“Who cares, jennyhomes? Who cares??? Really?
Well, every one of the reported 4190 staff who will fear for their jobs. Probably their families, too.
Who should care? Everyone! I'd offer a few good reasons why, but I doubt it will make any difference to you. Apparently, if it doesn't directly affect you, it doesn't matter.”
