The UK doesn't have a cabinet of ministers. What we have are a group of politically inexperienced activists sitting around a table! Kevin Macquire is acting like a defence barrister who knows his client is guilty!
It's hilarious watching Kevin slowly realise Labour are no better than the Tories. You can see him lose a piece of his soul every time he tries to defend this nonsense.
So you want businesses to come here an expoilt our labour? Or better still, come here and replace our labour with cheap foreign labour? Why do you hate Britain so much?
Okay Elon Musk is a genius it seems, but remember when the Daily Mail/Express/Telegraph hero government were in power post-brexit, Musk decided to site his European TESLA production in the EU not UK.
All these people outraged about P & Os treatment of staff never said a word when EU migrants were working on farms & in car washes being paid low wages & undercutting British workers.
Car washes? Who were they undercutting? Only the petrol stations who now have got rid of their machines. They did away with hand car washes decades ago... And farms have a mass shortage because British workers don't want to do a horrible job, even when they raised wages.
Exactly!! Are we meant to be angry that a company that wants to undercut British workers is taking their £1 billion investment somewhere else. I thought the Tory and right leaning voters and media were all about British jobs for British people. Until money is involved that is
Kevin made Andrew Pierce look like a hypocrite when he pointed out that Grant Shapps who was transport secretary said the same thing, boycott P & O and Richard still berates the Labour, impartial journalism.
So when WFA is cut to save £1.5 billion, that isn’t a lot of money but a company that exploits it’s workers and then wants to bring in cheaper foreign workers and invest £1 billion, all of a sudden it is a lot of money. Is £1bn what British workers are worth to the people who were saying, ‘British jobs for British people’?
I'm with Kevin Maguire, here. What is the value of a company's investment if they can't pay employees well and hire non-british workers? How much will this company actually contribute?
@@HebrewsUK Exactly. We pander to these corporations because we are scared of them not investing but they want access to our market. We don't get investment because our economy is stagnant and we do things like Brexit, mini-budget and HS2. Lack of stability when our government has a history of changing it's mind all the time.
I have no problem with MP's having convictions and being forth right about them. If you voted for her you know exactly what she stands for. An I would choose not to travel with P&O. What a difference between to that position and Starmers say nothing approach. Stop trying to con voters and start trying to win them.
I actually *do* boycott P&O as the little stunt they pulled with their staff a few years back is just not acceptable conduct. I've noticed Stenaline staff are also suspiciously non-French/Dutch/British so will have to look into that. For some reason they're almost all South American 🤔
Transport Secretary is correct! We should back better businesses. Support workers rights.Outside investment is always complicated. Let’s invest ourselves? always issues. Obviously a profitable investment otherwise they wouldn’t be investing £1bn.
At several parts of the video, the journalists were talking over each other and you couldn't hear what they were saying. The role of the presenters is to ask searching and difficult questions, NOT to interrupt showing their own political bias. GMB needs better editing and control.
come off it guys! There's nothing wrong with what she's said here. People complain that politicains don't speak their language and then when someone does they're saying they need some restraint. Nothing that Louise said was untruthful
Yet the gig economy is still not talked about 500k workers more then half don’t make min wage and a big portion are illegal migrants not paying tax I don’t get why nothing is being done for this area
Still playing whataboutary, there is a big difference between what happened in P&O and what is happening today. If everyone boycott P&O ferries then they would simply close the route and move the ferries to other routes. The slack would then be taken up by other companies still not employing British sea farers.
@@aries6776 Look at some of the ports that have tried that before, the price is higher so they fail. Look at ports such as Folkestone, Sheerness, Harwich they have all lost ferry routes and the only way they can compete with the tunnel is to employ overseas labour. Why do you think P&O ferries were sold off in the first place ?
Why GMB insist on having the UK's answer to Bert and Ernie on their show, spouting nonsense thinking it is what the rest of the nation thinks I will never understand. What a Royal Snub, 'he's flying half way round the world to see them' so what? I believe the monarchy in the UK has it's place but if the people of Australia don't want to drop everything to see someone, who cares? A couple of grumpy old men who never have a good word to say about anyone except themsleves. Boring!!!
@Rookiescot are farmers prepared to not buy brand new range rovers yearly and 700,000 pound tractors when they already have working serviceable tractor already? You know, pay their employees a normal wage instead of 4 pounds an hour.
@@chadimirputin2282 They tried raising wages for seasonal fruit picking. It didn't work. Not enough British people want to do that sort of work and I don't blame them. We as consumers won't pay extra for the fruit when we can just import it.
I would agree that it's a complete mess for labour. Why invite P&O if your Secretary of State for Transport wants the public to boycott them?? Talk about not having a coordinated front.
Kevin Maguire, it's not acceptable but Labour will accept them, oh they're going to change the law, with loopholes no doubt. What hypocrites, you either believe something and stand by it or you don't. Backslide, backslide and then contradict yourself - spineless.
Should not forget here the dire state our economy was left in by the inept Tories, we have to hold our noses because our economy needs this investment. Kevin is right!
so its only 1 billion investment that means that an overseas company owns a big chunk of the port, why dont we reduce foreign aid by 3 billion and invest it in our own port? create our own jobs for brits
Sorry Kevin you’re wrong, the only reason why PO done what they did, because of British law and the only reason they had to do a u turn is because the French government stepped in, the the UE or the British government
The people complaining about cheap foreign labour used by P&O are also the same people championing mass uncontrolled migration so that there's people to do the the low paid jobs 'for economic growth'. Please make that make sense.
If the owners of companies do not have their say in who they have as employees and do not have the option of firing and hiring in Britain then why should any foreign investor wasn't to invest in the dictatorial Government of this country, if they want foreign investment then the Government needs to wind its neck in and but then again looking at this Government they just want what they can milk out of the foreign investment for their own back pockets
Of course companies do! But P&O situation whilst possibly legal was disgraceful. Why aren’t you supporting employees rights? Do you think they’re investing this amount of money for charitable reasons🙄🙄🙄
Rest of the world have cheap labour on ships, not just a P&O issue. It’s unfortunately part of a developed economy, you can’t compete here and accept other countries do it better.
@@lastlast2078 That's why you will never run a company....the politics of envy with no idea how business works....you don't complain about Greek multi millionaires crewing their ships with dirt cheap labour but expect P&O to compete with them...compete or pass the business on to others . Life is unfair .
Elon's employees are happy with him!! There is no Union because he pays better, and has better conditions, than the Union demands!! The Unions really don't like it when the staff don't need them!!!
Labour a bunch of students playing at being ministers , they need to grow up and realise you can’t on one hand condemn a company, then give them a one billion pound investment , they are showing that they open their mouths before putting their brains into gear , absolutely incompetent and childish
When Labour promised to stop the boats, P&O wasn't what I had in mind.
P&O wanted to replace British workers with Foreign immigrants. I don't think the anti-immigration brigade would be happy about that either.
Lol love it
When did Labour promise that?
Lol 😂

They don't. They simply understand that much of the audience aren't bright enough to realise they are being entirely disengenious.

'Investing in Britain' is the most ridiculous statement. They will invest anywhere they will make vast sums of money.
