Last word from me.

They are paid for by the state. They are not employed by the state. There are many situations where someone derives an income from some body or other but there is no contract of employment. Each of these tends to have its own area of law governing how and when such arrangements can be terminated.

Office Bearer is one of many distinct classifications recognised by HMRC.

Your comparison with people employed by the state is spurious as they arent employees they are office bearers of the state and there are specific rules surrounding how and when they are removed from office.

Thanks for the clarity. Their termination clauses need reviewed in the light of her (and others) behaviour with regard to Covid (and other recent scandals like expenses, kiddie texting and so on).

Definitely needed an article to tell you that imo. I wasn't sure that players might get injured, there's a pandemic that has affected football and the world a wee bit this year and the opposition might win the game.

The Record making a case for Tavernier to be our right back in a year's time as he'll have been here for five years, despite us not using residence as a qualification for eligibility (due to the home nations not being independent separate states).

This dreadfully researched story seems to pop up once every six months or so.
