This is the sort of thing that is bringing about the collapse of society. There is marriage for the prolification of the human species and there is a civil partnership. These are two different things and any attempt to distort that truth is an attack on the integrity of our entire social system. Dancing around the situation trying to be more PC than someone else is a farce.

I feel that I should say that P.A.T is not the catch all/cure all. Ref power tools. A person trained in a trade is trained on the equipment that is necessary for that trade. They should check it every time they use a power tool. Employees have a duty under HASAW to report any real or potential hazard. Proactive prevention not pretty labels.

Sorry folks, you lose the plot. Majority decision carries the day. You cannot opt in or out of this world and just be associated with the bits you like. Neither can you turn the clock back. It is in poor taste to make reference to the Germans in relationship to things that are history. The truth is that unfortunately many young people join up because they don`t have a job and they think of the training they will get. When you draw their attention to the fact that these are the ARMED forces they don`t understand what you mean.
Lets just remember that we have less public holidays that others in Europe and lets have more. I do think that veterans day is not a bad idea. Concentrate on fights that we could win. P.S I am ex-forces.

The word respect has been downgraded to a casual "street" greeting. I believe that those who use it have little understanding of what it means. A truly great shame! There is much talk of RIGHTS but no mention of the RESPONSIBILITIES that are the other side of the same coin.

Accepted that there has always been a problem in getting a driver to respect a company vehicle as if it was their own but this is treading on eggs. Unless there is a signed agreement with the employee I believe there is a serious legal issue. It is my understanding that without such a signed agreement document it is illegal to make any deduction from wages without a court order. The driver needs a the least, to have signed at induction an acceptance and agreement to the company vehicle policy and procedure.

This is a topic where there cannot be a proper debate as the majority of people are frightened to give their honest view. Pregnancy is not an illness. What about the person who took regular time off for "illness" but it then transpired that the time off was for IVF followed by time off for giving birth etc then extended complications, finally a month after their planned return date they gave notice. I make no comment.
