So we get mottie posting a link where labour are ditching a workers rights manifesto pledge

Labour ditches day-one protection from unfair dismissal in U-turn

And then all of a sudden notch is agreeing with it saying its a sensible idea

seems like a sensible change to me

when for months he has been banging on about it - how reform would remove rights - how labour are so great for workers rights. -- Look at the state of this lot----

increased workers rights

1) workers rights bill -Reform would slash workers rights
how embarrassing for Aveatry, wrong again.

Labour Party have increased workers rights,
But hey don't let your blind faith and prejudice get interested way of boring facts.

Reform Workers rights will be slashed, and can be sacked on a whim.

So you don’t agree with wanting stronger rights for British workers.

I said it was a shít idea at the time and would harm business. I wrote to Kier and told him. Looks like he's just got around to reading my letter.

Call 'em what you like - I’m talking about people who employ other people and pay them. Businesses basically. Yes, those. You wouldn’t be saying that if you ran a small business, took on an employee who went sick or fùcked you around from day one and you knew you would have a world of grief and expense just trying to get rid of them. This Day 1 rights for employees is a shirkers dream come true.

Labour are making things up as they go along.

Shows they are dynamic, flexible and open minded.

Keeping costs down. Good.

Er NO

they are reacting to the media and public concerns, which they should have anticipated and announced as part of the budget

Yep it’s not far off sensible. Would have preferred it going back to the original 12 months.

6 months means we are still less flexible than many of our neighbours. Unfortunately, it will mean firing people in month 5 who you aren’t 100% on as I occasionally do in other regions.

Correct. It was causing a U.K. hiring freeze with many international companies.

You're trying to compare our employment rights to Europe in general ?

You may not be aware, that many jobs can be done in many locations.

We went from the most flexible to the least flexible in one stupid move. Even Germany has a 6 month probation rule.

 

[carmanmemoranda]

I'm sure you'd prefer the USA system

But workers rights in UK aren't as strong as Europes ( in general)
