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

‘Worrying rise’ in crypto scams claiming to be celebrity-endorsed seen by bank. https://www.aol.co.uk/money/worrying-rise-crypto-scams-claiming-085501372.html Surely one of the most reliable signs of a scam is a 'celebrity' endorsement!

Police seize anti-Brexit protester’s speakers hours after new Turdy/Nazi law takes force. https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/brexit-protest-parliament-square-steve-bray-b2111134.html A pity the police can't 'seize' murderers, rapists and thieves with equal enthusiasm.

Boris Johnson ‘very enthusiastic’ about Macron’s new club of European leaders, says France. https://uk.yahoo.com/news/boris-johnson-very-enthusiastic-macron-180000772.html We can be sure that's a lie, then.

New data laws announced. https://www.gov.uk/government/news/new-data-laws-to-boost-british-business-protect-consumers-and-seize-the-benefits-of-brexit The Government has announced plans to reform data protection laws in the UK. The Data Reform Bill will strengthen data protection standards in the UK while reducing the burden on businesses. The Bill will remove some requirements of the UK GDPR, increase fines for nuisance calls and texts, and introduce a new opt-out model for cookies.

Young people must report harmful online content, says UK watchdog. https://www.theguardian.com/media/2022/jun/27/young-people-must-report-harmful-online-content-says-uk-watchdog Which will be most of the output of the gutter media in that case!

Big Issue plans to tackle skills gap. https://www.aol.co.uk/money/big-issue-plans-tackle-skills-230100242.html The best of luck to them. It's always been much cheaper for successive governments to import skilled labour usually in the form of refugees desperate to re-start their lives again.

EU, U.S. aim for 1.5 million smart thermostats in Europe this year. https://uk.yahoo.com/finance/news/eu-u-aim-1-5-115438200.html Pure propaganda. Or, they could simply let in more refugees who have the skill-set to turn off a switch.

Jill Dando may have been shot by mistake after mafia hitman mix-up, court documents claim. https://uk.yahoo.com/news/jill-dando-may-shot-mistake-111513499.html Sounds more than plausible; the French are the world's leading experts at fuck-ups. (Closely followed by Brexit Britain these days.) Probably the same tosser responsible for the Alps murders.

27.06.2022: ‘What have we done?’: six years on, UK counts the cost of Brexit. https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2022/jun/25/what-have-we-done-six-years-on-uk-counts-the-cost-of-brexit As we were saying. Ten years ago.

French energy giants urge consumers to cut back. https://uk.yahoo.com/news/french-energy-giants-urge-consumers-090504640.html French energy giants are urging consumers to cut back on energy consumption because they and the Macron regime have proven themselves to be completely incompetent wasters at managing the country's energy requirements. Which us why they have been selected as the perfect incompetent match for dealing with Brexit Britain's energy requirements, as well.

Judas Reek-Knobb's List Of Brexit Benefits Includes A Discount On Fish Fingers. https://uk.yahoo.com/news/jacob-rees-moggs-list-brexit-124750084.html And this is what happens when you have dumb voters who believe what they read in the gutter press and return 'fish fingers' to power.

Brexit is working and naysayers have axes to grind, claims David Frost. https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2022/jun/23/brexit-is-working-naysayers-have-axes-to-grind-david-frost Sounds like the reassurances German Nazis were giving in late-1944. (And what 'axes' would pro-Brexiteers have to grind?)

Visa and Mastercard investigated over claims of exploiting 'post-Brexit loophole' to raise fees. https://uk.yahoo.com/news/visa-mastercard-investigated-over-claims-142644989.html This being the same 'Visa and Mastercard' which are major advertisers in pro-Brexit gutter propaganda?

Only 100 days left to use paper £20 and £50 notes, says Bank of England. https://www.theguardian.com/business/2022/jun/23/only-100-days-left-to-use-paper-20-and-50-notes-says-bank-of-england After that, the Brexit recession will render your bog-roll shekels increasingly worthless.

British journalist told to 'go back to your country' by American terrorist politician. https://www.msn.com/en-gb/news/world/british-journalist-told-to-go-back-to-your-country-by-republican-politician-is-siobhan-kennedy/ar-AAYMD2S?ocid=msedgntp&cvid=fbd645d368664c6d8cb4ab3e792eb408 A sentiment which would be echoed by the hundreds of countries which are or have been infested with American invaders, war criminals, murderers and illegal migrants.

23.06.2022: Online sales tax would cost families £175 extra a year, Sunak told. https://www.msn.com/en-gb/money/other/online-sales-tax-would-cost-families-175-extra-a-year-sunak-told/ar-AAYG4KW?ocid=msedgntp&cvid=526f6feda1d8456c9bba83ff59629304 It would all depend on how online tax was calculated and applied, of course, although another excuse to further tax the consumer instead, would always be welcome. Just as long as Turdy regime sponsors, donors and offshore tax evaders don't have to pay their way.

Brexit is making cost of living crisis worse, new study claims. https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2022/jun/22/brexit-is-making-cost-of-living-crisis-worse-new-study-claims Yet another 'new' study coming to the same conclusion as all the previous 'new' studies.

And what's half a million dead civilians among friends . . .

Fifth of people ‘feel locked out of the financial system’. https://www.aol.co.uk/money/fifth-people-feel-locked-financial-230100887.html

(Other than in Brexit cheerleading gutter propaganda, of course. Like The Daily Wail.)

Brexit ‘completely’ to blame for airport chaos, says Ryanair boss – predicting summer-long disruption. https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/brexit-airport-flights-disruption-ryanair-b2105790.html Of course. Not forgetting the Turdy regime which backed Brexit. And their serial-lying, fake news gutter propaganda which foisted Brexit AND the Turdies on the dumb British public.

Post Office IT scandal victims may be disqualified from compensation scheme. https://www.theguardian.com/business/2022/jun/21/post-office-it-scandal-victims-may-be-disqualified-from-compensation-scheme Just about to be expected from the scammers and criminals who infest Post Office mismanagement. With the full backing of the equally criminal Turdy regime, of course.

Energy bills direct debit: What Ofgem announcement means for consumers. https://uk.yahoo.com/finance/news/energy-bills-direct-debit-ofgem-consumers-100823764.html

UK is doing more to help Ukraine than the US, says John Bolton. https://uk.yahoo.com/news/uk-helped-ukraine-more-us-170000387.html When a statement from an American terrorist mouthpiece and war criminal appears in NATO gutter propaganda we can rest assured it's just bollox. The UK is doing exactly as much - and as little - as its American line management tells it to. Otherwise, there is little point in having an American as Brexit Britain's Puppet Prime Minister.

Ukrainian troops are deserting battle and Russian troops have 'troubled' morale as the war is expected to last years, NATO chief says. https://uk.yahoo.com/news/ukrainian-troops-deserting-battle-russian-180758976.html Or so he 'hopes' - like the rest of NATO's professional murderers and parasites supported by the taxpayer. Otherwise, what else could he do? Organ harvesting? Snuff porn? Child abduction for cash adoptions? Drug or gun running? Perhaps the CIA-funded mercenary war criminal and terrorist group, Shitwater, might give him a job?

21.06.2022: Small businesses complain of ‘cost-of-working crisis’. https://www.aol.co.uk/money/small-businesses-complain-cost-working-231749412.html

Only a tiny minority of rural Britons are farmers – so why do they hold such sway? https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2022/jun/20/minority-rural-britons-farmers-farming-countryside-environment Farmers/farming are only a facet of the numerous industrial goliaths which 'feed' them. Banks, agrocorp, petrocorp, engineering and manufacturing, IT, logistics and distribution, wholesale and retail, agencies and departments, the list is almost endless. And there lies 'the sway', often using the farmers as their mouthpieces.

Government retracts ‘unlawful’ pollution guidance for England’s farms. https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2022/jun/20/government-retracts-unlawful-pollution-guidance-for-englands-farms It barely matters what the guidance is: the problem is the significant number of farmers who break the law regularly and with impunity. Just like the water companies, for example, which pour their shit into rivers, lakes and the sea with the present regime's 'blessing'. And this is a global problem not just confined to England.

Depression, anxiety and panic attacks: charity highlights the impacts of debt. https://www.aol.co.uk/money/depression-anxiety-panic-attacks-charity-230100741.html

France’s Macron loses parliamentary majority as left and right surge. https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/europe/france-elections-le-pen-marine-melenchon-b2104666.html French voters have finally had enough of Macronista lies, stupidity, incompetence, waste, corruption and criminality. Perhaps the dumb British public will take note?

Etsy paid just £128,000 in corporation tax in 2020 in the UK despite £160m in sales. https://www.theguardian.com/business/2022/jun/19/etsy-corporation-tax-uk-sales-taxwatch-us Turdy regime/Brexiteer/gutter media 'levelling-up' values.

Ukraine war: Cash payments for Britons hosting refugees hit by 'postcode lottery'. https://uk.yahoo.com/news/ukraine-war-cash-payments-britons-004300726.html Similar problems are being reported throughout NATO-aligned terrorist/serial-lying/duplicitous/coward states. Now that the prospects of selling armaments to the Ukrainians are diminuishing rapidly, it's time for still more 'refugees' to become 'migrants'. Turdy/Nazi gutter propaganda to oblige shortly.

Brexit never had a set of wheels to begin with. Unless that means lies, more lies, lies again and fantasies. As the whole world - much less Italy alone - has long known.

Farmers and food producers to lose almost £300m from Australia trade deal, MPs warn. https://www.independent.co.uk/independentpremium/uk-news/brexit-australia-trade-deal-farmers-b2103656.html As predicted (in non-Brexit gutter propaganda.)

Hundreds of Ukrainian refugees left homeless in England, data shows. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2022/jun/16/hundreds-of-ukrainian-refugees-left-homeless-in-england-data-shows This could be the ideal opportunity for the Turdy regime to fill its empty flights to Rwanda where there is plenty of accommodation available (according to Turdy gutter propaganda.)

One could immediately ask what right does The Daily Wail and the Turdies have to 'meddle' in the affairs of countries which have been targeted for invasion, terrorism, war crimes, sanctions, theft and deprivation and thus producing millions of refugees? What right does the Daily Wail have to target its own country's population with never-ending lies and disinformation leading to a regime of cold, hunger, poverty and recession? What right does The Daily Wail have to deprive MILLIONS of small businesses of the freedom to trade where they will, at will.

As war drags on, Ukrainians start to ask: could we have prepared better? https://www.theguardian.com/world/2022/jun/03/ukraine-russia-war-ukrainians-question-mistakes-preparations-buildup A question which the Ukrainians aren't asking at all as 'preparation' was all in the hands of the North American Terrorist Organisation (NATO) (the Americans, the British and the French) together with their Nazi Ukrainian collaborators.
