    Just on the whole "Forest trying to get larger bids in" idea, it doesn't work. A release clause is a release clause as in, you agree to deposit £60m and he is released from his contract. In that context, it doesnt matter if another club offers £100m, he is still entitled to choose us over them...

    Its more if Forest got lawyers involved to sue Spurs as they're threatening to do, if I was Spurs legal team in that situation I'd just be like "oh you want to open that whole can of worms do you?"

    The modric and olise cases have not been tested in a proper court. Every time clubs refusing to release players unless they receive an arbitary transfer fee has been tested in court, its been found to be illegal. Changes to the transfer system were made by FIFA following the Bosman case and...

    If tested in a proper court, it is highly unlikely that the principle of not being able to speak to a player without their club's permission would hold up. Wide variety of court cases, most famous of which being Bosman have established that normal conducts of employment and freedom to seek...

    The Thatcher years were hard for the country as old industries that has sustained many communities were shut down. These industries were dying and she prepared the country for the modern era, repurposing it for a huge uplift in living standards. When Thatcher came to power genuine slum...

    Liz Truss wasn't a wrecking ball as she didn't have the confidence, conviction or gravitas to pull it off. She was humiliated and forced to hand over control. Thatcher was a wrecking ball in the late 70s/80s. We need that level of transformation and reform again, with someone that won't back...

    They've said 29.2% in one hit is what is required to restore pay based on their analysis (which is flawed as they only use one metric of inflation which isnt the usual metric for calculating real-terms pay changes over time either). They've produced a chart setting out how long it would take to...

    NI is circular as the NHS has to make NI contributions, but it goes back to the treasury. The baseline costs are simplistic but the pension liabilities are the main sink as long as NHS pension liabilities remain wedded to average salary through their careers.

    Well, 29.2% is what they are asking for to avoid strike action. They've been offered just over 5%

    They're asking for a 29% pay increase, which would represent a baseline additional cost to public finances of over £500 million annually including additional pension contributions but that doesnt include the additional cost of overtime payments and pension liabilities (to cover the gap between...

    "I'd pay them whatever they want" isnt a realistic policy position though is it? People can't have it both ways. They can't have a public health service with no private funding entirely reliant on public financing and also have "we should just give them what they want". If you want doctors to...
