I still work at Royal Mail and all my work colleagues are very concerned . We’ve already been through a lot and we’re now wondering what’s next around the corner. We have already lost a shed load of jobs and people are leaving all the time. Thankfully I haven’t got long to go . I’m looking at going sometime later next year.

Disgusting to see CEB with his snout in the trough here, no wonder he kept that hypocrisy quiet.

I was hoping nobody would realise. I thought admitting to a spurs season ticket might stop further scrutiny

Surprising. You have history in voting to leave. That worked out well too.

Selling them off is dumb.

Selling them to foreign owners who have no interest other than ripping the arse out of the business to extract as much profit as possible from the people of the UK is criminal.

People seem to have forgotten the state of our waterways as that hasn't been in the news for over a week. FFS.
