Don’t get the wrong idea, spam filters are great things, and we would be drowning in thousands of junk messages if we did not have them. The problem is that certain filters, particularly the free ones provided by providers like Gmail and Yahoo can sometimes come up with “false positives.” This is the equivalent of...

Instead, today’s Budget was all about putting money into projects and the regions. Sadly, there was no mention of the South West. Instead, the Midlands Engine, Northern Powerhouse, Ireland, Wales and Scotland all received notable funds. “What was abundantly clear is that this Budget was focussed on...
