The thing about this case is that there was neonatal unit with a lot of deaths. It suited management for this to be because of an evil murderer that nobody could have anticipated rather than it generally being a badly run facility with slack practice generally.

Its pretty horrific, the police went forward charging her on the basis of consultants she worked with...ie people who themselves could be suspect AND responsible for the medical care.

That's the Oasis excuse, someone as big as him can have a say, if he wants to

Family member all over this..£725 for VIP? Couple of news outlets quoting this (seems to be coming from GB News, famed for pushing the arts in fairness).
Dynamic pricing was always coming after it reeped dividends in America.  Oasis absolutely fleeced their fans, so the music suits will push this as much as they can. On the flip side you've the Cure..promoter went with dynamic pricing unbeknownst to the band. Once aware,fans were reimbursed

No doubt  many idiots will pay it

If youre willing to pay 725 for a concert, you deserve  to be fleeced

Really? How so?

Do they get to spend  the night with him after?  Does he  go home with them and power  wash their  drive or  put up a few shelves for that £725?

It's a choice. Nobody is buying a ticket and then being asked unawares for 725 quid. They are entering into a transaction with the costs fully transparent.

It's all relative, some peoples £750 is someone else's £50 

I honestly wouldn't miss a concert at a big stadium type, worked a few of them over the years but would prefer a venue the size of Ulster Hall or Custom house size, which is why I'm going to the Paul Weller concert in the summer.
