Love watching her get absolutely roasted. But what the f*ck made her think she could go down there and hijack the protest in any case? Either it demonstrates just how completely out of touch this government is (was there nobody around her to warn her of the stupidity of attending?) or they have just become so unimaginably cynical that she thought she could gain kudos from associating herself with the sacked seafarers. Either way, not good.
Ye Gods, if that is true, its thoroughly disgraceful. The implications are awful and will be the death knell for P&O anyway as any quality of service, safety etc will plummet. There will be another Herald of Free Enterprise incident. I still say that all staff should go one the sick on Monday. That would bring them to a total standstill.
Do they have any permanent full time crew left to go on the sick?
If that was indeed the case, she has to be incredibly dense (not unusual for this government). I think she probably genuinely believed that her party’s policies benefit “hard working families.” I mean, Partygate aside, wouldn’t they actually have to believe their own bullshit to be able to regurgitate it with a straight face?
The problem is that any talk of improving workers right and conditions is met with an ‘ah, but winter of discontent an all that’, ‘bloody unions’ and we’re back to ‘hard working families’. P&O will soon be forgotten and Elphicke will be re-elected
No you are talking bullshit. It has nothing to do with brexit, neither did the `fire and rehire` at British Gas. I am sick to death of wasting my time as an RMT member for 38 years and a rep, having to respond to people who haven`t got a clue about international maritime practices or our own laws. It seems that there is a lot of hysterical remainers out there, who are making out that the actions of a parasite company, sacking its workforce, is somehow the fault of the Union that represents them. Shipping companies all over the world sail under `flags of convenience ` and pay as little as £2.50 an hour. With no sick pay or paid holidays. So stop talking bullshit. We are fighting for our members, you can side with the people attacking my fellow Union members and we wont forget these people who do this. I ain`t responding on this topic again, its to energy sapping. Thanks to the forum members who are on our side.SOLIDARITY.
Not convinced.Are you sure about that? Leading Brexiteers didn't waste their time and money campaigning to make sacking people harder.
Blaming this and just about everything baaad on brexit is counter productive for your mission. It has been explained by a few people this is nothing to do with brexit. If you want to target your anger you need to concentrate on those who grabbed at any reason they could in order to not vote Labour in 4 x GE’s, many of whom, from they post here would do the same again because they will not learn, nor accept responsibility.Are you sure about that? Leading Brexiteers didn't waste their time and money campaigning to make sacking people harder.
Exactly.
