"Since ppl in west aren't willing to fight in Ukraine it was never a war Ukraine would win. "

But it was a war that should never have started. Russia signed an agreement which they have now reneged on, it matters not that it was signed 30 years ago! They cannot be allowed to get away with this. Read the agreement that Russia signed! Putin does not have a leg to stand on!

I am not aware of any cap on Council Tax raises.

Some hefty way above inflation increases across the board in Scotland.

"That is obscene 🙄 Is it a Labour council ?"

No. Nor is it Tory, Lib Dem, SNP, Green or any other political party. They are all independent councillor's.

The council where I live announced a 15% rise in council tax yesterday.

"Like I said b4, our mate Keir is playing a blinder. We should all be very grateful to keir, Rachel and Labour for what they are doing for this country."

But like you said b4 on 3rd February...............

"Sir Keir is a t___er. I'd far prefer to see Corbyn leading the Labour Party and the County."

It’s not just aspiring buyers who need affordable, quality homes, but renters too – and we’re delivering them, says Craig Luttman, chief strategy officer at Lloyds Living.

US Markets recovered early losses yesterday but then dived again before close after Trump said reciprocal tariffs will be applied from 2nd April on any countries that impose tariffs on America in retaliation against American tariffs that came into effect yesterday. But Lloyds ADR LYG closing price was up closing at $3.82, a rise of +3.8%. I cannot see any news which would explain this rise for LYG? At current exchange rate that equates to a SP of 74.6p. Will we get a spike up in SP to reflect this when markets open this morning?
