            that's very true we manufactured parts for the ventilators at the start of the pandemic which saved a complete full assembly line being layed off along with a host of companies in the UK

            Looks like Twitter is taking a hit today too not just face book now

            Ark Invest's Cathie Wood sells $142 million of #Twitter shares ahead of the earnings report. Twitter stock is down over 45% in the last 6 months.

            Looks like censorship is the main reason reading today with a host of new platforms now operating under the guise of free speech it seems .

              I know of a good story like this in Wales l .

              Got a feeling if a business cut a corner those employees are just happy the mortgage is still being paid .

              Businesses has many levels of behaviour some you would not condone the one thing I do know they provide employment and as long as those workers rights are cared for think most are happy to get on with life .

              Perhaps for balance a few good business stories could be posted around the pandemic instead of some seeking our the negatives of life .

              If someone has broken the law I'm sure it will be found and dealt with eventually let hope it not to the determent of workers .

                  Do you think the penny will ever drop? I'm hanging on eagerly to see if he'll get it lol. Still, he seems to be enjoying himself.

                    I'm not sure feather or not he will peck up on this, and maybe claw back a bit of credibility - but rook me, I doubt it.

                      By the way, as we have wandered into the world of ornithology, do you know why the game Subbuteo is so called?
                      I understand that the person who devised the game wanted to call it "Hobby", which wasn't possible to trade mark as it is a generic word that cannot be 'owned' by a particular party. Looking up the Latin name of the eponymous bird he found that it was the name he eventually assigned to the game.

                      Just as well that he didn't end up using the Latin name for the thrush i.e. turdus. Ideal for a crap game perhaps.

                        I think you're right Mister Jay.

                          Turdus would be a brilliant name for a British Prime Minister though. Particularly one who loves playing dodgy games.
