    What is it with public "servants" and "webinars"? HMRC are at it too!

    I find them a real turn-off and prefer things to be put in writing for reference when required - but then, when I went to school, over 60 years ago, we were taught how to read (and write, and count) properly and understand what we were reading. TV didn't start until Children's Hour at 5.00 pm, so if it was raining, we read.

    Looks like the younger generations didn't get such a good education if they can't write in plain English, using proper grammar, and understand what is written.

    Perhaps a bit of classroom discipline and even corporal punishment would have helped? It certainly ensured we had a quiet respectful environment in which we COULD learn - with parents who helped teachers maintain such an environment.

    The need for "webinars" is yet another symptom of how molly coddling the young and the current "woke" culture does them no favours!

    I also find webinars and zoom meetings a waste of time let's have it in good old print so we can read it, and refer back to it as needed

    Because they never have to respond to the tough questions.
    It is a way to be seen busy, but never accountable.

    I wonder why!

    In other words "give us your property and we will tell you how to deal with the crap tenants we put in, and the ensuing barrel load of aggro thereafter"
    No thanks.....
