Hoping someone comes out of leftfield, Wallace, Ellwood and Tugendhat all come across well, however, I don’t really know their politics in any detail. I was also hoping Truss might’ve been at the parties but don’t think she was invited !

Sounds straight forward and would also maybe suggest something like Xero accounting to maintain records However, just be careful with IR35 which is relevant where you only do personal contract work for one company. I don’t know what rules are with contracting with foreign companies but if you...

Agree with macca, a decent accountant will do a fair bit of the set up and should provide useful guidance. Ask around for some good recommendations If you’re setting it up on your own consider some of the following: Decide on on company name Find domain name (for email) via Names, Godaddy etc...

Yeah, agreed, hence the ‘hard to say without full details’ comment.

Yeah, Im a bit soft so kind of with you on this. From what I’ve read this (probably initial !) fine for him and Sunak related to the surprise birthday cake/party from Carrie. This was 2-3 months after Johnsons nearly died from Covid, some may or may not cut some slack because of this. I’m...

Almost as good as Fulham v City

Brilliant isn’t it. Just finished E7

Agreed and Ross. Think it will only be delaying the inevitable though

This is probably when we find out if sunak believes No 10 was behind the leaks about his wife If Sunak walks due to it being ‘the right thing to do’ after being found to have broken the law, it probably brings Johnson down with him. If he was already close to quitting after last week this could...

Bless her, think they can only get her and Fabricant out for strong messages of support

To be fair I’d imagine most pensions have firms like BP and Shell in them. Would’ve been easy for government to say to all the big boys ‘look, we’re cutting fuel duty, we expect you to pass on whole amount and if wholesale prices are dropping we expect these savings to be passed onto consumers...

State of that. Maybe cruel but I can’t watch him without laughing

I can’t believe there hasn’t been more of an uproar about petrol companies. They bumped up the prices by 30% when oil went to $140 per barrel end Feb and then it was high again mid/late March ($125ish I think) but cost per barrel has been declining ever since and is now around $100 per...

I think this is a bigger issue than the fine itself. Didn’t Johnson say in the House that rules hadn’t been broken ? Now, you can potentially wriggle out of that if (you claim) stuff went on without your knowledge…gets a bit trickier if you’ve been fined for breaking those rules yourself ! If...

I’m guessing it will come down to wages. Agents will be pushing higher wages/longer contracts as no transfer fee involved, waghorn being a prime example. We got Bidwell in and Kane for nominal in similarish circumstances ie both nearing end of contracts. I’d imagine unless there’s a couple of...

As I say, I know they work in certain settings ie face to face, patient to doctor etc. However Scotland have retained indoor mask wearing for far longer periods than us and still have measures in place yet have/have had higher rates ? This suggests in those settings, in the grand scheme of...

The only way you can be sure to avoid it is by staying away from other people !!! Easier said than done for most.

It might do, especially in certain specific settings, even though in general the data between England and Scotland suggests otherwise. However, as TGP comments highlight, and I’ve also seen this first hand, the NHS/health services need to be looking at the bigger picture including their own...

As i don’t know what the differences in the current testing requirements/regimes I thought I’d check rates for whole of the pandemic, bearing in mind Scotland, as well as being far less densely populated has also worn masks for a lot longer…

But the data doesn’t suggest face masks have that much affect on their own. I’ve just checked the data online. Scotland are still wearing face masks indoors yet their recent 7 day rate is higher than England’s ?
