The fact is this country has a good record on workers rights and we usually go further than the basic guidelines laid out by the EU. Apart from scare mongering and conspiracy theories what do you base your scepticism on?
The fact that we no longer have an active democracy, we have a by-default Tory government for the forseeable future, and the Tories have made it abundantly clear in MANY ways over the last 8 years that they have very little interest in work/life balance and are only interested in seeing people live to work. I can't think of any reason that this is likely to change? In fact, there has been plenty of Tory admiration for China of all places, a country that aggressively schools its children to the point of depression and then works them into the ground for peanuts as soon as they hit adulthood.
