Victorian Posted July 3, 2019 Share Posted July 3, 2019 The justification is always that the remuneration given is at the industry rate. It's a wholly bogus construct. The 'industry rate' is a grossly inflated, bloated, unjustifiable pig trough. If these so-called major talented stars believe they can earn as much or more in commercial television then they should go and do it. The ones who actually can make more money already do and never have any particular loyalty to the BBC. There is a finite number of positions to go around and they can't all occupy the top earning gigs. The supply and demand of the employment sector should organically determine the so-called going rate and it's true value is a long way short of the artificially bloated rate that is perpetually justified.

Victorian Posted July 3, 2019 Share Posted July 3, 2019 If the BBC believes it is empowered to offer commercial industry rate remuneration... it should become a commercial enterprise.

Labour have no chance with Corbyn. The Brexit voters hate him because he’s seen as a weak, anti British Army, terrorist sympathiser and the Remain voters don’t see Labour as a pro European party. They are absolutely screwed with him as leader. The only folk that will be voting Labour at the next GE are the people who always have and always will. I think they’ll get their lowest vote they’ve ever had at any future GE if it’s that Labour Party and that front bench. The English public will vote Brexit party over Labour in working class areas and now with the Golden Womble incharge of the Tories, the South will vote Tory because he’s going to reduce all their taxes. Those who want to stay in the EU will vote Lib Dem. In Scotland the SNP will romp it. When Boris takes charge and tells the EU to bolt, he could actually claim all those Brexit Party votes back and the Brexit Party probably won’t even stand if we leave with No Deal. At the end of the day, what Engerlund wants, Engurlund gets and they want No deal Brexit and an arsehole English Trump in charge. Simple folk with simple minds.

IN IT TOGETHER REMEMBER. “The fact that there are about 1.6 million lost pension pots in the UK – amounting to nearly £20 billion of unclaimed pension funds – is yet another failing of this Tory government and quite frankly daylight robbery to allow the savings, rights and entitlements of citizens to go unclaimed and unpaid. My SNP colleagues and I have consistently argued for a fairer pension system that delivers dignity in retirement." - Mhairi Black MP (SNP).

Who TF voted for that c u next Tuesday? & Why? Why, well I blame the Lib Dems, because they abandoned the area to the Tories back in 2005. Prior to that, this had been amongst the safest of safe Liberal & then the Lib Dem seats in the country, the seat of David Steel since the 60's until the late 90's when Michael Moore took over from him, then due to boundary changes the Lib Dems knew that they would lose the seat to the Tories, so they moved Michael Moore to the neighbouring constituency of Ettrick & Lauderdale & until the last GE it was still a Lib Dem seat, now even it's Tory. Since 2005 we have had David Mundell as our MP, the Lib Dems now come 3rd/4th a long way behind the Tories whose only real challenge are the SNP, but even they seem to be waning as Mundell increased his majority at the last GE. There are probably many reasons why he increased his majority and personally I wonder what part the large influx of retirees from England who seem to have moved into many areas of the Borders over the last decade or so have had on this. Again there are probably many reasons why, cheaper houses, cheaper cost of living, many a free health care benefit which they have to pay for in England, but not for in Scotland. Whilst there are many older people here in the Borders, good old NHS Scotland are keeping them alive for longer, hence why, unfortunately, I can't see any of the Border constituencies turning any other colour than blue for the forseeable, like it or lump it, it seems we are stuck with the Tories down here, and I can't see it changing any time soon.
