True, but when the redundancy notice is served and the mortgage, the credit card, the car finance and the personal loan payments, which funded “the holiday of a lifetime “ to Disney Land, are defaulted upon, someone is going to be saddled with the bill. That’s not going to be shaven headed, fat...

That’s actually not a bad solution. Compared to the age of the planet, the amount of time that humans have occupied it is an insignificantly small blip. When we are gone, perhaps things will return to normal and the blip in time when humans were here will just be a freak event.

All of the pollution/ global warming conversation is totally pointless unless we tackle population. It’s people who pollute and cause all the other things. The more people we have, the more damage we cause. Until action is taken on population, I’m not interested in any “green” measures. It’s...

She’s lucky that they only told her to FO. She deserved to be physically removed by the collar with a size 12 boot up her arse. The EU owe us nothing. It is the U.K. who wants to withdraw from the commitment.

I’ve just been listening to Dr Shiekhammerheadrancidbullshinefuckface on LBC. This clown has been instrumental in the construction of the definition of Islamophobia. No exaggeration, the man is incapable of speech. FFS. Much more of this and it could swing me back towards Farage.

Yes, I imagine that if they say no to a particular day, the threat of never being asked to work again is ever present. I suppose it’s like being put on permanent stand-by, but without the stand-by pay or protections. How did we regress to a situation like that?

Something upon which we can agree.

A zero hours contract works well for me because I don’t need the money or the job. I enjoy the work and like the flexibility to choose when I work. I have no need to apply for leave, or a particular day off. I just say that I’m unavailable. I realise that my situation is a minority situation...

No it isn’t, that’s why we have things like contracts. These set out and agree the expectations of both sides. Business and industry would not function without expectations.

It is looking like May’s options are narrowing down to, referendum two, or more egg on face when the vote on her rubbish deal is defeated for a fourth time. Does she now hold the title of the worst and most damaging Prime Minister the country has ever seen? I think she achieved both in the...

The EU has many faults, but one of them is not a disregard for the employment rights of working people. As with the unions, the British media has been very successful in turning people against these bodies which protect their working conditions. People should ask themselves why this happens...

Your outlook is rather immature. If a person contributes towards the growth of a company and adds value to it, why is it so wrong to expect loyalty from the company in return during times of illness or family crisis?

Will the increase in the minimum wage be funded from NI contributions or will it come from tax?

That sounds reasonable. You just know where the money to fund this will come from though. Not those with over one thousand million pounds in the bank, not those with nothing in the bank. Yep, those in the middle on PAYE. Pi$$ easy targets to rinse the cash out of. Nothing changes.

No I don’t, it’s a hobby job. You are right though, it’s a big step backwards towards the days of the tyrannical mill owners and disregards everything unions fought for. What is sad is how easily unions are vilified, and how readily the very people who need a strong union turn against them...

I like zero hours contracts , I’m on one at the moment. It means that I have FA loyalty to my employer, and my employer has FA loyalty towards me. It the most unambiguous and straightforward contract I’ve ever had. At last, something which formalises the situation which has existed between...

How are we doing compared to the rest of the EU? Are we paying more, or are we paying less to people in these age groups?

I’m hearing that the new emergency service radio system is going to cost over three thousand million pounds more than originally estimated. What items had been overlooked which cost over three thousand million pounds? What level of incompetence do you need to get a cost estimate wrong by over...

That all he’s ever had, emotive shallow sound bites which appeal to some people. If you try to find any substance or planning associated with his statements, you will fail. This is precisely why he vanished immediately after the referendum. He was full of, take back control, return sovereignty...
