Starbucks - Boycott?

I know plenty of you wouldn't give them the steam off your latest brown trout.... but now they've been "outed" for tax avoidance (think we are talking £millions), will those who do like a fancy coffee be giving them a swerve?

 

As a UK business & tax payer it pisses me off that they've paid 0% in tax!! Fuckers!

 

If anything they should be the cheapest on the High St.

    There need be no connection between the idea as it was conceived and the way it was mis-applied by later generations. There is no resemblence between what Beveridge recommended and what we have today.

  • So we have some big companies not paying UK taxes and paying their staff a wage which has to be subsidized by the state via working tax credits & the like. Capitalist economies aren't meant to be

  • Maths was never your strong point was it...

i love wanderersways :)

 

lw and wm in a tree

I always belonged to a union, with it being the AUEW or NUM, i think i did a one day strike with the former in 73, and a bit longer one with the latter in 84/85.

If someone joins the union at our place you know they are gonna be a handful with sickness etc.

 

Theres no other reason for it in a fucking call centre for fucks sake.

 

Every person ive dealt with in the unions is a grade 1 cunt. Not one of em has actually 'helped' the staff they are supporting other than delaying the inevitable.

It's another era mate, i worked when the unions ruled, we all got smashed under Thatcher when i could get a decent wage at the time, just thank your lucky stars you are in a job.

The unions needed smashing. JSL.

There's a massive difference between the unemployed and the unemployable.

71 quid a week for doing jack all is not bad.

Good article by Janet Daley in today's Sunday Telegraph

So who will tell the truth – and then act on it? Who will say not just that welfare must be cut, but that in future the NHS will need to rely on a system of co-payments? That people will have to provide for their own retirement because the state pension will be frozen? That without a radical reduction in government intervention, the free and prosperous West will have been a brief historical aberration?

 

 

And that, my friends, is the reality

Move over Milton Friedman and John Maynard Keynes, there's a new sheriff in town, and her name's Janet Reger (sic). What is Obama thinking? Socialized healthcare? He's well on the way to becoming history's greatest monster. She's a buffoon, a sort of Ayn Rand 'Lite'...

You've sort of made the same point twice now, it was utter bollocks the first time round too.

It was accurate the first time. It's accurate now.

 

I notice you still haven't condemned the big companies for fucking this country up the arse.

 

You're an ordinary little man with an ordinary little job. Why do you pretend to be important?

There's fucking loads of things I haven't condemned, for example war crimes, doesn't mean I approve. It's implicit. You are an idiot.
