Former head of BHS enjoys the life of luxury while former employees and pensioners face a bleak future.

Sir Philip Green having a whale of a time as BHS sinks.







The totally unacceptable face of capitalism. A £571 million "hole" in BHS pension funds, 11,000 BHS workers facing the sack and this wretched man and his family enjoy a life of luxury in the South of France. 




"Do you mind not looking at me like that, it's disturbing me,"



His appearance at the House of Commons Select Committee was a performance of arrogance, self satisfaction, greed, disrespect and complete indifference. We do not need to ask where all the money has gone. Green's lifestyle, his £100 million super yacht the latest addition to his fleet which already boasts, a speedboat, a helicopter and three yachts, as part of his transport collection, says everything about this loathsome man, who's family received hundreds of millions from BHS in dividends and rent.
Green has been accused by two Commons select committee of the “systematic plunder” of the high street chain and failing to address the deficit as he “accrued incredible wealth” for his family.


"Sir" Philip Green should be stripped of his knighthood and prosecuted.

Northern Ireland and Brexit. The return of "The Troubles"

Northern Ireland: police attacked in another night of disturbances | Northern Ireland | The Guardian When the "Brexit" debate was still filling our newspapers and our television screens, readers may remember why I had changed my mind since voting to leave at the referendum vote. Apart from the economic arguments, which had become crystal clear after peeling away all the lies and misrepresentations trotted out by Bozo Boris and his "Get Brexit Done" conspirators, there was always the problem of the border between Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland. Would it be possible to have a border between the European Union and the United Kingdom where people, goods and services could pass freely between the two nations without customs restrictions, tariffs, duties and all the other formalities? Would it be possible to have one part of the United Kingdom treated differently from other parts of the United Kingdom, particularly when Scotland for example had voted overwhe...

Workers face ban on striking .

Organisation and protests against the excesses of this Conservative government is essential. Should Harriet Harman suggest even partial support for Conservative policies, she is clearly in the wrong party.

Leave the clocks alone!

  https://www.kentonline.co.uk/kent/news/did-you-remember-to-put-clocks-forward-224737/ Sanity returns!!! The clocks have gone forward by one hour and perhaps now I can get some proper sleep, and return to normal in numerous other areas which have been disrupted since 25th October 2020. That pesky little person who steals an hour from my sleep and disrupts my time/body clock for the next 6 months, should be confined to a secure location for ever. Never again should I and thousands like me be disrupted every year and for no apparent reason by an outdated and tenuous notion of "daylight saving". In fact we should probably put another hour at the start of the Summer and then stay on Double British Summer Time (DBST). for the duration. Message for pesky little person "LEAVE THE BLOODY CLOCKS ALONE!"
