Guess which lunatic said this

He told LBC Radio: “We’ve stabilised the economy with the Budget, but that’s not the limits of my ambition.

“I know we’ve got to do the tough stuff on planning, and we’re going to do the stuff, tough stuff on regulation. There’s more that we need to do.”

OK. I must have mis interpreted it. Fair enough. I would accept that as its pretty much how I saw it. I liked Cummings approach and had high hopes for him. However the Barnard Castle eyesight check was mad and he has seemed quite bitter and vengeful since then so a bit wary.

Cummings referring to the Tories who have diluted the influence of the cabinet & promoted civil servants & special advisors since the Thatcher era. It explains why many top Tories refused to serve as ministers & why the party lurched so markedly left.

I see global coal demand is rising - presumably to provide plentiful cheap energy and to support manufacturing so that Britain has somewhere to source the consumer goods it can no longer afford to produce itself and also so that there is plenty CO2 for Mad Militit to capture to save the world using our standing charges. At least he has ensured we dont produce any of that dirty coal from our own reserves or that smelly gas and oil. Poverty is virtuous

No compensation for WASPI. what an absolute disgraceful decision worsened by the accompanying statement by the Minister. Shortly after taking £300 WFP from pensioners - what a wonderful ‘socialistR17; government we have - acting far worse than any ‘right wing’ conservative government in history. Total disregard and disrespect towards all 65 plus year olds - so many of whom have paid PAYE and NI for some 40 years of their working life. Given their majority I guess it’s on the basis many pensioners won’t be around in 5 or 10 years to vote !

FCA responds to High Court motor finance judicial review decision.

We welcome the additional clarity the judgment brings to discretionary commission arrangement (DCA) complaints.

Looks like PPI mk2 hitting the banks.
This will drag on for months, whilst the banks assess and re-assess and re-assess provisions they have made for it.

Lloyds Living and Hill Group Break Ground on Exciting Build-to-Rent Project



Award-winning housebuilder The Hill Group has taken a significant step into the thriving Build-to-Rent (BtR) market by securing its first forward funding deal with Lloyds Living. This landmark partnership marks a major milestone for Hill Group as it ventures further into this expanding sector.

The inaugural project involves the creation of 264 rental apartments in Stevenage, Hertfordshire. It represents a key phase of a larger masterplan, led by Hill, to deliver 576 apartments in Stevenage town centre. Designed to meet modern living demands, the one and two-bedroom apartments will be spread across three state-of-the-art buildings and offer residents exclusive amenities such as an on-site concierge, gym, co-working spaces, and parking facilities.

Lloyds Living, the rental and shared ownership housing division of Lloyds Banking Group, is providing forward funding for the project and will oversee the management and leasing of the properties upon their scheduled completion in 2026.

Expanding Hill Group’s BtR Footprint

Building on its reputation as a trusted partner in the housebuilding industry, Hill is actively exploring BtR opportunities in collaboration with investors and partners. These initiatives include forward funding, forward commit, and joint ventures. The Stevenage development complements Hill’s growing pipeline of large-scale BtR projects, including flagship schemes in Coventry and Wembley.

Andy Hill OBE, founder and Group Chief Executive of The Hill Group, shared his enthusiasm for the venture: “We are thrilled to announce our first Build-to-Rent deal, underscoring our commitment to this dynamic market. By combining our expertise in creating vibrant living spaces with Lloyds Living’s proven track record as a funder and operator, we are confident this Stevenage development will set a benchmark for quality rental homes. With its prime location and excellent amenities, this project is perfectly tailored to meet the needs of the growing number of professionals seeking rental properties in the area.”

Meeting Housing Demand with Lloyds Living

Andy Hutchinson, CEO of Lloyds Living, highlighted the significance of the Build-to-Rent sector: “BtR plays a crucial role in addressing the UK’s housing needs. Partnering with Hill on projects like this enables us to deliver high-quality homes for rent in areas where they are most needed, alongside the facilities that modern renters prioritise.”

Looking Ahead

The Stevenage project exemplifies the potential of Build-to-Rent to transform urban living by providing professionally managed rental properties in vibrant, well-connected locations. With both Hill Group and Lloyds Living focused on quality and community, this partnership is poised to deliver homes that meet the evolving expectations of today’s renters while contributing to the regeneration of Stevenage town centre.
