don't you worry about a thing now you hear?

when it comes to other broad bands joining or not, they can get stuffed. this is what the doctors did in 1945. when labour told them to get stuffed they all got on board. broadband contracts come up for renewal every two years. it will be so easy switch supplier. after all most broadband comes down the bt wires. when it comes to pension fund, if there are any gaps bt wil be held liable.

it will be a snitch.

You have a singular gift for not being able to see the big picture.

How are businesses which own a big chunk of an industry to “join” in providing it free? They’re already part of it and will be put out of business on day one. They have to be accommodated or bought out. Even your Demi-god McDonnell has admitted that.

The UK very much depends upon external investment. With your “We’ll show ‘em!” approach nobody will move a red cent into the country. It’ll all be heading in the opposite direction. Just behind those evil rich people and global corporations. Venezuela?

If you grab - sorry, nationalise - a business you nationalise it’s employees’ pension liability.

interesting history the work week has.
it started with 18 hour a day and 7 days a week.
it then went down to 6.5 days a week with half a day off sunday to go to church
it then went to 6 days a week.
then of course the hours per day dropped down to 8 hours a day
then we had only 5 days a week and 8 hours a day.
the hours of week vary from 35 to 40 now.

so what exactly is the problem with 32 hours er week with 3 day weekend, especially if it actually increased productivity. sure not all industires can move to it straight away but not a bad aim to make it happen by 2030 for all.

in reality technology today means you don't have to travel to the offcie unless you have meetings and of course wihtout all the interruptions at work you can actually achieve your work in less than 32 hours a week.

perhaps life will improve for the future generations after all.

At 32 hours a week would most definitely eliminate any unemployment problems for sure, and even increase immigration to meet the jobs demand, which the Tories are not too crazy about, hence Brexit.

no at all. for 40 years we have had increased productivity and the bosses took all of it. it is time the workers were given a bit of the benefit. certain places will stay open 7 days a week but the rest can close for at least 2 days or 3, it is up to them. the families have suffered enough from this 5 day week. it is time to reduce the timescale as it seems it will not affect productivity as microsoft japan and a few other plaxces have proven too.

brexit will not happen. we will get a second confirmatory vote and if we vote to leave, than we shall otherwise we aint goin nowhere no how.
