[UK home sales reached a record high in July, up 33% year-on-year]


According to data from HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC), UK home sales reached a record high of 110,970 in July, up 7% from June and up 33% year-on-year, the highest level this year. HMRC pointed out that monthly sales have remained at about 100,000 units this year, reflecting that demand for housing remains strong. Propertymark chief executive Nathan Emerson said the data showed that the UK property market continued to hold steady, with transaction volumes rising well above pre-pandemic levels. Despite the rising cost of living for UK residents, property demand remains strong and there is not enough unmet market, with new buyers now seven times as many as new listings.

The National Building Society chief executive Julie-Ann Haines also pointed out that 1.8 million homeowners will have fixed-rate mortgages due next year, when the pressure on lenders such as banks will increase. While there may be a slowdown in the UK property market, there is absolutely no sign of a slump.

[Fierce competition of 35 tenants competing for one rented property in Central London on average, despite rents soared by 20% in the first quarter]


According to British property website Zoopla, rents in central London rose by nearly 20% in the first quarter of this year and 10% in outer London. Some British resident groups have reported that the shortage of housing supply in London has led to fierce competition for rental housing. Some tenants experienced rents being increased by 40% when they renewed their leases, and some were even asked to pay one year's rent in one go.

In May 2020, an average of about 5 tenants competed for one rented property. But in May this year, it became 35 people competing for one. The reasons include - the government introduced additional stamp duty in 2016, coupled with the sharp rise in property prices during the pandemic, making many landlords who originally lend their properties turned out selling their properties. Besides, there has always been a lack of new housing supply. Therefore, the supply of rental properties in London fell to the lowest in five years, and the demand far exceeds the supply.

[Pay attention on the Energy Performance if you are going to purchase property in the UK]


Energy Performance Certificates tell you how energy efficient a building is and give it a rating from A (most efficient) to G (least efficient), D is the average rating of property in the UK. In order to further enact environmental protection and energy conservation, the British government requires all rental houses to have an energy efficiency rating (EPC) of C or above by 2028.

Besides rental market, A study by Rightmove found that EPC will directly affect the price of houses for sale. For example, the asking price for homes with high ratings can be up to 16% premium and seek a buyer earlier.

[Drought conditions in Britain prompt water restrictions for the designated area Thames Water hosepipe ban to start on 24 August]


Thames Water, large private utility company responsible for the public water supply and waste water treatment, are bringing in a hosepipe ban (also known as a Temporary Use Ban) for all customers they supply water from 24 August. The company said “After the driest July on record, and below average rainfall in 10 of the last 12 months, water levels in our rivers and reservoirs are much lower than usual.”, With low rainfall forecast for the coming months, they decided to take the next step in the drought plan. The ban applies to hosepipes, and anything attached to them, like sprinklers and jet washers, such as watering garden, filling swimming pool, etc.

[Optimism vs pessimistic 💭 The two ways of viewing latest UK jobs figures]


Nadhim Zahawi said the unemployment rate of 3.8% has rarely been lower in decades and the chancellor is right about that. Besides, the economy continued to create net new jobs in the three months to June, with employment rising by 160,000 over the quarter. With job vacancies at near-record levels, the labour market looks in good shape to withstand the slightly economy contracted in the three months to June. Ruth Gregory, UK economist at Capital Economics, says “by any metric the labour market is still very tight”.

Economist see things in a pessimistic perspective would point to the slower pace of employment growth, evidence that job vacancies are past their peak and the record gap between regular pay (unadjusted for bonuses) and the rate of inflation. Samuel Tombs, the chief UK economist at Pantheon Macro, says demand for labour is stabilising just as the supply of workers is picking up. The increase in the size of the workforce is being driven by immigration, he notes, with the number of non-UK nationals either working or looking for a job rising by almost 250,000 in the past year. The domestic labour force is also likely to increase as people try to maintain their living standards at a time when cost of living pressures are intensifying.

Ultimately, the labour market data shows where the economy has been but doesn’t necessarily show where it is heading. The Bank of England sees a protracted

[Trades Union Congress urged Government to classify Covid as an occupational disease]


Ministers should urgently classify Covid-19 as an occupational disease to prompt employers to reduce the risk of exposure and help workers access key benefits, the TUC has said, the UK is out of step with other major countries. Research by the International Labour Organization has shown that many other nations, including Australia, Canada and China, already recognise Covid as an occupational disease.

The umbrella body for British trade unions is urging the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) to use its powers to “prescribe” Covid. If the DWP agrees, Covid would be treated the same as, for example, a disease related to workplace exposure such as asbestos-related cancer, which is a known risk for people who have worked in construction or firefighting.

[Birmingham expects surge of tourism following success of Commonwealth Games]


The 11-day sports event comes to a close, the event has been heralded as a roaring success for the Midlands city, with more than 1.5m tickets sold – making it on track to be one of the most successful Commonwealth Games in history. Birmingham is expecting a surge of tourists over the summer as the city’s reputation receives a boost from the Commonwealth Games.

We were forecasting about 85% hotel occupancy, but talking to some hotel managers it’s nearer 95% so we’re pretty much full.” said Neil Rami, chief executive of the West Midlands Growth Company. Off the back of the games, Airbnb has announced a £500,000 legacy pledge for the region which will see it do more to showcase its cultural highlights, while the Business and Tourism Programme designed to leverage the economic benefits of the games has secured 10 further conferences and sporting events. Leaders are determined to use the momentum from the games to put the city forward for other major events and permanently shape the city’s identity across the country. The sports minister Nigel Huddlestone suggested it could even be a future Olympic host city.

[Nearly 800,000 UK households cancelled their subscriptions to Netflix or Prime Video between April and June, 💰with rise in the cost of living seen as ‘catalyst’]

The cost of living crisis forces streaming fans to cut back on the number of services they pay for to just a few favourites. The number of homes with access to at least one subscription video-on-demand (SVOD) service fell from 19.57m in the first quarter to 19.19m at the end of the second, a net decrease of 382,000, according to the latest survey by the Broadcast Audience Research Board (Barb).

Between April and June 206,000 households dropped their subscription to Netflix, taking the streamer’s UK customer base down from 17.29m to 17.08m. Amazon’s Prime Video, which is bringing in its own price rise for British customers from September, reported the steepest decrease among the most popular SVOD services in the UK.

[Coming from London to Birmingham: Living Birmingham for a better quality of life at just a third of the price]
According to research by Hamptons, the number of Londoners making a dash for the Midlands has increased more than sixfold in the past decade. With HS2 on the horizon and a massive regeneration of the city centre, plus the Birmingham 2022 Commonwealth Games, the city is primed to flip from an under-the-radar relocation option to the next hotspot for London leavers.

Birmingham’s sheer affordability is a key reason why Britain’s second city has been gaining traction with an increasing numbers of buyers forced out of the capital. Average prices in Birmingham are almost a third of those in London, according to exclusive research from Savills — just over £250,000, compared with almost £700,000. People coming from London to Birmingham, to seek better-value homes and a more relaxed lifestyle without forfeiting urban culture.

[Supermarket M&S removes best-before dates on fruit and vegetables🛒To help cut down on the amount of food UK households throw out every year]


Supermarkets in the UK are beginning to end use-by dates to cut down on food waste. After Morrisons has scrapped the dates on its own-brand milk, Marks & Spencer is removing best before dates from more than 300 fruit and veg - around 85% of all its produce, to try to cut food waste. This includes foods like apples, potatoes and broccoli, which are often thrown away before they get eaten.

UK households throw away around 6.6million tonnes of food a year, according to research. That is the same as 550,000 double-decker buses, or 440,000 elephants!
