Isn't there also a known contingent of people who for any set of questions will answer all or most with deliberately silly responses for their own amusement.

Nilbop posted:I've literally said aloud "I'm glad I emigrated" four times this week and it's only Thursday. I wonder where they're gonna get all these 'agency workers' from. Anyone with the training and skills would already be doing the job. Foreign workers are difficult to hire even if you want to and it's politically inconvenient to start poaching professionals from abroad unless they're planning to use Ukrainians.

Unemployment is low because all the agency worker train drivers are gainfully employed via contracts to do as many hours train driving as they are qualified to do. 0.

Barry Foster posted:That's encouraging Lived in a flat share with dodgy electrics in my 20s with 7 other people. At one point, there were so many adaptors trailing off one socket in the living room that if all the appliances had been put on at once (not unlikely) there could easily be a fire especially with the leaky bottled gas heater in the room. I pleaded that they connect no more than 3kW to one wall outlet (so a kettle OR an iron OR a heater plus one other thing eg tv). I was accused of being "a snob with my watts".

Convex posted:this will make sense once the 'unemployed must do free agency work or be perma-sanctioned' bill gets signed It’s this. I’m convinced of it. And the next step will be ‘striking is legally indistinguishable from resigning’ meaning that striking workers will lose their NI contributions, be classified as legally unemployed, and then face sanctions because they were unemployed but didn’t immediately redeploy to temp agencies. I remember that the companies that provide agency workers were against this move. What happens when governments and/or companies with striking workers can’t find agencies to fill the gaps because the agencies have no one to give? It’s obvious of course. There’ll be a rise of agencies run by someone called Cockham Shitebag-Torycunt who’ll provide bodies on zero hour contracts for less than minimum wage and the poor fucks on the sharp end will kill people.

After paying for a year last August, she cancelled her annual DD in September 2021. But as she didn't contact membership to say she had quit, and as her last payment covered up until this August, the first LP will know about it is when the DD they go to take this year will fail and she will be 'in arrears' until finally coming off the books in Feb 2023.

Jeherrin posted:I remember that the companies that provide agency workers were against this move. What happens when governments and/or companies with striking workers can’t find agencies to fill the gaps because the agencies have no one to give? Nothing will happen. The Tories are just saying "Look, we're doing a thing. We're doing it because people are striking." Then, when there's a strike and there aren't the skilled workers to fill the roles, Kwarteng (or whoever) will walk out and say "We did a thing. We did it because people are striking" and then walk away, and the BBC article written by a Political Editor who definitely wasn't a member of the Young Tories two decades ago, will read "The Government said that they had introduced legislation to make it legal for agencies to recruit staff to work these jobs during a strike. It's unclear why the agencies aren't doing this."

Private Speech posted:Just saw an article titled "Mario Draghi resigns, plunging Italy into political turmoil" and all I could think was where are the articles about Britain plunging into political turmoil. they did a cash4ash thing with renovations, 110% of total renovation cost deducted from your taxes this is obviously a very stupid way of doing things since it benefits you the more money you have on hand and gives nothing to low income or renter households, but as soon as it was clear there's no upper limit or checks that the renovations were necessary for the efficiency deduction you're claiming, they lost the entire thirty billion euros in eighteen months. Draghi apparently chose to nuke the government the second there was any disagreement about what to do next

I was curious about this new trade union legislation and how it affects Wales, because as far as I was aware this sort of thing would be devolved, and, well… quote:Striking workers in Wales will also be affected by the new law, despite the Senedd passing the Trade Union Wales Act which prohibited using temporary workers to cover industrial action, in 2017. So just another example of the way the country is ‘supposed’ to work totally falling apart then. Lovely stuff.
