Re: Contract worries for Wigan's Aussies
<t>I can't see how any Superleague club can renegotiate the contracts if they are already up to the salary cap limit. At the end of the day the players have signed the contracts and should honour them. I would not be able to renegotiate my contract if the basic rate of tax was increased.<br/> <br/> ...

Re: Student protests
<t>I believe Dennis Skinner separated from his wife due to the pressures of Parliamentary life sometime before starting a relationship with another woman. Some Tory biased paper tried to stitch him up when Tory MPs were being exposed as a bunch of philanderers during thir "Back to Basics" campaign. ...

Re: Student protests
<t>I wonder if the CCTV footage will be used to help identify members of the Police who removed their i.d. numbers as well as the demonstrators who were causing trouble. I think we all know the answer.<br/> <br/> Anyway, for those students who get prosecuted (make the most of your Legal Aid as that ...

Re: New Wigan Book
<t>I got my copy last week.<br/> <br/> I thought the comparison of the 1923(?) squad with the current squad was interesting. In 1923 only one forward weighed in at over 14 stone! Amazing when you consider most of todays centres and some wingers are bigger. <br/> <br/> The number of Welsh players in ...
Re: Heinz
<t>I fully support the workers in trying to get a RPI related pay rise from what is still a very profitable company. Who here would object to their representatives trying to get an inflation proo rise in pay from a profitable company? If Heinz were struggling financially I could understand them givi...

Re: Student protests
<t>Mick<br/> <br/> I know the poorest students will get part of their fees paid and that they only have to start repaying loans once their earnings get above a certain point. The problem is there aren't that many well paid jobs for todays students out there. <br/> <br/> I have a degree and Ph.D. in ...

Re: Calling all site members !
<t>Nice point about the banks TEW.<br/> <br/> I get sick of the government blaming everything on the debts left behind by the previous Labour regime, conveniently ignoring the fact that the debts are due to Labour having to bail-out the Tories rich mates in the City in order to stop the economy goin...

Student protests
<t>Got to say well done to the students gor getting off their backsides and having a French style protest.<br/> <br/> Maybe if more of my contemporaries had kicked up such a fuss when Maggie axed student maintenance grants and when Labour (much to my eternal dismay as Labour member) introduced tuiti...
Re: Heinz
<t>Maybe if other people were members of strong unions like the Heinz staff we, in the private sector, wouldn't all be worrying about the lack of decent pensions anymore.<br/> <br/> The public sector employees should be glad that they still have strong unions to fight their cause.<br/> <br/> And bef...
