    @auschwitzmuseum Genocide is being committed right now. Palestinians are being murdered by the terrorist organisation known as Israel. Isn&#39;t the point of not letting people forget to prevent it happening again; in which case Holocaust memorials have completely failed.

    @ruari@velocipederider.com I moved over to Vivaldi from Chrome a few weeks ago. Chrome was seriously pissing me off; Vivaldi is a joy to use in comparison.

    @Wicket_weir@mastodon.online This was my technique with lacrosse... except I didn&#39;t shout a lot and draw attention to myself.

    @ChrisMayLA6@zirk.us This rentcharge thing is something I&#39;ve not come across before but, from the links I gave earlier, is not related to renting a property in the way we normally understand it. Also, it seems to be irrelevant as, according to the legislation, no new rentcharges can be created since 1977. A leasehold property is where you purchase the property for a specific number of years and pay ground rent, i.e. you acquire a chargeable interest in the property. This is not the same as...

    @ChrisMayLA6@zirk.us SDLTM00280 gives definition of chargeable interest. Meaning of rentcharge is at https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/1977/30/section/1 and explanation https://beestonshenton.co.uk/rentcharge-1977-rentcharge-act-explained/

    @ChrisMayLA6@zirk.us That whole section is about &quot;leases&quot; but suddenly throws in the term &quot;shorthold tenancies&quot; without clarification. SDLTM00260 is very clear that the tax is chargeable on the acquisition of a chargeable interest. A person renting a property under a simple tenancy agreement does not acquire any sort of chargeable interest in that property.
