    Man who died after restraint by Metrolink contracted security staff is ruled to have been unlawfully killed.

    Lots of emotive language being used here. Given that none of us are privy to the investigation and what evidence there is (or isn't), I am not sure how anyone on here can categorically state this was "murder".

    Tramlink derailment Monday 2018-04-09

    Person clipped by train & incident apparently not reported immediately

    He's not nit picking, he's stating the facts. Also, Given it sounds like a glancing blow, how do you know the driver knew he hit the passenger and how do you know he only reported it 40 minutes later?

    To recline or not to recline on planes....

    Sorry but how in the hell is it rude to recline you seat?? What you are doing to prevent it is totally out of order!:roll: I pay my fare, and I'm within my rights to use it... and I will, particularly if I have upgraded.

    Tube Strike: April 2012

    Striking as a whole is not unreasonable. What will reducing benefits to the rest of the staff achieve? As far as I can see that will just shift the issue to the other side of the employees and there will be alot more will power for strike action for perk/benefit loses than there would be for...
