You've earnt it Dezza. Saviour of the industry!
I would'nt go as far as saying that Alex but fair play to him - he's the boss so he can do what he wants!
Slightly disingenuous comment to be honest; the downturn in performance across the Express titles is worrying (even if you're not a fan of Diana conspiracy stories). There's a credible argument for investing money in your company's resources, employees, new technology etc.
