensal Green.

Northern line (Kennington to Golders Green via Charing Cross)

6 – Northern line (Kennington to Golders Green via Charing Cross), London – Length: 11,940 meters (7.41 miles)

Wiki Info: For most of its length it is a deep-level tube line.[nb 1] The portion between Stockwell and Borough opened in 1890 and is the oldest section of deep-level tube line on the Underground network. There were about 252 million passenger journeys recorded in 2011/12 on the Northern line, making it the second-busiest on the Underground. (It was the busiest from 2003 to 2010.) It is unique in having two different routes through central London. Despite its name, it does not serve the northern-most stations on the network, though it does serve the southern-most station, Morden, as well as 16 of the system’s 29 stations south of the River Thames.

Central line (Stratford to White City)

5 – Central line (Stratford to White City), London – Length: 17,390 meters (10.80 miles)

Wiki Info: The Central line is a London Underground line that runs through central London, from Epping, Essex, in the north-east to Ealing Broadway and West Ruislip in the west. Coloured red on the Tube map, the line serves 49 stations over 46 miles (74 km), which makes it the longest Tube line. It is also one of only two lines on the Underground network to cross the Greater London boundary, the other being the Metropolitan line. One of London’s deep-level railways, Central line trains are smaller than those on British main lines.

Piccadilly line (Bounds Green to Barons Court)

4 – Piccadilly line (Bounds Green to Barons Court), London – Length: 19,610 meters (12.18 miles)

Wiki Info: The Piccadilly line is a London Underground line that runs between Cockfosters in suburban north London and Acton Town in the west where it divides into two branches, one to Heathrow Airport and the other to Uxbridge in north-west London.

Victoria line (Brixton to Walthamstow Central)

3 – Victoria line (Brixton to Walthamstow Central), London – Length: 22,040 meters (13.69 miles)

Wiki Info: The Victoria line is a London Underground line that runs between Brixton in south London and Walthamstow Central in the north-east, via the West End. It is coloured light blue on the Tube map and is one of just two lines to run entirely below ground, the other being the Waterloo & City line.

(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push();

Northern line (Morden to East Finchley via Bank)

2 – Northern line (Morden to East Finchley via Bank), London – Length: 27,800 meters (17.27 miles)

Wiki Info: The Northern line is a London Underground line that runs essentially from south-west to north London, with two branches through central London and three in the north. Its southern section runs from Morden in the borough of Merton to Kennington in Southwark, where it then divides into two central branches, one via Charing Cross in the West End and the other via Bank in the City. The central branches re-join at Camden Town, where the line again divides into two branches, one to High Barnet and the other to Edgware in the borough of Barnet. On the High Barnet branch there is a short single-track branch to Mill Hill East only.

Channel Tunnel

1 – Channel Tunnel, Kent – Length: 50,470 meters (31.36 miles)

Wiki Info: The Channel Tunnel is a 50.45-kilometre (31.35 mi) rail tunnel linking Folkestone, Kent, in the United Kingdom, with Coquelles, Pas-de-Calais, near Calais in northern France, beneath the English Channel at the Strait of Dover. At its lowest point, it is 75 m (250 ft) deep below the sea bed, and 115 m (380 ft) below sea level. At 37.9 kilometres (23.5 mi), the tunnel has the longest undersea portion of any tunnel in the world, although the Seikan Tunnel in Japan is both longer overall at 53.85 kilometres (33.46 mi) and deeper at 240 metres (790 ft) below sea level. The speed limit for trains in the tunnel is 160 kilometres per hour (99 mph).

Tips for choosing the best fireplace in Walthamstow

The fireplace is one of the most important parts of the house especially if you live in the UK where unfortunately the weather is quite often cold. Most of the people want to ensure that they have the best fireplace that will enhance the look of their interior as well as providing the essential functionality of keeping them warm.

Of course most homes these days have a central heating system but that doesn’t mean the fireplace is dead, in fact they are more popular than ever. So if you are looking for a great fireplace in Walthamstow here are a few things to consider before you buy.

Fuel

There are three main choices to make here: Gas, electric and a real wood/coal burner. This will be the first decision you make before you start looking at designs.

Wood Burner

Obviously for a real fire you will need a chimney installed in your house if you don’t already have one. This isn’t as drastic as it sounds as it can be done quite easily with a pipe. All three of these have varying running costs. A wood burner can be the cheapest if you have a good wood supplier. Wood burners are also the most dangerous, probably not the best idea if you have small children. They also require the most maintenance and you will have to budget for a chimney sweep and regularly clean the fire itself.

Electric

Depending on the wattage electric fires can be expensive but it depends on what area you live in whether it’s going to be more expensive than gas. Electric require no maintenance and provide consistent heat at the flick of a button. There are no fumes to worry about and generally they are the easiest to install.

Gas

If you intend to choose gas then you must make sure there is a supply near to where you wish to position the fire. Gas fires will require a professional to install as doing it incorrectly could be deadly. You should also invest in a carbon monoxide monitor.

Design

Obviously this will come down to personal preference. There are many different styles to choose from. Traditional fire places are the most popular as they will look good in most environments. However there is a growing market for modern wall mounted fireplaces.

Wood Burners are incredibly popular right now and nothing beats having a real open flame in the house. There is something very special about it and it makes the house incredibly cosy. On a cold dark winters night there is nothing better.

You will also want to consider what kind of surround you want. Do you want a mantelpiece of a free standing unit?

Cost

One of the most important things to consider during the selection of the fireplace is your budget. You have to ensure that you select the material, fuel and service providers that will meet your requirements and your budget in the best possible way. It is important that you properly plan before getting the fireplace. Conduct a complete research that will give you the perfect idea about the things that you must select to keep it in your budget. Make sure that you compare two or more service providers so that you can have the best product at an affordable cost or discounted rate.

There may be interest free credit available depending on what you buy and where you buy it from.

Construction

Make sure that you pay special attention towards the construction of the fireplace. Some materials are going to last longer than others. Wooden surrounds are popular and provide a really rustic and traditional look but it isn’t going to last as long as marble. Make sure that you select the highest quality material for the construction of the fireplace. This is especially important if you choose to buy online as you can’t always get a feel for the quality of the materials. If you do buy online make sure you hire a professional to install it in your home. An incorrectly installed fireplace could be extremely dangerous. Always check the reviews of online retailers and installers.

Weather

The weather in Walthamstow should play a big part in your decision on what to buy. You may be buying it to enhance your living room but you want something practical which you can rely on as you get older and you start to feel the cold more.

The further North you live the more you will want something reliable and easy to use. Wood and coal burners provide fantastic heat but what happens when you run out of fuel and it’s the middle of the night? Consider this before you go down that road. Gas and electric are available at the flick of a switch.
