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

BT

speed claims. https://www.independent.co.uk/news/business/news/bt-advert-banned-broadband-wifi-speed-virgin-media-a8798981.html
It's certainly 'new' seeing an ad by the
teleconns industry's fraudsters and crooks being
banned for making fake claims. Does this mean
their cash suppositories for bent Tory ploiticians
will now start drying up?

https://uk.yahoo.com/news/japanese-aren-t-daft-why-080019995.html
And it's not just the Japanese, of course,
who don't wish to remain a part of an American

And there are millions of Fake Brits/Brexit

fault of Brussels, of course. Or Polish plumbers.
Or Iraqis, Libyans and Syrians bombed out of

Investment
scam targets Instagram users. https://www.bbc.com/news/business-47358892
Con-men, fraudsters, terrorists, the official
fake news industry and politicians have never
had it so good - since social media for morons
came along.
July
deadline confirmed for first MTD filings.
https://www.accountancydaily.co/july-deadline-first-mtd-vat-filing-complete-quarter
HMRC has confirmed that the first quarterly
filings for Making Tax Digital (MTD) for VAT
will be due from 1 July 2019. HMRC has also
confirmed that a soft penalty approach will
be taken until at least April 2020, after which
a points-based penalty system will be introduced.
Under the system taxpayers will incur points
if they fail to submit a return on time, with
financial charges resulting once a certain threshold
is reached.
Brexit
guidance for farming sector. https://www.gov.uk/guidance/the-farming-sector-and-preparing-for-eu-exit
Defra has published guidance for the farming
sector about preparing for a no-deal Brexit.
The guidance covers rural payments, EU funding,
food and drink labelling and pesticides regulations.

Just another timely reminder that Eurostar
management doesn't need Brexit as an excuse
for their sublime incompetence and disregard
for passenger convenience. They have always
been the pits and will always remain so.

The problem with British politicians since
the Second World War is that they have been
hiding behind do much propaganda and fake news
to cover up their own war crimes that they can
longer tell fact from fiction. That might be
OK in Little Ingerlandt's fake news media but
it doesn't really cut the mustard when trying
to negotiate new trade deals especially with
countries which have been on the receiving end
of British terrorism. Perhaps a stray dog would
do a better job, judging by the accumulating
national embarrassment and lack of results so
far?

Microshite hypocrisy and propaganda. It was
sired to profit American 'warmongering' and
has been doing so since its inception. Or to
put it more accurately - genocide, crimes against
humanity, war crimes, terrorism, murder, fraud,
extortion, theft and lies. The very mainstays
of the American economy.

Over a quarter of smaller businesses expect
Brexit to have a negative impact on their business,
according to research by the British Business
Bank. The research also revealed that 34% of
smaller businesses believe accessing finance
will be more difficult after the UK leaves the

businesses are delaying investment decisions
due to Brexit and that demand for finance has
fallen.

Brexit: UK has rolled over just £16bn

Serial-lying, Anglo-American war criminal,
Johnson, has run out of the massive savings
to be had from Brexit already? All the 'funding

lies having been exposed, it's now time to raid
so-called foreign aid. Or, cash bungs for favours

has not tested employment status tool. https://www.contractorcalculator.co.uk/hmrc_still_conducted_formal_testing_cest_547410_news.aspx
HMRC has admitted that the Check Employment
Status for Tax (CEST) tool has not been formally
tested since it was released almost two years
ago, according to a freedom of information request
by Contractor Calculator. This is despite claims
from HMRC that the tool is under constant review.
Contractor Calculator also found that the CEST
tool hadn't undergone an informal assessment
to check if it adheres to the Government's Digital
Service (GDS) Standards. The CEST tool is used
to check if a sub-contractor should be classed
as employed or self-employed for tax purposes.
The Tory regime and its Brownshirts clearly
don't want a reality check affecting their long-running,
bogus self-employment statistics!

Call
for measures to improve supply chain payment
practices. https://www.fsb.org.uk/media-centre/press-releases/three-point-plan-needed-to-avoid-another-carillion-payment-practice-scandal
The Federation of Small Businesses (FSB) has
urged the Government to introduce new measures
to improve payment practices in public and private
sector supply chains. The measures are in response
to the Carillion collapse and are intended to
ensure that smaller suppliers are protected
against the impact of unfair payment terms and
late payment. The FSB has also called for the
Government to strengthen the Prompt Payment
Code and introduce stricter penalties for firms
that break the rules, as well as for project
bank accounts to be used in all major public
sector contracts to ensure smaller suppliers
are paid on time.
