Close. I wasn't lying before. I used to work in medical science and have a doctorate. I have never been a medical doctor though. After a bit of good fortune I managed to land a job in politics.
I can see you're still upset. I would like to offer an apology. Gendrosjack, I am really, really, sorry that I earn more money than you.
Swanselona: "If you don't like the wage fiery, do something about, otherwise you are just being paid what you deserve." Don't be such a short-sighted clown. It doesn't matter who is doing the job: me, you or Uncle Tom Diddley. My point is that the Min Wage is derisory - especially within the context of huge profit-making companies. Whether I move on or not is neither here nor there.
Good luck trying to find where i said that lol, so will be waiting for an apology I mean, i didn't even quote it, so dunno how you came to the conclusion i said it
You are one arrogant person. No wonder you fit in well in poitics. Fiery, I do have sympathy with people prepared to put in all hours god sends on minimum to earn a living. But unfortunately with the way of the world not everyone can earn the same. But I have every admiration for somebody prepared to work their balls off.
Right, so why does a police officer appointed to a political position like Police Commissioner deserve £150k a year?
Not sure about £150k a year, but would rather appoint someone with experience in the police force to do the job over some politician that hasn't a clue. After all the title is POLICE commissioner. Would you put someone on the NHS as a head of the police force, no? so why put a politician?
It is a political post. Most senior police officers are fast-tracked through without ever serving on the front line, do they deserve to be paid much more?
The new posts of commisioners in each area are not police officers most are political figures put forward by their respective parties Hence Alun Michaels being the commissioner for SWP. These positions were unwarrented and un needed just another Political positions to allow government a bigger say in how the CC run their respective forces.
first a doctor then not a doctor but a medical technician, then a politician He is another JH telling porkies and sells the Big Issue outside tesco's more like.....you can always catch a liar out if you keep on at him and now we have done this we might as well close the thread...
I'll wait and see if any1 else thinks the thread should be closed Dai and I'll do it. I'd rather every1 said their piece on here rather than have it spill out to other threads.
agree with you there, its a disgrace that its not possible to live off the minimum wage, you have to get your wages topped up with working tax credits (a subsidy to big businesses), the minimum wage should be higher so people can stand on their own 2 feet. as for doctors, there are good doctors and bad doctors, the state of healthcare in this country is pretty darn awful, and our doctors are paid the highest in europe, policeman on the beat deserve every penny they earn, though as i said before, i know one senior one who took retirement at 50, nice work if you can get it....
No need t apologise Monte, I really don't think that's true. What's the going rate for things that scuttle under rocks? Not ,much I think.
