Jamaica, very good come back. I think the passport is from the 1960s - It is very strange that it said 'British Passport'. However a 1963 NZ passport also says 'British Passport' .

Land Value Tax is the answer - the wealthy are hiding behind family farms. Land now accounts for 51% of the UK’s net worth. That is because because successive governments have used tax exemptions and other advantages to turn the ground beneath our feet into a speculative money machine.

The Conservatives undoubtedly left this government a dire fiscal inheritance, that's no excuse to push more pensioners into poverty as it snows and the temperature plummets.

You can have a farm worth £millions on paper, and still earn less than the minimum wage. If you have to sell it to pay IHT, the farm may well fall into the hands of massive corporate types. This reduces food production, harms the environment and is simply unjust.

Evidence from Citizens Advice shows that franchising post offices results in longer queues and service times, inferior customer service and advice, poor disabled access, and fewer counter positions.
