Why do you continue to give the lies of Grant Shapps airtime - he doesn't know his brief and contiually lies
For example Sunday working is within many rail workers contracts
They take 2 teams out because of health and safety

Shapps always look like he is trying to suppress a laugh because he is thinking he is putting one over us.

Ok so that's what Giant Shitts thinks.. but what do Sebastion Fox and Michael Green think?

[davidhenrywall]

All the media are not for the working class people this grant shapps want, s everyone to work for poor wages, s , tv.presenters on hundreds of thousands ayear and journalists, they are well overpaid, they don't like strikes and don't want the ordinary people in society get on in life help the needy not the greedy

If Truss does get the keys to No 10 ditching this second rater would be a good start.

Grant Shapps, a man we can trust, whom (I believe) was exposed for trading in the US under an assumed identity?

[michaelgriffiths]

I’m glad the the Secretary of State for Transport thinks rail workers rights are worth laughing and sniggering about. What a heartless and vile person he is!

What do these people mean by ‘levelling up’? It seems to me like a worthless slogan or they mean levelling up CEO’s wage packets and suppressing everybody on less than £40k

[captainbuggernut]

Shapps was a bellend when he was a whip. Thoroughly unpleasant fellow by all accounts. His shallow attempts at garnering support by proposing unworkable laws for cyclists are no surprise. Real issues like strikes and huge queues at Dover he has no idea how to fix.

The rest of workers don't get the annual rise in income and expenses that Parliament get from the laughably "independent" awards commission.All this genius will deliver is martyrs.He needs to get the Civil Service back to work and de-politicised.
