Italian Workers take UK contract

A Italian Worker gives his viewpoint with a Finger
on the right cover of this paper.



On Radio 5
a UK Union worker said
they had all the workers who can do the same job
ready.

But ,of course,
with these €uro workers
the company saves bigger money.




Sign Of The Times.

No it is Not.



Just these Nasty Finger Up type
Italian Workers.



This is a serious debate
Strikes are now on because of this.
800 now on strike outside a Total base.


Check it out on TV news and Radio News.


Update: 1815:
That Photo on the Newspaper image
was just shown on BBC National News.

They Got rid of 250 english workers to bring in italian ones for cheaper?

Is that right? Either way they just put the english out of more work!

The Total Company
claims it pays them the same wage.
But there is a Tax fiddle permitted.

I also think
you can never find the true rates.


As a simple Example
if you buy from Amazon, HMV or Play.com
all based in Guernsey
you pay less as all The Tax is taken off.




Anyway
local UK staff can do that work
so why is Our 'Scottish' PM not helping this?

... Gordon Brown said, "British jobs for British workers!"

Yes Brown says that a great deal
but on this he will not say a word
unless Petrol is held up, of course.

andyman 29-01-2009 08:57 PM

Great idea! Hold up the petrol!

This is our country and our government are flogging us down the river! How dare this happen.

Strikes are spreading.

So sooner or later
Mr.Bristish Jobs for British Workers - PM Brown
will have to say something
even from Davos, if he wants.


A regional officer for Unite in Scotland, said
"The argument is not against foreign workers, it's against foreign
companies discriminating against British labour"

arista 30-01-2009 05:15 PM

The Total CEO
went on Radio 5 live
he said they are paid the same.

He also said they (IRM company) are the best to do that job.


So he must be saying that
UK workers are not up to that kind of work.
(On the Wright Stuff ,ch5, this morning
a women from Denmark phoned in to say just that
but lost her nerve and paused
so Matt cut her off.)



He has broken no €uro Laws
so PM Brown will do nothing
unless they get Petrol held at Ransom.



The Men outside that Total plant
say they can do the same work.

The british people treated like scum in our own country!!

Would this happen anywhere else? No! Feeking european laws and human right laws are a freaking joke!

Matt08 30-01-2009 09:35 PM

This country gets more ****ed up my the day. There are millions of people out of work and they are giving foreigners jobs which British people are capable of doing. The borders need tightening and putting British people into work should be prioritized.

It's about time people started to stand up to this Government. If they'd taken more care of the country during the boom years then we'd have never been in such a big mess now.

andyman 30-01-2009 09:52 PM

Problem is that the government won't ban workers comming from overseas into our country, europe bs we have signed, plus we have british workers overseas...

If people from the EU come over then the Government should still ensure that British workers come first when it comes to finding a job. Joining the EU is probably one of the worst decisions this country ever made.

We'd be much better off out of it, and there would be more freedom to control borders more fiercely and decide on new laws etc.

andyman 30-01-2009 10:18 PM

The EU has many flaws... One of them is laws being made by people we have not elected and dont know, a faceless government that will sht all over the UK!

The EU have even made the UK change many working rules!

And right now we have a non-elect PM that lied to the uk people for years about the state of our country, a country living on credit!

Saturday 31-jan-09 Papers on this.

Fom 30-01-2009 10:44 PM

I am sure the UK had plans to leave the EU... we need to be more independent. It does annoy me when I see polish and italians working in our shops when there is such a problem with jobs at the moment. The last thing we need is people coming from oversea's taking jobs when we cant supply enough jobs for our country as it is.
With shops closing and people losing jobs, we don't need italians coming in and taking them. I am quite against the current immigration laws, too many flaws.

arista 30-01-2009 10:49 PM

Fom


This contract is a special deal
Made by Yanks who picked the Italian Crew.

Yes Brown said we could Vote on the Euro
then got scared.


On Sky news
they say some Irish now want
out of the Euro
as it is not working now.

Matt08 30-01-2009 10:55 PM

There should be more pressure on businesses to employ British people at the moment rather than foreigners, we need to sort our own people's finances out and not foreigners who have come over here to work.

The only reason I can think of as to why a business would want to employ foreigners is because they can pay them less money. Ever since immigration got out of control, I expect a lot of people's wages have gone down because of the foreign workers who they can pay less.

This country really has gone **** up!

andyman 30-01-2009 10:56 PM

Plus many send money back home... I've spoken to many!

And many get free phone top ups and a bus pass and DO jump the nhs waiting list and housing list...

UK is such a soft touch, but this is what the left-wing nut jobs want!

:bored: I HATE it how some of them are given special privileges. Then you get some of the other's who get their UK visa's or citizenships and then will work for a while and then leave and claim benefits.

Thats why they want to come to the uk... They know their rights and then act dumb when in the uk! Sick!
Plus many drive cars without a valid licence and when stopped they put on on the i dont understand english bs! But they understand freaking english when its to claim benefits and other benefits that the uk people cant have because we live in our own freaking country!
Many gangs have came over aswell and the underground world has changed, not like it was good in the first place! Lol, but still many have slipped through the net.

arista 30-01-2009 11:11 PM

This is the Problem
this crew of workers live on a Floating Prison type ship
but they are working on a legal backed contract.

"The Business Secretary inflamed the
dispute over foreign workers
by suggesting that protesters
could go and work elsewhere
in Europe if they were unhappy."




Vert typical of New Labour's Mandy
telling the UK staff to go and get a job in Europe.

The Fire has now started.
