Posted on Fri, 06 Sep 2024
It looks odds on that CGT will be aligned with personal rates of taxation at 20/40/45% at the next budget. Probably with immediate effect from 30th October. Landlords are already selling up in droves. Labour in Wales are levying 200% council tax...

Posted on Sat, 07 Sep 2024
What a brilliantly original notion - the anthropomorphism of the Devil. You do these philosophical musings so well. Life is rarely black and white and was it ever greyer than attributing human frailties to Satan? Loved this.

Personally, I rather like corvids. There's...

"..and boilers get busy
to make our homes cosy."

Personally, I don't mind the end of summer at all. I adore autumn and winter...

Thanks for reading, Di. I think a lot more needs to more researched on this particular innovation before anyone can pontificate. In the meantime ...we speculate instead :)

"The summer imperceptibly is ending,
our path towards an end is wending..."

I am one of those who listen to Alfred N.Muggins. He makes a lot of sense.
I see there's a General Strike in Israel now with more calls for a ceasefire with Hamas. I guess there's only so much pain people will endure.
