No. The point is you MAKE it one.

Yes. Very common method of payment with the 'company'.

I agree on the national funding bit. It is a minefield because if you have the two services politically they'll be played off against each other - care saying people need to be in hospital and vice versa to change who has them on their budget. But the two are individually such massive sectors...

Machismo. Or his God-complex makes him think he's invulnerable.

But at no point did the science say herd mentality was a good idea - that was an ideological idea that was tried to be pushed on them to agree to. We lost a lot of time for that. Neither have they ever said PPE was useless. Again that was political spin because we'd not stockpiled enough even...

What this has shown is that the way we structure economics it cannot adapt to change. This makes it a very vulnerable system and we need to take a massive look at this. The first step is to get rid of the utter obsession with economic growth.

We've got a parliament that couldn't sort out a Withdrawal Agreement for three years and they expect teachers to completely revolutionise their method of teaching (often without having the technical knowledge of how to do it) in a few days. Whilst also continuing to have to do the traditional...

Johnson returns and first thing he announces is we're past the peak..... Who'd av thunk it?

Is MR tied down to a decent contract? To my knowledge it was a rolling contract.

I agree it should be under the same sort of control as the NHS, but it's so big in itself and only going to grow it should have a degree of separation (but obviously with very close working relationships). We could have the NCS (National Care Service)

We could have hewn an entire stadium out of a mountainside in that time.

It is very 1984 in that respect. Maybe we should start a left wing nutjob conspiracy that it was created in a US lab and transported to China for release so he could use it to take attention off him during election year.

Complains daily about media using 'sources' and not revealing them. He not only doesn't reveal the source he doesn't even release the info. But he doesn't need to because the gurning idiots that support him will just take him at his word even though his word has repeatedly been shown to be...

With the value of hindsight it would've been much cheaper to renovate HR. But that wasn't really the point. Being in that location it massively limited other potential income streams and future expansion. In the end expansion wasn't needed and really the money is from TV now rather than bums on...

IR35 has been going on for the best part of 20 years, trying to enforce workers rights by saying if more than x% of your income is from a single source you're an employee, not a contractor. Also if the contract you signed prohibits you from working elsewhere in the same industry.

Then they'd just turn up outside their home ground to feel 'part of it'

But would it just be 22 players? Managers, coaches, kit, officials, assuming some techies to stream it etc. Probably well over 100 people there already. Not to mention the numpties who'd turn up outside.

Although I agree with the sentiment on getting away from the news etc you did say you can only do so much, and most of that is in terms of common sense. So you have to ask "is it common sense to have groups of people in extremely close contact just for entertainment when there's a potentially...

Provided you don't get idiots congregating near the stadium when it's being played. But that could be sorted with a warning "if fans turn up outside grounds the match will be postponed". But of course that could lead teams that don't want games to be played to do so to deliberately get them...

The point was was it morally right. Not was it legal. Not was it sensible. Was it MORALLY RIGHT.
