Ironic though how the linked story also highlights the point I made previously on post #19
Is pretty much word for word with what I previously said
The report doesnt seem to mention what share the UK has of Nissan's entire component sourcing - ie how much of the car is sourced from the UK compared to still being imported from elsewhere, although I suspect the use of the word ';significant' suggests that it may still be considerable.”

When they ban zero hours, don't you just think employers will work around it with 1 hour, 5 hour or some other part time or non guaranteed work. Many students and older people actually like them, exlusive zero hours are banned now and surely a more full labour market will lead to employers having to compete more to get staff and to compete more for good people. 70% of all the jobs people have got in the last 2 years have been full time employment.
I'm fed up of hearing the same moaners spouting broken Britain, same old zero hours nonsense and this and that. The evidence of progress is in this thread, the grass is not greener anywhere else in Europe right now, we've got twice the GDP growth of Germany, the fastest growing economy in Europe, a car industry back to pre2008 productivity and seeing big investment and growth.
