And that is more or less what Stockport’s finest historian (after Dosser and Ian Watts) said (AJP Taylor for those that don’t believe there is a third). Wasn’t he from SOUTHport? Think he lived in Disley 😀

The IMF has predicted the UK will have the lowest growth in the G20 this year followed by just 1% growth next year, Jeremy Hunt says it shows we're on the right track, WTF!

Same thing, I know because I used to work with a woman who’d been to Stockport and liked the beach, and she wasn’t accepting any argument otherwise

Raab gone, some people make light of bullying but it can make people's lives a misery, I've only come up against it once and I was in a good position so I could just tell the bully in question I didn't need the job and as it was agency I just needed to give one week notice, anyone with a mortgage and kids who needs the job probably goes through hell.

Someone tried to bully you! Joking aside it is despicable. Raab, of course, gets to resign, rather than be sacked stating that the investigation was flawed. He'll soon be back bullying in another highly paid job.

He'll soon be back bullying in another highly paid job. I've always been quite lucky and worked for some really good organisations with mostly good people but in one of my last agency jobs a pretty horrible woman had everyone in her office one by one and some were coming out in tears, she called me in and before she even spoke I told her I was handing in my notice, it took the wind out of her sails, I also told her that I'd be writing a detailed email to the senior manager which I did as soon as I left the office.

Think its a case of more of the inability to motavate people in general than bullying. Everyone is different and should be tret accordingly. The bully in the workplace rarely gets the best out of people in the same way as someone seen as soft doesn,t either. Some people do need a bomb permanently put up their arse which could for some be taken as bullying but not by others. Its a difficult subject to discuss when you are dealing with many people and like everyone in every position there will be someone who supports raab. The difference with him he is in the public eye and not in an obscure factory somewhere where someone will be acting in a similar manner.

Like being a bit of a wife-beater or a bit of a rapist.

Like being a bit of a wife-beater or a bit of a rapist. He has gone. Good riddance to bad rubbish. Sunak doesn’t help himself by appointing the likes of Raab and Braverman - but I suppose political expediency demands it.
