The Tory wannabe's don't come near us, as The Laird has a dirty great Saltire flying on the farm lol. They might be wary of farmers with guns and besides they'd get their shiny shoes mucky in the mud.. AND that would never do..

Now my industry we all got 28 days holiday plus bank holidays, as soon as he signed up to an agreement I can't remember the name of he announced great news for workers now you boss has to give you 28 days holiday and they can take all bank holidays out of that 28 days. I overnight lost all my bank holidays and had to save my holiday entitlement for them.
Bringing in so many low paid workers who were thrilled to get £5 an hour brought my wages down too.

I used to get £10-12 an hour I'm on nmw for same jobs now.

Eu really protected us, I'd hate to see what they would do to punish us.

Hi

If you think wages are going to rise in real terms Julie, then think again.

My MP, a leading Brexiteer, is all for letting Market Forces rule, as well as for foxhunting and reduction in tax for the high earners.

I've no doubt about it swim, in the short term they may not rise but if those at the top think they are going to keep us at the bottom quiet much longer they are in for a surprise.

Re: Ashcroft scamming workers.

I'm not as clever as you all on here and probably not as well read and informed on the more intelligent subjects, but I am feeling very frustrated and angry how the well off seem to be taking more and more from the less well off, the poor, sick and old.
It just seems so unfair. It worries me what sort of society we will become as this goes on, and how far will it go.

Everything seems to come down to greed and putting down those who have less. Politicians seem to have forgotten that they are supposed to work for us who pay them, and instead continue to ignore what's going on and just follow the party line.

I suppose after this I will be accused of being a leftie snowflake but its just that there seems to be so much injustice these days.
