They are low paid, they deserve their holidays. Simple as that.
The small business I used to work for got 30k just to relocate, within the same borough, from the premises the boss's pension fund owned to another building he was buying (I won't mention the Beamer and TT!). Small business gets plenty of help and likes to moan plenty. If life that's hard for them they can always get a low wage job with no BH entitlement.
I worked hard, continue to work hard, and don't get paid BHs as such, but that does not stop me agreeing that others, and in particular the low paid, should get them as a right.

You might find it easy others don't, particularly in the low wage economy where rights can be scarce. Your attitude, if I may speak almost frankly, whiffs a little! It's not a sin to show a bit of compassion and a sense of justice you know
EDIT: Your post reminded me a little of that Monty Python Yorkshiremen sketch; "I worked, hard, six, seven, eight days a week, with only one clog between us......
You had a clog, you were lucky...."

Companies seem to be doing very nicely thank you very much. Shame they keep coming out with the begging bowl for grants, tax breaks, allowances etc Scrounging sods!
