    Would you fly on a Boeing 737 Max?

    Bought a brickton of Airbus ones the moment this one happened. Can't trust the public to see sense in these things.

    We no longer have any employees that observe Ramadan, it's not an issue.

    In the summer there's around 18 or 19 hours between dawn and dusk. As much as I wish it were so, I can't make people work 18 hour shifts, so it's not really relevant.

    Quite. And that's the issue that was at hand. It was a pre-planned choice to do so, so I had the opportunity to minimise the risk from it

    It's a relatively small company. I own it now but was just a director at the time. That policy was set with advice from both Croner and Make UK. They both have access to a large number of experts in employment law and that's good enough for me.

    Maybe not. I've never been great at making things clear at a simple level - that's why I usually leave it to others.

    As I've said, not eating between 8 and 4 is fine, nobody has ever suggested that's a problem.

    And I wouldn't police it. If they told me they weren't going to eat or drink from 4am until 11pm then I wouldn't let them put people at risk.

    Well with Ramadan, it's obvious because people tell you they're going to do it. In the summer months, it can be dangerous - even the likes of Croner and Make UK have legal experts that will back you on that.

    Depends on the timing. Not eating between 8 and 4 is ok. Not eating between dawn and dusk in the summer can be dangerous. Just like is someone comes in after a night out, I'd assess how capable they are of working safely. If they told me on a Tuesday they would be out drinking until 4am that...

    It's not easy explaining simple concepts to those who cannot/will not understand.

    Tories have never had to tactical vote (at least not in the last half a century). It will be interesting to see if many can bring themselves to vote for a "third" party in order to keep that ruinous coalition out.

    I'm not sure falsehood should be the automatic assumption when one doesn't understand a simple premise. Of course they could have just not fasted at any point and of course I would require anyone to take leave if they hadn't. The conversation was about those who insisted on acting in a...

    Well it cost somebody £1B. But I suppose that's the price of hosting a World Cup nowadays.
