@BeyondAReasona2@carolvorders@thetimes@JCalvertST That’s exactly the point though - if we do not expect taxation to apply to these “businesses” then why are you claiming we should expect other “normal” practices to apply?
@BeyondAReasona2@carolvorders@thetimes@JCalvertST Except they only “own” it because it was “seized” (ie stolen) by previous monarchs - and they have only managed to keep the estate intact due to numerous tax breaks including no inheritance tax
Great article by @thetimes today on the income made by the Royals from the NHS, the Army, and ultimately taxpayers. @RachelReevesMP how about you start taxing this lot, instead of adding VAT to kids schooling?
In the same way we don’t throw litter in @Royal_Greenwich Greenwich Park, there should be limits to noise pollution. The fair in Blackheath is ruining the park this weekend!
@Gatwick_Airport Hi Jamie, this was definitely not the E-gates queue. It was a lovely short queue for children over 10 and adults to go through, separate to the e-gate queue…
Hey @Gatwick_Airport, what’s with the new “no kids under 10” queues? Have we not suffered enough travelling with kids that were now forced to queue 10 times longer than those without kids?
@mtpennycook@WillmottDixon have also failed to sign it - and they have a big development in Greenwich which they built with ALL flammable cladding, no firebreaks and flammable insulation as the cherry on the (molten!) cake.
@HannahAlOthman@thetimes didn’t realise I parked on a paid area near the QE Hospital in Greenwich. Received a Penalty Charge Notice 8 weeks late, due to the @RoyalMail strikes. Now not allowed to pay fine and been told details passed to debt collectors. How is this allowed?
@maxormark @ParkingWise I submitted a complaint to IPC who are apparently a code of conduct only for the complaint to be rejected within hours. Then I saw someone from the IPC sharing a LinkedIn post by @ParkingWise and remembered they’re all chums
@maxormark @ParkingWise How did you appeal? I’ve received a penalty charge notice from them for QEH. It’s a fair penalty (I’m not from the UK and didn’t realise I had to pay!), but arrived 2 months late due to postal strikes. @ParkingWise say my details have been passed to debt collectors! So unfair
@Royal_Greenwich Elverson Road station has become a tip. It’s hard to walk over the pedestrian bridge as you have to tread your way through heaps of rubbish just strewn around. @TfL@LewishamCouncil who is responsible for this area?
@Newsfromthefut4 @OnlyWayIsLowey I agree leasehold has many many issues but they’re minimised with a decent RTM company. We leaseholders seem to think freehold is cost free - but it’s a big financial burden too.
@Newsfromthefut4 @OnlyWayIsLowey I have a leasehold flat and now a freehold house. Whatever the costs of leasehold, now with the new government rules I can guarantee an old house will cost me 10 times more.
The Building Safety Act should have freed most leaseholders from liability - but this is not happening in reality
Building landlords such as @AvivaUK are using loopholes to avoid liability for fire-risk flat repairs
