The renumeration is minor, by having renumeration it means Coastguard Rescue Officers are classed as a “worker” and entitles the them to statutory protections under the law which otherwise wouldn’t apply. so they are not going to get anything facebook.com/photo/?fbid=160…

On a train from London Paddington to Cheltenham but saved nearly £30 by having ticket to Didcot, then ticket to Stroud then ticket to Cheltenham rather than one @GWRHelp ticket. Absolute madness.

The cost of electricity will rise by 6% from 1 July. So why is British Gas slashing by 20% the amount it pays homeowners when they sell back electricity from their solar panels? Are solar panels worth it anymore? With Madeleine Gabriel of Nesta @Moneybox noon @BBCRadio4

British Gas is cutting the amount it pays customers who have solar panels when they sell surplus electricity back. It did pay 15.1p/unit but is being cut to 12p - a 20% cut - from 6 July. And just 8p for bigger arrays. Has this affected you? DM or reply please. Thanks.

Construction contractor Ardmore downs tools under weight of historical building safety claims which have left them owing more than they have. As a result, many existing sites are now at a standstill and concerns rise that other contractors will follow suit as the chain of blame is passed down the line. Regardless, this get out of jail card for companies will leave leaseholders trapped for longer and Labour further from their housing target @tomhtimes @thetimes bit.ly/4erbRma

Ardmore Construction Group is going into administration today. £350m turnover. 10 live London projects abandoned this morning. Hotels in Mayfair and Kensington. Residential towers. King's Cross life sciences campus. If you live in London, you've almost certainly walked past a building they built. This isn't a business failure. This is what post-Grenfell liability looks like when it finally catches up with you. Building Liability Orders under the Building Safety Act can now pierce corporate structures and pursue parent companies for historic defects. Barratt, Taylor Wimpey and Bellway were all in the queue. Clients got nervous. New work dried up. Cash flow collapsed. 100 jobs. Unpaid subcontractors. Projects without a contractor. Ardmore won't be the last. #UKConstruction #BuildingSafety #Grenfell #BuildingLiabilityOrder #London #PropertyDevelopment #UKProperty constructionenquirer.com/202…
