Gemmill 44393 Posted September 23, 2019 Share Posted September 23, 2019 Don't worry if you're stuck abroad. Gordon Brittas tribute act Dominic Raab is on the case to make sure everyone gets home safely. What could possibly go wrong? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaddockLad 17079 Posted September 23, 2019 Share Posted September 23, 2019 32 hour working week & an end to the EU working time directive. Basically the latter makes the former irrelevant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ewerk 30266 Posted September 23, 2019 Share Posted September 23, 2019 This plan to abolish private schools is quickly falling apart under very light scrutiny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rayvin 5180 Posted September 23, 2019 Share Posted September 23, 2019 I don't even really see these as the main goals for the next Labour government, there's far more achievable things they can set their sights on without having to go for the super radical stuff. All this shit is going to do is scare the moderates. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree - I've always said the way to solve education and health in the UK is to abolish the private option as the powers that be would take 5 minutes to fix them if they had to use them but that would have to be done gradually. As you say it will frighten people who think of themselves as middle income (they aren't) and bow down to privilege. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All this shit is going to do is scare the moderates. It is. Have they costed this stuff again. I would fucking love to work 4 days a week but it's not happening, is it? I'd be happy just going back to my workload of a few years back tbh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ewerk 30266 Posted September 23, 2019 Share Posted September 23, 2019 Of course they haven’t costed it. I don’t think the plan is actually a four day week, it’s more to do with raising the minimum wage and giving workers more holidays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemmill 44393 Posted September 23, 2019 Share Posted September 23, 2019 Lads don't be fucking soft. If they say we're working 32 hours a week, just work 32 hours a week. Let the employers like ewerk pick up the pieces. The costing is his problem, not mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you actually did 32 hours of work in a week I get a feeling it would be a vast improvement on your current efforts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasn't especially impressed with his handling of the stop and search nonsense from a couple of years back. Although I suppose in the end I begrudgingly admitted to myself that holding his hands up on it was a positive. Also, I know it's his job but he talks about London as if it's entirely separate to the rest of the UK, and I find it tedious and unnecessarily divisive.
