Petition - ask QPR (like Chelsea) to pay a living wage to all their employees

[Manx Hoop]

Where do the corporations get the money from to pay all these wonderful wages, price rises, so we pay anyway peter, so if all the minimum wage workers get a pay rise, they too all pay more for goods services and utilities, and the pay rise is inflationed away, see thats the way things work.

If they could be forced to pay the living wage ,the money would come from their f ucking huge profits
And while we are at it ,all the time you " pay your tax " by doing bird , you are poncing even more off the rest of us ,by
1 ,not paying tax in the first place and then
,2 us ,paying for your stay in HMP.
So its a bit rich you ,talking about what WE pay ,when you`re poncing of US.
( anyone who dosnt get what i`m on about should read Manx`s previous posts on paying tax in the isle of man .)

My tax's even if i did pay them are to a different countries government than yours, however the monies i payed in VAT on materials and goods went direct to her maj, so you did alright out of this foreigner, so infact it is you who has 'ponced' of me.

The rest is ####ed up working class union nonesense, and is why your country produces nothing.

Manx thats the same argument people used back in the 30's when the government brought in the first weeks paid holiday for workers

In the long run it might cost us all a few bob a week but isnt that a price worth paying for a better society, at the moment its you and me that are paying anyway by making up the difference through benefits while big business is not really contributing.

I agree peter, but most of your country is owned by foriegn interests, and they dont care how you live, they just want to milk you hard, even if it makes you bleed, successive governments of both stripes have sold you out m8.

The financial sector.

you say that ,then have a pop at working class unions ?????
so who do you think should represent the the working man ? We ,would be so f ucked without the trade unions
Its such a shame the whole Thatcherite mentality has turned us on each other ( which it was always intended to do )

[vespa]

The financial sector.

No mate ,i did and any other tax payer

[Manx Hoop]

You know something vespa i may have been a bit previous with my union comment, im working class, like you i just learnt the self employed working mans local way of 'beating the man', and in the end i suppose thats all unionism is, beating the man.

The financial sector.

I didnt realise the isle of man had its own financial sector...........

Its why we have 50k londoners running it vespa its why we are the minority, anyway, no need to personal, as they say its only money.

I think the British are an ingenious outfit vespa, even tho i knock them relentlessly, i think the genious is in small business's, i can see you leaving europe, closing your borders, and growing your country to meet its populations expectations jobs wise, but it will have nothing to do with unionism, but will power and inventiveness, i can see shale gas giving you a chance of producing tangible exports.

i`m biased because as most people on here know ,i`m an active union member, i just want to stand up for and keep ,the hard fought for rights of my fellow working man
I am well aware of where ive come from ,and i strongly believe in the power of the unions and the working class as a whole, i know Thatcher`s reign is major blow to the working class in my lifetime but hopefully its just a blip in the longterm struggle of the average working man

I grew up my teenage and early 20s during the class war, never part of it, only government unions here, but i suppose im a media child, as in i probably only remember the media i was fed, mixed with hindsight, a jumble of right and wrong impressions i suppose, i was left with the over-riding impression that unions were destructive in industry atleast, but im old enough to realise how effective the media can be, before you realise what media really is.
All that one man one job stuff.

How about a living price for the food and drink charges?
