  1. Whoever decided on a £90K settlement disagrees with you.
  2. It seems it was clear to the tribunal who dealt with her appeal.
  3. Some are even embarrassed by the arguments they make in posts on anonymous forums, or at least they ought to be.
  4. “But look what they are doing with their children: giving them puberty blocking medications as an LBGTQ lifestyle choice.” Who is doing this? Do you have evidence that it’s gay couples doing this? Do you have evidence of how many people are doing this? Do you realize there are gay parents raising children all over the nation, many in heterosexual marriages?
  5. She was asked to stand up and turn around. Do you have eyes in the back of your head? What followed the incident was a string of failings by her employer’s HR department. That X-rated things happened in the past is no excuse for abuse to continue. Hat’s off to the woman in this incident for challenging abuse and management failures.
  6. Pre-loan mortgage illustrations include an explanation of the impact of interest increases on loan repayments. It’s been a requirement for a long while already.
  7. The power of collective bargaining.
  8. Freedom of speech,,, Yeh .. OK: Unless of course you are a journalist reporting on Musk. https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2022/dec/15/twitter-suspends-accounts-journalists-musk
  9. Victim blaming already. She was assaulted in the workplace by her line manager. Her manager’s behavior has been the stuff of ethics training in workplaces for at least a couple of decades, it’s inexcusable. The response of the company was also appallingly poor, I’m surprised the settlement was only £90K. Well done to the woman for challenging this.
  10. I think it’s a response to being banished in the election by that other superhero ’Dark Brandon’.
  11. I spat my coffee when I read this in this morning’s news. Come on Trumpists, wake up already. You bought an Orange and got a Lemon.
  12. Nevermind the 1st Amendment, he’s stepping into dictating business management to businesses, has he failed to grasp who it is that funds the GOP?!
  13. It’s a minor inconvenience. In all other respects your passport renewal will be dealt with efficiently and swiftly. Ask British expats how the private business system they have to use works out for them. The US Passport renewal process is a breeze.
  14. No it won’t. But then that’s not the purpose of his announced intention to make reforms. It’s a distraction from the other more pressing problems the UK is facing. Give it three months, the ‘policy’ will collide with reality and the Government will be blaming others for their own failings…. again.
  15. So enlighten us. Where are you getting your propaganda free news on the progress of this war?
  16. If the US Government believed til til to be a threat to the data on US Government devices then they must also believe it a threat to the data on private devices and those owned/used by businesses. So I agree, ban it across the whole US.
  17. It looks like the squaddies are going to be spread thin on the ground. Baggage handlers are next up for strike action: https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2022/dec/15/heathrow-strike-ground-handlers-pay-talks-fail
  18. Good for you. You got a pay rise you are happy with. Others might not be happy with a similar pay rise and are perfectly entitled to make that judgement by themselves. Your gross pejorative generalizations are once again noted.
  19. As I said in one of the other threads on the subject of industrial action. I’m all in favour of working people joining unions to increase the power they have when negotiating for better pay and conditions. I favour every working person being allowed to pursue the best pay and conditions they can achieve.
  20. You accepted a real terms pay cut. If you are happy with that, good for you.
  21. I’ll remind you once again, since you introduced it into the discussion, your pension is being raised by 10%. I don’t hear you objecting.
  22. The offer is a real terms pay cut. Inflation is north of 10%. https://www.independent.co.uk/travel/news-and-advice/network-rail-boss-salary-strike-pay-b2147576.html
  23. I’m not at all sure how I could do such a thing since: A. My comments are not spurious. B. You’ve quoted a response I made to another member. I suggest you focus less on me and more on the topic of discussion.
