He's not had a good PMQs yet has he? I think even Truss managed to have a better idea of what was going on
The bloke has no idea how to pay for a can of coke with a debit card, I doubt he even knows what a stamp is.

Hardly hilarious as Royal Mail since privatisation pays no corporation tax.

Also being a former monopoly, if Royal Mail fails to make a profit the tax payer steps into the frame and pays 10% above its operating costs.
It's still a monopoly. No-one else delivers mail.

And that is exactly the problem. You cannot have a privatised former state monopoy remain that monopoly provider post privatisation.

Look at British Gas and Transco or BT and Openreach?

This is why I believe Royal Mail will be broken up into individual private companies with this dispute

I Wrote-During Covid-Which is still relevant now
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.

VAT on private schools nil VAT on most stuff 20% even tampons have VAT and other things but the rich do as rich is best avoid tax by lack of legislation of tax who the may pay themselves. Nice one Rishi Sunak ask me to vote for you and you and your ilk will get a warm wee hug around the neck and thrown into a big stinking bog of shite!
