Lord Ferguson Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 Whilst on the subject of immigrants, whats annoyed me is the fact that all the Portugese that Bernard Matthews have layed off are getting ?19.10 a day in compensation, no doubt they are getting unemployment benefit at the minute as well because of it and yet they are complaining that they are being ill treated and it is not enough to live on. Well in my eyes tough luck, its better than what a lot of people get when they are laid off or made redundant, its still near enough ?100 a week in compensation, they say they will have to go back home to work, well let them, my towns full of his workers, they even have their own cafes where if you go in they fall silent and glare at you > > Umm... I think "lay off money" means they still have their jobs Gav... they should not be getting any other benefits I don't think... "Lay off money" is a payment set down by the government (it was ?15 a day last time I looked) when a company has no immediate work... but seeks to retain it's staff I would imagine that employment law means they will have to pay a suitable amount of lay off before they can make redundancies Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tractorman810 Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 I've just read in the local paper that a local woman (well about 8 miles away) has had her ten pet rabbits stolen from a locked shed, they found the animals intestines etc in the garden and can only assume they were stolen for food by someone, most likely some imigrants as the area where it happened has a high concentration of them living there..... What is the world coming to? > > > ther was a local lady down here came out the other morn to find someone had got both ehr rabbits out of the hutch, broke their necks and mounted them on 2 broom handels in the garden, prob was her young kiddy saw it as well, seriously need to find them and let then get mounted on broom handels Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
