Bonjour all! Well I am now nice and settled in my new job, all is going well....however I have taken over a team that was managed very poorly for a number of years, they have effectively been allowed to run the management as they see fit. Since a new Head of Department has come in he has put the majority of them on performance management, which has worked and thinned out some of them but the hardcore lazy ones remain. I've recently taken over at stage 3 for 2 of my employees (ie they've failed to meet targets agreed/ set with them over a 16 week period) and I am aware that these particular staff like to file malicious grievances against managers when challenged about t…

The current situation in iran is critical, sanctions from the United Nations have been ignored and their campaign has lost all legitimacy.

My question is, Do you think there will be a war with Iran, and will the United Kingdom be involved ?
