• Thank you very much | Diolch yn fawr

    All at JackArmy.net would like to thank everyone who has played a part on this site over the past 25 years whether that is through writing, contributing, moderating, posting or just visting and reading.

    Without any of you the work that has gone into the site would have been pointless and we will always be proud that we built, generated and managed a community that was such a big part of the Swansea City supporting life for so long.

    It has been a pleasure to bring to you the site for so long but the time is now right to turn the lights out for the last time but we do it both with a heavy heart and a sense of pride driven by the so many messages received since we announced the closure.

    The site will remain here for a period until we archive and mothball it for the last time later this summer but all aspects are in a read only format.

    Thank you though for all the memories

    Phil Sumbler
    Owner, jackarmy.net

Just WTF!

Oh I wouldn’t believe a fraction of what you read these days, my friend.

Is there a backlog there, of many aspects of what the dvla do, this is coming off the main news channels mind.

Yes.

Welcome. So why do you think they should be sacked?

The upper management to let it get to a state it's in now.

Oh right. That’s a hot take but you’re entitled to your view I suppose.

He’s got a point mind. Effectiveness, morale and productivity would improve in general if all managers were put out to grass.

I have a mortgage to pay man. Have a heart.

Ok, just no decisions though. No blue sky thinking, no getting out of your box and comfort zone, no transformational change, and no reimagining. Definitely no reimagining.

Sounds fair. I hate those wanky meaningless terms anyway.

You need to reimagine them.

It's not really a hot take though is it? Many people are suffering from the inadequacies of the dvla. It's just not good enough, and that's putting it politely.

Sacking them all would definitely help then...

The backlog is caused by a strike. Workers are on strike because conditions during the pandemic were so loose someone died after an outbreak at the DVLA. The Union and the department for transport agreed resolutions to the strike twice. Both resolutions were torpedoed by the Minister Grant Shapps out of political spite. That’s the same Grant Shapps who blamed hauliers for shortages and has caused panic buying.

Instead of blaming the people who work and live in the same city as us, why aren’t we asking more of the people who took the political decisions that have left us in this mess?
