    Budget

    Provide a recent link. I can provide an old one that illustrates one of the problems for makers- the country doing the offshore stuff starts producing themselves and catch up on development and maybe even win in that area. Taiwan and chips are an example of that. Trump accuses them of stealing...

    Budget

    If costs are passed on that does not apply. in facts costs are known to have increased to maintain and increase profits. It's just not so noticeable as general inflation effects are. In fact a recent figures on food is 3%. Smaller businesses will be getting rate relief - they say not enough,

    Budget

    My main interest is the OBR etc expected outcome of the changes. NI and it seems min wage will result in a small short term increase in inflation as it will be largely passed on to customers. They then look at the overall picture and conclude that due to wage increases people are still likely to...

    Budget

    There has been more independent analysis of the farmers situation. One thing that is clear is the fact that the gov's claims of the number effected is way way closer to reality than claims that are being made. The remaining aspect relates to joint ownership and inheritance laws which can result...

    Budget

    Some of the numbers kicking about on NI increase costs have included the min wage increase. Where one was broken down it indicated 50-50. So don't increase the min wage as a solution? Of course she is aware of the effects but what is the alternative? Bear in mind that borrowing to maintain...

    Will Trump deliver what he has promised?

    All that video means to me is that some of Trump's aims can not be introduced rapidly.

    That 0.1% is last quarter which ends Sept. The ONS report goes into a lot of detail and puts the earlier figures down to wage increases. :) So if you want to be confused read it. All of it...

    They Shoot Horses, don't they?

    Might be due to the likelihood of mission creep as more conditions get added over time. Wills - can be a pain in the neck and no real need if some one has descendants unless they want to depart from the usual rule(s).

    Budget

    A pension fund will be paying out pensions. The ones she is looking at are not new. Actuaries also figure in running them. The pension paid may have inflation increases built in but that is often clamped at some level. Or they might not. They also may include and initial cash payment when some...

    Budget

    Wages have generally increased during the period of higher inflation. Public sector and min wage more recently. So cost of living increases have at least been partially offset for all.

    Will Trump deliver what he has promised?

    No one knows what Trump will actually do in a number of different areas. These long range missiles have a range of 300km and can be fired with the usual mobile launcher. No details yet on how or where they can be used.

    The government plans to merge the 86 council pension funds - which include £354bn in investments and are run by local government officials - into "megafunds" run by fund managers. From the link you posted. Go look at pension laws and same for trustees. Here is a starter with links to more...

    No she is mostly saying that merging the funds allow larger investments and adds reduces risk. How they are run. They have their own set of laws and also guidance for trustees that include getting investment advice as a must. Council etc defined benefit ones. She also has an interest in other...

    They Shoot Horses, don't they?

    Some seem to be rewriting the law that has being put forward. Reading what ever they like into it. A judge gets a mention so a trial is needed. That may not be the case. Canada is an example of what can happen. Initially just terminally ill. People with other types of problems campaign for...

    Panorama - The Smart Meter mess

    My take from offgen is that they requested a halt in switching people to prepay. They then added some considerations to be checked before switching. So suppliers then announced that they will fit them if needed. I assume after the checks have been made. There has also been changes to what...

    Panorama - The Smart Meter mess

    פעם שבו המונה החכם עובד בצורה מושלמת. יכול אפילו להגדיר כמה קריאות ביום נלקחות. 5 גרם בסדר שם - אחרים מתקלפים. כאן שלי לא. כמה שזה צריך להיות מוזר להשתמש ברשת הסלולרית. אין בעיות עם זה בנייד. סיבת התאמתם - קלה - אין צורך בקוראי מונים. כנראה גם הערכות טובות יותר על שטרות. ani mevaker bemekum...
