So the FTE for driving from Swansea to Carmarthen in a taxi is £104,500 if you work for the council.

My considered opinion is that it stinks.

Exactly, there's politicians tied up in this as well.

Seems sensible to me, too many people at the top covering each others arses.

I can't see anything but poor economic performance for the first three months of this year as the budget effects come through. Today's bond sale did not go well, I expect that Reeves will end up having to take some sort of action.

They will pay £250M in Corporation Tax if they make the numbers. They could make £750 Million net profit on £6 or £7 Billion turnover but that depends on how the economy goes. Profit could be much less and they will need to reinvest some of the £750M.

I would not like to.be in Retail.

They could swallow the NI increase but if they think can operate by increasing prices there's nothing stopping them.

There's no monopoly or obligation here to buy their goods, if people are happy to buy their goods at a given price then that's up to their customers.

The victims have been ignored in favour of political bollocks.

As I said inappropriate stuff from Musk, which actually diverts from the real issues.

When people raise the issue of ' identifying those in authority who turned a blind eye' I think we can expect some diversion.

Musk posts all sorts of stuff about all sorts of things often in inappropriate ways. US politics is rough stuff these days.

Behind the noise, there is a case here in that no actions have been taken from the 2022 inquiry to protect vulnerable girls, there has been no redress for any victim and this has been going on since 1990.

When it comes to grooming gangs the figures are different.

For decades successive governments have made it increasingly difficult for small busineses in favour of big business. Reeves continues the trend.
When visiting France, Spain, Italy etc. you see many more small businesses in the centre of towns and cities.
