Busineses will jump on the band wagon. I remember when decimalization started. I said to a baker the day before it started, " how will the change affect you", he said, " well today I have got to make 240 penny buns to make a £, and tomorrow I will only have to make 100 to make the same £". To me that said it all.

The point is that the largest producers of fruit and veg are outside of the EU and as tariffs on goods from outside the EU are being cut to zero maybe things will be cheaper, i doubt that will be the case but one can always hope.

I reckon there may well be some vacancies in parliament soon, and when those seats are up for grabs who will go for it?. Pay is a lot more that 27k.

This isn't a new job, it's a replacement of Alison Holmes who has done this job for several years now but has handed her notice in to move onto something else. So the salary is already within the budget. I think she's done a good job and whoever takes over has big shoes to fill!

Another waste of tax payers money.

Well, well. Would you Adam and Eve it. Just had a Lib Dem Focus delivered and lo and behold there is a bit in it about the future of the lawn.  It says that detailed designs will be presented for further public approval before any final application is made.
