Morgan Stanley is to create 600 new jobs in Glasgow City Centre.  These are PROPER senior jobs, paying a minimum of £30k.  Morgan Stanley will pay out £6m in Salaries in the first 4 months alone...

 

The Scottish Executive gave them £6m pounds to persuade them to do this, because Glasgow is an EU 'assisted' area.

 

What angle does the Scotish Press take (I read a Scotsman and Sun to see today) ?  That its a disgrace that taxpayers money is being wasted on something like this!

 

ARGH!!!!  Create jobs.  Create tax payers.  Create economy!  Create more jobs....  its a no-brainer.

 

As the Jeep’s engine revved and the passenger started chucking the petrol containers out the windows like he was Santa in Shettleston, one man stepped in to help The Law take control.

 

Little did he know, as he happily dragged on his fag, that two crazed al-Qaeda operatives were preparing to meet their maker. But they didn’t meet their maker. Instead they met BAA’s answer to Jack Bauer.

 

Those hapless al-Qaeda boys were to find out that Glasgow has no respect for international terrorism. Nobody gets between 10,000 Weegies and a £99 week in Ibiza booked on Thursday night through Barrhead Travel.
