Suella Braverman seeks to curb use of tents by homeless people - saying it is 'a lifestyle choice'
  • I doubt anyone chooses to sleep in a tent outside m&s if there were decent alternatives, not hostels where you risk you minimal possessions or even safety. Make the shelters better and better prospects. If the people are here illegally then use that avenue, if they are legal then we should help those less fortunate not leave them to freeze

    Is charging electric car at holiday house "theft"?
  • I get it's different, but is it theft. If there was a wattmeter and I filled an inflatable swimming pools every day would that be theft... What if I brought an inflatable hot tub and ran the heater for the week. If electricity is included in the rate that implies the guest can use what they want

    Mystery over proposed bus gate in Biggleswade
  • This is why nothing ever gets done as the jobsworth councils want evreything discussed to nth degree. Set up the signs for bus only..if too many drivers still go through it discuss camera control. Why is a camera watching prohibited vehicles passing a bus only sign "very intrusive".

    They have now discussed it anyway so crack on. But guess they haven't had their 5th point of order and consulted the minutes from the 14th umpteen times

    Is charging electric car at holiday house "theft"?
  • I get the safety concerns but does she say "no charging cars" in the terms and conditions. I am not sure this is theft any more than charging mobile phones and tablets would be. If she is worried about how much electricity then take meter readings and make it accepted terms that all electricity is to be paid for. What if one guest choses to use the oven for a five course meal. Is that theft of electricry
