'UK carry on going to work.... because of brexit'
Funnily enough the company my brother works for are altering his contract, whereby the company can force their staff to work 52 hour weeks but only pay them for 38 hours  And people can't fathom why I canna be bothered with this country anymore |
|
By:
And that above regarding the 52 hours only being paid for 38 hours isn't a pi** take either, its the gods honest truth
|
|
By:
So if they sign this contract the company can demand they come in for extra hours pay free, and if they refuse they will be sacked
  Like I said to my brother, when are the people of this nation going to grow a bas**** spine and stick up for themselves? |
|
By:
Oh and if they don't sign it
Bye bye!!! I just can't wrap my head around the people of this country, spineless and pathetic doesn't do them justice ffs |
|
By:

My brother is signing it though I don't think we have unions left though, the country is fu****g bonkers |

All that matters to people in this country injera is what's on TV, what time the clubs open and what Beth put on Facebook
I can take people being asleep to it, if they are ignorant to it then fine, but they can be woken. but I can't take people being woke to it and just not doing a damn thing about it out of sheer spinelessness and cowardice, or out of sheer bloody laziness. They'll moan but they don't wanna stick two fingers up to the government and down tools? "we need money" |

It's when tissues are rationed due to Brexit that the teenage male demographic will take their Brexit anger onto the streets.

Remainers are to start bottling air - in case the EU starve them of oxygen (the element, not the metaphor of publicity)!

By:
does your brother not get the extra hours back in lieu instead of pay?
|

children not able to sleep after hearing stories from 'uncle' Barnier!!!

By:
anyone noticed how many birdies have flown away - very few in the trees around here!!! They sure are right about this nasty brexit - I blame Boris.
|
|
By:
I know someone in your brothers situation Sontaran, they are given near impossible "deadlines and timescales" concerning their work,nigh on impossible and what happens is the extra hours are not paid but classified as "toil", they can take days off on the back of that but the person i know could probably have months off which wouldn't be allowed.

There are people who have the attitude that football only began with the Premier League. It would appear of late that there are plenty out there who believe the UK only began with the EU. Get some history books distributed; there'll be amazement when the yoof discover what this country used to achieve on a regular basis.

That was BAD britain. Anything Britain did before joining the EU was imperialist and wrong, everything since joining the EU is fantastic, we're now going to become racist imperialists again. Just ask that ginger Green "politician" and the other pre pubescent products of SJW indoctrination in Momentum. (Outside of the ones who DO want to leave the EU so they aren't constrained in creating an oppresive socialist state).

Churchill was definitely nasty (sometimes) did you see what he did to hitler. ho ho
I think everyone had given up until they had a go at stalin we were on our own for a time and it was churchill who stuck at it. All the rest (including people in the uk) were desperately learning how to speak german. |

It's not 1946 anymore, the world is a vastly different place. Britain is no longer at the top table, especially as a stand alone entity.
|
|
By:
ah look here's another UK hater - you carry on with the negative propaganda from your masters in brussels
come back when you have something positive to say |
|
By:
Here was me thinking the UK was the 5th biggest economy in the world. Maybe there's another top table for Guardian readers.
|
|
By:
Yes and the 5th biggest economy doesn't cut it for the major players, especially one that isn't an emerging market thus no large growth is expected.
The major players basically are the US, China, EU economically. The UK isn't remotely in the same bracket. The empire is gone, we don't have control over a quarter of the globe anymore. Hence why the only post-Brexit plan is basically to become a vassal state of the USA. |
|
By:
On top of that we aren't resource rich like say Saudi Arabia where countries need to business with us out of necessity.
|
|
By:
LOL you believe that. I should save it for when the Chinese debt bubble crashes sucking asia with it, which is coming.

Remember I am dealing with the real world, not the cuckoo made up fantasy land that Brexiteers believe exists, but we're still awaiting to emerge. After all the deal with the EU was the worlds easiest deal and we'd get what we want, and the countries would be queuing up to do business with us. All going just to plan isn't it.

No it isn't and it won't all the time your pals Blair, Mandelson, Major, et all garner the frequent flyer points to Brussells and keep briefing against their own country. I mean it's bad enough we've got the most iredeemably useless PM in history - someone i'm pretty sure Audley Harrison could take on in a fist-fight - negotiating (used that word for handy reference purposes) for the UK, without these herberts getting involved |
|
By:
Always someone elses fault isn't. Not the fault of the people who had no actual plan to carry out Brexit and scuttled before the first hurdle. Anyone can throw darts from outside when they know they aren't true, as they realise simple slogans con the masses, but they know they would fail in power hence why they didn't want it.
|
|
By:
We can't do business deals with the rest of the world while tied to the EU either now or under terms of the remporary agreement. Try joining the real world.
|
|
By:
Well on that we can agree
I hold Johnson, Gove, Fox, Davies etc with as much contempt as I hold May and the civil service apparatchicks running this fiasco. They had a rock-solid mandate from the nation and just needed to articulate a bold vision of post-Brexit Britain based on soveriegnty rather than (just) 'The Deal' or immigration, then got on with leaving under WTO rules, and challenge the EU to do better. What did they do? Bottle it and become sideline quarterbacks. Unfortunately, for all of us, yes it is always someone elses fault, but that's something of a meaningless phrase isn't it, since none of us have power and increasingly, any belief in democracy and politicians. Bit like Remainers refusing to own the fact they're conservative (small'c') and scared. |
|
By:
Yes but blaming "remainers" is just a cop out. What have the remainers really done. Stop May's deal that the majority of leavers don't support, so they've done you a favour if anything. If it wasn't for them May would have been able to do what she likes and we'd have been stuck with her bodge job.
The leavers don't even unite under the same banner, a big problem in itself. |
