Farms are holding back on reservoirs and other resilience work because it would push the value over the inheritance tax threshold. That’s not planning for the next generation – that’s being forced to choose between the farm surviving the drought or surviving the tax. Scrap the family farm tax in the Budget. In fact, scrap inheritance tax for all.
hey @WhichUK can you please investigate multiple breaches of UK law by @SklumLoveDesign particularly in relation to bundling orders without consent and breaches of 14 day refund rules. Facebook documents multiple and repeated breaches
the car sales business is clearly full of misogyny. Walking into @LookersGroup %Chester not one of the sales team (no customers there) bothered to get up from their desk when i asked about ex demo @KiaUK EV3 for sale. Complete contrast with @MINIUK in Llandudno Junction
who could not have been more helpful and arranged a test drive on the spot. Sadly the Mini doesn’t have the range I need but I will walk over hot coals before ever walking into an @LookersGroup showroom again and they missed out on guaranteed sale.
I have now sourced one 100 miles away from a @KiaUK dealer who are interested in selling their cars rather than having them sitting on the forecourt unlike @LookersGroup who clearly enjoy looking at them rather than selling them (as the number on the front clearly show)
RIP #dollyparton a female icon fabulous talent and to me a feminist succeeding in an era which constantly put women down. Her business acumen philanthropy and talent will live on in her music
🚨 Former MI6 chief Sir Alex Younger delivered brutal Brexit truths last year:
“Putin would’ve been absolutely delighted by our decision [to leave the EU] and so would Xi.”
“We’ve made ourselves irrelevant.”
“France has effectively eclipsed us.”
“Brexit has marginalised us.”
Brexit wasn’t Britain taking back control. It was Britain voluntarily surrendering influence, while Putin and Xi watched with delight.
hey @SklumLoveDesign waiting over 30 days for an order to be dispatched breaches UK consumer rights. #mysklumstory is waiting two months and appalling customer service. Hoping my followers will learn from my mistake and NEVER order from them
like most of rural UK my #electricitycost is linked to gas prices but we don’t have gas and have to buy oil in an unregulated market. Furthermore living in #wales we have the highest standing charges as our grid connectivity is not assessed on an all #wales basis #doublewhammy
on the @HMRCcustomers VAT support helpline. On hold for ages. Call picked up and then immediately hung up on. Presumably that counts as an “answered call”
Good news that the Murdoch press is finally throwing this poisonous grifter under a bus after a quarter of a century of indulging him. The bad news is that it will already have identified new captains to advance the corporate agenda
🚨 NEW: Nigel Farage appears to have breached MP rules after failing to declare that convicted criminal George Cottrell paid for his staff, security and social media output before 2024 election

what i know about football wouldn’t even fill the back of a postage stamp but i am very impressed with the #Tuchel press conference and his calmness and
common sense #worldcup
It's not just the exploitation of a tragedy.
JD Vance's picture of Britain - where migrants have led to a crime surge - is the opposite of the truth.

To protect jobs and create a level playing field, we use anti-dumping laws to stop imported goods being sold at below cost. AI is being sold at below cost, subsidised by shareholder capital, and its makers say it will cost millions of jobs. Shouldn't we level the playing field?
