...chooses to praises the public sector, the latest figures from the Office For National Statistics have just been released and for the first time they have been broken down by sector.

The public sector accounts for 20% of the UK's workforce and 72% of the days lost due to strikes. The Time's graph below for previous years is even more striking than the civil service unions.

There's a graph on www.xoggoth.org/images/public.jpg but imagy thing ain't working. Is it my PC??? My net access seems @sred up all round.

Morning All,

having read this article,

http://www.timesonline.co.uk/article...214903,00.html

those who are alert and awake this morning spot the special sentence.

It is now much clearer to see who will be next to have the top job, and I'll be having a wager to that effect next time I visit blighty.

Milan.

Yes, interesting times...

One Tory MEP yesterday vowed to pull out of the group unilaterally if the Tory leader decided to stay, while several others have declared that they will stay on if the Conservative Party leaves.

Milan, that has to be the biggest non-news you've ever posted. Who gives a tulip what the Tory MEPs do? David Cameron doesn't for starters and, I suspect, 99.99% of all others at Westminster are like minded too.

TheMaster,

I can see you are only TheMaster by name.

I'll see if I can find a Mr Men book on the subject for you.

Milan.

Milan makes a funny (that actually is).
More power to your elbow, Milan.

Milan, please explain it to me. I'm not too big to admit that I am a fool and you are a towering genius.

[Fleetwood]

I didn't get it either, Maître...

[milanbenes]
