We investigate the recruitment tactics of violent terrorists attempting to spread hatred, and uncover proof that mainstream media and politicians may be playing into their hands.The episode features a deep-dive into a terrorist attack that no one remembers… the bombing of a Dover migrant centre late last year, that came with comments by the UK Home Secretary about an “invasion on our southern border”.

Plus, the Home Office has tried to clean up its act and says it will now refer to asylum seekers as “customers”. How compassionate.

A home office was a big thing during COVID. You could not go into the office building anymore so you carved out a niche in your home. Some were lucky where you actually had a separate room for a home office. Others had to carve out a space in an open living room (like me). Let's talk about home office ideas to make your space your own. In this episode I discuss: Reusing existing space to create a home office Dedicated home office space Carving out a small space in an open area Mentioned in this podcast: Rainy Days by Magnolia Home https://magnolia.com/shop/product/4767570052/rainy-days/ 22 easy home office updates https://bluediamondstaginganddesign.com/how-to/22-easy-home-office-updates/ Home staging Starter Kit bit.ly/stagingstarterkit

Asylum and 'home' - the impact of asylum dispersal and Syrian refugees' quest for home. Laurie Taylor talks to Jonathan Darling, Associate Professor in Human Geography at Durham University, about the system of housing and support for asylum seekers and refugees in Britain, from the first outsourced asylum accommodation contracts in 2012 to the renewed wave of outsourcing pursued by the Home Office today. Drawing on six years of research into Britain's dispersal system, and foregrounding the voices and experiences of refugees and asylum seekers, he argues that dispersal has caused suffering and played a central role in the erasure of asylum from public concern. Also, Vicki Squire, Professor of International Politics at the University of Warwick, discusses the narrative recollections of people who have survived the current Syrian War, only to confront the challenges of forced displacement and relocation, from the West Midlands to London, Canada. What is the meaning of home to those who are subjected to complex migratory journeys and carry memories of extended family, community and homeland in a conflict which has displaced half the population? How do refugees create home ‘away' from home? Producer: Jayne Egerton

The accountable plan is a policy within your company or your entity, which outlines how you reimburse yourself as an owner, employee, or shareholder-employee. And if you have team members within your business, the accountable plan is a good policy for them to get reimbursed for expenses as well. One of the ways you get compensated for your business is wages, distributions, and expenses. And so, you've got to know which for what and an accountable plan is a great way to get reimbursed for those expenses. But first, let's differentiate home office reimbursements from home office deductions. Yep! Those two are not the same. The home office deduction is for the Schedule C filer, which is the sole proprietor or the single member LLC. The home office reimbursement, on the other hand, is a potential tax strategy that a corporation or partnership can use in their accountable plan. Specifically, the home office reimbursement is an expense report to reimburse the employee of a corporation or a partnership when using their home for business purposes. Now, there's a process to determine accountable plan reimbursements for your home office. In this episode, we're going to walk you through what the process would look like when it comes to handling everything. In this episode, you will hear: What is an accountable plan? Understanding the annual operating costs of the home Owning a home vs. renting a home Can home renovation costs be included in your reimbursement?

Nowadays, your office can be wherever your laptop is, but you may be unaware that having a home office can lead to tax savings. Let's explore how you can legitimately and legally claim the home office deduction without any disputes from the IRS. One of the requirements for claiming a home office deduction is that the space must be used exclusively for business purposes. This means it cannot be your couch, bed, or kitchen island. The IRS is very strict about this! Once you've determined you have a qualifying space, there are two major approaches to deducting a home office if you're a qualifying sole proprietor or owner of a single member LLC: using the simplified method or the actual cost method (spoiler alert, the actual cost method has the potential to save you more). Even if you're an employee of your S Corp or C Corp, you can take a home office deduction, the benefits are actually even greater this way! What you'll hear in this episode: [1:30] Qualifying your home office - what you can and cannot do [5:00] If you aren't a W2 employee in your business, use this method [7:00] The simplified method and the actual cost method [10:00] What to do when you're a W2 employee of your business - the accountable plan [13:00] Is the home office deduction a red flag for audit? [14:30] What if you moved during the year? * Related episodes: 237. Tax Tips for Short Term Rental Owners with Ryan Bakke 238. Why Your Tax Pro Says No to Creative Strategies 241.

Acute labour shortages have led to some UK meat processors moving their work abroad. Whole carcasses are being exported overseas to be butchered and distributed because they can't get the staff to do it here. The British Meat Processors Association says that affects productivity and investment in UK plants. They want butchers to be included on the Home Office shortage occupation list so that they can recruit more workers from abroad. Growing strawberries all year round is a challenge for British producers. We take a tour of the UK's first producer to do that. An entrepreneur has transformed a warehouse in Essex into a vertical farm. Fruit is grown on shelves reaching twelve metres up to the roof, under LED lights. The plants are pollinated by bees, while pests are controlled by predators rather than chemicals. We've been looking at reintroductions of plants, insects and mammals all week. Wildcats are the UK's only native cat species. They look like a large stocky tabby cat, but with a black banded bushy tail. Only small numbers remain in the Scottish Highlands, and even there they are close to extinction. But Wildcats could be reintroduced to Devon, if conditions are right and local communities support the idea. Devon Wildlife Trust is investigating the feasibility of bringing back Wildcats after an absence of more than 100 years. Presenter = Caz Graham Producer = Rebecca Rooney
Shamima Begum, the British schoolgirl who left London when she was 15 to travel to Syria and join Islamic State, has lost an appeal to return to the UK. The former ISIS bride, now 23 years old, remains in a refugee camp in northern Syria as the Home Office's decision to deprive her of British citizenship was upheld.On the Sky News Daily, Sally Lockwood is joined by Richard Barrett, the former director of global terrorism operations at MI6, who contributed to the appeal report to discuss the advice he gave.

The Government needs to 'go back to the drawing board' and re-design the visa system for seasonal workers in food and farming. That's according to researcher, Dr Lydia Medland from the University of Bristol, who says the current scheme leaves both workers and operators vulnerable. 45,000 visas are available this year for people to come to the UK to work on farms or in food processing. Last week we reported that one of the 6 firms which operates the scheme has had its licence revoked - the Home Office wouldn't tell us why and the company says the revocation is unjust and is considering appealing. We hear how species re-introductions can be used to restore ecosystem services like pollination or nutrient cycling. And Asia and North Africa are the most exciting emerging export markets for British livestock farmers over the next decade - according to a new report published today by the industry body AHDB.

Der Direktor Ausbildung der Führungsakademie trifft auf einen der profiliertesten Scale-Up Unternehmer unseres Landes. Das ganze war zunächst nicht als Podcast gedacht, sondern es war ein Panel, das im House of New Work stattfand. Was können wir von den Führungsprinzipien der Bundeswehr lernen? Wie bildet die Bundeswehr ihr Top-Führungspersonal aus? Was hat das mit New Work zu tun? Arbeitet ein Admiral auch mal im Home Office? Und wie geht das in einem Scale-Up, das pro Jahr um 100% wächst? Wir finden, das ist so spannend, dass wir uns zu dieser Sonderfolge entschieden haben. Da hört Ihr dann solche Knaller-Zitate wie: Wir haben auch einen Company Hund.”, “Wenn man Leute ins Büro zwingt, um von dort aus Zoom Calls zu machen, dann verbindet man die Nachteile beider Welten.” oder “Das Prinzip der inneren Führung ist der Markenkern der Bundeswehr.” Dabei waren: - Flottillenadmiral Christian Bock, Führungsakademie - Sven Weizenegger, Leiter Cyber Innovation Hub der Bundeswehr (im Vorspann) - Alexander Graf, CEO und Co-Founder, Spryker - Henrik Lambertz, HR und New Work Advisory Blackboat und heute Moderator - Christoph Magnussen, Founder und CEO Blackboat
Knowsley is the suburb of Merseyside where a recent anti refugee protest turned into a riot outside a hotel housing asylum seekers. Amid violent scenes a police van was set on fire and 15 arrests made. This follows the firebombing last October of a processing centre for migrants in Dover. Back in 2016, the MP Jo Cox was murdered by Thomas Mair to advance the cause of white supremacism; while in 2019 neo Nazi Jack Renshaw was jailed for life for plotting to kill another MP Rosie Cooper – Renshaw, was a former member of the BNP and the now banned terrorist organisation National Action. Despite these and other incidents a review of the government's anti terror Programme Prevent by William Shawcross suggested that too much emphasis was being placed on radicalisation by the far right…not enough on Islamist extremism. His findings have been accepted by the Home Office. Does he have a point? Or is Shawcross in danger of downplaying one risk, while exaggerating another. Adrian Goldberg hears from Labour MP Afzal Khan, Professor John Holmwood a sociologist from Nottingham University and in a moment Zoe Gardener a long time migration rights campaigner.Produced in Birmingham by Adrian Goldberg and Harvey White.
