Im not putting up with it. you know, im hopefully about to take the third troll to court and potentially a fourth at the moment, because im not tolerating it. just this weekend homophobic chanting was heard during a game between nottingham forest and chelsea. the club and the police are investigating. the premier league says it is treating the issue seriously, but in the grounds and online the abuse continues. nick garnett, bbc news. the government has confirmed it will not go ahead with a contr...

Which the union rejected. that was of a 4% pay rise one year and 4% at the next, but with conditions attached, many of which the rmt are unhappy about. the rail delivery group which speaks for those train companies told me they do feel they are getting closer to making an offer to the aslef union but they also say reforms have to be on the table to free up the money for a pay rise. work is clearly going on behind the scenes towards putting their proposals forward to aslef and we know there is, t...
