    Whitewash at RT.

    The key issue with the report is that what they asked the reviewer to do is compliance with corporate goverance best practice. So all it looked at was whether the board was ahering to its own goverance rules and also how RT goverance was being undertaken against best practice. You can so easily...

    Ea again

    The major problem with all these government organisations is that all actual work is outsourced. In the 80’s and 90’s the easy way to show savings was to outsource works so that these entities could show that they had saved salaries, however the works elements were then tendered on a minimum...

    This isn't going to end well!

    The problem with the issue in Gaza now is that no Plastistians either in Gaza or elsewhere in the world seems apologetic that Hamas went too far. The press reportng from Gaza seem to give an impression that Hamas and its followers, the plastianian people are the innocent party. What Hamas did...

    This isn't going to end well!

    How can you say the Israelis are over playing their hand. In a report this morning on what went on in Kibbutz Be'ri where 100 bodies have been discovered. The Hamas terrosist entered houses and systematicaly slaughtered people of all ages, using machine guns and axes. It is even being reported...

    This isn't going to end well!

    I have been following the events on british news and have been appaled at the lack of reporting on the various atrocities that Hamas has caused in Israel, there is more coverage of what is going on in Gaza than the atrocities that Hamas has caused in Israel. Fortunately I can speak French so...

    This isn't going to end well!

    Hamas may have surpised Israel but they have effectively nailed their own coffin. Isreal will squash Hamas so hard. I do not see the point of what Hamas has done, yes the Palestians have not had it easy but in the recent years both sides have lived in a fairly stable state for that part of the...

    Rishi and the seven bins

    For the majority of people in urban areas, just having two or three bins is too much as there is nowhere to store them. Just look down a terreaced housing street and see those bins all outside on the pavement. Even in new housing estates architects do not even think of where people put bins...

    Establishing Market Value of a pick up

    it would not surprise me that some insurance companies incentive their staff to get settlement below the true cost of replacement. That maybe why some insurance personnel use underhand tatics as they maybe personal bonus incentive driven. All insurance companies are in it only for themselves...

    At present there are 36 scheduled freight trains a day running in each direction from Felixstowe. Just over half of them, 19, use the cross-country link from Ipswich to Ely and Peterborough before heading to the north and midlands.The rest travel to London and then head up the main lines to the...

    HS2

    I think we should all look at the first High Speed train line in the UK, London to the Channel Tunnel. At developmet stage and during construction the same complaints and arguments where being said about that line. The waste of money, the destruction of the environment, how the railway line...

    HS2

    As has been said previously the key driver will be increasing freight to the North West, Currently all train movements Intercity, commuter and freight share the West Caost Main Line (WCML) from London to Birmingham, Manchester and to Scotland. There are no spare slots to increase freights also...

    HS2 phase 2 cancellation ?

    Delaying the works will not actually save money, all it will do is spread the cost over two extra fiscal years. Having worked on major infrastruture projects such as this over 30 years, delaying actually increases costs as the overhead management costs will increase to cover the delay. Then the...

    Supermarkets buy yet more favour

    In this day and age I feel it is just so sexist to have such an award " The top 10 women". These people who set up the awards are the first to complain about sexist in the workplace and then create an award which is just so sexist. Why not just have an award for the top 10 people in the industry...

    Harry's farm

    The "Lockdown Files" Telegraph Investigation

    What is even more incredulous is that all the whats app message had already been sent to the inquiry team. I think in one respect The Telegraph have paid her no doubt handsomely for messages which essentially shows the ministers were having a heathly discussion on the merits of lock down. I...

    Supporting The NHS and Nurses

    The key problem of the NHS is that it is too top heavy. There are only 30 % of staff who are front line, doctors, nurses etc. Also the stats do not take account of outsourced services undertaken in the hositals which would not ne included in the NHS headcount. Also I do not understand why all...
