The waste of £48k. on unnecessarily revamping the National Savings logo (TelMoney210821) is another example of how badly governed the UK is @BorisJohnson and exemplifies the attitude of those working in the State sector that (taxpayers') money grows on trees.
"Heating will be unaffordable if gas is phased out".I sympathise @LettersDesk with your correspondent JM 020721 but unless there are UKOGBANIPs willing2 stand as candidates for 'planning not banning' the establishment will enforce things the public oppose e.g. banning gas boilers
You write @MikeJGWright DTel040621 that 40k. victims lost £150 million to on-line bank fraud in 2020. How does this compare with 'traditional' (not on-line) bank fraud?
Cows&Cryptos @RachelMillardAS you write DTelB140621-"way to generate money which isn't government backed".Quite;crypto currencies are not backed by any known assets. UK £ is backed by all assets owned by Crown&Government +intangible assets e.g. political stability, work ethic etc
J.Cunliffe @bankofengland says it needs own digital pound-"Britcoin"(DTelB140521). 95% of all £s sterling are already digital-only c.5% exist as notes/coins; the rest are stored on books of account (mostly electronic). A "Britcoin" issue would simply be more 'quantitative easing'
Dairy Development Group @sainsburys ="over 260 farmers who we have worked in partnership with since 2007"; this should read, "over 260 farmers with whom we have worked in partnership since 2007". #useofEnglish
Further to your DTel article 010621 @haylesdixon about charities' salaries, it would also be helpful to know whether they provide defined benefits pension schemes and whether these have deficits.
Thankyou @haylesdixon for your DTel 010621 article on the high salaries of charities' staff. This is exacerbated by Government giving taxpayers' money to charities; they should not do this. They should leave the money in taxpayers' pockets & let them decide what donations to make
There needs to be UKOGBANIPs-United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland Persons-who will stand as independent candidates on whatever issues concern them e.g. access to GPs, lack of local banks, 'smart' meters, banning petrol cars, care in the community, NI Protocol etc.

Thankyou @louise_watt for your article (DTel030621) informing us president Xi Jinping said that China needs to create a "trustworthy, loveable and respectable" image abroad. The image will appear if the actions support the words. We live in hope. @LettersDesk #Tibet #HongKong etc
ABailey @bankofengland is right to say, DTel140521 @tomelleryrees that crypto currency "has no intrinsic value"-this is because it is not backed by any known assets-unlike sovereign currencies which are backed by the total tangible & intangible assets owned by the issuing State.
I gather from the Queen's speech that @BorisJohnson intends legislation on #FreedomOfSpeech at Universities; this should be covered by their Charters; that of Birmingham, for example, says it will not discriminate on the grounds of political opinion @LettersDesk @Nigel_Farage
I quite agree. This is another example of the State sector not providing the level of service to which the public is entitled - and pays for. The right to face to face GP appointments for NHS patients should be guaranteed. #FacetofaceGPappointments
As part of the #NHS's recovery face-to-face GP appointments must be restored as the default and remote consultations offered as an option for those who prefer them.

"No guarantees for steel plants & workers" - you write @Tim_Wallace DTelB140421.'Necessary to have steel in UK', says @KwasiKwarteng If @BorisJohnson & the climate change committee get their way and close our remaining blast furnaces by 2035, the UK won't have a steel industry.
"Dog owner 'heartbroken'over seal attack" Uwrite DTel 250321 @DominicPenna -'Police confirm .. after brief investigation .. no laws .. broken'. According to GOV.UK it is against the law to let a dog be dangerously out of control anywhere, including public places.
Stamp out the duty @MelissaLawford Uwrite DTel 160221 We can not afford tax reductions until books have been balanced @RishiSunak To avoid cliff edge, stamp duty should be phased back in at 10% steps over the next 10 months.
