They TRIED to be classified as not a crisp, but the High Court wouldn't let them. Quote Procter & Gamble will be forced to pay tens of millions of pounds in VAT after losing a legal battle with the taxman over its Pringles snack. The Court of Appeal ruled in favour of the Revenue, which has long maintained that Pringles constitute a potato snack and are, therefore, liable for VAT http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/business/8060204.stm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xann Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 Quote US private healthcare firm handed £7million NHS contract to rank patients EXCLUSIVE: Donald Trump once praised £184billion global giant UnitedHealth Group which divides NHS patients into high, medium and low risk groups sparking fears people could be turned down for ops because of age or weight Mirror We're getting priced up.

snowychap Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 Huff Post: Quote Tory MPs are banned from using the terms “Brexit” and “no deal” when talking about the UK’s future relationship with the EU, a leaked government script has revealed. ... “Brexit” should only be used in reference to “a historical event that took place on 31 January 2020”, the script says – confirming revelations made by HuffPost UK in December. MPs are also told to dial down their enthusiasm and refrain from using words like “ambitious”, “unique” and “bespoke” when talking about future trading relationships, “or anything else that can be taken to mean anything other than a typical FTA [free trade agreement] of the CETA [Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement, or Canada-style deal] type”. “If hyperbole is absolutely essential, only make reference to a deal ‘at least as good as’ CETA,” the script goes on. ...rest on link Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HanoiVillan Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 The Conservatives have been having these extremely lucrative games of tennis for years now, and every time I hear about them I feel profoundly depressed about how blatant the corruption in British politics is. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seat68 Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 No matter how rich I could be, paying to play tennis with any politician would be right near the bottom of my list.

bannedfromHandV Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 Who carried out the report into the Russian links and why can it not be released independently? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowychap Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 1 hour ago, bannedfromHandV said: Who carried out the report into the Russian links and why can it not be released independently? The Intelligence and Security Committee. The Committee was disbanded when Parliament was dissolved for the election and the report won't be published until there is a new committee to approve publication - there is, I suppose, a possibility that, even though No. 10 has approved the report for publication, the new committee might decide not to publish it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
