I wonder if they are going to change the stupid system of pumping money into failing schools until the are "outstanding" and then slowly reduce funding because they obviously don't need it, until the school is failing again...
If you are getting a heat pump then your impact on the climate will probably be better than your current radiator configuration. Especially as more renewables are brought online.
This is the point I don’t really get, if their licence is days away from issue anyway why would Reeves meeting with them be a problem?
Because financial institutions, including the BoE have a lot more on the line, and need to keep reputational appearance even if politicians don't care because they will be out on the streets before the next election.
What's Reeves hoping to gain from this, while making claims of "cutting red tape"? It sounds like simple political interference, and as such she can fuck off.
Generally the BoE makes a lot of sense, and I don't see anything here that would change my position. I haven't seen whether Revolut has had their licence upgraded from limited yet, but that has to be due any day now that they've had their 1 year limited trial to prove operations.
When you are dealing with peoples money, I don't want these things to get rushed, and Reeves saying things like
Reeves has placed cutting red-tape on the financial services sector and other industries at the heart of her mission to turbocharge the UK’s faltering economy and has blamed over-cautious watchdogs for holding back growth.
Financial services is doing great. Probably one of the best performing parts of the UK, why don't you concentrate on literally anything else, like taxing unearned income?
There are a lot of Euro financial initiatives that the UK financial services drive and adopt, such as Open Banking and Open Finance.
Don't mistake the UK being outside of the EU with Financial Services in the UK, they see big picture plans and generally ignore the smaller petty politics.
In this case, as Wero gets adopted, it's in their best interests to support it otherwise there is a risk that customers would not be able to purchase when travelling and what's the point of adopting that risk when you could just support it?
There is the point where if the person had valid identification, and National Insurance, and was paid via HMRC, that the onus should be on notifying the business of a change of status. Whether that's the student or HMRC I don't know. They would notify the business on a change of required tax.
Didn't I read on here that one of the root causes is deer populations. Herds without predators are grazing away new shoots.
We should probably increase the amount of land allocated for forestry, and introduce some predator's. I think it could make rambling more interesting if there is the risk of encountering crocodiles and lions.
There have been several scams over the decades, which put the council into bankruptcy. A Union isn't going to ever accept a potential paycut, so they are stuck.
Waste collection doesn't want to be scheduled for the full 32 hours they are contracted so they can collect the overtime, and the council don't want to pay overtime for people working their normal hours. The only thing the council can do is cut the folks being paid the most, but the Union won't let that happen either.
Just increase council tax in Birmingham and separate out the waste disposal as a line item so that the people can see where their money is going.
Not even in the slightest. Metallica went far above and beyond everyone else hunting down little old ladies to sue.
99% of bands didn't make money from album sales, which is what makes all the hand wrangling over Spotify funny. Musicians idolise a world that never really existed.
Your article implies there are 25 million houses and 1 million is empty. [2]
The empty houses in the photos are not suitable for living in and should be condemned if they haven't already. Rebuilding a mid-terrace house is not simple and even after blow all of that we managed 1 million out of the 4 million required to at least have one home per family. That sounds like a terrible plan to work on the most expensive work and ultimately not make a dent in the issue.

More voted against facists than for. The Labour we got is betraying the voters by not following the policies they promised.

Good!

I was able to in the past, and I didn't meet those requirements.
Which you could do on the HMRC website for free. I understand thats digital...

Disliking paedos eating at Pizza Express doesn't mean that I don't have legitimate problems with leeches on society.
As for the quote, you are quite wrong. We criticise the king all the time, and refer to his brother as a nonce.
You don't mean king, you mean despots can't handle criticism.
Fuck the king.
Its been ongoing in Birmingham for a long time.
