I don’t have £2 million in assets, and I don’t earn £200k a year. I’m quite short on both counts. So the HMRC wealth audit doesn’t impact me. Yet.
But it signals a clear intention. A lack of respect for the individual. What is yours is only yours until the government decides they want it to fund further welfare expansion.
Property rights only exist in this country as long as your holdings are meagre enough to escape the fiscal Eye of Sauron. They will come for it all.

No. The scariest thing here is what HMRC considers wealthy.
£200k/pa
OR
£2M in ASSETS
And apparently, out of a population of £68ish million inhabitants, there are only 850,000 of these 'wealthy'.
We are so irredeemably fucked.

why do we keep humiliating ourselves like this
Smart TVs will be forced to power up more slowly under plans to align Britain with the EU’s net zero rules.
The rules would probably mean smart TVs and other devices have to disconnect from WiFi when not in use, slowing down their “wake-up” time when a user switches them on again ⤵️

nothing represents the green revolution quite like a couple of middle aged nimbys gleefully protecting a patch of grass covered in tyres from the scourge of affordable shopping and jobs for young people

What exactly is progressive about refusing planning permission for a cheap supermarket during a cost of living crisis?

The funny thing is everyone was saying AI slop code will cause a cyber crisis but it’s actually all the old human slop causing it and the AI is just cleaning it up

when you see an “expert” in the media talk about a topic you’re quite familiar with, it really makes you question all their other “experts” for all the other topics

Government minister of a country with chronic current account deficits against the idea of exporting more

Norway's fund works because Norwegians can look at $2.4trn of Nvidia and Palantir shares for twenty years and not touch it
the people most upset Britain never built one would have forced it to dump Palantir after the first demo and spent the rest on nurses in the first recession

The way Britain's electricity grid is run reminds me of something I've seen before, and I can't quite put my finger on it.
It’s official: a legal investigation has found engineers in Britain’s electricity grid control room are stressed because renewables make it so hard to keep the lights on. And when they raise concerns, managers won’t listen - they only want “good news”

Billions of pounds lost on a single project because we can’t connect it to the grid for half a decade and have destroyed our capacity to generate reliable electricity.

‘What it calls a flying car’
The UK attitude which drives so many entrepreneurs abroad.
This isn’t just the BBC, it’s ingrained in every institution and into the public psyche.
Tall poppy syndrome has likely destroyed trillions in value for the British economy.
Pathetic.
Elon Musk's electric car manufacturer, Tesla, has unveiled what it calls a 'flying car'.
On #BBCBreakfast Charlie & Naga looked at images of the two-seater Roadster - which has been developed in collaboration with the rocket company, Space X
