What an absolute ctnu.
Unbelievable, I'm normally to right of Gengus Khan on most matters but what an absolute twxt.
And I always thought they were b...ds for shutting the Remploy factories.

I've always strongly believed in the minimum wage and that with keeping us out of the Euro are the 2 good things I can say about the labour years. ____________________ I've a twin and a 4. |

Its actually bringing Merca stuff to the UK.
Like workfare, 0hour contracts etc.
In Merca they ran some experiments about how productive a disabled person is vs an able bodied person. The test was quite obviously biased but it came to the conclusion disabled people were less productive and therefore could be paid a lot less. ____________________ Spain 2008France 2007Big one 2009 We all die.

The Remploy factories wouldn't have needed to be shut, if they had been run as a viable business, rather than as a pet project. ____________________ https://i.imgur.com/fMrhZnH.jpg?1

Millibard creaming his pants over this just shows how thick he is, or how he has selective memory.
How about Liebor's idea of 50p per hour Ed?

I'm not disabled and I was offered an NHS admin job paying £3 an hour. The Tories won't be happy until all undesirables are working for nothing. ____________________ Yamaha MT-03 '08 (crashed)

Wow what a idiot
But just imagine the reaction if a UKIP member had said it
As for disabled people, Stephen Hawking seems to be making some decent contributions. Probably more so than Lord such and such. Maybe we should put a ban on Oxbridge people working as Ministers, they're all completely out of touch with the public [and reality].

Well I think it's quite a relevant point actually. If Labour has done the same thing, surely they are equally bad? |

Minimum wage is now £6.50, there are plenty of jobs that pay under £7.00. |

Since this is from the Govt, Vince Cable no less, you'd have thought if the number of minimum wage jobs was higher and it affected more people, it'd have been bumped up.
If the unemployment rate is 6%, and that = £2m people, then just in quick calc maths that's something like 3% of jobs paying minimum wage IF the 1,000,000 workers that are affected by the change is to be believed. |

Except it's not, it's £2.73, depending on who you're paying.
We already do distinguish based on worth, just with a broad, arbitrary brush.

He is right though.
This is the closest I can find to a full quote and it was a response to a councillor.
| Quote: |
"Now I had not thought through, and we have not got a system for, you know, kind of going below the Minimum Wage. There is a group, and I know exactly who you mean, where actually as you say they’re not worth the full wage. I’m going to go and think about that particular issue, whether there is something we can do nationally, and without distorting the whole thing, which actually if someone wants to work for £2 an hour." |
Why would Mr Small-local-business employ someone at nearly £250 a week, who struggles with the job, because of whatever misfortune they have suffered. The guy is spitballing ideas are a conference where they are, I would assume are supposed to discuss issues like this.
The whole thing typical politics and has been blown completely out of proportion.
Bottom line is as a politician you cannot remotely mention anything remotely negative about a minority group. The only thing I would say against him is he is a fool for saying it, the media LOVE this sort of stuff. People can't wait to be outraged at something. ____________________ Well, you know what they say. If you want to save the world, you have to push a few old ladies down the stairs.
