I do not agree with all you said.
The Unions certainly helped in bringing industry to its knees although I do agree with you that under investment and bad management were key factors too.
There may be one or two workers rights being stripped away but equally there are other rights coming in to help them. The minimum wage being a welcome addition.
I am surrounded by people who do not want to work even though they could and are happy to sit on social welfare. There is no incentive for them to work as they get as much for doing nothing.
Immigrants in the UK work so much harder than the indigenous population, and yet the Brex<deleted>eers wanted them out, now we have food rotting and our fields, not enough truck drivers to move things and a lack of nurses to look after our sick... The list is endless.
"Yes there are about 1.3million vacancies in the UK right now, there is also inflation."
I don't understand why you put these in the same sentence.
I also don't understand why you say inflation came before pay increases. Inflation is with us most of the time, except when there is a recession, so are pay increases ????????
