New measures for domestic abuse victims- only launched in a few places but a good move in the right direction. The immediate issue of Domestic Abuse protection notices to give time to apply for a DAPO will really help, as will family being able to apply on the victims behalf. Well done, Jess Phillips! https://www.gov.uk/government/news/new-measures-to-protect-victims-of-domestic-abuse -

Every year I try to do something to remember Dad at Xmas or his Birthday. I dedicated a tree, got him a star . This year I've chosen to dedicate a lit rose in the ever after garden. This way I can also donate towards cancer issues. https://www.royalmarsden.org/support-us/give/ever-after-garden?gad_source=1&gclid=Cj0KCQiAlsy5BhDeARIsABRc6ZsGrMB727cxRZpaRkZhoiPks4QAphKDFXchtiO0oSeSHne_RgW9OgMaAtK3EALw_wcB -

Not often I recommend products but I've ordered these . I received the boy one and immediately ordered a girl one for my granddaughter as the books look so good. One tip..upload four or 5 photos to be able pick the favourite one. You can see the preview before buying. I did the paperback but it's actually quite large! https://imagitime.com/?gad_source=1&gclid=Cj0KCQjwvpy5BhDTARIsAHSilym4HXhqOHgUyVbaBkJd6pbP8zKtWJoMpKi7I2wjri0SRpz-LgQJcnoaAmM7EALw_wcB -

Starmers definition is below.. it's confused me! Even if someone has savings or property and have a Jon, they are working people in my eyes. What's your definition? In an interview during a Commonwealth leaders' summit, the prime minister was asked whether those who work, but get additional income from assets such as shares or property, would count as working people. He replied that they "wouldn't come within my definition" - but warned against making "assumptions" about what that meant for tax policy. He said he thought of a working person as someone who “goes out and earns their living, usually paid in a sort of monthly cheque" and who can't "write a cheque to get out of difficulties". Speaking afterwards, his spokesman sought to clarify that those with a "small amount of savings" could still be defined as working people. -

Labours proposed worker reforms,including changes to sick pay and banning zero hour contracts,look set to be very costly for businesses according to their own analysis. On top of the expected employers NI contribution increase things are looking bleak for growth. I predict many job cuts https://www.thesun.co.uk/money/31225568/labours-worker-reforms-cost/ -

A man who was jailed in 2014 for overstaying his visa, forging a right to work document and claiming £50k in benefits was given a job processing universal credit claims. He said he did nothing wrong as the DBS said he didn't have to declare anything older than 5 years. This isn't always true. If a conviction leads to a jail sentence it should show up on a DBS no matter how long ago.The fact that he didn't declare it shouldn't have stopped the police from including it, so the fact it came back clear is worrying! He has now been dismissed for a reason unrelated to this apparently -

The Food Standards Agency has made us aware they're warning people with a peanut allergy to avoid consuming foods that contain, or might contain, mustard, mustard powder, or mustard flour, because these ingredients may have been contaminated with peanuts. These ingredients can be found in food such as dips, sauces, salads and pre-packed sandwiches. -

I've watched with interest the videos and interviews with prisoners on early release today.some grateful, others cocky and saying they will go back to crime, and I wonder how much hotels are costing us and how many will reoffend? I know personally 2 people released, one home to Windsor, the other to the bail and probation accommodation in Milton Keynes, who have very different thoughts on it. What do you all feel will happen now? -

I'll start.. Afghan women came to Scotland to finish degrees Nineteen female medical students who were banned from attending university in Afghanistan arrived in Scotland on Wednesday to complete their studies. The women were forced to give up their education when the Taliban took control of the country three years ago and rolled back women’s rights. However, the Linda Norgrove Foundation – a charity set up by the parents of Scottish charity worker, Linda Norgrove, who was killed in Afghanistan in 2010 – arranged a safe passage and student visas for the women so they could complete their studies. “We endured 1,000 days of suffering to reach this point, 1,000 days of being confined to our homes, of having our voices silenced with nothing but tears and sorrow, our lives wasting away,” said Omulbanin Sultani, one of the students. “When we heard about the visa approval, we were so excited I felt like I was flying. We are going from hell to paradise.” -
