Guest Posted December 4, 2023 Share Posted December 4, 2023 2 hours ago, Axe said: Too many families are too selfish and too lazy which is why there is a problem regarding social care. Families should look after their own and not rely on social care. It is a disgrace that immigration is supported to justify British born people not pulling their own weight in sectors such as social care and agriculture. Once again, you are judging people who you don't know, who's state of health you don't know, and whose circumstances you don't know. How do you know that they are "too selfish and too lazy" ? You seem to be quite happy for pay for able bodied royals to be looked after and waited upon hand and foot. If we can care for them, because they're lazy, then we can care for ordinary people.

Some people don't know their rights, don't know how to raise an official complaint and are fearful of the consequences if they do complain. And care home bosses are hardly likely to wave their hands as if to say "we are breaking the law by paying hard working people less than what they should get legally".

We know it's happening, as evidenced by the Guardian article. It's the extent that we don't know. Civil servants using some formula which I don't understand seem to think that about 350,000 people in the UK were not been paid the NMW in 2022 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if the publicity had anything to do with the workers being paid correctly? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
