  • Right. It’s the same as the chancellor slipping into his Wellington boots when there is a flood event. He looks around, listens to people telling him that there is water everywhere, then he says the government will do what they can to help.

    He does not (and cannot) do anything to help anyone at that moment, at least more than is already happening, but pretending exactly that is part of the job. If the mayor does not want that part of the job, he’s not fit for it and should be doing something else. Like, coaching tennis or something.








  • It is maybe less DIY friendly because the wheel will not stay on the hub without at least one bolt inserted. Once you realize that’s the case, you put the wheel on and one of the bottom lug bolts maybe 2-3 turns in to prevent the wheel from falling off. I don’t see how they would be any less safe than studs and nuts. You tighten them to the appropriate torque spec and will never lose a wheel. The only other disadvantage I see is that you’re not gonna be able to easily fix badly damaged threads, but when and how would that happen?
