https://www.theguardian.com/business/2024/sep/14/how-eu-landmark-apple-tax-ruling-gave-ireland-13bn-euros-it-didnt-want I hadn't quite realised that the mega-rich (Farage, Banks, et al) saw brexit as high tax threat. The vote for brexit was a vote to keep the rich rich, and a confidence trick...

Please do. I've done the same for you.

He was cracking a little joke, which you didn't get.

I can't be bothered to reply to rants like this.

This relentlessly negative blame game is really boring. Seems to be a major feature on the right. People live different lives nowadays, often don't stay in their family neighbourhood and may find their family widely dispersed. Add poor housing and low wages and there is a problem of care for the...

I made an effort to restore some heavy old woody blades freehand. Not that difficult once a method worked out - blade in a holder - 12" length of 2x1" with a saw kerf in it, so you can get force of two hands on it. Seemed to work best with an old oil stone I bought, curved end to end and I guess...

International action effective? https://www.theguardian.com/business/2024/sep/14/how-eu-landmark-apple-tax-ruling-gave-ireland-13bn-euros-it-didnt-want Gradually flushing them out. No hiding places...

The fact that you pay taxes makes no difference. The NHS is for all.

My first hospital excursion 12 years ago was perfect too. Rescued in the snow by ambulance after breaking quadriceps tendons (an extremely painful experience). Rushed off to Derby Royal. Needs an op within 24 hours or problems can follow. Was done following morning. 2 nights in. Slow recovery...

it's just so much easier and quicker without, as I keep having to repeat! :rolleyes:

Not at all, I didn't think so anyway. :giggle:

Ooo-er! Carry on Nursing!

My first thought is that you could do the doors as a separate item, not built in with the furniture. A foldaway room partition, independently covering a space for the furniture.

Yes you just need to relax a little more often and not go off on a rant!

Looks good! An odd beast as you say. I've done several of the normal 3 bay bay windows, but not bowed. Nearly got the job on a Georgian shop bow which had curved timber and curved glass to match but mostly missing and replaced by flat. Had to research the bowed glass and found it could be done...

What, nurses are a lazy lot? Doctors too perhaps? What about the cleaners, are they all slackers too? Scary - the NHS just full of slackers. :oops: Is that why we have huge waiting lists?

Really? Would fewer resources be more effective? Seems unlikely. Very weird how so many line up to protect the mega rich! Why is this? I guess it's just old fashioned conservatism; change is bad, best to leave things as they are, as change would likely make them worse. Plus reliance on the...

Funny that! Claptrap is the word! They've always said similar things about labourers standing around holes leaning on their shovels etc. The point is - you are very often going to notice nurses etc when they aren't doing anything, in between jobs, eating pies in a break (how awful), standing...

Yes, and they are not invisible. Yep. Plenty to get going at. Not if you dig a little. Much of it is not, which is where you start of course. The more opaque then the more profitable would be higher investment in HMRC, which was cut by the tories on behalf of their mega rich sponsors.

Most of them live in full view. Their assets too are usually in full view (land, property, other goods) and can be taxed easily. Their transactions too must emerge in the fullness of time. No hiding place! Here's just one. He wouldn't miss a few million and admits it honestly...
