That is absoluely disgraceful. It is almost slave labour, contravening the Human Rights Act. Is there any way that these employees can refuse to sign this contract? It might mean no job, but if they all did it, then the employers might have to change. These homes charge a fortune for residents, and I suspect that very little of this money goes to the carers, who are the most important people in ...

Can someone explain taking into consideration the lack of jobs locally, how privately owned care homes get away with abusing workers rights. They make staff sign contracts of employment that allow exemption from EU working time directive laws, union agreements and generally accepted overtime, holiday and sickpay schemes. They expect staff to work regular 14 hour shifts without the required paid ...

Lib Dems in opposition -We voted against bin tax. Lib Dems in power - keep bin tax and allow price increase. Summary Yet another reason to remember this, next time election comes round

Getting started for a fun week of activity lots to do every day, just hope the weather is kind as a lot of hard work goes into an event like this. Well done to all concerned.

Any more suggestions as to what might be happening to the ducks/swans. @leatash .Have you ever seen receipts of what has been sold or the address that they went too? @Duckileaks . Who owns the gaggle of geese that are free to roam, they never get killed by someones dog? They are not technically wild fowl.  Why is it always the swans that fall foul to dogs/foxes as has been suggested.

Thanks ShyTalk 47

William Power did a very good job on my balcony.  He lives on the Bovis estate so is undoutedly local.

A lot of clearing work going on around the football pitch. Just wondered what this was used for?

See the libtard snowflakes at Teignbridge have just handed out £100,000 of tax payers money to finance yet another waste of time cycle path. Funny how they can do this when they cannot keep the public toilets open, mow the grass verges or provide surficient dog waste and ordinary bins to meet the holiday demand. The cycle path network was suposed to be fiananced by grant money provided by Sustrans ...
