MPs and the press have attacked the British Virgin Group founder, estimated to be worth £11.2 billion, for not spending his personal fortune to help employees.
“Eight weeks at the £94 statutory sick pay would cost £754 per employee. There are 8,571 employees in Virgin Airlines. If all of them took eight weeks unpaid leave that would be a cost of £6.4 million."
Its amazing isn’t it, the Pied Piper has finally been recognised for the parasite that he is. About time the Branson acolytes woke up to the fact that he is in it for himself and couldn’t give a rats arse about the employees.
