THE LAST DITCH

Link: TUC at Warsaw Jobs Fair.

Brendan Barber, TUC General Secretary, said: “It’s vital that Poles and other migrant workers know their rights before they come to work in the UK. Otherwise they risk becoming sitting ducks for employers who delight in making money out of exploiting vulnerable workers.”

After enduring 50 years of Communism, the Poles will know exactly what to make of that kind of 19th Century talk. When it comes to “exploiting vulnerable workers”, Brother Barber, they know there is nothing like a Socialist State and its trade unionist lackeys.

Tom is a retired international lawyer. He was a partner in a City of London law firm and spent almost twenty years abroad serving clients from all over the world.

Returning to London on retirement in 2011, he was dismayed to discover how much liberty had been lost in the UK while he was away.

He’s a classical liberal (libertarian, if you must) who, like his illustrious namesake, considers that

“…government even in its best state is but a necessary evil; in its worst state an intolerable one.”
