Re: Moya Greene giving evidence to stamp price regulation co
I'll admit that she looked like a moose caught in the headlights initially.
There was a distinct lack of hard statistical information to throw at the commitee. It was generalisations, cliches and all rather vague.
(Whoever was supposed to brief her did a crappy job for sure.)
However, mercifully, she got better as it went on and finished reasonably strongly throwing some facts into the mix.
For example; 5,400 fewer people by the end of the year, 2,000 of those to come from management.
We have to achieve a target of 93% on first-class, Deutsche Post has only to meet a target of 80%.
Good to see her denigrate the regulatory framework.
Blimey, I'm warming to the lady!

The societies of consumption and squandering of material resources are incompatible with the idea of economic growth and a clean planet.

Re: Moya Greene giving evidence to stamp price regulation co
I think we'd better get this back on topic;
What a prick that Simon Kirby character is! I reckon Moya must have been itching to tell him to do one.
Then I googled him and found out that he's the Consevative MP for Brighton Kemptown and Peacehaven. Say no more.

Did you spot the unused name tag marked "DAVE WARD" on a table in the background?

Sadly there was a longer queue in the Westminster Greggs than he had anticipated.Straight4ward wrote:Did you spot the unused name tag marked "DAVE WARD" on a table in the background?
