I'm so sad to have to ask in this way but I'm really struggling to find a way to give mum a funeral that honours her memory. if there's any way you can help it would make such a huge huge difference to me even if that means just sharing this post.

@ChrisXtopher73 @bierkonceagain @ojvhteuhyhes So cut your losses and sell it, ideally to the tenants. If it's so bad for you, stop being a landlord

@Sewelld22 @canth0ldout It was £73 before fees for pitch standing in 2025, and it's £85 for next year. £12 not an ideal increase but it does depend if he's needing to pay more out for the venue, crew and band, etc

@SageoftheShire @sp4rkl3jumpr0p3 Rent controls have worked *in the UK* - look at the first and second world wars. It's not coincidence that the post world war 2 period - where there were rent controls and massive council house building - was when we had the best supply of housing for everyone.

[C @ComradeChoppy]

@SageoftheShire @sp4rkl3jumpr0p3 So it sounds like what we need is rent controls AND massive council house building programmes AND policies to stop any developer just sitting on land and attempting to artificially drive up prices

@Sheff36 @Steven_Swinford If a job needs experience it shouldn't be paying the minimum wage, whatever the age of the employee. Minimum is exactly that - the bare minimum that should be paid

@Robnonumber @whattfarmer @BurnsideWasTosh @Seanchuckle EDI is equality, diversity and inclusion and that's important in the UK because a lot is about adhering to the equality act by treating everyone the same. DEI is diversity, *equity* and inclusion and the equity part is about outcomes. It's based on different legal approaches.

@allnewtomorrow @SamanthaAsumadu They did come up with it, this is just an extension to powers introduced by the Tories in 2015. They paused it during lockdown and now it's restarted Labour are increasing the reach but this is very much a policy that Cameron's government came up with

[C @ComradeChoppy]

@BareLeft @breadandposes I think that's assuming more joined up cross government planning than there actually is ... HMRC have been trying to crack down on side hustles since pre-GE because 2024 is the first year they're getting proper data for ebay/vinted/air bnb etc

@breadandposes Is this the first Green Party panelist in a month? Interesting to see when Green politicians get an invite

using government calculations for climate harm, burning Jackdaw's gas will cause an estimated £16.1 billion in global damage and over 8,000 heat-related deaths.

all of this for 27 jobs and no impact on gas prices.

no other way to describe this than an act of violence.

@judeinlondon @Twangberry Even just lots of older UK flats and houses. My old flat had a dishwasher in the kitchen which I did like because I hate washing up, but it took away cupboard space to the extent that I had to store *a lot* of things either in the oven or outside the kitchen.

[Ewan Gibbs @ewangibbs]

Jackdaw will do little to change either the cost of gas or the UK's supply situation. We were a net exporter of gas into the early 2000s but we've now been through a long period of falling production. More than half of the gas we burn now is imported. Jackdaw won't change that.

@itfc_louis2 But why is it obvious? It doesn't have to be this way. I've visited plenty of countries where the pre-booked and walk up price was exactly the same. It should be possible for train users to make last minute decisions without paying a premium

@faemarismocca @LukasMukasPukas Yeah for sure, personally I do think the external factors have always been more of an issue - I can see for him that being further compounded the more well known he becomes, with other people feeling they have a right to judge any relationship he's in

[C @ComradeChoppy]

@faemarismocca @LukasMukasPukas It's very similar from the perspective of a bi woman where the difference between someone being politically queer or not makes a big difference, and then it becomes a numbers game to find that subsection of a subsection - or you just date people who arent the opposite gender 🤷‍♀️

[C @ComradeChoppy]

@faemarismocca @LukasMukasPukas Ehhh maybe, but if you're in a straight presenting relationship there's often a lot of external pressure towards conformity and even with other people in the community you can find you have wildly different interpretations of what it means to break gender norms

@iggigg They are gorgeous

@hate_nostalgia I have a soup maker and a food processor, so veg into food processor for chopping and then everything into the soup maker, next to no actual prep required by me and can then freeze portions of it for even less prep when reheating. Otherwise literally just add veg to pot noodle

@steamedhamms Isn't that kind of what CWU tried to do with their podcast?
