You literally don't need foreigners to do these sort of jobs when there's no shortage of native people that could do them
Roo rider here, yes it's shit, yes we buy own equipment. I left job. Sickening hours just to cover costs, below minimum wage money. Coolie slave work. Roo knowingly allowed hiring/selling accounts by gypsy/arab mafia types using stolen accounts to give jobs to illegals.
noone could afford to do it for 5 pounds though, the fact they have housing for free is the reason they can even do it that cheap in the first place
We don't need anyone doing those so called jobs.
But they cost more
Yeh... South Park comes to mind "They took our jobs" and now even the migrant jobs have been taken by new migrants that work for less. Lmao. The reason everything gets more expensive apart from labour? migrants.
Sarg'n, pay Callum more so he doesn't have to leave and work for Deliveroo.
No, I want to see callum do a video on his own channel where he goes deliverooing on the foreign streets of London
@@angmori172in a challanger mark2 tank.
he's walking across Iraq
I reckon he's asked for more money and Carl's said no. Complete speculation tbh but can't think of a better explanation for his departure when he fits in so well here. Not necessarily Carl's fault - remember that the channel has been de-monetised
@@matthewjames1114 callum actually left? When?
deliverroo workers realising immigration depresses wages
Plus the fact their housing is subsidised so they can actually afford to work for 5 pounds vs someone who doesn't have free housing.
Immigration Austerity.
@@WayStedYou Immigration Austerity
Classic economic theory as formulated by David Ricardo. Not taught at university.
@physiocrat7143 it shoulddnt need to be taught its really obvious. More labourers means employers can just replace people who ask for raises, and theres high competition.
Boycott food delivery for the good of your community and personal health.
I'm housebound and unable to cook an entire meal for myself, but even I don't use delivery apps etc and get takeaway meals.
Remember to also not tip your delivery driver. I'm not being sarcastic or facetious either. They're already getting paid to bring things from one place to another. There's no reason a customer should then pay the delivery man more money for doing their job successfully.
Also another life lesson, Tips do not equal Wages. If you're working for tips and not a firm rate of pay, then you're a sucker.
I've been doing that for years. Any money i save i use to buy high quality meat from a butchers. Tonight dinner is a rump steak that's about the size of my keyboard (17" * 6") and it only cost just over a £5.
Yum Yum Yum.
@@raiserofchickens Tipping isn't really a thing in the UK, especially for food deliveries.
Here here
We are living through Immigration Austerity.
Our wages are suppressed and our public services are overwhelmed.
Thats the intended result, always was.
@@ALovelyBunchOfDragonballz All because a certain tribe is so jealous of our historical accomplishments.
But GDP but shit new builds but landlord morgage but infinity Africans
Australia stopped immigration for two years during covid. We had the highest wages and lowest unemployment in fifty years.
Overwhelmed places the blame on others. It’s failing, because this government pretend to care about it.
One of the most important points to make that is *always* missed by conservatives is that this civilization didn’t just “fall from the sky into Whte people’s laps.” It has to be recreated every single day with OUR blood sweat and tears or it will exist no more. We’ve tried for generations thinking that other peoples would come here, see how we live, and decide to imitate us and become a Westerner like we are but that hasn’t happened and will never happen. I don’t know how many ways we need to be shown that groups of people are not interchangeable and our value systems are not universal before we finally understand that we are unique.
There are of course exceptions to the rule, but understand those who would embrace our way of life are peer pressured and bullied to not to. And they won't stop doing it to them by simply asking nicely. By 'our way of life', I don't mean the woke insanity that currently infests our civilization...
@@TarsonTalon well there are two concepts called “numerical courage” and “numerical diffidence” that explain this. You say they need to be peer pressured into following our way of life, which is not exactly accurate but close. When they have small numbers, they exhibit numerical diffidence, meaning they don’t want to disturb our way of life because they know OUR social norms and expectations for behavior are in effect, so they follow us. But when enough of them are in our home and they know we aren’t fighting for our way of life (because of Whte Gu ilt due to generations of antiwhiteism), they begin to feel numerical courage and no longer feel the need to blend in.
@@TarsonTalon and that “woke insanity” you’re talking about is a result of antiwhiteism. If you listen to them long enough on any one of their favored topics, you’ll hear that every one of their arguments boils down to “justice” for alleged past crimes of Whte people/liberation from “the opp ression of Whte men”
I agree plus our parents/grandparents, great grandparents toiled and gave their lives for our way of life and our governments just give the country away……….
used to be a time that British people were thought to be alien because how bloody well we ran shit as a nation.
No one of my generation (who had to phone the takeout on a handset) ever worried about such underhanded behaviour. Despite being technologically inferior, we had a sense of community and trust. That's completely gone now due to mass immigration.
Yes, I saw an article yesterday that was appealing to young people not to use the bank of Mum and Dad to help to buy a house, the main gist being that it was a bit unfair. That argument would have been a hard sell 25 years ago - but it's even more so in the mercenary, post mass migration culture we have today.
@LisaFan135 What parent doesnt work hard in life to give their children a better start than them. And when you've destroyed the country with astronomical house prices, what other choice do people have. The unfairness comes from migration-lead pressure on the housing market. Population decrease would actually improve the price of housing, but the pursuit of GDP to fund national debt over a balanced approach of economy and culture in harmony will never allow it.
It's not just immigration. Liberal/leftist policies have changed how native westerners act.
Callum has found his calling, and has unfortunately been conscripted to the Deliveroo Corps. He shall be sorely missed.
Any idea where Callum is going?
Haha.
"Don't go Callum, we all still love you...!" ❤️

To look after his own channel, I believe is the word.
Two things you can do as an *absolute minimum* to fight back against out cultural degradation : Give up your TV license and get your own f**king takeaway. If you can't even do that then you don't want to endure even the slightest discomfort and you are a hopeless case wishing that things would "just change".
Already do that cancelled my TV licence over 3 years ago. Have never used the services of deliveroo. Also, don't eat food from kebab houses in general. Which everyone should do, especially with hygiene practises from 3rd world countries.
@@action1976I'd say 30th world hygiene standards 😂
Shit i'm ahead of the curve i don't have cable and i don't use delivery services as why the heck would i pay a premium for cold microwaved garbage, i've worked in the food industry 90% of that shite is microwaved.
When our kids left home I continued to cook large family meals. I put the excess meals in Tupperware and freeze it. So we have convenient meals but all home cooked.
@@action1976If you want foreign food, use a recipe. I cook great butter chicken from scratch. The exception I make is my towns Italian restaurant.
Immigrants who get the right to work. Get a deliveroo job then sell it on or rent it on to an illegal immigrant so these people will be earning less than even that after they pay the real owner of the account.
I have on multiple occasions seen this happen in the US. It's actually insane and there's no ID verification once the account is set up.
Yeah, we had that with taxi drivers some years back. The black population of my country is low, and a bunch of Africans were sharing a taxi between them, relying on it being more difficult for passengers to notice the guy driving wasn't the guy whose photo was on the licence card. Back then we were less hell-bent on filling the country with the third world so the taxi inspectors actually did their job and caught them in the act.
This happens almost everyday at my work in California. They can’t read the instructions on the orders because they are in English. Instead of leaving the meal in the lobby with the secretary, they spam call the recipient and wait for several minutes in the lobby. Then eventually they use google translate to communicate with secretary after they had blown her off earlier because her name isn’t on the order.
Yes they stack them, and rent out their social housing that taxpayers pay for and send the money back home as remittances.
Natives don't send remittances, it is yet another drain on our economy.
@@TheresaMayPM
In Bradford there are endless taxi drivers using their cousins license and insurance and pretending to be them, meant don't seem able to drive or speak English. Nothing will be done because the data would have bad optics, it would be Hate Facts
I did it for a company in the US called Roadie to supplement my income, only with my car. By the time I stopped I had driven 3,000 miles to earn roughly $1,000. That's before paying for gas and any wear on my car.
One thing I found funny and infuriating is, I was often delivering to people who couldn't even speak English. So here's a man whose family has been in North America since before the US was a country, delivering grocery store food to people who just arrived. And I'm 100% sure that my taxes were helping to pay for their food.
That is absolutely infuriating
The worst customers are those that don't speak English. When haven't filled out their address properly so I don't know which door to knock on and when I call them, they can't understand what I'm saying.
I made decent money doing it, but I also knew enough about vehicles to get some pretty good deals on junkers and run them till the wheels fell off. I also made money on the side doing maintenance on the other drivers cars.
There were only two other drivers that made a regular job of it. One was a drug dealer who claimed his illegal money as tips to throw off the irs. The other was a single dad who needed a job with adjustable hours and he made a decent bit of cash on the side as an unlicensed legal consultant at a family law firm. Basically he got custody of his kids by memorizing every legal text book he could get his hands on, didn’t have the official schooling to pass the bar exam but impressed the hell out of his ex’s lawyers.
Silver member here. I probably don't comment enough to help the algorithm. There have been so many great presenters of the years but I'm going to miss Callum in this setting and the chemistry he has with others.
We're all going to miss him here as well
Oh no, didn’t know he was going.😮

Well you have to add in that the migrants are getting social services and/or all expenses paid for. 5-6£ an hour is not too bad if it's all spending money.
Exactly. No rent or taxes, free clothing, transport, free hp, free food, free medical. They can keep every bit of cash they get. Except it's NOT FREE. WE pay for it.
£ goes before number!
@@joshmckenzie7526 thx bruv, english is my 3rd language so didn't know that 🤙
Why don't we all just boycot these 'take away' companies who are employing these people.
Because we are a minority in this belief and have very little leverage
never used it, never will
If you add the cost of housing these delivery guys including three meals a day etc, even on £5 ph they are better off than tue British working class. Deliveroo and the other companies doing this should be shut down.
Since the big couf I have friends who have totally fallen for the deliveroo service for almost any occasion. Be it for a morning coffee or a block of cheese they forgot for their evening lasagne. As a tight northerner I can't fathom paying anyone £5 to go a few hundred yards to the corner shop. Stop using them.
I also don’t understand the obsession with the American counterparts like UberEats, Grub Hub, etc.
Part of me understands getting delivery for rare or specific circumstances, but people who are seemingly incapable of grocery shopping or cooking their own food just astounds me.
Same. Why would an underpaid drone at a grocery store care about picking out the best produce for you, either. I've never liked drive-through either, because the food is often poorer quality, wrong, or something's missing because you're miles away by the time you discover the error so there is no incentive to get it right. A friend's son spent double on an order of McDonald's slop just to get it delivered. Didn't connect that with the difficulty saving money to get a car or his own place. Convenience is a killer. I'm too cheap to overpay for poison, and actually do better getting things and cooking things myself.
@@vidcas1711 You reminded me of a visit to my local favorite taco spot. I decided on a whim to get some tacos, so pulled in, ordered, and waited to take it home. In the 15 minutes it took my food to be prepared, I clocked nearly 10 different delivery people picking up orders. This could turn into another comment on the shockingly casual modes of dress while out in public, but Yikes, 'Murica is not doing well.
I used to deliver Chinese takeaway and the people with nice house's in a nice area hardly ever tipped, but the run down council estates normally always tipped
That's what the delivery charge is for, your wages.
Why would I pay more?
That’s why they’ve got the money in the first place. They’re tight,mean,selfish and don’t switch that on and off for anyone.
The people in council houses weren't tipping with their own money.
@@user-sx3pc4dj3r the delivery charge is actually for the company employing them, the tip is their wages or at least makes up 80%+ of it.
kind of like how in the US waitress/waiters can legally be paid about $2.00/hr so the tips are how they make their money, this is also why they make sure to cater to you very heavily and check up on you constantly because their income is dependent on your opinion of their performance.
@@user-sx3pc4dj3r I tip because I feel like they need the cash more than me, if I was so hard up I would only eat at home. If I was so hard up I wouldn't go out/get take away. There's obviously no obligation but it's often a solid indication about ones personality.
Someone somewhere has made an economy based on delivering lukewarm food.
To lazy idiots funding their own demise.
The sad fact is that it's people in the UK that order this food. And make this economy what it is. Hope they end up with dysentery.
The fall of Rome .. brought on by a plague of slaves
If these drivers are receiving free housing, care and feeding, etc. as asylum seekers and whatnot, the government is essentially subsidizing these delivery companies with your taxes. So 5 pounds/hr is fine for them. But for anyone else unfortunate to have to try to make a living at this, it's tragic.
Food delivery services: for when you want cold food at a 50% markup in 90 minutes.
What a deal.
Better check London sewers for gutter oil. This will be the main motivation for Millennials to learn how to cook.
A few years ago I made a conscious moral decision to never order from delivery companies because they exploit the labour. In the end, the government has to subsidise their wages and housing thus subsidising the delivery companies.
I stopped when the fees and everything were more than the order itself. Just ain't worth the hassle.
I saw a funny meme today which went like this........."If we send every Norwegian to Nigeria and send every Nigerian to Norway, in 5 years Norway will become a third word and Nigeria will become a civilized nation" and that resonated with me.
As an Italian let me give you a quick tip: Don't even bother to go to an Italian place if the people there are not swearing one to the other in Italian. All that swearing is part of the recipe.
I've been to a few 'italian restaurants' lately that have made me dubious on the staff's actual ethnicity, I feel that if ask where in Italy they are from they'll get tongue tied.
@@dubiouscaesar3709 In my experience, most of them are Eastern European people who worked in Italy for a couple of summer seasons in an Italian restaurant and learned to cook the kind of stuff that we give to tourists and that we wouldn't even eat if it was free.
Nowadays the owners will be Italians but not the cooks or most of other staff.

Eat real food, ie. things that don't have an ingredients list, and your health will improve. Generally less expensive too
u can say that about most companies
Really gonna miss Callum, I wish him well in his future ventures. He's always been one of my favorite presenters on the Lotus Eaters (although all of y'all are quite good).
Same. Carl and Callum will always be my favorite combination.
Excellent piece, just seeing hoards of Somalis outside fast food places on their bikes was enough for me to never trust these kinds of services.
Are people that lazy that they can't met the delivery driver at the door so they can't just steal your entire meal?
Yes. Yes they are
Would you answer the door to a migrant deliveroo driver?

The same thing happened to Uber drivers in London. Too many Asian drivers studying fake accountancy courses and working Uber full time
when I worked for domino's, delivering pizza, back in 1989, (admittedly doing 98hour weeks), I earned 3 times what my bank manager did.
how times have changed..
I did Pizza Hut in 91-92. Same deal. Four hour shift would end with a hundred in my pocket.
My UK Wishlist.
1) An immigration cap that is anchored proportionally to the existing UK population, with priority entrance based on heritage and EU citizenship.
2) An abortion ban, at least by the 5th or 6th week where a heartbeat is detectable.
3) An income flat tax system, where all citizens pay their fixed share. This would put an end to the free ride many new-brits have living off of the middle classes forcibly redistributed wages.
4) A Blind Justice system, where the details of the accused are obscured so that judge bias cannot interfere with the outcome. No more deliberate attempts to reduce the incarceration rates of criminals because they're from a different background. Crime is crime.
No. 2. is dumb.
Either abortion is evil and should be banned OUTRIGHT or it isn't.
Murder is murder, regardless of the timeframe.

If you saw the state of some of the take-away kitchens, i promise you would NEVER order food from there... What the eye doesn't see and all that........
I’m remembering the story of a missing girl last seen at one of these places, they boasted they had killed her and turned her into kebab, I’ve seen too many disgusting shops that have been exposed as terrible health risks.
Not to mention they spit in your food. That and some other bodily fluids, if you see what I mean..
That’s why I never frequent those Chinese takeaways with that small hatch. What’s going on behind those small salon doors is anyone’s guess.
The place where I work was bought out recently by a larger corporate structure and they’ve been hiring nonWh African mi grants NONSTOP since the beginning of the year. My workplace and hometown being Whte Erased…
What's wrong with walking to the chippy to buy your own fish and chips?
The chances of being struggle anuggled by a deliveroo rider. Walking isn't so safe these days. Best option might be to dust off the tin of beans from the pantry.
Mine's two miles away, we just walk there, eat there, walk home.
Nice and hot, and a refreshing walk. The owners know our faces too, they know how we want our food cooked.
Trying to avoid being stabbed.
If you do this work to top up your benefits and your accommodation and food is all free, you have literally no worries. You'll be better off than a lot of Brits.
Delivery bags are magical, they allow you to get into anywhere with very few to no questions ask
And stash a decent amount of swag in on your way out..

Weird, we call them ghost kitchens over here.
In Australia those 'ghost kitchens' are real ghosts as in they dont exist and your money vanishes when you buy from them.

Deliverooo drug delivery service should be banned by the government. It's modern day slavery.
Reasons why our ruling class wants open borders, to serve them, in more ways then one.
The thing is they are putting British restaurants out of business.
Ghost kitchens have been around since lockdown. Keep up guys.
I quote from Fry “yahoo, I’m a delivery boy!”
This is the best way to keep yourself unintentionally in shape i mean the amount of millage you would be doing cycling on a weekly basis alone
Here In France food has to be given hand to hand, during COVID deliveroo etc had to wait by the door until client checks the delivery, at which point you're given the option of giving a tip
The thing I've discovered with Deliveroo and UberEats is that the people delivering are never the person the app says it is.
One time, the app said it was the guy who ran my local convince store. The guy delivering was not that guy.
Putting 2 + 2 together, you've got legal immigrants signing up for the job but you've got illegal immigrants delivering your food on their behalf. It's a way of getting employment for illegal immigrants.
It's a similar thing to licensed taxi's.
And your local takeaway guy is probably getting a %
One guy can sign up for multiple accounts and on all the platforms and sells the jobs to illegals. They'll happily work for £5 an hour if their bed and board is paid for
We will miss you Callum! A 21 hot dog roll salute!
My shitlib councillor neighbour loves deliveroo.. almost every day, sometimes twice a day..

The world has changed but in my teens I was an economic immigrant worker who left the UK to do that. I was freelance but every single job was contracted, rubber-stamped by either the embassies or local police, the Unions agreed to all and I paid them fees, I paid income tax at source. I could only get those jobs if I had skills that they couldn't find in the local population. If someone local could do it then, quite rightly, I wouldn't be given the job. Economic immigration can work but with regard to skillsets needed...we've been doing it for decades and it should now be even easier with the immediate access to data. the fact it is not happening can only be down to design...
$16hr. is the real minimum wage here in the US, the reason it's only 5pd, is because UK is a smaller country and invasion is affecting you much faster. You were better than US for decades, but now worse.....My condolences, something has to be done🇬🇧!!!!
The USA isnt doing much better! $35 trillion in debt and no southern border any more
Councils grant far too many change of use permits for shops that close to become takeaways.
I did this on a bicycle and motorcycle in south London 2018-20. Pretty much the only white guy. I noticed the gradual decline in price per job, that you can accept or decline. To be fair if you picked the right jobs and you knew the streets you could make decent money. There seem to be many more riders than a few years ago though, it got harder and harder to earn enough. The poor do tip better yes.

Why don't the gigantic finance firms provide canteens for their staff? In the early Ninetees I worked in the local town hall council offices and we had a really great staff canteen and it was subsidized. It's gone now. My mother used to work in canteen at our local Prudential too. Gone too now. What the heck is going on?
Capitalism EVERYMAN FOR HIMSELF!!!
migrants get bike/Ebikes bought for them in when in hotels thats one sign you can tell its a migrants hotel/hostel lines of bikes
That's true. So many videos out there of the lines of bikes outside hotels for immigrants who have not yet proved their rights or status to live here. As a disabled person I wasn't able to get any disability monies at all to pay for my needs (I was getting professional carers in to my home to help me) and I could only walk a few number of steps (with an aftermath that would take days or weeks of hell). I couldn't get any monies for my disability needs and that included maintaining my mobility scooter. It needed new batteries and there was no way I could pay for them. I couldn't walk and I couldn't pay to maintain my scooter...I was absolutely left to suffer. Had I been able to walk then getting a free bike or E-bike would have been amazing...
Actually the guys who sign up for the accounts - legally - rent the bikes to the illegals along with taking a cut from each delivery
As a connoisseur of misery I approve this story and makes me want to use delivery apps to receive food at my job in finance in London
Steak and Shake restaurants in the US have a slogan, "in sight it must be right". Their kitchen is open and you could see the people making the food. Makes sense.
We call the dark kitchens ghost kitchens in the North East, usually a quick Google maps check can find that your kitchen is a residential address, or two that I found that were renting premises within other premises (cake company worked out the back of a pizza shop), business number a mobile that never answers and another that was working out of the back of a certain type of barbers!
It has it's place. The idea is that in Manhattan or central London an bicycle can get through traffic faster than a car.
A point you might have overlooked is this is state subsidised labour.
The tax payer is covering their lodging and food costs.
I can only hope those who think this was a good idea are eating the slop.
The economy is 50% finance and 50% state subsidised takeaway pizza.
Being "employed" makes them eligible for in-work benefits....get the bigger picture,lads....
Interesting fun fact: “Dark kichen” isn’t a new idea, if you order any weekly shops online they came from a “Dark Supermarket” that was just a warehouse with a similar layout but no branding.
All those chef's in the dark kitchens and all those delivery guys touching your food - after wiping their bums with their hands. No thanks.
Even if you meet the Deliveroo person they will just give you one less bag then feign ignorance if you ask them where half your order is...
I stopped using Deliveroo after more than half my orders seemed to have "missing" items
Coventry delivery sucks
Also Cov. Ain't it funny how - without exception - all the riders use ebikes, here. They're not cheap (even if its a modded pushbike with kit). That's quite an outlay for someone working pittance wages, so the question is: who's buying them the ebikes and why? I'd love somebody to do an expose on the obvious gangmastering going on.

Brilliant 👏
When I volunteered at the refugee centre, quite a few of them were doing delivery riding (including one of the teenage lads) they obviously hadn't been granted rights to work, so was doing it on someone else's NI Number, the money would be paid to their traffickers, then they'd get given a few quid a week. They also had them doing drug runs to pay off the trafficker a debt, they'll never pay off as it just gets increased until they learn enough English to tell one of us or someone else.
All these kinds of informal work should be banned, to compel employers to exclude those with no NI number and no history of living in the country.
Really wasn't expecting this sort of video
I worked with a guy who reckoned he could earn 30-50 for few hours on a weekday and up 100-200 for fridays and weekends. He said he never worked a full day.
As someone who's worked in all sorts of bars and pubs, I can confirm that pubs where the rich and wealthier visit make next to no tips, while the shitty dirty local pub that real people go to make almost double wages in tips
I don't know about the UK but in the US, at least in the San Diego and LA area although it's probably true nation wide, a large percentage of Japanese sushi and ramen places are actually Chinese owned.
Yes it's the same in the UK.
Used to deliver food in America, black women never tipped
And that's why you pay with cash for delivery
Diversity
I remember when these kind of jobs were filled up with local cockney guys and guys from up north down in london to earn a bit of cash
Don't use these services. Don't pay for your replacement.
We have the same thing with door dash here in America, only they are called ghost kitchens, not dark kitchens.
"Importing a slave class" is spot on.
Who will clean your toilets?
