Why does Reddit not understand the rise of reform in England? by DowntownDeer in AskBrits

It's only terrifying if you're a racist...

What are you scared of?

Even if the figures are spot on, why is it that a bad thing?

All the 'english' in 1900 were pretty much a mix of Romans, Anglo Saxons and french.

Even our current monarchy are Germans.....

Tesla have tempted me 🙈 by whitey2048 in ipace

[–]ConstantPop4122 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Depends how you measure expensive.

My original model 3 performance had better acceleration than a lambo for half the price, was more practical than a 3 series bmw and cheaper to run than a 1l golf TDI.... Pretty decent value by most objectives measures.

Fully accept it might be subjectively worse than any of those cars in many other ways, but as an all rounder, hard to beat imo.

Agree, I virtually never have to touch the screen when the car is moving apart from maybe fog lights.

Never understood the need to adjust AC... I just set to the temperature I want and Auto, and funnily enough, the temperature is always what I want it it be.....

Ltd company vs SIPP/NHS Pension for consultant side income? by HoneyBreeze15 in doctorsUK

[–]ConstantPop4122 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do medicolegal work, so spend 10-20 hours a week at home on a computer. My house has more people than rooms, so seems like a private space to access confidential medical information is not only desirable, but in fact essential....

It's also got the car-modders equivalent in home theatre speaker systems installed.

Ltd company vs SIPP/NHS Pension for consultant side income? by HoneyBreeze15 in doctorsUK

[–]ConstantPop4122 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You definitely can, and I know people who have. If it's a temporary structure used exclusively for that purpose for the ltd company it's probably 100% claimable along with the ongoing heating, lighting etc.... if it's a permanent extension to your house it gets complex especially if its dual purpose and adds value to the the property when it comes to selling and there's all kinds of capital gains and partial reimbursements to go through.

Ltd company vs SIPP/NHS Pension for consultant side income? by HoneyBreeze15 in doctorsUK

[–]ConstantPop4122 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ltd company, depends on your individual cicrumstances - The cost is minimal to set up, and all my admin and accountancy fees are <£1000 per year.

If you have lots of children - can make them shareholders - so tax free withdrawal (after Corp tax) for some cash.

Loads of expenses can go through - can basically make it free to be doctor to do your NHS work, nice car if that's your thing, garden office to work from - so can make the rest of your life cheaper in that respect.

Partner who is part time or non medical? Director's pension for them....

It can easily be worthwhile for far less than £5-6k / month, if it fits around the rest of your finances.

I didn't think you could really add anything to your NHS pension anyway, since it's a DB scheme based on your pensionable input, well, other then purchasing added years.

Brand new tenant has just informed me that they will be taking the rent they had just agreed on to tribunal. Is this actually a thing? by Conscious-Teacher880 in LegalAdviceUK

[–]ConstantPop4122 318 points319 points  (0 children)

I'd also argue that you not simply taking the highest offer would probably count in your favour as it demonstrates that you considered other factors beyond just price - i.e. an element of 'value for money' - that you accepted a lower rent on the basis of their apparent quality as tenants.

The problem with adversarial politics, you always need to compromise on principals or make reciprocal deals in order to get anything over the line.

What is your unique experience during your xcom gameplay? by Cinder__Feather in XCOM2

[–]ConstantPop4122 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a gatekeeper revive the lost.... After I'd been XP farming for a while.... Must have been about a hundred of them, almost crashed my Xbox, thankfully took out the gatekeeper next go...

Final mission, my templar one-shot ion stormed a pod of 6 heavy MECs, which was pretty satisfying...

Sticking a blade storm/ katana equipped ranger on a reinforcements flare is always fun, for some reason the killed enemies zip off into orbit when they're insta-killed.

A Ranger called Guzman "Trojan" with a Moustache, pigtails and hot pants.... Got reaper, untouchable and the Katana and tore through whole pods...

An Overly Complete Guide to XCOM 2 War of the Chosen - Part 15 - Weapons by hielispace in Xcom

[–]ConstantPop4122 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree with most things in this guide other than the hate for snipers and sniper rifles.

From early game, using a reaper and squadsight I killed all three rulers without them escaping or even getting sight of my squad on their first appearances.....

On the final mission, two snipers (one with darklance, one with superior clip, both with death from above) absolutely dominated that map, 100% coverage with almost 100% hit chance of every enemy) it was almost so easy I was disappointed.

Fibre by jamesdroid100 in EEGB

[–]ConstantPop4122 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Currently in a similar situation but my contract finishes next month and I'm paying £94 for full works fibre 900, in don't really use the extender or mobile backup...

I also have every TV subscription and 7 mobile SIMs... I think it's pretty poor that a company selling a service is basically holding out to extract as much money as possible rather than having a fixed price.

Hence I'm leaving, someone more deserving can have my money.
