As to the article those protections have been in force all the time, before the EU, during etc, they didn't go anywhere. The article also stated this country went further on more recent EU directives on workers rights than was required. You seem to believe all the laws and rights we had before the EU were repealed or went up on a puff of smoke during the time we have been a member and that we have had no part in encouraging or supporting any of the laws on this subject while in the EU. Instead you cling to one bill that didn't get its time in Parliament as absolute proof that the government plans to do workers wrong. The people of this country aren't stupid and do have a voice. The government are not a dictatorship.

' it doesn't fit your anti UK agenda'

Not misquoting you that's what you said word for word, you have taken my concerns and misinterpreted them in your mind as a slur on the UK..
The provision we had didn't go far enough and was replaced on certain issues by the EU, that is a given.

It's not just myself that has concerns regarding the lack of urgency on those matters, several MPS who were present voiced their disgust and it was reported, which is how I came to hear of it.

I didn't suggest anyone was stupid, please don't put words in my mouth.

This is the last comment to you as you are starting to misrepresent what I post and make unwarranted accusations as to my motives.

I could say I've been on the receiving end of that for some time but I'm not going to get into a tit for tat.

Your 'it is a given' is simply not true.

You have a lovely weekend.

Another accusatory post, you have not been on the receiving end of anything from myself on this or any other matter.

It is a given... The EU laws on some issues overwrote our own they are in the link you provided.

Here is another article discussing the fears I have, I would love to have your unwavering faith...But I don't.

Labour will not back a vital piece of Theresa May’s Brexit legislation if it contains sweeping powers allowing ministers to scrap vital workers’ rights, human rights and environmental provisions.

Shadow Brexit Secretary Sir Keir Starmer vowed his party would fight Ms May “all the way” if she tried to use Brexit as an opportunity to adopt the so-called “Henry VIII powers”.

The expected move by the Government would render Parliament almost powerless to stop Tory ministers in post-Brexit Britain from dumping rights previously enshrined in EU law.
In an exclusive interview with The Independent, Sir Keir also revealed how his party would try force the Government to give Parliament more control over Ms May’s Brexit negotiations.'

It is a genuine concern not of only myself but MPs, are they paranoid too?...as we have no concrete assurances, and the chance they had to give an assurance was deliberately bypassed.
Speculation is all we have... for anything, so close any and all debates on brexit as speculation is not a normal natural response to attempt to rationalise what is happening to the country in which we live :/

She would gain subdued debt saddled wage slaves ... you, your kids .. your kids kids.
