He's after the NL vote.<br /><br />However, in one sense he is really on to something. The discrimination laws and Harmans appalling Equalities Act are some of the most egregious bits of social engineering that give opportunity to bureaucrats to capitalise on vexatious claims by similarly opportunistic con-persons.<br /><br />I was talking to an FCA apparatchik the other day about the Public Interest Disclosure Act that is being exploited by disgruntled ex-employees in increasing their chances of success of a dismissal claim against a former employer on the basis that they were let go because they were about to / had made a public interest disclosure.<br /><br />Given that he might capture fed up employers and fed up 'British Workers', this might be very clever electioneering indeed.<br /><br />More worryingly you should have Edie Mayers NF hatchet job on the 'neutral' and 'balanced' BBC yesterday evening.Lolahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04586735342675041312noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1141932539860553199.post-79285657266062467712015-03-13T07:59:44.248+00:002015-03-13T07:59:44.248+00:00"What's Farage's imaginary situation ...<i>"What's Farage's imaginary situation here?"</i><br /><br />Good question, not even he knows that.<br /><br />Why didn't he just say <i>"We are going to tear up all these laws about political correctness and quotas, we want employers to employ who they think best"</i>?<br /><br />He didn't say that because then employers would say <i>"Thanks Nigel, does that mean we can ship in a load of foreigners, who are either better skilled or will accept lower pay than British workers?"</i><br /><br />So all his situations are highly imaginary.Mark Wadsworthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07733511175178098449noreply@blogger.com
