Random Irritations

They can if they want.

But the club you mentioned has been hoist by their own petard because they let both sexes in. So it's not really a single-sex club is it? They cant have it both ways.

I was referring to the concept of single sex clubs.

Probably knock a charge for board and rent off his compensation like they did with the bloke a few years ago 😱

Yeah that was disgraceful behaviour. I would argue that it was not my choice to board at the establishment for 38 years and I would not be paying for it. The bloke has every right to take them to the cleaners if he is completely clean.

I remember back in the day we were told our rest period could be when flying to an event. So no compensation days were going to be given.
They soon retracted that statement when asked if rest means free time? and does free time mean you are free to do as you please.. ?

If part of any society deems it appropriate and acceptable to administer such punishment, then members of that same society must accept that it is their responsibility to pull the trigger and to carry out the punishment as humanely as possible.

Did he make sure that the three people he murdered died humanely?

The thing that concerns me most is that there's a systemic fault in the way that the CCRC approaches reviews. They insist on having new evidence available. He had been denied reviews on previous occasions and it's only advances in forensics that eventually got him justice. If the DNA sample from 40 years back had been lost or destroyed he would have had no chance.

What about reviewing whether the investigation at the time was flawed? It's clear that he was charged and convicted on pretty flimsy grounds and denied legal advice during interrogation. Strikes me that the police were desperate to find someone - anyone - to take the rap.
 
I've just had to fill in yet another tick box questionnaire at work. Does your company have an Anti Slavery policy, Child Labour policy etc? Utterly pointless, does anyone ever check them? Has anyone had a visit from a customer to check whether you are shoving 12yr olds up chimneys? I understand the sentiment but blimey they are worthless.

Yeah, it feels like we have to redo them every couple of months, maybe it's once a year or something, I don't know. I just click through them as fast as possible and guess the answers at the end to 'pass' it. Waste of everyone's time.
