Also, Ireland have free movement of workers with the EU, and common trading arrangements. Just imagine if we had had something similar.............

There is a video from a couple of days ago with Mick Lynch in front of the Commons Transportation Committee. When challenged by a Tory MP over the increase in funding given to the rail operating companies Lynch replied that that did not mean that money went into the industry - a lot went into dividends for the hedge funds investing in the companies and bonuses for senior managers. He also said that the Government is controlling the rail companies and their actions during the current dispute; any message from one of the 3 unions to an operating company has to go to the DFT, and the DFT then tells the company what the response has to be.

Rail workers are private sector, although the industry is effectively managed by the DFT.

The rail Minister has admitted to a Commons Committee that the cost to the country of the rail strikes is greater than if the pay demands had been settled on day one.

You will if he is the difference between 17th and relegation.

Might be a good idea to avoid some of the other threads on here 😉

Is the reason he is 'not wanted at Villa' fitness related ?

If you don't mind, I have added his other good points.

That will hardly register in paying off the increased national debt accrued due to his Trussonomics budget.

it is not "results based nonsense", I have watched every game, other than Liverpool, that NJ has managed.

Up to kick off against Palace what we had produced under NJ was garbage, and getting worse. Criticism at that point was entirely justified. This week has hopefully shown that we have changed direction and the manager and players are starting to understand each other. We must keep the momentum going - Villa are nothing special but Saints have always had the capability to regress disastrously.

Anna Soubry was excellent on the panel.

What the revocation Bill does is give Ministers the ability to make arbitrary decisions on the retention or removal of legislation covering such areas as animal welfare, food standards and workers rights, without the oversight of Parliament. Hardly "good news".

No matter how you try to polish the Brexit turd it remains a bigger pile of shit than the one the Triceratops deposited in Jurassic Park.

I wonder how many wish they had stayed in the Gulag.

So W.C. and Gracie can longer be mentioned ? Rather plays havoc with Churchill's "Never in the ----- of human conflict" speech in history courses. What happens if there is a Chicago sports team supporter among the students wanting to talk about their home stadium ?

Whelk quoted your post when asking the question.

If Chris Kamara looks at himself in the back of a spoon, does he look normal ?
