    Right2buy - Can I buy?

    I posted about this sometime ago and got a kickback from some users who criticised me for attempting to buy social housing! I am close to completing getting all the documents that have been requested, but filling in the forms for R2B is difficult and I can't really grasp how they word things...

    UK rioters - would you sack them?

    The problem is that we all know how right-wing protests go, even the most peaceful one had two dozen arrests, before the riots. We can all go in the middle of the street with a placard - the problem is that any protest against immigration is not placards, but just an excuse for people to make...

    UK rioters - would you sack them?

    If people don't turn upto riots, as just a bystander, is there ever going to be a riot? Do you watch a very small amount of people attacking a hotel, or is around hundreds of others? The people that attend perhaps not as bad as ones who went too far with violence and the thuggery, but they are...

    Is online arbitrage with Fulfillment by Amazon still viable?

    I went down this route 2 years ago. It take a lot of time to understand it all and you realise what a machine Amazon is. £5000 is no budget to do this.

    Getting rid of a decent amount of fashion stock

    Yeah bought from a UK wholesaler. Not huge brands, mainly a lot of European popular brands it would seem.

    UK rioters - would you sack them?

    haha, I don't want to sack them and I don't want the hassle. the problem is how important impartiality is and what message it sends out whether or not this person is moved on etc. but anyway.

    UK rioters - would you sack them?

    1) Your job is politically motivated 2) Your told to stay impartical at all times (mainly social media wise) 3) You're attending a questionably politically motivated 'event' 4) The pictures show individual at event, but not committing any crimes, but most certainly not 'caught up' in it and...

None of the images that we received were showing this individual involved...

    Getting rid of a decent amount of fashion stock

    In terms of charity shops, something I am not willing to do anyway, you'll be surprised to find that they are turning people away due to high levels of stock. In terms of high street prices, I am not sure what planet you are on in terms of being cheap. I can't remember the last time I went...

    Getting rid of a decent amount of fashion stock

    The tops are a one-off, shirts I had as a kid. I just compared to other older shirts

    Solution: Job Seekers Benefits

    I think you completely missed what I posted and chose to take it our of context. I said that some aids are provided on the NHS and some are not. I didn't make any comment on foods as I am aware that the NHS aren't going to subsidise that - but some actual food aids are provided by the NHS as...

    Solution: Job Seekers Benefits

    Erm. My understanding of PIP to yours is alot different, aides for people who are disabled are paid for by the NHS, if you need a specialised aid - it is paid for by the NHS, not out of PIP. Of course you can, if you wish, just go to the local charity shop and pick one up for a fiver out of PIP...

    A crowdfunding query (would it get approval)

    These are definitely very helpful comments and a lot that I have not thought about. In 2014 I started a small events business for high profile and wealthy people, it was a incredibily slow start with less than 30 at each event, eventually by month 6 & onwards we were getting 100+ and 250...

    A crowdfunding query (would it get approval)

    £350k is a figure I am working on at the moment. It could be more and could be less, but not by much. Considering this isn't a one-ff event and a concept that houses numerous events that is the number I am at now. I could start at a local venue, but it doesn't work locally, it works in only...

    A crowdfunding query (would it get approval)

    I;ve taken a look at pitches that have gone live already and none of them offer any decent equity. a pre-valuation business of £50m giving away 4%, I don't know where people can see the attraction. Over the last month I have come to the conclusion that I can't see it crowdfunding vell as it's...
