Good idea, go there, make noise, throw a few rocks around, perhaps slap a black guy/girl since they might be foreign. If you lucky, a local media outfit will be about trying to find stories to fill their pages. After all that is done, go find a job please.

Why would you think I am unemployed. I think you should find a job. Why do you want to assault black women ?
 
This is all over the news at the moment and it would seem like a good source for discussion. Quite how the OP deserves those sarcastic poll options I don't know.
 
I was listening to this on the Radio today and don't really understand it.

They are contractors. This means they receive a disproportionately higher rate of pay than salaried employees doing the same job, but they are not permanant and the work carries risk - they can end a contract and not have another. The risk is no permanent work, the reward is higher pay.

The company, which has a duty to its shareholders to maximise shareholder value, has chosen a company to perform work which met its tendering criteria. This is a foreign company. Big deal. We live in a globalised economy, this happens.

So what do the contractors over here do? Bitch, whinge, moan and.. go on strike. Strke for what? If they don't like the uncertainty of contracting why are they doing it?

I dont think they have a leg to stand on. Why should we give contracts to people purely because they happen to be from the same country as the company awarding the tender :confused:

Wow a gramar nazi. You are SO cool.

I am actually thinking of going to one of these protests, I actually respect the French for getting bums out of seats and getting on with a good protest.

Edit:- oh, just seen the "poll". Whats going on?! I thought if threads were "troll" worthy they were just closed!

Bit harsh I feel !

Yo, I'm the resident Grammar Nazi... Though I've been absent of late, I admit.

Fully agree, thats the chance you take with being a contractor, you are a disposable head.
