Just guessing but suspect that if you invest in the hope of making money here, then you are likely to be a Tory voter because you believe in capitalism over socialism.
Full disclosure I was a Firefighter in the 1978 strike and saw such corruption with what was known as the “ Hardship Fund” , managed by the FBU that we saw union reps that bought cars during the strike, it was so bad that I withdrew from the union and got sacked. I hired a lawyer and as firefighters are local authority employees, I was pretty quickly reinstated. Mick Lynch is a “ throwback” union rep, in the Arthur Scargil mode, ( younger viewers should Google) that just hates conservatives. If you watch Question Time tonight, he was proven as a liar when the Tory rep on the panel showed a letter that clearly stated that Network rail is not looking for compulsory redundanciesc where possible. He tried to deny it but he was clearly embarrassed… Trade Union reps are an embarrassment to employees. Market forces will dictate wages and conditions. We know as employees that modernisation and efficient practices will guarantee quality jobs and good wages!…we are in the 2020’s not the 70’s. Modernisation is a necessity not a choice if you want to earn decent wages!
