As you are against the UK controlling its own laws, regarding this topic, and complaining about it, show me what rights have been removed so far...?

Oops, here comes the deflection...and as I said-who said rights have been removed?

Deflection.......????............So you are scaremongering, the UK is now controlling its own laws and I have read nothing about chopping this or chopping that. If they have, you tell us.

 

I am sure we all feel sorry for you, that your country can now use its own laws, which you don't like.....????

The pressure to reduce workers' rights is on: another UK automotive plant will probably close Ellesmere Port factory

Asked about the impact of Brexit and the 2030 ban on internal combustion engines on Stellantis and Vauxhall's operations in particular, he said: “If a government or country creates a situation which destroys our business model by adding customs duty or constraints or bans of the sale of a kind or car … we are going to invest in different directions.

Ellesmere Port’s future has been in question since PSA bought Vauxhall and Opel from GM in 2017.

Scaremongering… Yeah right, all I did was post an article which highlighted the dangers to workers rights and protections. 
 

Something you seem to find funny and to actually welcome…

 

But then again you don’t live in the UK do you?

UK and Europe to declare war on new petrol and diesel car sales

The Boris Johnson-led conservative UK government is set to announce a ban on petrol and diesel cars by 2030, bringing forward its previous target set in February by five years, and the European Union may do so by 2025, according to new reports.

Also in news today, the European Union is reportedly considering implementing stricter laws which would effectively amount to a 2025 ban according to German news site Bild. Norway already has a ban in place from 2025, including of hybrids and plug in hybrids.

If he wants to continue building petrol and diesel engine cars he needs to think about relocating to much futher than Europe as they plan to have a ban in place by 2025

Follow the link and read the story you thought was so great and added your happy clappy to...and no one said do away with.

 

Undermine and weaken yes...not sure anyone is claiming rights will be entirely done away with

So you would have no objections to the tories dismantling workers' rights and protections if these laws had arisen from the EU, is that correct? 

Does a worker on a zero hour contract have any " rights and protections"?

Nice to see how brexiteers feel about the undermining of the rights and protections of those who actually live in the country. 

Rights and protections? That horse bolted years ago thanks to membership to the eu and a weak government at the time.
