PM and workers row
Story link: PM and workers row
As mentioned in a previous post, the UK is a fairly open economy, with fair and equal rights meaning no one has the right to discriminate another individual under any circumstances.
The only criteria for employment should be the skill set an individual holds.
The Prime Minister was accused of “inflaming” the increasingly bitter dispute over foreign labour after he condemned the outbreak of wild-cat strikes as “indefensible”.
Paul Kenny, General Secretary of the GMB union urged the government to do more to try to resolve the row rather than “blame” British workers.
