Gee SCREAMER !! Posted November 11, 2019 Share Posted November 11, 2019 6 hours ago, SchtivePesley said: so you have a dangerous job, and one with a skills shortage. And your employer is the government. You're in the same boat as Nurses, Teachers, Police... But you're arguing against the opposition, who believe in a fairer society where at the bottom of the ladder people are paid enough to live on and at all the rungs above that, people are actually paid what they are worth, rather than as little as their employer can possibly get away with? What's that about? Having worked as a civil servant in the past, I promise you all parties treat staff on there payroll as footballs . The current government have got rid of thousands of civil servant jobs and centralised work in a small number of cities. This only happened because the last Labour government took the union to court to change the law and reduce redundancy payments when there plans were deemed illegal thereby making it affordable. They also started the closing offices as far back as 2007. The largest increase in pay I ever had as a civil servant was 1%. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well everyone is entitled to remember the fallen whenever they want to. On Sunday I remembered the ex soldier who I was working with a few years ago his harrowing tale of being courtmarshalled after refusing an order to shoot an innocent Afghan lad in the back was awful and clearly had affected him. Hopefully he got the help he deserved, I wished I had never asked what it was like on duty in Afghanistan learnt my lesson though all the other ex-servicemen I have worked with not discuss their time on duty unless they raised the issue.

Still time, anything could happen. Labour are up against it, tories are in the driving seat. Hopefully people will remember the lies from Boris and his mates and come to their senses.

1of4 Posted November 11, 2019 Share Posted November 11, 2019 While we're on the subject of Remembrance Sunday. Found it odd that the press didn't deride a certain political party leader for his slovenly appearance, when he was laying a wreath at the Cenotaph. The idiot even managed to place the wreath the wrong way round. So why did we not see column inch after column inch along with incriminating photos in all of todays papers? Could the answer be that the idiot was Boris Johnson and not Jeremy Corbyn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unlike Johnson who was constantly looking around and appearing to look bored by the whole event. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gritstone Ram Posted November 12, 2019 Share Posted November 12, 2019 I watched an interview with Emily Thornberry on GMTV on Monday morning and when questioned about Labours Brexit policy she more or less said they will negotiate a deal which sounded like remain without any voting rights. Then put this deal to the public for a vote and let the people decide. What choice does that give people who want to leave the EU? I know no deal has been negotiated but do they expect people to think they will come up with some miracle deal “the cake and eat it” deal??? I think they’d be better getting off the fence and fighting one or the other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
