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,

Calls
for inquiry into claims Johnson backers benefit
from no-deal Brexit. https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2019/sep/28/boris-johnson-backers-benefit-from-no-deal-brexit-inquiry
This has been glaringly evident from the
outset - just as has the total lack of any mention
in the hate-preaching, fake news 'media' which
has been promoting Brexit. For its own benefit.

One is inclined to ask why Donkey Trump
groupie and serial-liar, Nigel Farage, wasn't
inclined to identify 'Whitehall Pen-Pushers'
(and creators of three times more red tape than
the EU ever produced) as a problem before he
went on his hate-preaching and disinformation
Brexit campaign. Although that wouldn't have
been so lucrative, neither for Farage, his backers,
the fake news media or US Big Corp.

Any reason why long animal journeys couldn't
have been banned pre-Brexit? Other than in the
fake news, serial Brexit-lying media?

So why haven't we heard of any arrests for
treason, yet? Or the seizure of criminal assets
to help repay the Brexiteers' victims? And this
includes the hate-preaching, fake news and disinformation
media too, which even outside Brexit, has cost
small British businesses £ billions! Or
are the police too busy putting on make-up for
their next tv screening? Perhaps getting ready

The Information Commissioner's Office (ICO)

out the steps small organisations should take

The ICO has also urged UK businesses to prepare
for all potential Brexit scenarios and develop
contingency plans to ensure data flows can continue
after the UK leaves the EU.

New
prompt-payment rules came into force on 1 September
2019 to make sure government suppliers pay their
own suppliers on time. Under the rules, all
government suppliers must pay 95% of their invoices
within 60 days or risk losing out on other government
contracts. The rules are predicted to benefit
smaller businesses in the supply chains of government
suppliers who often don't have financial reserves
to pay their own suppliers when awaiting payment.

it.

Brexit becoming too big for cross-border businesses
to ignore. hhttps://intertradeireland.com/news/brexit-becoming-too-big-for-cross-border-businesses-to-ignore/
New
research commissioned by InterTradeIreland underlines
that while Brexit is looming large in the background
for businesses, most firms are opting to pay
no attention to its potential impact.

HMRC has published detailed guidance about off-payroll
working rules, also known as IR35, which come
into force in the private sector from 6 April
2020. The detailed guidance covers the roles
of intermediaries and who is responsible for
paying or deducting NI contributions, deemed
direct payments and employment status disagreements.

£10m
Brexit readiness fund announced. https://www.gov.uk/government/news/business-secretary-launches-10-million-brexit-readiness-fund-for-business-organisations
The Department for Business has announced a
£10 million grant scheme for trade associations
and membership bodies to help businesses prepare
for Brexit. The Business Readiness Fund will
be used to provide advice, training and events
to help businesses understand the steps they
should take to be ready when the UK leaves the
EU. The deadline for funding applications is
30 September 2019 and all projects must be completed
by 31 October.
Only
£10 million? As derisory as the cabinet
of chimpanzees currently (mis)leading the country.
eBay
calls for Britain's SME exporters to have a
voice in future trade deals.
https://www.ebayinc.com/stories/press-room/uk/ebay-calls-for-britains-sme-exporters-to-have-a-voice-in-future-trade-deals/
eBay has today released new data highlighting
the contribution of UK small and medium-sized
businesses to UK exports, and is calling for
their voices to be heard in future trade negotiations.
Which
is only logical as SMEs account(ed) for 95%
of the country's business activity. Unfortunately,
it's not one of those facts of life taught in
public school where lying, bending over, fagging,
thieving and crimes against humanity form the
typical scrote's perception of 'trade deals'.
Labour
could force landlords to sell homes to tenants
at reasonable prices in bid to end
buy-to-let property profiteering. https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/labour-right-buy-scheme-houses-landlords-tenants-john-mcdonnell-corbyn-a9088211.html
Just 'landlords' who have been profiteering
from buy-to-let? And not the government; individual
politicians with their sticky fingers in many
pies; landowners; the construction industry;
the financial sector; estate agents; surveyors;
the fake news media; etc; etc?
Millennials

reveals. https://www.theguardian.com/money/2019/sep/02/millennials-most-likely-to-fall-prey-to-bank-lloyds-reveals
Could
language be the key to detecting fake news?
https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2019/sep/02/language-fake-news-linguistic-research
Or just a bit of traditional 'nouse' will
do. 'Never believe what you read in the 'papers
(or on the internet) or hear on telly' has always
done very nicely. Especially if it comes out
of The Scum, The Daily Wail, The Terrorgraph,
the BBC - in fact, just about every 'mainstream'
fake news organ which is now accusing anyone
trying to publish the truth as being - 'fake
news'.
Drive-thru
brothels: why cities are building 'sexual infrastructure'.
https://www.theguardian.com/cities/2019/sep/02/drive-thru-brothels-why-cities-are-building-sexual-infrastructure
London has had one of those for centuries;
it's called 'Westminster'.
Tourism
booming in Whaley Bridge as visitors pile in
to see town almost flooded off the map.
https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-news/whaley-bridge-tourism-booming-visitor-numbers-up-peak-district-a9084681.html
Features like these could, perversely, become
a major Brexit draw. A Comedy of Errors, perhaps.
Or, The Chimpanzees' Tea Party. Or, The Punch
and Judy Show, by Trump's puppeteers.
Peaky
Blinders mania puts Birmingham on global 'screen
tourism' map. https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2019/sep/02/peaky-blinders-mania-birmingham-screen-tourism-boom
A secondary trip from Birmingham to the Houses
of Parliament in London to see modern criminals,
hoodlums, murderers and thieves at work, has
also been proposed.
Sportswashing:
how Saudi Arabia lobbies the US's largest sports
bodies. https://www.theguardian.com/sport/2019/sep/02/sportswashing-saudi-arabia-sports-mohammed-bin-salman
And of course, there is also Israel and above
all, the USA itself. As never mentioned by the
west's Semitic media because that would be 'anti-Semitic',
wouldn't it?
Brooklyn
Airbnb room goes viral after guest

https://www.independent.co.uk/travel/news-and-advice/airbnb-brookyn-cupboard-under-stairs-new-york-video-a9088261.html

American terrorists to be lurking anyway.

And next week, French air traffic controllers
will be going on strike again. It is still the
holiday season, after all.
Defra
review of food industry. https://www.gov.uk/government/news/public-to-have-their-say-on-the-food-system-of-the-future
Defra has launched a review into how food
is produced, sold and consumed in the UK. The
review will identify what currently works well
in the food industry and the role innovations
in technology such as vertical farming and robotics
could have on improving food supply. As part
of the review, Defra has launched a call for
evidence, which will enable consumers, farmers
and food producers to submit their opinions
on how the food industry could be improved.
The review findings will be used to develop
a National Food Strategy, which will be published
in 2020.

American
cheese: Does it deserve its bad reputation?
https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-48915578
If
it really does have a bad reputation then that,
once again - and as always - is down to the
fake news and disinformation media. Probably
French in this case - but fake news and disinformation
all the same.
With
our usual gratitude and thanks to BAD News and
Cobweb Info.
