OutByEaster? Posted July 12, 2023 Moderator Share Posted July 12, 2023 It's difficult for her to quit completely until she's found new £45k a year jobs for her two daughters who work in her office. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

desensitized43 Posted July 13, 2023 Share Posted July 13, 2023 Has Johnson handed over his phone yet? Any reporting on that or are we just supposed to pretend the only thing to talk about is Huw Edwards? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Genie Posted July 13, 2023 Share Posted July 13, 2023 I reckon there’s enough material to have a 24 hour news channel dedicated solely to the Tory party. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wainy316 Posted July 13, 2023 Share Posted July 13, 2023 Public sector pay rises of around 6% then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCJonah Posted July 13, 2023 Share Posted July 13, 2023 Seems like they've u-turned on the recommned pay for teachers. And it seems like it's being funded, which was a huge issue last time. Still below private sector increases and still below what Scottish teachers got. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The previous offer of 4.3% was coming from extra funding. This increased of of 6.5% means the extra 2.2% will have to come from existing funding. With average pay rises in private sector at 7%, inflation being around 10% and real terms pay cuts for teachers of over 10% since 2010 then it is hardly a good offer is it but as good as these bastards will stump up.

Yep. The fact they threatened to give nothing last week is going to make some people feel like this is a win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davkaus Posted July 13, 2023 Share Posted July 13, 2023 No wonder she hasn't resigned, she's got a few more hopeful angles to persue. I'll actually kind of miss Mad Nads when she finally loses her seat. https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/nadine-dorries-peerage-reported-honours-list-hq5dkvd3v Quote Britain’s most senior civil servant has reported Nadine Dorries, the former cabinet minister, to the Commons Speaker over a “forceful” message he said she sent him suggesting she be added to Liz Truss’s resignation honours list. The Times has been told that Dorries sent a WhatsApp message to Simon Case, the cabinet secretary, asking directly if she could be included on Truss’s future list of peers after being blocked from receiving a peerage in Boris Johnson’s resignation honours list. She was also accused of saying that she would be prepared to use her platform in the Commons to criticise the government and establish why she had been taken off Johnson’s list. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suppose from a technical point of view they could be at the recipient end as well. It matters because it shows the utter contempt the man and the party he used to belong to have to the inquiry into the deaths of more than 100,000 Britons. He should have been more than happy to cooperate fully but instead they all have to drag this thing out for reasons I think we can all gather. Oh and I don’t believe he doesn’t remember his **** password either. Utter scum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
