Wetherspoons boss Tim Martin needs EU workers to tackle the shortage of bar staff
 





It seems some UK workers do not want
to return to their jobs.

I guess it makes sense an unscrupulous capitalist would support the EU. Birds of a feather and all that.

Serves him right for treating his staff so badly during the pandemic. I guess they took his advice to go elsewhere and are staying now as they get treated better?

He was a big Brexit fan, glad to see that it’s worked out for him :)

No, he was a MASSIVE Brexit-buddy gammon and now he's like "Oh wait a minute, half of my staff were from Europe... come back! Waaaahhh!!"

It's hilarious. Hope they go under, ****ing ****hole.

I didn't realise that, I'd have assumed someone who mistreats their staff and only cares about the bottom line would have been all for the advantages the EU provides to such people. I guess he's reaping what he sowed either way :joker:

They haven't no.
However customers to his establishments help line his pockets further.
So I choose not to that.

He was a Brexit supporter :hee:

that said the pandemic is supposed to have hit young people in the UK the most workwise, so not sure why there is a shortage of workers?

But Brazilians are hot, so it balances out :shrug:

LeatherTrumpet 02-06-2021 08:51 AM

supporting Brexit never meant no immigration from the EU :joker:

it definitely wanted no illegal immigration and better controls on immigration

surely everyone on TIBB wants that?

Liam- 02-06-2021 09:01 AM

If only we could have seen this coming!!

bitontheslide 02-06-2021 09:03 AM

it doesn't really matter if the guy is a brexit supporter or not, he is a complete ass hole. Very unpleasant person, and for him it's very much a case of you reap what you sow

smudgie 02-06-2021 09:04 AM

If he treat his staff the way they deserved then he might find a big difference.
Decent hours for a decent wage, not too much to ask for surely.:shrug:

my thoughts exactly.

thesheriff443 02-06-2021 09:15 AM

If you pay someone minimum wage that’s how much they are valued as a person by all companies.

So what if you leave you can be replaced for under a tenner.

Livia 02-06-2021 09:22 AM

Boycott them. They're awful places anyway.
