Scroll down for: A Home and Small Business Viewpoint by Len Tondel, from 1st February 2022

By way of explanation. The term 'home business' consists of two words. 'Business' is the second one; it's there to qualify and support the word 'home' and all that goes with it - and not vice versa. Consequently, we also list below, items which are of interest and value to the home. Whether in its context as an office or as a part of your family and lifestyle but always directed at the improved prospects and enjoyment that running a business from home, in its entirety, can bring.

For a current, multi-part overview of starting and running a business from home, go here: http://www.homebusiness.org.uk/features.htm


28.02.2022: Cost of living crisis will get worse as a result of Russian sanctions, minister admits. https://uk.yahoo.com/news/cost-living-crisis-worse-due-122916096.html Not much point in applying them, then. Other than in benefits to the murder industry, the fake propaganda industry and share traders who will shortly be cashing in on the crisis.

UK energy firms ‘chasing customers to pay more than they can afford’. https://www.msn.com/en-gb/news/uknews/uk-energy-firms-chasing-customers-to-pay-more-than-they-can-afford/ar-AAUmRPu?ocid=msedgntp Which 'UK energy firms'? Or does the gutter media mean 'foreign energy firms' screwing UK customers? The ones whose massive advertising revenue the media keeps taking.

Top Turdies call for 'burdensome' travel checks to be ditched. https://uk.yahoo.com/news/top-tories-call-burdensome-travel-065251797.html They should have stayed in the EU then.

27.02.2022: UK households face biggest fall in living standards since 1950s, say experts. https://www.theguardian.com/business/2022/feb/26/uk-households-face-biggest-fall-in-living-standards-since-1950s-say-experts And at least in the 1950s people could take care of themselves whereas today, all they have is the worst government in British history and the offshore gutter media.

Households could get £150 energy rebate quicker with direct debit, say councils. https://www.aol.co.uk/money/households-could-150-energy-rebate-104239724.html

Ukraine-Russia crisis: UK pledges to supply more arms to Ukraine. https://www.scotsman.com/news/national/uk-pledges-more-arms-for-ukraine-as-russians-position-at-outskirts-of-kyiv-3587786 Still more obscene taxpayer-subsidised profits for Brexit Britain's American-owned murder industry. Otherwise, just more NATO propaganda while pissing in the ocean as far as Putin is concerned.

Roman Abramovich handed $450m dividend from Russian mining group. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2022/feb/25/roman-abramovich-handed-450m-dividend-from-russian-mining-group That will obviously help out with his sportwashing activities. And the continuing support of Israeli terrorists and their murderous, permanent invasion of Palestine. As not reported by NATO's semitic, gutter propaganda.

Macron tells French farmers: Ukraine war will weigh on you, and it will last. https://uk.yahoo.com/news/macron-tells-french-farmers-ukraine-080233583.html What weighs on French farmers is their feudal farming model; massive yet inefficient overproduction constantly supported by the European taxpayer (especially whenever French elections are approaching); their livelihoods being used as a political football for long before the 'Ukraine war'; corrupt, lying and stupid politicians; and a lack of intelligence, commitment and creativity by the farmers and Chambers of Agriculture themselves who are under no pressure to diversify - because of endless 'subventions' and 'primes' financed by European taxpayers. Still. We musn't let facts get in the way of a NATO member's pre-election propaganda.

26.02.2022: Building a strong UK economy can help fight international aggression, Sunak says. https://www.aol.co.uk/money/building-strong-uk-economy-help-141240435.html Does this include international agressors such as America, its Coalition of Evil and NATO (North American Terrorist Organisation)? Nudging 40 countries invaded and 40 million deaths since the end of the Second World War alone. Or would that be 'anti-semitic' and bad for business? Still, at least the public has confirmation again of where its taxes are going to be spent. On rising prices, inflation and bankers' and corporate bosses' bonuses.

Thousands identified as suspected modern slavery victims fail to be referred for government support. https://www.msn.com/en-gb/news/uknews/thousands-identified-as-suspected-modern-slavery-victims-fail-to-be-referred-for-government-support/ar-AAUhUyO?ocid=msedgntp These also being part of the Turdy regime's fake employment statistics comprising zero hours contracts and the so-called 'gig' economy.

Food prices set to rise and inflation could hit 8.2% due to Ukraine conflict. https://www.aol.co.uk/money/food-prices-set-rise-inflation-143925776.html It's a good job this 'Ukraine conflict' came along, eh? Or the price increases and inflation which were already well under way once Brexit was announced, wouldn't have any more political and media lies to cower behind.

Three million English homes in fuel poverty in 2020 – before surging prices hit. https://www.aol.co.uk/money/3-16m-english-homes-fuel-113357266.html '2020', eh? Well that's obviously because Putin was already planning his invasion of Ukraine. Albeit, as not reported by gutter propaganda at the time.

PM to push for Russian ban from banking system Swift after Ukraine invasion. https://www.aol.co.uk/money/calls-intensify-ban-russia-swift-175142767.html The only reason the Bent Boris propaganda machine is circulating this story is because he knows it ain't gonna happen - but hopefully, it will help play a part in covering him in the smell of shit 'n roses from his own criminal transgressions.

Russian oligarchs who bankrolled Turdies wanted to stop Jeremy Corbyn getting to power, minister claims. https://www.msn.com/en-gb/news/uknews/russian-oligarchs-who-bankrolled-tories-wanted-to-stop-jeremy-corbyn-getting-to-power-minister-claims/ar-AAUfgia?ocid=msedgntp As did Blairite war criminals continuing to evade justice. Tax-dodging, offshore corporates. And the taxpayer-subsidised, offshore, serial-lying, fake news, fake conspiracy, British gutter media (and propaganda.)

The ways North Korea makes money, from trade to theft. https://www.msn.com/en-gb/money/other/the-ways-north-korea-makes-money-from-trade-to-theft/ss-AAUgIp7?ocid=msedgntp Just like 'Brexit' Britain, then. The world's tax-dodging, money-laundering centre.

25.02.2022: eBay Tumbles as Customers Log Out, Online Shopping Wanes. https://www.msn.com/en-gb/money/other/ebay-tumbles-as-customers-log-out-online-shopping-wanes/ar-AAUfs6D?ocid=msedgntp

Shoppers return to high street despite ‘rapid’ price rises. https://www.msn.com/en-gb/news/newslondon/shoppers-return-to-high-street-despite-rapid-price-rises/ar-AAUfDAl?ocid=msedgntp

UK cost-of-living crisis will be ‘driven by war’ as petrol and food prices soar, warns Tom Tugendhat. https://www.independent.co.uk/news/business/news/uk-cost-of-living-crisis-b2022160.html Oh, that's handy. Is this the same 'cost of living crisis' which was already well advanced before the (fake) 'war'? The one which was being 'driven by Brexit and a lying, corrupt, incompetent, criminal Turdy regime'?

Russian troops try to seize Chernobyl nuclear plant amid warnings over spread of radioactive waste. https://www.aol.co.uk/news/russian-troops-try-seize-chernobyl-152125475-160407474.html Is this the same 'Chernobyl' always referred to as 'Russian' by western gutter propaganda where hundreds of Russians voluntarily sacrificed their lives to contain radioactive fallout which was now it seems, actually caused by the Ukrainians? As not accurately reported by western gutter propaganda. As if, or ever.

New competition law to replace EU rules. https://www.gov.uk/government/news/new-law-to-make-doing-business-simpler-while-protecting-consumers New competition law will be introduced on 1 June 2022 to replace current EU rules. The new law will encourage vertical agreements for the sale and purchase of goods or services between businesses operating at different levels of the production or distribution chain. The law will also create a more level playing field for high street retailers by expanding the exemptions to cover agreements that treat online and offline sales differently. Businesses will also be able to combine distribution rights by supplying to multiple retailers in one geographical area while also having exclusive arrangements with another retailer in a different location.

Britons living in EU can’t keep pre-Brexit rights, European court advised. https://www.msn.com/en-gb/news/uknews/britons-living-in-eu-can-t-keep-pre-brexit-rights-european-court-advised/ar-AAUfyRb?ocid=msedgntp Nor can Britons wishing to return to Britain.

Migrants should stop ‘queue-jumping’ to reach ‘nice’ countries, says new UK immigration adviser. https://www.msn.com/en-gb/news/world/migrants-should-stop-queue-jumping-to-reach-nice-countries-says-new-uk-immigration-adviser/ar-AAUdwJx?ocid=msedgntp The man obviously can't tell the difference between a migrant and a refugee so hardly a surprise choice of fake adviser to the Turdy regime. The next thing you know Britain will be getting a corrupt, serial-lying American Prime Minister and another Jewish-Australian-turned-American responsible for gutter media and terrorist fake news and propaganda. All in the name of 'sovereignty'!

RNLI rescues cat stranded in river. https://www.msn.com/en-gb/news/uknews/rnli-volunteers-rescue-cat-stranded-in-river/vi-AAUdhxL?ocid=msedgntp Un-moderated Micro Shit Nobodies (MSN) Comments immediately awash with frenzied input from the country's illiterate hate-preachers. 'RNLI - nuthing butt a taxy servis fur ilegal catz.' And 'The RNLI wontt bee getting ani mor subs fromm me! Or, 'They shud just let scrownging, ilegul cats drown.' Finally, 'Pusch em bak to ware they beelong.'

Rats 'the size of cats' that can tread water for three days are invading homes through toilets. https://www.msn.com/en-gb/lifestyle/home-and-garden/rats-the-size-of-cats-that-can-tread-water-for-three-days-are-invading-homes-through-toilets/ar-AAU8lbC?ocid=msedgntp Known as the 'Johnson' strain of rat which has started to proliferate in recent years.

24.02.2022: ‘Muted’ UK sanctions on Russia and what impact they have on UK businesses. https://www.aol.co.uk/money/muted-uk-sanctions-russia-impact-150039540.html Totally predictable. The Turdy regime doesn't want to be embarassing its donors. That would be 'anti-semitic'. Plus Britain's political cowardice is legendary.

UK firms hit by record £4.5bn in customs duties after Brexit checks imposed. https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/brexit-uk-record-customs-duties-b2021342.html That will help offset the £35 billion a year in unpaid taxes from Turdy regime, Brexit-voting bedfellows and donors.

Cabinet split over plans to force UK firms to put goods through costly post-Brexit tests. https://www.msn.com/en-gb/news/uknews/cabinet-split-over-plans-to-force-uk-firms-to-put-goods-through-costly-post-brexit-tests/ar-AAUanyU?ocid=msedgntp Yet still more Brexit red tape. And it seems that even the MSN (Micro-Shit Nobodies) Comments pages are struggling to find pro-Brexit supporters these days. Or perhaps the staffers are getting bored flogging the same, limited propaganda and vocabulary which wouldn't get past even the first question of a British citizenship test?

New directory will help households at risk of flooding to find cover. https://www.aol.co.uk/money/directory-help-households-risk-flooding-080019399.html That's going to be a transparently thin. Wouldn't it be better to compile a directory of the bent politicians, councillors and property developers who allowed these homes to be built in the first place?

Ofcom plans crackdown on fake number fraud. https://www.aol.co.uk/money/ofcom-plans-crackdown-fake-number-095127227.html

Brexit: Government to launch study on economic benefits of reintroducing Imperial units. https://uk.yahoo.com/news/brexit-government-launch-study-economic-111605023.html Well, why didn't we see this coming? Is this one of public school wanker, Judas Reek Knobb's Brexit Opportunities ideas? To be followed by a study into the economic benefits of living in caves and a Foie Gras For Bent Turdy Ministers tax?

Mum explains simple cooking trick that saves her £40 a week on family food shop. https://www.msn.com/en-gb/foodanddrink/other/mum-explains-simple-cooking-trick-that-saves-her-40-a-week-on-family-food-shop/ar-AAUcSut?ocid=msedgntp Even 1-2 generations ago such 'simpe cooking tricks' were merely one component of good housekeeping. In addition to no £250,000 mortgages, there were no 'industrial' foods. No car. No central heating. No telly. No phone. No internet subscription. No Sky/Netflix subscriptions. No take-outs or take-aways. No booze. No fags. No holidays. No 'plastic' debt. And how to feed and keep healthy a family of four for a week with just a £3 sack of spuds. Boring? Well, with far less media exposure people were more intelligent in those days. Because there were hardly any knifings, assaults, muggings, rapes, child murders and drug abuse they had lives which they could enjoy by safely getting out more. Perhaps if the Ruskies invade Little Ingerlandt they will show the population how it's done?

23.02.2022: House sales down by 10.6% in January compared with a year earlier. https://www.aol.co.uk/money/house-sales-down-10-6-102546426.html Does this mean that the UK housing market's Ponzi scheme is finally getting a grip?

‘Completely contradictory’: NFU leader attacks UK farming policy. https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2022/feb/22/completely-contradictory-nfu-leader-attacks-uks-farming-policy There has never been a Brexit (UK) farming policy. Just bent Turdy ministers hip-hopping across the Atlantic to try various forms of analingus on their American line management. Which, given their form, you would have thought farmers and the NFU (referred to as 'No Fuckin' Use' within the industry) would have realised BEFORE voting for successive Turdy regimes and Brexit.

Vast majority of Welsh firms see post EU trading arrangements as an inhibitor to growth. https://www.business-live.co.uk/enterprise/vast-majority-welsh-firms-see-23181680?presentid=webnews&ocid=msedgntp So do the vast majority of all UK firms - but there is as little chance of that being reported in Brexit gutter propaganda as interviews with Palestinian victims of Israeli terrorism.

Airlines continue operating flights between UK and Ukraine. https://www.aol.co.uk/money/airlines-continue-operating-flights-between-102002220.html And they are far from being the only ones who don't believe NATO's mainstream gutter propaganda.

EU draft law would require firms to check suppliers for human rights, environmental ethics. https://www.msn.com/en-gb/money/other/eu-draft-law-would-require-firms-to-check-suppliers-for-human-rights-environmental-ethics/ar-AAU8AtA?ocid=msedgdhp&pc=U531 That's completely fcuked Brexit Britain's chances then!

That has always been a given. But they don't open the sluices at sewage plants. So what is the overpaid, underperforming Environment Agency supposedly responsible for? Apart from talking shit.

‘Four in 10 people not confident using numbers in their everyday lives’. https://www.aol.co.uk/money/four-10-people-not-confident-140039014.html Judging by the Brexit referendum results, the 'majority' of the British public can't do numbers; and they don't know how to read, either.

Dreaming of an escape to the country? Be careful what you wish for. https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2022/feb/22/escape-english-countryside-city-dwellers A good article. Scrounging, urban migrants should stay where they belong. Send 'em all back.

Almost 15,000 ‘ghost flights’ left UK since pandemic began. https://www.msn.com/en-gb/news/uknews/almost-15-000-ghost-flights-left-uk-since-pandemic-began/ar-AAU9Ty2?ocid=msedgntp What a waste! That's enough flights to have got rid of all the country's thick, scrounging, idle, Brexit and Turdy-voting wasters and allowing millions of educated, skilled, hard-working immigrants to be brought back in their place.

22.02.2022: UK business growth at highest since June as Covid restrictions ease. https://www.theguardian.com/business/2022/feb/21/uk-business-growth-covid-restrictions-private-sector

Homelessness set to soar in England amid cost of living crisis. https://www.theguardian.com/society/2022/feb/22/homelessness-set-to-soar-in-england-amid-cost-of-living-crisis Obviously a Turdy regime 'Brexit Benefit' of 'UK business growth being at its highest since June'.

While another million members of the dumb British public can't even afford to feed their families properly and British farmers go to the wall.

The prices rising from April including gas, electricity, national insurance, council tax and Sky. https://www.msn.com/en-gb/money/other/the-prices-rising-from-april-including-gas-electricity-national-insurance-council-tax-and-sky/ar-AAU4C1u?ocid=msedgntp For which we can thank the Turdy regime, Brexit voters and above all, the fake news, fake conspiracy, serial-lying, disinformation, offshore, taxpayer-subsidised gutter media.

Which has left producers, manufacturers and exporters from those countries in far more difficulty as a result, than the Ruskies themselves. A lesson these countries might have learned from their mates-in-the-night, the Nazis, when they invaded Russia during the Second World War.

Turdy MPs warn of backlash against easing of UK-China trade. https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2022/feb/17/tory-mps-backlash-easing-uk-china-trade-uyghur-genocide Britain has 'secretly' been trading with China for over fourty years during which time the Chinese have repeatedly pointed to British war crimes, terrorism, sponsorship of terrorism and alliances with the world's leading terrorist states - America and Israel. More recently, China has been siding with Russia in asking NATO (North American Terrorist Organisation) to respect the UN resolutions to which it and its murdering allies are signatories. All part of the so-called Ukraine crisis. And all as unreported by western propaganda, naturally. Whereas Turdy MPs threatening a 'backlash' are war criminals themselves of course, and leading supporters and sponsors of the 'genocide' and crimes against humanity taking place in Yemen, Palestine as well as most of the Middle East and Africa.

(Mainly American, these days, looking at content and the money trail.)

Britons didn’t know what they were doing when they backed Brexit, says European Parliament. https://uk.yahoo.com/news/britons-didn-t-know-were-173727225.html That is the conclusion reached by the EU Parliament immediately following the Brexit referendum.

17.02.2022: ‘Almost half of Britons know little or nothing about National Insurance rise’. https://www.aol.co.uk/money/almost-half-britons-know-little-114724177.html The same 'almost half' know-nothings who voted for Brexit.
