Royal Mail boss touted as Rose's M&S successor

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/money/articl ... essor.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Allan Leighton, who has spent seven years as chairman of Royal Mail, is being touted as a possible successor to Sir Stuart Rose at Marks & Spencer.

Rose, who will this week unveil a sharp downturn in sales at Britain's biggest clothing chain, is coming under increasing pressure to give up his dual role as chairman and chief executive of the retail group.

Leighton's name emerged at the weekend - together with that of Archie Norman, with whom he worked at Asda in the Nineties before the supermarket chain was sold to American retail giant WalMart.

It's good to get these types of threads, the ridiculous my manager said bollox, so we can reassure ourselves that while the world is falling apart, Royal Mail managers are still being the low-life C***S they have always been.

The daily grind of having to argue your case with an intellectual pigmy of a line manager is physically and emotionally draining.

Well that would be pretty easy if he bought from M&S - I bought myself some underpants at xmas, with a gift voucher before you start, they cost £15 - I'd probably had them on a couple of times or so in the time Jan to mid Feb, they had a double stitched seam at the back which opened up from the crutch to the waistband. And no I can't say I have anything special to cause that. A second pair has developed a hole on the very same seam ................... so even if you could afford it disgruntled keep going commando :wave
