The drift away from globalism continues. 08:28 - Nov 22 with 3046 views | BanksterDebtSlave | The sound of a penny dropping. Cheap Labour disproportionately affects the poorest in societies at a national level. 'But Starmer has already sparked some discomfort within his own party for earlier comments about overseas staff in the NHS, where he said the health service was “recruiting too many people from overseas” rather than training staff. In the speech on Tuesday, Starmer will double down on the argument, saying: “When we look at our economy as a whole, it can seem like we’re more comfortable hiring people to work in low-paid, insecure, sometimes exploitative contracts than we are investing in the new technology that delivers for workers, productivity and our country. “And we can’t compete like that. Britain’s low-pay model has to go. It doesn’t serve working people. It’s not compatible with grassroots growth.” |  |

Or "Am I enough of a grown up to say I don't need or want any Christmas presents this year?" I might ask for a V/Anonymous mask for Christmas and some apple trees for my birthday in the Spring next year and join this nutter: https://www.thephantomplanter.org/ |
I wouldn't mind paying top dollar for things that would last a lifetime. I want to buy one lawn mower ever, one oven, one car... Not need to replace them every five minutes when they break, rust, fall apart, become discontinued with no replacement parts available for basic maintenance, deliberately built to stop the average DIYer being able to service stuff. Ok, one is optimistic and technology moves on so damn quick that would be likely impossible. But on many everyday items that are churned out of factories cheaply with a deliberately short shelf life... |  |
