A lot of people have heads in the sand . Electric car sales could take years to take off . Its shite at moment like . 9000 job cuts speaks volumes. Hopefully a Labour Government the saving grace for NMUK
The Tories at the end were a farce

Surely all the ones rushing to buy an ICE vehicle will save them.
Having one of us(mackem) as a business secretary will surely help

Behave man.
GDP growth has slowed, NI rises, which will kill small business, tax rises, bus cap rise by 50% amongst other things

Also there were no credible alternatives to vote for anyway.
You are right. My 4 months comment was as if to say' it's only been 4 months,give them a chance'. People expecting miracles after 14 years of shite man. Give labour a bit of time,they will sort it

Keep hearing stand downs mentioned on here . What's the legality of these. Thought if you were contracted to so many hours you had to be payed for them without owing any hours back .
Working time calendar for December should hopefully be out tomorrow which may include more stand downs in December, but may not.
And as for owing hours you can take them unpaid, use holidays or have the day off and pay them back.
Your right about being contracted to work so many hours and being paid for them but if you aren’t working them (stand downs) then those hours have to be accounted for.
You can’t take standowns unpaid. If you have a holiday in for the dates, you can’t take them out. It’s in the company’s terms and conditions that you agreed to when you sign your contract. There only allowed to give us 7, but you only have to pay 6 half shifts back

Just like practically everything these days it’s made out of cheaper steel which would have been a factor in the days of the yards with foreign country’s bidding for the jobs. Plus those country’s had cheap as chips wages to pay.
The gear that went missing out of the yards had to be paid for somehow so surely this would be put on the price of a build which with the cheaper steel would have been one of the reasons why the work went elsewhere also.
Back in the day if ya wanted owt ya knew someone in the yards n it was out the back door for ya.
Judging by the build numbers for Dec. Think there will be more standowns

Been rumoured for a while that it's 4 days weeks all through December. Grim.
