    Wasps merging with ACL

    Wasps have announced they are merging with ACL and in the process it seems Andy Gibb is getting the push. It makes sense as a cost cutting measure as you can share staff, although there's no reason you can't do that with two separate companies in the same group. Doesn't this create a situation...

    They already do with academies. Just because they are trusts and supposedly non-profit doesn't stop those at the top taking 7 figure salaries and / or charging management fees. Which of course then means there less money for running the school itself.

    General Election

    Might not take long. There was supposed to be a vote this afternoon on an amendment put forward by Labour that women from NI who come to the mainland for abortions should have the cost of the procedure covered as they are UK taxpayers. Of course this was opposed by the DUP and as part of their...

    General Election

    Only 30% of student debt is repaid and the Conservatives have previously sold student debt at 10% of its book value. One of the most accurate statements you've made on this thread :emoji_smiley:

    General Election

    Those that don't have a problem with the deal with the DUP would you also be fine if Labour had got the most votes and did a deal with Sinn Fein involving £2bn of taxpayers money?

    General Election

    But again on your logic every single thing in every parties manifesto or mentioned before an election is a bribe. That's clearly not the case. The deal with the DUP is very simple. They have been given £2bn, with it seems more to follow, solely on the basis that they vote in line with the...

    General Election

    The cheering was absolutely disgusting. Didn't take long after the praise being given after the terror attacks and Grenfell for the Tories to revert to type. Follows the news a few days ago that the children's ward at St John's Hospital in Livingston is to close for the summer as they can't get...

    How would it be expenditure. Were they going to hand over more money to the students who hadn't repaid their loans?

    What do you think of the Tories selling off the student debt book at a fraction of its value?

    Maxime Biamou

    To be fair Andy Turner is generally a decent read. Just gets dragged down by the state of the rest of the paper and blocked access to the club due to other people at the CT stirring things up.

    General Election

    On that basis every manifest by every political party is a bribe. The deal with the DUP was very different. It was a direct payment in return for votes. It also clearly breaches the Good Friday agreement, which potentially has very serious consequences. The £2bn, which it has already been...

    left wing agitation and John Mcdonnell

    Interesting, although not surprising, that when you dig into this story a bit it turns out the only thing that's been said against the Conservatives is one tweet from one school. Everything else is factual and if the Conservatives, as the serving government, are concerned that people having the...

    You've got schools looking at not opening 5 days a week as they can't afford it, schools asking for donations so they can buy the books needed and similar yet people act surprised when teachers express concern. Personally I think when teachers are telling you education is in a mess, doctors and...
