I think that if say 85% of your tax bill goes to essential services - NHS, Highways, Emergency Services, Defense, Education etc, you should be able to choose how to distribute the rest yourself. For example you may prefer the rest of it to go on building green infrastructure, or give extra to healthcare. This could esily be done with current technology and may soften the blow.

Try it. Depending on variables it may or may not work. Nothing to lose if you have the plant on site.

Unless you actively opt out of certain features, you are basically giving companies free reign to record whatever they like. A bit more about 'smartphones' https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-34444233

https://www.businessinsider.com/theresa-may-defeated-by-mps-fighting-to-stop-a-no-deal-brexit-2019-1?r=US&IR=T What happens next then? I think a no deal situation would be trouble. No one likes Theresa May's sketchy plan.

Great project Steve. I wish this existed when I was contracting full time.

You spent your career as a 'Yesman' for the establishment. I wouldn't expect you to get it. However, you have said that you'd vote Green in the past. It's only racists who think the BNP is a good thing. Lib Dems went tits up because they lied to their biggest client base (18 - 25) about tuition fees. People have long memories. I'd vote green if I thought there was a chance of them winning. In the mean time I'd vote for Labour under Corbyn, he's the only politician I've come across who comes across as honest. In my opinion.

I think that you ought to get a new hobby.

Tricky customer Quibbling price after emergency job, what would you do?
Mark J replied to Agent-Arb's topic in General chat
Aye, you have to at least double your workers day rates, plus your own before you factor in the inconvenience and ultimately, the job itself. There was some good advice on here a few years back that suggested that 'mate's rates' are a bad idea. Either bill it for the full price or do it gratis. Keeps things real. -
Root compaction versus path lifting, what best to do?
Mark J replied to AJStrees's topic in Tree health care
You could put a sign up explaining why you built it too. It may get people thinking about trees more.- 19 replies

A fair number of homeless people suffer from mental health issues. Perhaps it's something to do with that.
