So are the republicans OK with making future generation pay for the war in Iraq, but not for stuff in America?

Friday, April 15th, 2011

“The financial cost of the war has been more than £4.5 billion ($9 billion) to the UK,[325] and over $845 billion to the U.S., with the total cost to the U.S. economy estimated at $3 trillion.”

Wikipedia via a reuters article from March 2, 2008, so it’s much more know. And look the number is bigger than the stimilus bill.
I forgot the cost of the lost of life of many servicepeople both in battle and through suicide.

Wednesday, April 13th, 2011

In 2050 will the world be dominated by “empires” such as China, India, EU, USA, Brazil-Argentina, the Arab Union, etc. that will exploit and search for all resources to gain a faster going economy and more money?

if you live on disability benefit in the uk, is your future in jeopardy?

Wednesday, February 9th, 2011

im in the uk, iam nearly 32 because of severe psychological struggles i have lived on disability benefit a long time now. my long term goal is to get qualifications in computers , get the correct therapeutic counseling , then i would like to leave england to live in spain or france , – a little coastal village , in my own house.

but until then, i remain living on sick benefits , and with the way the economy is , with rumors of cashless society’s , micro chips , identity cards – the NWO new world order – i cant help but be a little worried about what the future holds – i worry about revolutions , governments being over thrown etc.

i worry a lot about these concepts and because i rely on government for my housing and money etc – i fear i will face a horrible peril – or that, i will be banished or vanquished forever .

can anybody provide any input or reassurance on this ?

UK Nuclear Power Industry – Committing to the Future

The UK is going through a transitional period in regards to their energy generation.  Many of the old nuclear power stations are coming to the end of their lifespan and a drive to reduce the number of inefficient old coal power plants, nuclear energy is firmly established as an important part of the future energy production.

The UK was one of the world’s leaders in domestic nuclear power, dating back to 1956 when the first nuclear power station was put into operation. At present, the number of nuclear power stations in the UK stands at 18, as some stations have already begun to close. Back in 1997, nuclear stations generated approximately 26% of the total electricity output in the UK. Currently nuclear energy accounts for about 15% of electricity production, with a wider reliance on gas and coal powered stations. The goal of the Department of Energy is to increase this output to over a third by 2030.

In the spring of 2009, the UK government announced the “Low Carbon Transition Plan” which aims to ensure that, by 2020, 40% of electricity will be produced by low-carbon sources. This ambitious proportion would be made up from 30% renewable energy sources such as wind power, and the remainder from nuclear and the so called “clean coal” power stations.  The result of this would be around 50% of the annual emission cuts required between now and 2020 expected to be achieved by making this move.  These shifts in the balance of power generation will lead to more nuclear jobs and power generation jobs right across the UK.

The issue continues to be topical and looks set to form an important part of the run up to the 2010 General Elections, because there is much concern over the costs of implementing such large scale changes to the energy infrastructure, but equally there are concerns that by not doing so will leave the UK facing an energy crisis.  In his speech at the 2009 Labour Annual Conference in Brighton on the 27/09/09, the Energy Secretary Ed Miliband said the UK government must be the leaders in the way of reform to help create “a more prosperous, fairer and greener Britain”.  He envisaged this being done by investing in green manufacturing and being prepared to foot the high costs involved in moving towards a low-carbon economy.  This is quite a departure from energy polices of old, with an increasing reliance on being up front about the increased costs, with a view to increased long term economic and environmental benefits.

Whatever the outcome of the next election, there are sure to be a number of new large scale energy projects throughout the country which can only be good news for technical recruitment with nuclear energy jobs sure to become a skill that is further in demand.

Not So Bad

IT Contractors have not been nearly so badly hit in this downturn as in previous downturns. In the main companies are seeing IT as core to what they do rather than as a non-core process and see them now as an enabler of both growth and cost cutting rather than as a cost in itself which should be chopped when a downturn comes. Even when they wanted to cut costs they cut IT Contractors rates rather than get rid of them altogether.

Those rate cuts are now getting reversed as the economy recovers.

Sea Change

This sea change in perceptions by companies means that IT Contractors now inhabit a much safer profession and will not have long periods on the bench spending the money they built up during the good times. The first phase of the current economic activity started with companies hiring more contractors. They always do that early on in a recovery as they don’t want to take on premise while the recovery is not certain. Now, we are in the phase, according to what agencies are telling us, where the emphasis has moved to the premise and they are the ones who are doing best.

Not a Problem

This is not a problem for IT Contractors as the more permies that get back to work the better. IT Contractors do best when there is a shortage of permies to fill roles.

Looking Good

As far as the UK economy is concerned it is looking good. Before the last election Labour was saying that the best way to cut the budget deficit was to strengthen the economy so that higher tax payments would cut the amount we need to borrow. The Conservatives were saying we needed to cut as soon as we can so that we didn’t have a run on sterling and end up like Greece. The danger with the Conservatives policies was that they would stunt economic growth and cut tax receipts. Indeed after their emergency budget recently with the cuts the Treasury cut their growth predictions from 2.1% for this year to 1.6%.

Labour wanted to wait till the economic recovery is more secure before making the necessary cuts.

New Figures

Figures announced yesterday showed corporation tax receipts rising by the biggest amount since the 1980s. Net borrowing in July fell to £3.8bn from £6.1bn. That’s fantastic news. Corporation tax rose an astonishing 38% to £8.5bn. That’s not just a fluke as July is one of the biggest months for Corporation Tax receipts.

Better News

It means that the budget deficit is not going to be anywhere near what the Government expected. It also means that if the Coalition made cuts now it would be at a time when the private sector is able to take up the slack of growing the economy and creating employment. Of course, growth will be slower than it would have been but that shouldn’t be too much of a problem. The Budget predicted that growth in tax receipts to date this year would be 6.5% and these figures show that it has grown by 8.5% meaning that we are in a much better position than we thought we would be.

IT Contractors

This is all good news for IT Contractors because it means that the economy is now strong enough to withstand any budget cuts. It looks as if we are now in for a good few years of growth in the economy and in IT Contractor numbers and rates.
