Employment lawyer, Oldham Athletic fan, cricket mum. Crossing the streams on here so the UK employment law community can hear me whinging about life in the Vanarama League whilst #OAFC aficionados soak up content on the Employment Rights Bill.

I’m getting fed up of getting little to no 4/5g signal. Currently on giffgaff, which uses 02 network. Considering switch to leaves, which uses Vodafone. Anyone any experience of whether it’s any better?
