I am not saying we should impose trade tariffs or anything like that i am saying that if a company is in the UK making profit it isn't that much to ask them to prioritise british labour with a bit of preferantial treatment when times are hard. Why is it so bad to look after your own rather then keep playing by the rules all the time.
i agree -these jobs are important to the Grimsby area so why not look after our own interests first.. the italian workers are even housed in a floating hotel in the dock [so not even contributing to the local hotels /bed n breakfast industry,]
and i also believe the italian company will on no account employ any one local
even for labouring jobs , this is viewed as the thin end of the wedge around here ,they're not welcome and locals wont work along side them.
