£135K - far too much, that's a ripper of a settlement. He'd be well pumped with that result.

I'm not advocating we judge the poor fellow, not until we've let rip in his robes too.

I have to close four pop-ups before I could read the box that tells me I need to subscribe to read the article.

And people spout a lot of hot air about this place.
