    I should not have to do this. The Great War Forum has NO adverts. why here ?

    What adverts? Have you got some junk cookies that need clearing out, perhaps?

    I wonder if these sockets are wired in parallel? So either socket would power it up.

    The reason might be that this could be used in some other vehicle as well with different supply locations or it was a means to daisy-chain equipment so that it could provide an output for say a map reading light, the connectors look similar for that.

    I was wondering that, but aren't they both male?  I'd expect one to be female if was a daisy chain output?

  3. Unfortunately not as mine is an add-on because I don't have a 24V alternator, rather a 24V converter run off the 12V alternator.  I just looked at the internals and worked out what to do.  The AESP (2320-E-200-302) doesn't show the diagram for the TCB carrier variant, which is annoying.

    They put a Stalwart up against a hovercraft, at that site near Matchams on the Dorset border.

    Someone said they had a copy of the film, but it's not materialised yet.

    That will be QinetiQ Hurn these days, methinks.

    Its not anything to do with Sadiq Khan but the FCA, who want to stop dodgy money coming from abroad, so they then say to banks if this is not stopped we will fine Uk banks millions. The banks then are forced to close peoples accounts but the system has no appeal mechanism. 

    I think you misunderstood - my point was wondering whether Sadiq Khan would face the same issue exporting vehicles to Ukraine.

    How much of it is because the Government (and I mean the civil servants, not the politicians) want to sell brand new vehicles to Ukraine so they and that large weapons/vehicle company can make all the money

    Zero, I'd have thought - how long would it take to manufacture those vehicles?

    The easiest solution would be for the Government to TELL the bank concerned to disregard the Money Laundering Regulations in respect of Nick and exporting AFVs to Ukraine.  As I understand it, most of the money is coming from private sources rather than the Ukrainian government.  If the Government handled the sale, it would still have the problem of taking money from unverifiable sources.

    Ministers have indicated in Parliament that "the complete integrity of the Money Laundering Regulations is more important than facilitating the export of AFVs to Ukraine".  If you are in contact with your MP, of whatever political colour, ask them whether this is a sensible policy or not.

    I have been trying to help Nick all this year but have still failed to be able to do so.  I did find out that many banks have been quietly debanking the Defence Industry without anyone knowing.  Ministers are now on that case but still will not sort out Nick's problem.

    Thanks John - I've just pinged Penny Mordaunt, so if you manage to bump into her ...
