General Discussion
As I said, there's plenty poking their noses into the the financial affairs of those lower down in society and as far as I am concerned what is good for the goose is good for the gander. Nothing to do with arrogance. Everything to do with a more equitable and fair society. Large landowners with tenant farmers for example. Howsabout a variation on the Right to Buy? Large landowners (large to be ...
It's as much my business as it is anyone else's. There's plenty poking their noses into the wealth (or, more to the point, lack of wealth) of thousands if not millions of others in this country right now. 'Bout time those at the bottom of the pile started to question the wealth and power of those at the top. That it is deemed to be legal does not necessarily make it morally right and certainly not ...
Depends what you mean by a 'bit' of money.
That DM article is a perfect example of the inequality of wealth in this country. And I can very easily post other links on here that show that by having land, wealthy landowners can further increase their wealth by getting various subsidies (paid for by the taxpayer one way or the other). And then of course there are the perfectly legal ways they have of avoiding paying tax - like setting up ...
Took the dog for a walk down that way yesterday. Haven't been that way for months so can't say if the boulders have been moved slightly or not since Kaz's first post but they are still there. Walked down Secmaton Rise and then turned left to go along Secmaton Lane towards the new housing development. Looks like earth moving machines are already on the land in question and that a path running ...
Some info on land ownership in Britain. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1328270/A-Britain-STILL-belongs-aristocracy.html (and yes I know that's from the Daily Mail but it is precisely because the DM is tory supporting that I have posted this link . I mean, you might expect The Mirror to carry such a story but the Daily Mail?!)
This possible black out due to freezing prices business.......... I was watching BBC News this morning and they had a discussion about this. A money saving/business type person said that some (all?) of the energy providers already offer price freeze deals - some for as long as until 2017 or so. Consumers just need to shop around to find them. Now, what I don't know is who is eligible for such ...
As per my first post - scroll down for more Exeter based Flybe vacancies. http://www.flybe.com/live/vacancies/jsp/ExistingVacancies.jsp
A Labour Party councillor I once knew had that played at her funeral. The best bit of it was that there were Tory councillors attending the service. Tee hee. You should have seen their faces! What a way to go eh?. Brilliant. Absolutely brilliant. I intend having it played at my funeral 'n all and in the absence of any tory councillors helping to see me off perhaps I should invite Paul and ...
A bit more info (apologies if those interested in all this already know what I am about to impart). All the info below obtained from TDC website. 1. Cllr Graham Price (in whose ward this potential development is located) has requested that it be debated and decided at a Full Planning Committee rather than being decided by an individual TDC planning officer. 2. The reasons that Cllr ...
