The railway operating companies make a profit thanks to public subsidy. The ‘fat cats’ that you perceive to be benefiting from profits are actually pension funds. If you pay into a private pension fund and want to receive anything when you retire then you need it to own shares in companies that make profits. All of the railway companies are dependent upon Network Rail to provide the track infrastructure. Paying more wages to inefficient and unproductive workers makes no business sense at all. Working From Home (WFH) is a practice that only favours older experienced workers. It is bad news for young workers because they do not get to learn from experienced colleagues and they cannot further their careers by workplace networking with their managers when all they are is a face on a Zoom call. If being physically present is not necessary to the job then employers might as well export the jobs to India where they can get cheaper faces on a Zoom call. Totally useless Civil Servants love WFH because they do not have to commute to an office to do virtually nothing until they get their gold-plated pensions.
Whilst Hull City Council is the product of local electorate apathy – currently run by the Lib Dems after the May elections – the city’s three MPs attract similar levels of popular support as most MPs in Parliament. If Boris got around to enacting the recommendations of the Boundary Commission then Labour would immediately lose two of those seats as boundary changes with neighbouring Conservative constituencies would leave only Dame Diana Johnson’s North Hull seat in Labour hands. Post Industrial cities like Hull are in terminal decline with their Leftie officials pursuing a Utopian myth.
Does anybody want to post some ACTUAL FACTS about how much profit the train operating companies made last year? Total imbecile Piggy Malone has echoed several Twitter cretins giving different exaggerations of their profits. I am amazed that one of the two hypocrite Garys has not tweeted that it is a billion pounds. Millionaire footballers championing the plebs that made them rich and continue to do so. He posted a meme yesterday that he had already posted a couple of days before as he is desperately trying to cram as many ‘I hate the Tories’ posts onto this thread. Out of his more than 1700 posts, how many actually contain any comment by him? Sending him to the slaughter house would be an act of kindness – he is gammon that definitely should be slayed.
Telegraph – 24th June 2022 Headline: The Tories have been utterly humiliated. If Boris Johnson stays, they are doomed Sub headline: To lose a 24,000 majority is an electoral disaster. Without change, the Conservatives are on course for a 1997-style wipeout Author: Nigel Farage It only takes him nine paragraphs to sum up everything that Boris has failed to achieve since December 2019. “But a new leader prepared to radically cut VAT, take us out of the ECHR and fulfil a Proper Brexit might just give them half a chance.” Those painting Wakefield as a validation of Starmer’s leadership of the Official Raving Loony Party should remember that he was leader when they lost Hartlepool and they only just scraped over the line to hold Batley and Spen. The Lib Dem protest vote has outperformed Starmer since he became leader with 3 by-election gains. In Devon, 10,000 who voted for Liz Pole in 2019 disappeared and she lost her deposit while the Lib Dems gained 13,000 and turnout was down 17,000 – looks like Conservative voters stayed home as they lost 19,500 votes.
OBR estimates are consistently rubbish and in this case they have used two invalid assumptions. Otto English is a brain dead spastic. Why does the imbecile Piggy Malone keep echoing this sh*t? (other than because he is an imbecile who spends all day on Twatter)
That would be the quoting of an article written by The Guardian’s North of England editor about Starmer’s unpopularity, Mr Hindsight... Labour did not ‘win’ – the Tory vote fell more than theirs leaving them in first place. More Tory voters stayed at home than did for Labour: Starmer so popular with Red Wall voters. Neither of them are fit to run anything. The Labour vote fell by 4,700 and the Conservative vote fell by 13,000 so Labour ‘won’ because Conservative voters stayed at home rather than switching to the Lib Dems. The Lib Dems were only bothered about Tiverton and Honiton so no protest vote. In Devon, Labour lost their deposit. In Wakefield, the Lib Dems lost their deposit. When Piggy Malone quoted some wholly inaccurate piece about train fares written by the BBC a decade ago, you probably saw nothing wrong with it.
Now might be a good time to mention (again) that Brexit was won by virtually the same amount of votes as jocks that voted for it
Are you really that influenced by the media? Very weak minded if so and explains the twatter ****e you post.
