In the UK you invariably rent through an agent who has access to credit reporting, the cost of which is passed on to both you and the landlord. If you're self employed or a company director then there are a few other things you have t

Yes, there are other parties, but, aside from tactical voting, most people accept you're going to get a labour or conservative government no matter what. A recent exception may have have been the Con/Lib coalition but it was a uni

Didn't down vote but, on the point of the electorate being responsible, you are correct. What many observers fail to realise however is that, in our two-party system, we are usually voting for the least worst candidate rather than the

Not only do your answer's need to be perfect in order to progress but you can also answer correctly without knowing why you are correct. Most people manage to speak their native language just fine but very few speak it anywhere near pe
