    Rayner’s low IQ costing the economy billions already.

    The bar for labour was incredibly low, yet so far they are worse than even I could have ever imagined.

    Good P&O can **** right off.

    "In March 2022, P&O caused huge controversy by sacking 800 British seafarers and replacing them with cheaper, largely foreign workers, a move it said was required to prevent the company from collapsing"

    If there's a profit in the investment DP World will go ahead or A.N. Other will step in.

    P&O are an appalling company, even Grant Schapps was horrified by their treatment of the crews they summarily dismissed over a Zoom call.

    I'd lay bets that Grant Schapps (and quite likely many other troughers on both sides of the commons couldn't give a flying **** about their treatment but it was something good they could get their teeth into. Said it a long time. No-one cared about this issue in 2016. I basically said the same thing had happened in the food production sector but because farmers and farmer's co-op spokespeople say on the BBC "British workers won't do this work" people believed that instead!

    P&O do it = bad
    Fruit pickers do it = no they didn't because they said they didn't on TV.

    FACT: 2004 onward this happened across the board. Only took till 2006 in my factory to go from 99% Brits to 90% EU migrant workforces.

    You’re so dumb. Honestly.

    This is exactly what will happen. The British economy is already suffering. And you lefty morons want to tip it off a cliff

    Didn’t you vote Leave? I think that pretty much disqualifies you from being taken seriously on economic matters tbh.

    No. I voted to remain. But if the choice came up again now I would vote to leave.

    Okay. So you’ve become progressively more mental over time. I thought that might have been the case, but thanks for confirming

    “Anyone with a different is mental”. Classic low IQ response

    I didn’t fully realise the extent of the corruption within the EU institution back then. I now understand why people voted to leave, and I agree with their reasoning.

    In my opinion now, the risk of leaving is worth it when compared with the alternative. I voted to remain as I was scared of people losing their jobs. But now I understand that staying in the EU will cause more long term harm to the UK than leaving.

    We need to be out of the clutches of faceless, commy bureaucrats. These pen pushing middle managers are the antithesis of growth and a strong country. I hold them in the same esteem as I hold labour.

    I don’t want to be governed by career politicians with no experience of the real world, business or success. Unfortunately this sums up both labour and the EU.

    Os, you can't roll out that first line without realising that you're saying "Anyone with a different opinion has a low IQ".

    Added to which, if you're going to (wrongly) accuse people of low IQ, it's always best to proof read what you've written first. Your preceding quote doesn't actually make sense there...

    ps. Excluding the first line
