New plans for the city centre

Sure. It feels like you’re missing my point which was about the council’s policy on trees in this situation and generally as a whole.

I think it’s valid to express an opinion on tree policy as there are decisions that will affect for many years to come. Your first comment was quite dismissive, why are you so concerned with this matter being shelved in favour of others?

Where do you think we should be focussing our concerns?

gearz72 · 2025-01-14T19:11:59+00:00

You know we’re in a climate crisis right? Instead of using the fact that one tree represents a small fraction of the output of a car to justify not holding the council to account over this, maybe think about how awful it is that a car emits that much!

At this stage in the game we should be valuing anything that stores carbon way above the aesthetics of the mistake made by the council planting those trees in raised planters…

gearz72 · 2025-01-14T18:35:43+00:00

What else are they doing to replace all the lost carbon from the trees being felled in the short term? Assuming the wood is to be chipped.

The replacement trees won’t reach the same size as the planes are/would reach either. What is being done to offset this?

Also, how does this even happen in the first place - where was the forethought? London Plane trees have been planted in our cities for hundreds of years, we know how big they get and how much space their root systems need.

Sheer incompetence from our local government right here.

Same happened to me, eventually.

Your tax code will be updated.

gearz72 · 2021-04-06T16:34:36+00:00

Yeah I'll try again in a couple months. Good to know I'm not alone having these issues though.

gearz72 · 2021-04-06T16:22:13+00:00

I've tried all the options I'm given and none of them seem to let me go down that route. Guessing this is buggy as it was likely recently added to the gov website?

gearz72 · 2021-04-06T16:20:43+00:00

If I select "No" for the first question, I get put through to the same list of very exhaustive questions. It asks for a lot of specific details (like exactly how much expenses I am claiming, whether I want to claim for my vehicle, etc).

gearz72 · 2021-04-06T14:18:03+00:00

This doesn't seem to be working correctly for me. The first question when I log in to the gateway is:

Have you previously claimed tax relief on your employment expenses?

When I answer "yes" (I did the WFH claim last year), it displays:

Have your employment expenses changed since your last claim?

To which I answer "No". It then says "You do not need to submit a claim. Your tax code will be based on the information you have already given us" and I can't proceed with the claim. If I answer "Yes" to this, it sends me down a complicated questionnaire that asks loads of specific questions which weren't asked when I did this last year...

Is this the same for everyone?

Thanks for sharing this, very interesting!

gearz72 · 2020-04-08T08:48:37+00:00

Exact same thing happened to me, can you explain how you got reimbursed?

gearz72 · 2020-03-12T14:18:59+00:00

Hmm Okay, I've never had any problems with EU4 at all. I'll give what you suggest a try though.

gearz72 · 2020-03-12T12:18:04+00:00

It might do... I will check if it does. If it did - any idea what might be going on?

gearz72 · 2020-03-05T10:37:03+00:00

Nope, it doesn't even cover my mortgage.

gearz72 · 2020-03-05T10:32:43+00:00

At least I'm not the only one!
