    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    I trained under Labour so maybe. Then they need to go again. Ridiculous to charge people to train in a shortage profession. And I thought I was hard done by missing the golden handcuffs period.

    We’ll see with Ciry centre south, but yeah. We’re talking about city centre living mostly.

    General election poll

    That’s what we’re talking about though IMO. There’s in theory a ton of low hanging fruit bringing our non-London economy to the level of an average OECD country excluding the capital. And that’s unlocked with house building (particularly in the south east and massing in the second cities)...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    There should be triggers where employers can terminate a contract if you hit x% of sick time (something high like 40-50%). I’ve known examples of people who are off for six months back for one off again, or who go sick very shortly after joining. Then PIP or similar should be taking over IMO as...

    But things like constructive dismissal, discrimination, etc should be in force day one. There’s still a right and wrong way of terminating employment no matter how long someone has been there. SSP is peanuts and should be backed by a doctors note, so not sure about that.

    Ryton looking great

    Still think a training ground at Warwick Uni would make the most sense, does seem like Doug isn’t considering anything more than Ryton until promotion at least. Really rolling that turd in glitter though, fair play.

    Trump is my favourite comedian of the year already

    Genuine Q: if he stepped down now would that not leave him open to the 25th as he’s admitting he’s not capable? I don’t think it does as he’s a capable president clearly but not a capable candidate, but I can see the argument.

    Things that annoy you
