That was my original point. The artist or promoter is able to set the face value price, but Ticketmaster adds fees on top.

Do you have a source for this? The Ticketmaster FAQ states the artist or promoter sets the base price.

The article states that the government will regulate the fees that can be charged on top of the face value.

Under the plan, which could form part of next year’s King’s speech, anyone selling a ticket will not be allowed to charge more than they paid for it. Resale platforms will be allowed to charge fees on top of that price. These extras will also be limited, to ensure that they can’t be inflated artificially to offset profits forfeited owing to the legislation. The scale of the ceiling on service fees is yet to be determined.

Isn’t it the artist or promoter who set the face value price?

That’s depends, what’s your primary mode of travel?

I can’t find any mention of them using neurodiversity as a defence in the article, nor the press release by Just Up Oil.

I found this statement by the judge to be very problematic.

The judge said Kowalski’s actions were “affected by your neurodivergence”, and also noted Macdonald’s autism diagnosis.

It also depends on whether you take the word “death” literally, or simply meaning the end of. For example, when people say “death to America!” they aren’t necessarily advocating for the death of every single American, but rather the collapse of the United States in its current form.

I’m finding it quite depressing reading through the comments on the BBC website. Hopefully, they don’t reflect the UK population as a whole.

I agree, though alas currently wage theft is not a crime in the UK.

Given the number of upvotes and comments on this post, I think there’s definitely an appetite for it if you wanted to create it on Lemmy World. If you do create one, I’m happy to try to post things on it, and get the ball rolling.

Australia also has a problem with monopolies, as Coles and Woolworths dominate much of the market.

We definitely want to get more people cycling. Drivers who park at the station are also affected, as the article states:

Car thefts will not be investigated if the vehicle has been left for more than two hours
