In 2024/25 the Wildlife Trusts had a £13Million surplus according to their accounts but it appears they couldn’t find money to complete the purchase.
Please explain why taxpayers have had to put in £2M to buy this?

60% of households save an average of £45 when gas standing charges go. Which means that 40% are paying for it.
Next week, why has gas price gone up!!!

The fact that he's trying to pitch something and people are disrespectfully walking right in front of him... Not realizing that they are pre-emptively walking in front of the future worlds richest man and making as impactful pitch to humanity as he was in that moment.

I wanted to visualise Britain's state spending ahead of the Budget, so I've vibe coded an app which presents it as a disk drive.
Take a look at the tradeoffs and see if you can make the budget fit:

If Wildlife Trust is taking over, with their reluctance to carry out any predator control, I can’t help but feel this will be the the beginning of the end for the curlew there.
The government is funding one of England's biggest land purchases for nature.
£1.94 million to secure the future of The Rothbury Estate in Northumberland. @WildlifeTrusts will manage the estate for nature recovery.

Individuals who have never ran a business’s unfortunately will never understand.
They treat work like a one sided relationship.
Running a business is significantly more difficult than working a job.
This is something they cannot comprehend.
That actually hiring someone is doing that individual and the economy a massive favour.
Yet there’s very little appreciation.
Minimum wage increasing is just 1, of many pressures businesses face on a daily basis.
Running a business has been described as “learning to build a plane while flying it at the same time”
If these pressure continue, business have 2 choices.
1) Close down because they become untenable
2) Figure out how to scale without people.
Both solutions result in job losses.
Both of them for the workers who complain are a disaster.
Make it cheaper and easier to employee people and suddenly we’ll see the economy grow.

I missed this. It’s a serious scandal.

The pre-pandemic rate was £8.21/hour; £13.20/hour represents a more than 60% increase in five years.
People keep saying businesses who can't pay it shouldn't employ people.
So they're not.
EXCLUSIVE
John Healey will announce plans to increase the minimum wage by nearly 4 per cent but slow the rise for young people after warnings that they are being priced out of jobs
The Times has been told that the national living wage, which applies to those aged 21 and over, is expected to rise from £12.71 to around £13.20 — an increase of 3.9 per cent
However, Healey has decided not to repeat the big rises of the past two budgets in the national minimum wage, which applies to those aged 18 to 21
It will rise broadly in line with the rate for older workers - from £10.85 to around £11.27, an increase of 3.9 per cent
It effectively spells the end of Labour’s manifesto pledge to bring the “discriminatory” minimum wage for young people into line with the living wage for older workers in this parliament
The minimum wage increased by 26 per cent between 2025 and 2026, leading to stark warnings from employers that it risked impeding efforts to get 1 million “Neets” - young people not in education, employment or training - into work.
Healey alluded to the approach in an interview with The Times last week, in which he spoke of the importance of the “trade-off between the level of the minimum wage and the employment rate”

What an outstanding news reporter. If we had done what is shown in that video, we would have been arrested and jailed. Thank God there is no racism in this post.
I hope people are beginning to understand that the justice system is no longer protecting the citizens of our countries. I am under no illusion that our countries have been taken over.

再强调一遍，浏览外网或翻墙被派出所传唤，根本不用慌。
首先是网警从流量监控系统中标记了你，然后会通知你当地的派出所片儿警将你传唤问话。
你的不当言论，会被打印出来，放在你面前。
你的手机，会要求解锁，他们会检查你在群里，聊天软件里还说了什么。
民警是很忙，但如果接到系统派发的工单，再忙也要处理，不然就一直挂在系统里，影响KPI了。
处理这种事，民警作为体制内打工人，他的自由裁量权很大的。你其实是增加他们工作量的一个小麻烦。只要好好配合，他们没必要跟你计较太多。
所以只要保证流程合规，上交资料完整，应付检查就行了。但你如果要装逼，摆出不合作的姿态，那不好意思，想整你的途径和方法太多了，哈哈。
去了之后，态度好一点，姿态低一点，开口说：“领导，不好意思，给你添麻烦了。”
然后最重要的是问话环节，他问你答。你不要没事找事，自己多说乱说。不知道、不了解、没做过的，直接就说不知道，别的一概不说。但你确实做过的，而且白纸黑字的放在你面前，那就不要抵赖。
不要说任何对抗性的言论。比如什么什么做的不对，所以我要批判。
如果你是因为不当发言被传唤，就说：“我理解错了意思，以为他在说什么，所以我才说了什么，表达有偏差。其实我不是这个意思。”
如果你是因为浏览了网站被传唤，就说我是不小心点到的，我一点开它就推送了，我也不知道为什么。
只要你态度好，把事情往小了说，一般也就是记录一下。没人愿意增加自己的工作量，对不对？
笔录确认没问题，签字盖章，这事儿就翻篇儿了。
千万不要装逼硬刚。
还有，虽然翻墙了，但什么该说、什么不该说，作为一个成年人，生在红旗下，长在春风里，接受了国家这么多年的教育，自己心里应该有点逼数。
毕竟你爸不是李刚，就算是，也不行。
