major donor to the Conservative Party proposed the dilution of workplace rights
http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk...s-7593585.html
This very worrying development for sure. If it was not for Lib/Dems for once they actually managed to block the move. Likely if Conservatives was alone would got it through unhibited. Civil servants questioning things now we surely now have to have proper investigation what policies been interfered by whom. Quote:

Speaking of recycling articles on "influence", I found this article on the Huff Post which was, imho, quite interesting....

THE WHOLE SORRY MESS POLITICS NEEDS CLEANING UP. I am getting to point I wont vote because there all the same dodgy freeloaders. I hope we get new party which worth voting for integrety. At present you be nuts to vote any leading parties. It need one big investigation new regulations those caught banned for life of politics and jailed. I still dont know why cruddas not been arrested. Major fines for the parties and suspensions which might make them more careful who they recruit as MP's. Wondering if Party politics should be banned have all MP's all independant. That though would be very drastic measures but we should at least ban party voting in parliment. MP's should be freed from shackles not be banned from parties due to voting against bill. At moment rightly over this vid Conservatives policies failed/got through should be scrutinised infact we should have independant investigation. If you want all policies over the years to see what influence was there too. The article its linking a policy if it was not for lib/dems would found its self passed. Its about MAJOR DONOR setting NOW conservative policy. Yes its old policy its also under light what gone on recent days valid information. Even the Civil servants concerned. Surely you must be concerned outside influence on policies. Surely your worried there maybe big issue of possible who pay the most can by a policy made for them. How many policies been for these huge donors not good for the country. |

I think there should be limits on donations (be they from businesses, individuals, or unions), and limits on election spending.

New image of politics should elude from parties and MP's. I think many disalusioned with politics feel betrayed infact we could done without this scandal. Then again it might just make thinks alot better but we never learned from any of the cash for questions, peerage. cash for influence. Why we never learn why MP's found involved dont get permenent banning orders. We wont clean it up until MP's took to task parties punished. Do we need regulatory body to sanction MP's, parties for indescressions. Investigate scandals act without being asked. So like in this case would swung full swing into action first thing monday. |

Re: major donor to the Conservative Party proposed the dilution of workplace rights
Why do the Tories rich backers want to reduce our standard of living even further, they have massively weakened our unions and reduced wages and pensions in real terms :mad:
What we need is far more workers rights and far less regulation of unions, starting with the scraping of Trade Union and Labour Relations (Consolidation) Act 1992 :td: This also shows how much the Tories care about anyone who is not rich, honestly, I am starting to wish I was a Billionaire/Trillionaire :( And for petes sake, can you end this rubbbish about how bad union influence is, unlike the wealthy who donate to Labour, Tories, Lib Dems and even UKIP, the unions represent 6.5 million working people |

We don't want a situation like we had in the 70's, and they still have in USA now. As it is almost like 'Carry On at Your Convenience'. And the unions who were supposed to be protecting the workers, were actually putting the companies out of business, and losing their members their jobs. |

I realise now that the CWU are not the same bully boy union that the miners union was and the one i remember for what they did to members of my family back when the strike was at its height. I agree with a lot of what the CWU are doing and feel i am best placed being a member in this present climate. |
