Will the PSM in Nottingham be fitted with buoys?
The societies of consumption and squandering of material resources are incompatible with the idea of economic growth and a clean planet.

:nana :nana Was just about to say maybe they should spend the money sorting the roof out first. But if they have a new midlands hub would it be cheaper to f**k Notts off as a bad job and move everything to the new super hub?

The CWU need to get a confirmation on which MCs are getting PSMs and how many (for sites getting more than one)
