Especially with 40k vacancies 🤦‍♂️

Yeah, they’re going to have to pay more. Accept the previous pay review is out of date and put some thing better in the table. Even if it was like scotlands 7.5% You do wonder if they’re holding off in the worry that putting whatever on the table will set a precedent to others...

Yeah, it’s always been the issue for me. If as a government you said ‘we’re increasing spending but it will be going towards driving reform and improvements’ you negate the argument that it’s all about cuts. I think shmmeee made the point previously, whether we can get everyone to accept they...

Yeah, of course there are going to be good, talented people working in NHS management. From what I’ve read, seen and heard there’s also a lot of people who struggle to make decisions and don’t drive change. Which to be fair is like a lot of other organisations. Even basics like some patient...

So impressed all round. What a series albeit not the best Pakistan team. Suddenly a bit of strength in depth. If archer ever comes back as well !!!

This is spot on. It just appears a shambles at the moment and getting worse. I was reading another article recently that was again, rightly suggesting, it’s not that there’s too many managers, just that many at senior levels just aren’t very good. This then leads to consultants being brought in...

She knew how to celebrate !

Hed have been doing full kit wanker if they’d won

Yeah, not an argie fan but wanted them to win for him really. Carried the weight of the country on his shoulders. He had a great tournament as well.

Mental

Rees Moggs just a waste of space. Even if it was a one in ten chance of a cold snap, there’s still a one in ten chance to prepare for 🤷‍♂️ Also I’d have thought the pressure was immediate ie we’ve had the coldest period and it’s due to get a bit milder next week so struggling to see where the...

Just two thirds of a team then ?! 😊 Realistically I think I’d take a GK, although wouldnt mind giving Moore another go first and CB. Anything else would be a bonus unless players shipped out

I did mention that if inflation remains high members will obviously be disadvantaged as next year goes on. We don’t know what inflation will be next year though. The fact is it’s 9% increase on salary within three weeks, with 5% backdated, plus extra 1% for those on 25k or less plus massive...

I’d seen 9% (5% backdated) which was put to members Train strikes to continue as RMT workers reject 9 per cent pay rise offer from Network Rail

2022 is backdated to the start of the year though when inflation wasn’t 11% and they’ve said 2023 is 4% (which is in three weeks). I’ve assumed that’s from Jan but might be wrong. If so that is, it’s pretty much an immediate 9% rise. The issue will be if inflations high next year then as the...

I wasn’t celebrating and said it was only semi good news. If oil stays around same level things should improve which I see as a positive

I just don’t see that myself. The RMT rejected latest offer which I didn’t think was unreasonable (nor did unite or 37% of RMT members). A 5 per cent base pay rise backdated to January and another 4 per cent rise next year. Basically a 9% pay rise as we’re three weeks away from 2023. It also...

The last thing the government wants is this shitshow at the moment.

Bit of semi good news on top of the fusion stuff. Inflation finally appears to be coming down. Might not appear great as still high but good news if it’s finally peaked. With oil around $75 per barrel and pound now around $1.23 hopefully the petrol stations might finally stop taking the piss (we...

I think they were advised to reject it though. Didn’t 35-40% vote to accept it still ? Shmmeee is right, Lynch won’t give a shit about the Sun but he wasn’t himself yesterday. When he was talking about rebalancing of society (which is obviously a noble cause) on bbc after being asked a genuine...
