public

In public relations and communication science, publics are groups of individual people, and the public (a.k.a. the general public) is the totality of such groupings. This is a different concept to the sociological concept of the Öffentlichkeit or public sphere. The concept of a public has also been defined in political science, psychology, marketing, and advertising. In public relations and communication science, it is one of the more ambiguous concepts in the field. Although it has definitions in the theory of the field that have been formulated from the early 20th century onwards, and suffered more recent years from being blurred, as a result of conflation of the idea of a public with the notions of audience, market segment, community, constituency, and stakeholder.

    Few Questions

    1. I heard that from next year you have to either possess or be working towards your NVQ 2 to be carrying out any plumbing work. Is this true? I work for a plumber, mostly fetch and carry but increasingly more hands-on work. Would this be therefore illegal unless I get the NVQ started? (which...
