Personally, If the above is an example of a sickness situation, it's quite clearly excessive, it's no wonder the PS has the highest rate of sickness when compared with the rest of the working population.

I think if TM spent less time trying to be Thatcheresque and more time attending to things that actually matter that in itself may make a difference.
However, sadly it appears just like Cameron she has become a hostage of her own party.How roughly 60 hardline M.P.s plus Murdoch et-al have managed to change the direction and fortunes of not just this country but the whole of Europe is both alarming and astonishing.
The world is now in a more dangerous and vulnerable place than at any time since the Russian Cuban missile crisis in the 60s.
