Watch closely the investigation going on about 'Sports Direct' in UK and its treatment of agency workers. UK MP's are strongly opposed to the practices of that company and its work ethics. Today, on the BBC radio, the chairman of the Institute of Directors was scathing of the abuse caused by Sp Direct on its workers. One item in particular was quoted as abhorrent and "unacceptable": people carrying out duties at the behest of the employer in their own time for no pay. For those in certain LoCo's does that sound familiar?
If so-called self-employed pilots do not feel the time is now right to connect to this government led movement against unacceptable work practices, and act, then they only have themselves to blame and there should be no more whinging.
