Yep people quoted jobs in advance and the cost of materials have over doubled in parts, so when they requote with a new price the customer either can't afford it or trys to find someone else. Inflation and other factors have made it very expensive to get work done.

This is a wind up yeah? Who resigns from a £118,300 a year job, because he can't afford his mortgage, to take up an £86,584 a year job?

George Freeman quit as minister as he 'couldn't afford' mortgage

It is ridiculous, but he doesn't need to do much work for the £86,584, and is free to use his "knowledge" to sell access work as a consultant for thousands a day.

On £118,300 he had to work for the Government, and wasn't allowed to take a second job.

Nothing to do with a nanny state everything to do with educating children to care for their health.
Education has always had a health component teaching children to clean their teeth is the same as teaching children to wash their hands and eat healthy, it’s all part of learning in school. Learning is about teeth
At my school we had cookery, sewing and knitting for girls as well as house craft, boys metal and woodwork, that was junior school
The curriculum may have changed but children haven’t, in the best of homes children skip teeth cleaning if they can avoid it they will. It’s not about neglect health has a component in the best of school education

It also means that should he lose his seat (possible as even the big Norfolk majorities will be under threat) he's already active in a marketplace he'll be looking to stay in I assume.

It's worth mentioning that when I was in school, I reckon we had a lesson on brushing teeth once. On the other hand, I got a lesson on brushing my teeth every six months from the actual dentist. And that's the issue here. Treating schools as the cheap, easy option. There's nothing wrong with having health lessons in school, but only if you're also properly funding dental care for kids.

It doesn't need a dentist with five years' training to teach how to brush teeth. The cheap, easy option seems OK. But it's not really what a teacher trains for either.

Anyway, never mind kids - it used to be "up and down, up and down, till they're nice and sparkly", now it's "down from the upper gum, up from the lower gum", or "just let the rotating brush head do the work".
 
Another minister being interviewed using the labour party would take us back to square one and no interviewer challenging him on what that actually means , they wont have an answer as it just a slogan but why arent they asked

Sunak on this morning today , bet he says the same thing multiple times
