I can now reveal a near full list of those staff at Versarien (VRS) given P45s for Christmas by loathsome Neill Ricketts. They are now all, apparently on gardening leave, so not working but still on a notice period so the cash savings will not kick in until late March or later. Those made redundant include some heavy hitters so this list begs big questions.

The word on the street is that the “consultation period” with Versarien (VRS) staff where they were ALL told by the loathsome Neill Ricketts that their jobs were “at risk) ended yesterday.

The University lecturers are not happy with their pay offer and so will tomorrow again be withdrawing their labour. For many that will be a real pain as they will actually have to go to the campus in July, in order to signal their displeasure.

And the media just laps up the lies. That brings us to unemployment in the UK which rose in March by 21,000 to 1.7 million. 31 million folks are in work. The increase is therefore just over 0.05% of the workforce , in other words tiny and possibly even seasonal to some degree, but the press bought the line that it was down to businesses not investing in jobs on Brexit fears.
One or two journalists had the decency to add that it might also have been caused at least in bit by the world economy slowing. But they clearly did not think that one through did they?
Yes the world economy is slowing so we saw poor jobs news from across the globe last month with China alone announcing that six million state workers in coal and iron and elsewhere were going to get P45s. In the US the unemployment rate rose from 4.9% to 5%. And those were the brightspots. In Brazil and most of the EU the P45s were flying.
So I put it to you: unemployment is increasing in the US, Brazil and China (as well as in the zombie Eurozone), is that because:
