In the real world of business its up to you to get it and then keep it; not leave it to the opposition to get it and then say they pinched our ball we want it back. Richard Branson didn't get to where he is today by keep moaning about the opposition; he went out and got it and because of his business acumen, steadfastness he got it, kept it, and is a role model of a modern business age. By the way I'm not his brother or father or mother. :chuckle
RM need to get contracts at a price that pays the wages we want/need something our competitors don't have to worry about

Must get in touch with big Dave and BObby Gibson, see how much bonus we would have been paid if their new bonus agreement was already implemented. Me thinks Jack Sh.t but perhaps someone with a more mathematical background may be able to work it out. Another fantastic agreement that will bring back the horrors of Colleague Shares.

i dont think we can have any confidence in the regulator doing RM any favours after the past few years, its put RM into an noncompetitive position and letting others in the industry take advantage
