Conservative plan to raise minimum hourly rate to £10.50 was ambitious. Labour plan to increase minimum wage to £10 would lose us our jobs and send unemployment soaring.
And we wonder why all those old duffers robotically repeat the line "Labour will bankrupt the country".

Is this called "spin" or boll***S ?
I also note that Boris has indeed removed protection on workers rights, removed a commitment on some refugee children being allowed to come to the UK and interestingly removed Parliament having any say on the final Brexit deal.
It seems that democracy is only important when it suits and scrutiny has all but disappeared.
Corbyn & Co have not only lost the election but, been defeated so heavily that we now have a virtual dictatorship.
They have also removed parliamentary scrutiny of any trade deals so much for sovereignty. I regret that they are taking the vote in the North to mean they have authority to do what they want because they are now the party of the working class. This means that whatever they do, those that voted to get Brexit done are also responsible for all the other bad legislation coming the country’s way. It easy to say they are for all but regrettably time will show they are not and based on the withdrawal bill this is coming sooner than I thought.

All those labour voters who voted blue deserve whats coming. Sorry, but that is how i feel about them now.

And let us not forget, that since that 'ambitious' promise, they've since downgraded to say that they will raise the NMW - only if "economic conditions allow."
It's just a real shame that we didn't have any empirical evidence of Boris Johnson's prior conduct, to help us work out if he was prone to lying to get what he wanted.

Len McClusky & Unite, plus Squawkbox.... no lying or smearing to see here, move on.
Great article and good on her for winning her case but, I thought that we were "discussing" the minimum wage and how the media have spun the same article in opposite directions Labour = bad, Conservative = good ? and then you chucked in some random mumblings about Len Mcliusky, which were irrelevant to that discussion and I thought that you were suggesting that they had disagreed with the minimum wage but, alas, you had gone off on one hell of a tangent.
As I say, good on her if she has been libelled and then won her case but, do try and keep up or, at least keep on topic or, put some meat on the bones of your random article link.
