As far as ensuring the integrity of the data communication is concerned, you have two (or more) different systems running concurrently.
Validation does not ensure data integrity: it tells you when you've lost data integrity. There's a difference. You then have to work out what to do when they disagree.
What idiot came up with that route? You will never get Bangor and Groomsport to agree to being a lorry terminus or to have them thundering down the road past Crawfordsburn and Helen's Bay.
The existing road infrastructure for lorries and cars is in Larne on the OTHER side of Belfast Lough.

The newly completed M8 says "Hello, Malc".
It is 2 lanes almost all the way and jammed morning and night, giving it an M does not make it a motorway, it is merely a dual carriageway. Must surely be the only country in the developed world that does not have a proper road linking its two main cities and them not much more than 30 miles apart.
The A628 Woodhead Pass says hello, as a road linking equally sizable and proximate cities with, effectively, a high grade farm track.
"Under proportional representation, the party with the most votes won't get the most seats"
STV: Nonsense on stilts.
I'd love to learn about your alternative system that gives parties more seats than they stood for.
If you only stand for a quarter of the seats, the most you can win is [checks notes] a quarter of the seats...
d'Hondt with party primaries to determine the candidate order on the list.
Constituencies of around 10 seats to give proportional results.
That doesn't overcome the problem. If you don't get enough candidates, you won't win the seats you'd otherwise have won.
In addition, it's eminently possible that the distribution of votes could end up with the party with most votes not getting the most seats when taken over the entire country, especially with multiple parties close to each other in vote share in the low twenties.
And I say that as someone who's preferred voting system would be D'Hondt open lists based on counties. (So there's a known geographical 'constituency' involved and some local representation guaranteed)

I know that I'm going to be accused of anti-Buttigieg behaviour, but there is no way that Buttigieg can survive close inspection as we saw on the Debate:
An intention for a proposal for a pathway towards expectations, is a hell of a vision right?
Depends whether that's front and centre in his campaign (in which case I agree) or buried deep down and written in two minutes by a minor team-member (in which case, who cares?).
I'm guessing the latter, because the tweet would highlight it if it were the former.

According to BF, Sanders has more chance of winning New Hampshire than Buttigieg has of winning Iowa. There`s some value here somewhere - any ideas?
The Iowa winner will never be declared, so there is no value in Iowa.
As for N.Hampshire the tradeoff is Buttigieg for Klobuchar, can they switch poll positions fast enough for Klobuchar to come in second instead of Buttigieg ?
There is also the minor chance that Buttigieg collapses so much that Klobuchar might win, but it's minor at the moment.

Never done the Woodhead Pass, and haven't driven Snake Pass for a long time. My Dad was born in Glossop and his Mum always lived there, but she died a few years ago and I've had no reason to go there since the funeral. Snake Pass is beautiful, but the traffic can be terrible. I'm sure I hear it mentioned about half the times I hear R5 traffic reports!

Buttigieg has more delegates (just) and so do you you think BF will pay out on this (as this is their rule for this market) even if Iowa does not formally declare a winner, as you say?
Otherwise, how are they going to deal with o/s bets? What about those that have already "cashed out"?

There's no such thing as "cashing out" on the exchange, it's a fiction. If the market is voided say then all lays and backs are cancelled to zero. You can't spend the profit in a market even if you're all green till it is settled.

Snake Pass is great at 8am on Sundays, but there really needs to be a proper road between Manchester and Sheffield for those that need to make the journey - as opposed to those who want to ‘go for a drive’.

As he isn't a politican there is a risk (medium to high) that it will not work.

Thanks for this - I`m often scratching my head over this subject. If what you say is correct, how come when I "cash out" my BF cash balance goes up and the increase can be used to bet on other things (or, presumably, withdraw)?
This happened yesterday - when i placed £20 on RLB my BF cash balance went up not down. (I have lots of conflicting bets on this market.)
Can Labour become a Nationalist Left party in Britain ?
Aka, defending the nation from "nasty foreigners" while throwing money to the people ?
Sinn Fein are strongly pro-migrant rights, much as most left/liberal parties are, and they achieved their advances on a typical left/liberal platform.
Their qualitatively different type of nationalism was not the reason they gained votes. In any case, it would be impossible to emulate it in the UK, because the UK doesn't have the same history. Closest thing I can think of is to talk about some superpower, run by a megalomaniac, that wants to destroy the NHS....
It's also worth noting that Sinn Fein got a much smaller share of the vote than Labour did in the UK, although the left-wing vote as a whole in both countries was very similar.

The M8 is about as pleasant to drive along as the A19 between Boro and Sunderland where single track lanes join perpendicular to people driving at 80mph....
Those exits have all been closed now. Did 120mph+ along that stretch in the early hours of Saturday morning.

It does impact a project my company was wanted to be on, end client won't accept PSC contractors, I don't have enough interest to fully staff the project with permanent staff.

Edinburgh is near the distance limit of daily Newcastle commuting. Sheffield-Manchester is 30 miles.
Edinburgh-Newcastle is getting piecemeal but steady dualling, reducing the distance you are behind any one lorry. It will get there, just as connecting Newcastle to the motorway network eventually got there in 4 mile chunks.
Manchester-Sheffield is not getting dualled anytime soon, nor rail improved. Sheffield ought really to be the 4th arm of the travel to work zone of the Northern Powerhouse. Currently, it is not.
