Where these dates come from

All of them come from the ONLYWAY.NEWS calendar, the same one behind Calendar: holidays and deadlines. Bank holidays follow the official GOV.UK list and deadlines follow HMRC and Companies House rules. City events appear only when they have an official source, such as the Mayor of London; concert and exhibition listings are left to the weekend guides. The article is assembled automatically and contains nothing beyond the calendar.
