babajeje123: Please how difficult is the DLVA theory test? Must one go through all the modules in the app? You're not going through the modules to only pass the test, but to get a good knowledge of the highway code. I'd advise you cover everything and then practice the hazard perception tests a lot before you take the test. |

She reported being invited into a vehicle by a man who then drove her to different locations across London.
I'd like to believe the Met police did a thorough investigation into the matter, though I'm a bit baffled as regards the bolded. Who just enters a random strangers car and goes for a joy ride around London? Even the eye witnesses questioned, what did they see? Did they see both of them leaving together (which doesn't prove rape) or they actually saw the alleged rapist, raping the alleged victim ( why didn't they call the police)? Just saying, after all the Mets fumbling in the last couple of months, they shouldn't use the case of a black man to try and reclaim their long lost glory. |

For those considering buying used cars, if the dealer or seller offers you any type of insurance from Handler Protect, RUN OH. RUN FOR YOUR LIFE. Handler Protect is a shady company that helps dealers make their offers seem great on paper, but Handler Protect will give you the runaround and not cover any reasonable repair. |

TheGuyFromHR: Lol, the Russian adventure in Ukraine has concentrated minds. I don't see the government banning those anymore until renewables are fully able to make up a reasonable proportion of the UK's energy mix and that is far in the future, at least with current technology.
The alternative, heat pumps, are damn expensive, even with the subsidy. Heat pumps are not even an option in my opinion. If you see a chimney spewing thick soot in west London, know that I have chop my wood and resorted to self-help  |

TheGuyFromHR: I would avoid an all-electric house now if I were you. Prices are going up fast and you could find yourself paying far more by October after the price cap is next reset. Isn't that only postponing the inevitable? Isn't the government is putting a ban on gas boilers in a few years? £310 for a 3bed flat is steep though. Does it have a good EPC rating? Also, is his DD increase in anticipation of the price cap increase, or is his bill already in arrears and the increase is in a bid to settle the arrears? |

Xanderlex: This is similar to mine. All Electric, same EPC rating. Spend between £70-75 per month. Prepaid meter What's the size of the property, £75/month sounds cheap if it's all electric. I'm seeing some people quoting bills of £250+/month for an average sized house. |

SakJiggy: Hello guys. Please I need some advice. I’m a civil engineering graduate with 1-2years experience in Nigeria. I recently got an admission to University of Salford to study Masters in project management in construction.
So I have a couple of questions. 1. Is project management MSc really useful for post graduate work search? 2. If it is not useful, what alternative MSc degrees can you look into? 3. How is the job market like for Graduate civil engineers in Uk, especially Manchester, how easy is it to get a job that aligns with my discipline? 4. What other tips would I need to succeed in uk as an engineering graduate and surviving in Salford.
Thank you everyone as I anticipate your response. Why not go ahead into an MSc. in Civil engineering. All these generic project management degrees are not worth the paper they're issued on without accompanying work experience in the sector you're applying to and in the UK. |

Politics › Re: Reps Clash Over Warrant Of Arrest On Emefiele by kode12: 9:13pm On Feb 23, 2022 |
FreeStuffsNG: On this policy, I stand with Mr Emefiele.
That policy was a masterstroke! No amount of lobbying by those benefitting from the rotten, corrupt, chaotic and opaque system that has made it impossible for us to have a near accurate value of exports and imports in Nigeria for decades, will succeed.
https://www.thisdaylive.com/index.php/2022/01/24/with-new-portal-cbn-moves-to-halt-over-invoicing-by-importers/
This policy is another revolution policy like the Treasury Single Account (TSA). Every patriotic Nigerian should please support it.
All the enemies of Nigeria will lose las las . They always lose.God bless Nigeria forever. Would this policy really translate to anything tangible for the common man? The TSA you referenced, has it really translated to anything meaningful asides a revenue generation scheme for cronies of the government ? TSA was meant to consolidate funds, but most MDAs simply created other charges that went into different non-TSA designated accounts, causing unnecessary hardship and barriers to business. Assuming the policy is indeed fit for purpose, shouldn’t there be some sort of wider review and triaging of the policy? A policy that comes into public domain and then goes live only 10days after doesn’t exactly instill a lot of confidence. |

Only the parties concerned know the full truth. Yeah, whatever the case, when you’re aware of your apparent disadvantage in a battle, you don’t jeopardise yourself further by making yourself vulnerable to further attacks. If she was advised by her lawyers not to show up, she’d better jump back in the legal market for a new representative. |
