Standing by the window I heard it, while waiting for the turn. In hot light and chill air it was the crossing flow of even life, hurt in the mouth but exhausted with passion and joy - RIP J.H. Prynne

There are profound difficulties with the funding model and financial state of UK universities. Crisis isn’t hyperbolic.This ministerial attempt to grapple with them is deeply unserious.

There may be good reasons for allowing substitution clauses as a matter of contractual freedom. Potentially, they could serve the interests of workers and employers. Facilitating the avoidance of statutory liabilities by lead companies in supply chains or chains of labour contracts is not of them.

The Employment Rights Bill will allow collective agreeements to opt out of the labyrinthine provisions on guaranteed hours. Shall we call this the Bogg/Ford amendment? @thebigbogg.bsky.social

Evidence in which @thebigbogg.bsky.social describes himself as a 'simple lawyer' & then suggests removal of the statutory assumption that collective bargaining is not legally enforceable, & deprioritising personal service when determining employment status so that it's just a factor in the mix.
