They could not have been more wrong if all the RMT leaders had PhDs in wrongness.
Between that level of stupidity from a supposed worker supporting organisation and the Tory govt. It's no wonder we're in the state we're in....

God they got that completely arse about face didn't they? I'm absolutely in favour of trade unions in principle but how do they manage to be so completely useless? They're like certain sexual practices which seem like a really good idea but which just end up being absolutely terrible or even in some cases actively harming the members.

Just goes to show everyone voted for their own version of Brexit.
A binary vote without a secondary confirmation vote was stupid.

A secondary vote supported by hard-line brexiteers!

Even the agency workers are pee’d off.
They didn’t realise what they had signed up for.

It really is, but let's put the mechanics to one side for a moment and consider this 👇

Tiresome repeatment of the same arguments, nope other topic.
P&O has used the bail out money to pay out million to it's stakeholders/investors.. Therefore on paper the P&O shipping company makes a giant loss, enabling the management to fire all it's staff and claim it's ''needed'' but if you and i or anything else did the same thing on our tax claim form we're charged with fraud.
It's because our overly competent government that things like this happen.
Not saying that the Dutch government is the best in the world far from, but Booking.com did the same thing(they didn't come to firing all employees yet, but it started with ''legalized'' fraud with P&O too) and this is what happened:

Rather than claiming I'm repeating the same arguments, perhaps you'd like to address the promises made by the people that championed Brexit in the snippets I posted, and point out where I, as opposed to they, were wrong?
Now you're getting it.

Are P&O, by any chance, Tory party donors? 🤔

I responded in the brexit thread, tiresome to those very same arguments every single time, it not about that, i gave you an example of how a on paper ''dutch'' company felt forced to repay their bailout fund after dumping thousands of employes and paying an bonus to their CEO's
Same situation different country and no there is no such thing as a ''Nexit'' so your argument that it's due to Brexit is simply not correct. Maybe P&O pays back their bail-out money too if no.10 says they consider an ''investigation'' like their dutch counterparts did.(that's right just the announcement they considered an investigation was enough)

Or has the Tory party prime minister recently been begging Dubai for oil without saying what he was offering in return?
