This is of interest to people who are in receipt of a UK State Pension but no other taxable income. Particularly to those who are in receipt of SERPs enhancements. Essentially, you may now be due to pay tax on your income the bill for which will accumulate since there are no direct means to tax incomes that are solely State Pension. The root cause is the freeze to the tax threshold, creating a stealth tax on low incomes that have risen with inflation. https://www.theguardian.com/money/2023/oct/21/uk-pensions-warning-dont-get-caught-by-an-out-of-the-blue-tax-bill

Now that would be a laugh.

The prudent thing to do is provide evidence of crimes before making accusations.

The Trump’s NDA’s have been ruled not legally enforceable. There are many legitimate reasons why NDA’s might be required, I’ve signed well over a dozen in my life time, all restricted to the legitimate commercial business information of the clients I was working for, none restricted my rights to redress under any employment or criminal law. You might want to spend some time reading up on the abuse of NDA’s.

The ‘cojones’ I referred to a figurative. Nothing to do with your hair triggered transphobia.

Did he ask for time to pay?

Hogwash. The main voter concerns are the cost of living crisis and the NHS crisis (which will get worse over the winter). The Tories have made ‘illegal’ immigration their central platform, together with promoting culture wars they talk of little else. Clearly the Tory focus on immigration failed, two absolute hammerings in these bye-elections ought to have driven that message home. Corbyn is not a member of the Labour Party Tony Blair is not coming back or deciding any policies.

Yes. Now back to the question:

What, so being informed by your own legal team that the prosecutors have you banged to rights isn’t a motivation to go for a plea deal?

Excellent results.

That and being advised the prosecution have them banged to rights.

One less State trial now and it is the ability or otherwise of the State Courts to conduct the trials that Trump supporters have been pinning their hopes on. Who knows, maybe more defendants will flip. Regardless, the removal of one trial from the queue is a blow to anyone hoping the trails would run out past the 2024 election.

How many trials?

But some folk’s obsession with the appendages on other people’s bodies remains a constant.

One of straws grasped by Trump supporters was the idea the the Georgia courts would not be able to handle so many defendants and their trials. Their hope being that Trump would not be put on trial until after the 2024 election. Well now these two defendants have cut a deal and they won’t be going to trial. The schedule just got freed up.

Oh no… ‘Trump’s going to get away with all’.

Keep in mind, Jordan was Trump’s pick. The message is clear, Trump’s hold over the GOP is slipping.

The resounding defeat in this week’s two by elections is the cause of the risk he now faces.

Well Chesebro has just taken a cooperation deal, so there will be no trial for these two. DG Willis is firing on all cylinders, she now has two cooperating witnesses who were right at the heart of the crime scheme. They will get to give their testimony in later trials and Trump doesn’t get a preview of the prosecution strategy. Feel free to ‘caution’ that into some variation of ‘Trump will get away with it all’.

HMRC will tax you on the basis of an assumed income, they’ll issue you a new tax code. You can call then or write them to get this corrected. Up to you whether or not you tell them you are in Thailand, those wishing to receive their annual cost of living increases usually don’t share that piece of information.

What 14 years ago?

The rightwing accusation/confession. It’s a thing.
