@cona674@RecursiveChange@OliDugmore He owns stock cos he started the businesses himself, he’s not a silent investor looking for dividends or capital gains. he’s literally the driving visionary force behind all of his businesses.
@JulesBywaterLee@JPBWFarm Not nonsense the basic screening / intake cost was £27m £700m is the extra cost of the fish mitigation measures. It’s the same nonsense that led to the spending of £100m on a tunnel for 300 bats that may not even need it.
@realbazwhitt@DanielA84612544 No it wouldn’t 120,000 people work for Sainsbury’s £1ph pay rise (8%) would cost about £150m his pay rise wouldn’t pay a for even 0.5% of a 30% pay rise
