Best test for the new PM. Bend now and the Unions will have you in their pocket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do these folk being recruited from poorer countries have the same training, schools, work experience and so forth that would be the same as the UK employees? Even if they have similar training, they won't be skilled in using all the equipment that a rich country such as the UK has. We will just take whoever we can get.

No dodgy accountants finding fancy loopholes, no hiving off huge amounts to the Cayman islands. etc. And that means rewriting a lot of the legislation, and custodial sentences for miscreants. A basic allowance will favour the poor, which is my whole point. Some people expect the rich to pay more, which is why we have a democracy.

sheffbag Posted September 10 Share Posted September 10 Well at least 1 Labour MP had the balls to vote against the motion, That will be him suspended soon no doubt. 348 to 228 with 53 Labour MPs abstaining and a further 2 who were recently suspended abstaining too 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crookesey Posted September 10 Share Posted September 10 It’s probably too much to ask Labour voters to recall what their party did to OAP’s when they next vote. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_DADDY Posted September 10 Share Posted September 10 I utterly DESPISE Liarbour for this. Kier Stalin needs to go and any mp who voted for this needs to be gone too. 'Great' Britain? No, we aren't. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cressida Posted September 10 Share Posted September 10 Bunch of cowards, integrity seriously lacking. Telling MPs to abstain not good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
