A few weeks ago I wrote to the Chancellor asking her to intervene as O2'd hiked its price hike; increasing prices by more than it told people when they signed up – a mockery of Ofcom's rules & hugely inflationary.

Today she sent me her letters to Ofcom & industry about it...

Im being told I crashed @Ofcom's website last night by suggesting people try its Map My Mobile tool, which shows which network has the strongest signal in & out of your home. Its back up and running here... ofcom.org.uk/mobile-cover...

(and do feed in to it if you disagree with its map)

The difference between Taxable income & Taxed income...

It's taxable if it counts towards the amount you earn for tax purposes. It's taxed if you actually must pay tax on.

Eg. most people can earn £12,570/yr before paying tax, so income under that is taxable but not taxed
