Detournement Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 The problem is the people being exploited in the production of cheap clothes. Solving this requires import tarrifs which counter the value of exploitation to the likes of Primark. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Comrie Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 "i'm not aware of anyone under 16 working in our factories" Means there probably is, but I'm looking the other way as hard as possible. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bangladeshi people would surely be better working in jobs where the end product/value created benefits Bangladesh rather than Primark shareholders and a tiny Bangladeshi elite. There is no reason why Bangladesh has to be a sweat shop other than it suits it's rulers. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Primark should be forced to ensure that all workers making products for them are paid the local living wage at a minimum, and are not forced to work ridiculous hours to survive. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exploitation is someone working a 40 hour + week in this country and still not being able to feed their family or heat their home. I do get what you're saying, however I think it's about time that our politicians finally got the message that they should be looking after their own constituents rather than going on crusades that look good on their CV's. Again, another reason why we have ended up with this Brexit shambles............. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact that Rhea Wolfson is Jewish is irrelevant. Just look at the way Israel are behaving, Hitler would be proud of them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

welshbairn Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 (edited) Not sure it's wise electorally for the MP for Hackney and Shadow Home Secretary to be tweeting this. Hackney's had 3 thousand attacks and robberies by moped in the last 5 years. https://twitter.com/HackneyAbbott/status/1067359292238544896 Edited November 28, 2018 by welshbairn 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
