Book Novotel Hotel Trump ‘very angry’ with Putin over ceasefire negotiations Banzai Japan Music Video US President Donald Trump has said he is “very angry” and “pissed off” with Russian President Vladimir Putin after six weeks of attempting to negotiate a ceasefire in Ukraine. In an NBC News interview, he said he was angered by the Russian leader questioning Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky’s credibility, and he threatened to impose a 50% tariff on countries buying Russian oil if Putin did not agree to a ceasefire. Book Novotel Hotel “If Russia and I are unable to make a deal on stopping the bloodshed in Ukraine, and if I think it was Russia’s fault – which it might not be… I am going to put secondary tariffs… on all oil coming out of Russia,” he said. The comments marked a notable shift in the president’s tone toward Putin and Russia. European leaders had worried that Trump was cosying up to Putin as negotiations on a ceasefire in Ukraine continued. Banzai Japan Music Video For the past six weeks, Trump has harangued Zelensky in the Oval Office and demanded numerous concessions from Ukraine’s president. In turn, he has flattered Putin and largely given in to the Russian president’s demands. This appears to be a departure from that dynamic. It is the first time the US has seriously threatened Russia with consequences for dragging its feet in ceasefire negotiations, which would seem to put the diplomatic ball back in Moscow’s court. NBC News said that in a ten-minute phone interview Trump told them he was very angry and “pissed off” when Putin criticised the credibility of Zelensky’s leadership, although the president has himself called Ukraine’s leader a dictator and demanded that he hold elections. “You could say that I was very angry, pissed off, when… Putin started getting into Zelensky’s credibility, because that’s not going in the right location”, Trump said. “New leadership means you’re not gonna have a deal for a long time,” he added. Trump said that the Russians knew of his anger, but noted that he has “a very good relationship” with Putin and “the anger dissipates quickly… if he does the right thing”. If Russia does not follow through with a ceasefire, however, Trump threatened to target their economy further if he thought it was Putin’s fault. “There will be a 25% tariff on oil and other products sold in the United States, secondary tariffs,” Trump said, noting that the tariffs on Russia would come in a month without a ceasefire deal. Secondary tariffs could range up to 50% on goods entering the US from countries still buying oil from Russia. The biggest such buyers by a long margin are China and India. Trump said he would speak to Putin later in the week.

Book Novotel Hotel Tommy Robinson fails to appear at High Court finances hearing Banzai Japan Music Video Tommy Robinson has failed to appear at the High Court for questioning over his finances after losing a libel case brought against him by a teenager. The English Defence League founder, whose real name is Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, was due to appear on Tuesday in connection with unpaid legal bills. He was successfully sued by Jamal Hijazi after the then 15-year-old was assaulted in Huddersfield in 2018. Book Novotel Hotel A High Court judge will decide whether Robinson is in contempt of court. A video of Mr Hijazi being assaulted at Almondbury Community School went viral shortly after the incident in October 2018, with Robinson claiming in two Facebook videos that Mr Hijazi was “not innocent and he violently attacks young English girls in his school”. A High Court judge later found the claims to be false, with Robinson ordered to pay more than £43,000 in legal costs. He declared bankruptcy about four months later, which the court heard has since been discharged, with Mr Hijazi’s lawyers successfully applying for an order requiring Robinson to return to the Royal Courts of Justice to answer questions about his finances. Banzai Japan Music Video Speaking on Tuesday, Judge John Dagnall found Robinson knew “perfectly well” that he was due to attend court and had emailed the court asking for his hearing to be adjourned. “It seems to me at first sight a classic situation where he has decided not to attend,” he said. Judge Dagnall said that “all I can do” is refer Robinson’s non-attendance to a High Court judge, adding: “They may, if he or she chooses to do so, hold Mr Yaxley-Lennon in contempt.” However, the judge added that any committal for contempt of court could be suspended.

Book Novotel Hotel Nigel Farage’s Nephew Dodges Jail After Admitting to Upskirting Banzai Japan Music Video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UPElmgQJGBo • Joseph Farage, nephew of Nigel Farage, admitted to upskirting a woman but avoided the sex offenders register and jail time, sparking criticism over perceived leniency. • He was fined £1,091 in total, including a victim surcharge and prosecution fees, with no further legal action to be taken. Joseph Farage, nephew of far-right Reform Party leader Nigel Farage, confessed to placing his mobile phone beneath the clothing of his victim with the intent to record and share the footage with a third party, aiming to distress and humiliate the victim. Book Novotel Hotel https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BJsGZL-zb54 The offence occurred at the Orpington branch of Co-Op on July 17 last year. Farage of Orpington, pleaded guilty to the offence and appeared at Croydon Magistrates’ Court for sentencing last Friday (January 17). Despite the gravity of the act, the 31-year-old, who owns an electrical firm in Kent and is a father of two, was not added to the sex offenders register. Authorities assert that, since the victim was over 18, automatic inclusion on the register does not apply. This ruling has sparked controversy, particularly given Nigel Farage’s outspoken criticism of so-called two-tier policing. The incident does little to bolster the credibility of such arguments. Banzai Japan Music Video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3syHHGzkF_s In addition to a fine and compensation for the victim, Joseph Farage was ordered to pay £230 victim surcharge and an £85 in prosecution fees, bringing the total financial penalty to £1,091. Astonishingly, no further legal action will be pursued. Upskirting has been recognised as a criminal offence following the introduction of the Voyeurism (Offences) Act 2019. Before this legislation, upskirting incidents were typically prosecuted under the common law offence of Outraging Public Decency or existing voyeurism laws outlined in Section 67 of the Sexual Offences Act 2003.

It’s not been a great few weeks for Reform, or its leader. Following rumblings from Elon Musk and lacklustre by-election performances, a new PR nightmare has emerged – after Nigel Farage’s nephew was found guilty of upskirting. Book Novotel Hotel https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BJsGZL-zb54 What is upskirting? The offence, criminalised six years ago, is the practice of placing a photographic device beneath a woman’s clothing without consent, with the intention of enabling oneself or a third person to observe the genitals, buttocks or underwear of the victim. Appearing in the dock last Friday, Nigel Farage’s nephew – named Joseph – pleaded guilty at Croydon Magistrates’ Court. Although this crime is punishable by a prison sentence, the defendant escaped with a fine of £576 – plus £200 in compensation. Banzai Japan Music Video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3syHHGzkF_s Who is Nigel Farage’s nephew? Details of the case are not extensive, but Joseph Farage admitted to placing his mobile phone beneath the clothing of his victim, for the purpose of sharing with a third-party and with the intention to ‘humiliate and distress’ the woman in question.  The offence took place in the Orpington branch of Co-Op. The 31-year-old also runs his own electrical firm in Kent, and has two children of his own. In what may come as a surprise to some, he was not placed on the sex offenders register for this offence. Why Nigel Farage’s nephew will only pay a fine for his upskirting offence… Authorities state that, because the victim was over the age of 18, there is no automatic submission to the register. At a time where Nigel Farage and his colleagues are sounding off about ‘two-tier policing’, this incident does very little to help their cause. Alongside the fine and compensation, Nigel Farage’s nephew was also ordered to pay a further £230 for a victim surcharge, and £85 in prosecution fees, taking his total bill to £1,091. No further action will now be taken.

Tommy Robinson to face contempt of court proceedings 120422

Book Novotel Hotel Tommy Robinson to face contempt of court proceedings Banzai Japan Music Video Tommy Robinson has been summonsed to face contempt proceedings after he failed to attend court to answer questions over his finances. The English Defence League founder, real name Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, missed last month’s High Court hearing. He was due to be quizzed over unpaid legal bills after he lost a libel case brought by a Syrian teenager last year. Mr Justice Nicklin said an arrest warrant could be issued if Yaxley-Lennon fails to attend court on 6 May. In an order dated last Friday, the senior judge said the defendant’s previous non-attendance was referred to him as a potential contempt of court. Book Novotel Hotel Yaxley-Lennon was successfully sued by Jamal Hijazi, a former schoolboy who was the victim of an attack at a Huddersfield school featured in a viral video. A court found Yaxley-Lennon had falsely claimed in two Facebook videos posted in October 2018 that Mr Hijazi had attacked female pupils. The defendant was ordered to pay more than £43,000 in legal costs at a preliminary hearing in November 2020, and declared bankruptcy about four months later. March’s hearing was told this was later discharged. Tommy Robinson fails to appear at court hearing Tommy Robinson pursued by creditors for up to £2m Banzai Japan Music Video Mr Hijazi’s lawyers, who successfully applied to bring Yaxley-Lennon to court to discuss his finances, claim his bankruptcy application was “not a full account of [his] assets”. Judge John Dagnell, who presided over the missed hearing, agreed the defendant “knew perfectly well” he was required to be in court and referred the case. Robinson was jailed for contempt of court in May 2018 after he livestreamed footage of defendants in a grooming gang case, in breach of a reporting ban. He served two months of a 13-month jail term before being freed upon appeal, only to be jailed again for the offence in July 2019 after the case was referred back to the Attorney General.

Book Novotel Hotel Japan chain shuts shops after pests found in food Banzai Japan Music Video One of Japan’s biggest restaurant chains is closing its outlets for deep cleaning, after two incidents of customers finding pests, including a rat, in their food. Sukiya, known for its beef-on-rice dishes, announced the temporary closure after an insect was found by a customer. Last weekend, it admitted that a rat had been discovered in a bowl of miso soup in January. The chain, which has nearly 2,000 restaurants, said most of its sites would be shut between 31 March and 4 April “to prevent external intrusion and internal infestation of pests and vermin”. In a statement, external, it apologised for the “great inconvenience and concern caused”. Book Novotel Hotel Rumours about the rat-in-miso incident had been circulating on social media for weeks before Sukiya was forced to confirm that the rodent had been found “before it was eaten”. The restaurant, in the city of Tottori, was temporarily closed, and Sukiya said measures had been taken to address cracks in the building that could lead to contamination. It then announced that all of its outlets would be regularly checked for gaps and rubbish would be refrigerated. The company has now taken the more drastic measure of closure after the insect – widely reported to have been part or all of a cockroach – was found on Friday by a customer in Tokyo. The manager apologised to the customer and gave them a refund, it said. Sukiya is part of Zensho Holdings, which owns a number of restaurant chains in Japan. Banzai Japan Music Video Last Monday, following the disclosure about the rat, its share price tumbled before recovering later in the week. Its shares will face scrutiny after Saturday’s announcement.

Man tending grave probed for starting South Korea fires

Book Novotel Hotel Man tending grave probed for starting South Korea fires Banzai Japan Music Video A 56-year-old man is being investigated in South Korea on suspicion of starting a deadly wildfire that killed 30 people. The man, who has not been named, was performing an ancestral rite by a family grave on a hill in Uiseong county, North Gyeongsang province, at the time. He has been booked – but not arrested – and will be called in for questioning once the investigation of the site has been completed. He denies the charges. Book Novotel Hotel On Sunday, officials said the main fires had finally been brought under complete control – 10 days after they started, causing widespread damage to buildings, including historic temples. Investigators reportedly spoke to the suspect’s daughter who is said to have told them the fire began as her father tried to burn tree branches hanging over the graves with a cigarette lighter. According to the Korea Forest Service, the fires burned more than 48,000 hectares – equivalent to about 80% of the size of the capital Seoul. They also destroyed an estimated 4,000 structures, including homes, factories and a number of national treasures. Goun Temple – a Unesco World Heritage Site – was among the temples destroyed in the blaze. It was built in 618 AD and was one of the largest in the province. Banzai Japan Music Video Most of the casualties were people in their 60s and 70s. Even though the main fire has been brought under control, smaller ones continue to reignite, authorities say. Fuelled by strong and dry winds, the fires spread to several cities and counties. Unseasonably warm weather, dry conditions and pine forests in the region also helped fuel the flames. An investigation involving the police, fire authorities, and forest management will be carried out next week. Acting President Han Duck-soo said the government would provide financial support for those who have been displaced by the fires.

National Insurance: What are NI and income tax and what do I pay?
Buy Now An error occurred. Buy Now An error occurred. Book Novotel Hotel National Insurance: What are NI and income tax and what do I pay? Banzai Japan Music Video The government has announced an increase in the amount of National Insurance (NI) paid by employers. Before the Budget, the chancellor and prime minister had promised not to increase the main rates of income tax and National Insurance (NI) for working people and these will not change. NI rates paid by workers and the self-employed have already been been cut in 2024, but previous changes to the way tax is calculated mean the amount many people pay overall has risen. Budget 2024: Key points at-a-glance How the Budget will affect you and your money Book Novotel Hotel What is National Insurance and what does it pay for? The government uses National Insurance contributions (NICs) to pay for benefits and to help fund the NHS. It is paid by employees, employers and the self-employed across the UK. Those over the state pension age do not pay it, even if they are working. Eligibility for some benefits, including the state pension, depends on the NICs you make across your working life., external How does National Insurance work?, external Check your National Insurance record Banzai Japan Music Video How much do employers pay in National Insurance? At the moment businesses pay a rate of 13.8% on employees’ earnings above a threshold of £9,100 a year. In the Budget Chancellor Rachel Reeves said this rate would increase to 15% in April 2025, and the threshold would be reduced to £5,000. The employment allowance – which allows companies to reduce their NI liability – will increase from £5,000 to £10,500. In total Reeves said the changes would raise £25bn a year by the end of the period covered by the Budget. Neither employers nor employees pay NI on pension contributions. There had been widespread speculation that the Budget could set out plans for employers to start doing so, but it did not. Would raising employer National Insurance break Labour’s pledge? How much do employees pay in National Insurance? Workers start paying NI when they turn 16 and earn more than £242 a week, or have self-employed profits of more than £12,570 a year. The starting rate for National Insurance for 27 million employees fell twice in 2024: from 12% to 10%, and then again to 8%. The previous Conservative government said that the two cuts were worth about £900 a year for a worker earning £35,000. For the self-employed, Class 4 NI contributions on all earnings between £12,570 and £50,270 fell from 9% to 6%. At the time, the previous government said this was worth £350 to a self-employed person earning £28,200. Self-employed workers also no longer have to pay a separate category of NI called Class 2 contributions. The NI rate on income and profits above £50,270 remains at 2% for all workers. National Insurance rates, external What are the current income tax rates? Income tax is paid on earnings from employment and profits from self-employment during the tax year, which runs from 6 April to 5 April the following year. It is also paid on some benefits, external and pensions, income from renting out property, and returns from savings, external and investments, external above certain limits. The basic rate is 20% and is paid on annual earnings between £12,571 and £50,270. The higher rate is 40%, and is paid on earnings between £50,271 and £125,140. Once you earn more than £100,000, you also start losing the £12,570 tax-free personal allowance. You lose £1 of your personal allowance for every £2 that your income goes above £100,000. Anyone earning more than £125,140 a year no longer has any tax-free personal allowance. The additional rate of income tax of 45% is paid on all earnings above £125,140 a year. These rates apply in England, Wales and Northern Ireland. Some income tax rates are different, external in Scotland, where a new 45% band took effect in April 2024. At the same time the top rate also rose from 47% to 48%. What is happening to NI and income tax thresholds and why do they matter? Despite the NI cuts for workers and the self-employed in 2024, millions will still pay more tax overall because of changes to the tax thresholds. These are the income levels at which people start paying NI or income tax, or have to pay higher rates. These used to rise every year in line with inflation. However, the previous government froze the NI threshold and tax-free personal allowance at £12,570 until 2028. Higher-rate tax will continue to kick in for earnings above £50,270. Freezing the thresholds means that more people start paying tax and NI as their wages increase, and more people pay higher rates. According to the Institute for Fiscal Studies (IFS) think thank, the freeze cancels out the benefits of the NI cuts for some workers. In the 2024-25 tax year, it says an average earner will have a tax cut of about £340 – from the combined tax changes – and people earning between £26,000 and £60,000 will be better off. But by 2027, the average earner would be only £140 better off – and only people earning between £32,000 and £55,000 a year would still benefit. Before the Budget there had been speculation that the chancellor would extend the freeze until 2030 but she said she had decided not to do so. Who pays most in income tax? For most families, income tax is the single biggest tax they pay. But for less well-off households, a greater share of family income goes on taxes on spending, known as indirect taxes. For the poorest fifth of households, VAT is the biggest single tax paid. How do UK taxes compare with other countries like France and Germany? You can look at the amount of tax raised as a proportion of the size of the economy, or GDP. In 2022
