Airbnb can be positive for the community | Letters

Readers respond to an article by Arwa Mahdawi on some self-catering hosts calling for a strike in response to new guidelines Regarding Arwa Mahdawi’s article (Airbnb feels like a soulless rip-off – and its hosts are revolting, 28 October), I’m really sick of being scapegoated. I’m aware that Airbnb has negatively impacted some urban communities, but without the income from the two self-catering cottages on my family croft, I couldn’t afford to live in Wester Ross, raise my kids here, spend my money in the village stores and volunteer as a community councillor for the last 25 years. There may b

After the US midterms, what will a lame duck Trump mean for the global economy?

Republicans’ crushing setback will play out in stock markets, inflation, interest rates and economic growth Donald Trump’s loss of control of the House of Representatives and the Senate has put the world economy on notice for an unpredictable final two years of his presidential term. After Democrats swept aside his Republican party in the midterm elections, analysts said the prospect of a highly erratic lame-duck president would have significant implications for financial markets, growth, inflation, government borrowing costs and living standards.

Don’t let Poundland owner maximise its return at our expense, suppliers say

British companies that supply US-owned budget retailer face millions of pounds’ worth of losses if it collapses Suppliers facing millions of pounds in losses if Poundland collapses have said the chain’s US owner should not be permitted to maximise its return at their expense, as ministers attempt to intervene in the situation.

‘It’s just vape shops, nail shops, charity shops’: can anything save the British high street?

It’s 20 years since Jo and Richard Hill bought anything in Rotherham town centre. Why have they and so many locals abandoned it for the nearest retail park – and what would it take to change their minds? On 22 May 1987, retail history was made in Rotherham. Parkgate Retail World, thought at the time to be the UK’s largest open-air shopping centre, welcomed shoppers for some one-stop retail therapy. The official opening was marked in swanky fashion with a “breathtaking” display from Marlboro’s red-and-white branded biplanes, followed by a “spectacular” laser show, the first in South Yorkshire.

The worst two words in the dead of night? ‘Motorway closed’ | Adrian Chiles

You are shunted into side streets, crawling along, united with your fellow drivers in wordless despair. Last week, at 2am, my spirit broke The worst three words in the transport lexicon are often said to be “rail”, “replacement” and “bus”, in that order. But there’s worse. “Motorway closed” is worse. At least with rail replacement buses you get fair warning, on booking apps and whatnot. You can resolve to embrace the pain or, more likely, abandon the journey. Motorway closures, in the dead of night, invariably come as a nasty surprise. Waze, Google Maps, Apple Maps, etc can reliably get you fr

Se espera un aumento de las tasas de interés en el Reino Unido después de que se acelere la actividad del sector de servicios

El índice de gestores de compras alcanza su nivel más alto en ocho meses, impulsado por el gasto en IA a medida que las empresas recuperan el impulso perdido por la guerra con Irán. Se espera que el Banco de Inglaterra suba las tasas de interés el jueves después de que una encuesta seguida de cerca mostrara que el crecimiento en todo el sector de servicios del Reino Unido saltó el mes pasado a un máximo de ocho meses, impulsado por el gasto en inteligencia artificial. La encuesta de S&P Global sobre el sector servicios en octubre mostró que las empresas recuperaron gran parte del impulso que perdieron después del inicio de la guerra de Irán, pero también sintieron el impacto de un nuevo impulso de la inflación de los precios de los insumos, que se aceleró a un nivel de cinco meses.

M&S boss bemoans last week’s budget as ‘whole lot of nothing’

Stuart Machin hits out at Labour but welcomes expected UK-EU food deal as retailer reveals half-year results The chief executive of Marks & Spencer has called John Healey’s first budget as chancellor a “whole lot of nothing” and bemoaned an “onslaught of taxation and regulation” from the Labour government despite welcoming an expected deal on EU border checks. Stuart Machin said he was disappointed at last week’s budget statement, adding that it “didn’t really address the issues we need to focus on growth”. He said the chancellor’s “real terms” freeze on business rates, for example, would lead

BMW warns on profits as it counts cost of plan for 8,000 job cuts

German carmaker slashes profit margin to between -0.5% and 0.5% this year in face of competition from China The German carmaker BMW has issued its second profit warning in a year, blaming the costs of a restructuring programme including significant job losses in the face of continuing competition from China. The company is the latest to issue a profit downgrade in the German car sector, after Mercedes-Benz last week cut its profit outlook. Western automakers have struggled to keep pace with lower-cost Chinese rivals, which has led to reduced sales in China and a rise in Chinese exports to Euro

Britain’s housing market unlikely to recover until 2028, says Savills

House prices forecast to fall by 1.5% next year as Middle East war keeps mortgage rates higher for longer Britain’s sluggish housing market is not expected to recover until 2028 as higher mortgage rates linked to the war in the Middle East deter buyers and weigh on prices. The property firm Savills said average house prices were expected to drift lower during the rest of 2026 and fall by 1.5% in 2027, as the prolonged conflict undermines buyers’ confidence and keeps mortgage rates higher for longer.
