Its time negotiations started between the government and the robbing ba----ds that put a little into rover a few years ago and are now walking away from the sinking ship with their pockets lined with millions.

Am I reading this right? £6.6m is one weeks wages for 5300 staff? That's well over £1200 quid a week average! A lot of folk would be happy with that much a month!

No tears from me!

BTY if it wasn't for the election the politicians wouldn't care either.
They also seem to have conveniently forgotton
a) who let Phoenix buy it in the first place and
b) how much money we have had to fork out already to keep it afloat.
