Viewpoint by Len Tondel, from 1st May 2018
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,

The Treasury has launched a consultation about
plans to tackle non-compliance with off-payroll
working rules (known as IR35) in the private
sector. The consultation is seeking comments
on ways to address non-compliance and ensure
the correct amount of tax and National Insurance
contributions are paid by contractors and businesses.
The consultation follows HMRC research which
revealed that just 10% of people who are required
to comply with IR35 do so. Responses will be
accepted until 10 August 2018.

As

that the American administration has reneged
on its agreement with Iran. A normal state of
affairs for lying, thieving Americans. The US

Sex trafficking on an industrial scale in

The UK also generates a lot of dirty money of
its own - from supplying and supporting war
criminals and terrorists like the Israelis,
Saudis and the Americans. As well as sustaining
its own dirty money campaigns of murdering children
and helping to create millions of refugees.

to HMRC, which is currently processing tax refunds
for 2017/18, criminals often use events such

public. Many phishing e-mails and text messages
include links to dubious websites where their
information can be stolen. Anyone who receives
an unexpected e-mail or text message asking
for their PIN or bank details should report

https://www.parliament.uk/business/committees/committees-a-z/commons-select/work-and-pensions-committee/news-parliament-2017/universal-credit-report-launch-17-19/
The Work and Pensions Committee has warned that
Universal Credit (UC) makes inadequate provision
for the self-employed and could lead to a fall
in self-employment. In a new report, the committee
has warned that claimants must earn a minimum
amount (the 'minimum income floor') to be eligible
for UC. However, the minimum income floor assumes
self-employed claimants earn a regular income
at least equal to the National Minimum Wage,
and makes no provision for claimants with income
and expenditure that fluctuate from month to
month. Furthermore, self-employed claimants
are currently only exempt from the minimum income
floor for their first 12 months in business.
As a result, the committee has urged the Government
to extend the exemption period.
And

firms are struggling to access credit. Overall,
just 60% of small firms that applied for credit
were successful in Q2 2018, down from 74% in
Q2 2017. In addition, 40% of smaller firms said
the availability of new credit is poor, which
is the highest level for two years. The research
has also indicated that credit is becoming less
affordable for smaller firms due to higher interest
rates.

(Amendment) Regulations 2018, directors can

from the company register. Directors must provide
a correspondence address as an alternative and
the request will be rejected if their home is

As far removed from reality as the fake news
media's coverage of the most corrupt sport in
the world, in general. Still. Just like hate-preaching,
disinformation and propaganda, it all pays the

Brexit result has been thrown into question
by the Cambridge Analytica data scandal, says
Tory MP. https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/brexit-vote-result-second-referendum-cambridge-analytica-antoinette-sandbach-mp-a8325636.html
The 'Brexit result' was thrown into doubt
the moment it was being promoted by the country's
crooks, liars, corporate fags and their mainstream,
offshore, fake news media/propaganda.
Department
for Business unprepared for Brexit. https://www.publicfinance.co.uk/news/2018/04/mps-grave-concerns-over-business-departments-brexit-complacency1
The Public Accounts Committee has warned that
the Department for Business has made insufficient
progress with preparing for Brexit. In a new
report, the committee has raised concerns that
staff do not have the skills or experience required
to deliver Brexit-related projects. It has also
warned that the department has been complacent
with its Brexit preparations and that there
is a lack of transparency about progress. The
report has called for the department to halt
or delay some projects in order to focus on
Brexit, and to identify any gaps in the skills
needed to deliver Brexit-related projects.
