I’ve not seen this level of failure to deliver since the amazon guy threw my package over the wrong fence and into a neighbour’s pool two blocks away.

jobs.ac.uk and search for media technician, av support, av manager, film technician, sound technician etc etc.

Our climate is changing and we need research like this to ensure that we can still grow food productively in regions where weather is causing crops to fail.

Calm down there, Ye Wenjie…

Marcy’s ears ☺️☺️

the other lines are from the same game. lazy.

you’ll put those savings into a stocks and shares ISA where any gains from stocks are tax free guaranteed.

If you have more than £20k a year to put away into stocks and shares then yeah you need to pay some tax bruv.

I meant the one on the left but ok

who’s the cute one?

will anything I say be held against me?

those contracts take years to tender and likely have huge clawback clauses. I doubt that Labour got into power and immediately signed contracts for things like this. More likely it was more expensive to stop it.

I have a Hasselblad 500 and I like to fill the whole frame with interesting architecture at odd angles. 1920s and 30s art deco is especially good to photograph.

Actually Ovo energy is trying to do that - they estimate a reduction in your energy bills based on installing an energy efficient system like solar, heat pump, loft insulation, etc. Then they carry out the work and you pay it off gradually through your energy bills.

The challenge I think is then if you want to leave them then you have to either repay that debt or the next energy company has to assume it. There’s a few ways it could be abused and of course the savings take years or even decades to pay off, so there’s a few kinks to work out.

I hope they manage to get it working though, it will be big for UK customers.

I feel like capitalists are waiting on some magic solution like some chemical we spray into the air or a miracle new fuel source.

The established suggestions from scientists (“fly less, stop buying SUVs/Trucks, eat less meat, consider a heat pump and solar panels” etc) doesn’t support the narrative that we can continue unabated infinite growth with no consequences.

Far less. In the UK half of all wealth is owned by the top 10% but there is very little concentration in the top 1% compared with the USA and other nations like Italy, Russia and China. Also, the degree of wealth inequality has mostly remained consistent for the last 10-15 years.

Another factor to consider is that for the top 10% (which in the UK you are in if you earn more than £52,000) hold around 50% of their wealth in pensions (which are taxed) and around 32% in properties on average.

Have a look at ONS data to back up what I’ve said. https://www.ons.gov.uk/visualisations/dvc1727/Fig2/datadownload.xlsx

I still do believe that there is a better balance to be found with tax and wealth, but I’m less convinced that the answer is solely based on going after a 0.1% of wealthy.

it scratches an itch
