eastie hasn't said if he would or wouldn't report a fellow worker, just that it is his business. Using cars/leaving last weeks D2Ds on display could have a direct effect on him,family working member, or fellow worker.

Why?In D.O's pre revision it was almost standard practice to use your own cars if you had one and nobody gave a f-=k about anybody else,post revision using cars is banned.So how is it going to have a direct effect on him? he should do his hours,go home get paid and not worry about what other people are doing.

Failing to report a crime to the appropriate authorities is still a crime in Scotland as far as I know.
How would you feel if one of these twats kills a child while driving uninsured ......and actually you could have maybe stopped it?
The societies of consumption and squandering of material resources are incompatible with the idea of economic growth and a clean planet.

You sound like a proper communist,report your own mother for a bag of spuds,and you are saying that we should have reported everyone of our workmates who used their own car,drivel,how many did you report.

From what i can see the (final :pray ) banning of private car use is about the only good thing to come out of a revision.

Surely in a proper communist scenario using your own car would be impossible.
