Worth remembering when people keep insisting that the new, low paying businesses in Brixton are 'giving' us jobs.
Well there clearly are some, but not many. But what has that to do with the point being made anyway?If only there were some living wage employers in Brixton

And what's your brilliant suggestion for encouraging successful bosses and entrepreneurs to pay their staff a fair wage rather then the bare minimum?Presumably we should everything possible to encourage them ?

I'm all ears.
There's no chance of that happening any time soon though, is there?If I had the power, I’d lower their business rates in return for paying a fair wage. You back them, we back you

NEGATIVITY. Nothing you can say will ever make the grade.
We spotted you! Striding past the cenotaphI would have gone but decided the protest against Boris at Whitehall was more important. I did bump into a few people I knew at Whitehall so yes its unlucky for XR that this was at same time.
Interestingly people seem to have adopted some of XR tactics. Sit down protest in Trafalgar Square stopped all traffic and left the police not quite knowing what to do.
I've a lot of sympathy for XR. As my photos show they are up for it. Respect.
Everything you say I agree with. I have love hate relationship with Hippies as that's my background.
I do think XR media profile / PR has been very good. They have got the climate change issue back on the front pages and in people's minds when everything in this country has been about Brexit.
And I do have a lot of time for people who are willing to be arrested for what is positive thing.
Last night I was in the pub ending up defending them. The accusations being they are to white and middle class. Don't understand the police ( which I do agree with).
The SWP have taken decision to get their members to join and support XR.Which is why the SWP front organisation was there today. I don't have a particular problem with that if it brings class issues into it. Plus the left should take on board climate change.
What I don't quite get is the relationship between XR and the Green Party. Was the Green Party at the event? They are strong in Lambeth. What I've heard is that there are dark Greens and light Greens in the Green Party.

Plymouth Council are running a new scheme to give inclusive employers rates cuts and other perks. That’s the way to do it, Lambeth!And what's your brilliant suggestion for encouraging successful bosses and entrepreneurs to pay their staff a fair wage rather then the bare minimum?
I'm all ears.
Trouble is, Lambeth worship at the shrine of Blairite entrepreneurs who feel they should be handsomely rewarded for their 'risk' (see: wages for Pop Brixton bosses).Plymouth Council are running a new scheme to give inclusive employers rates cuts and other perks. That’s the way to do it, Lambeth!
Where have they given the answer?Inbetween all the jackboot "he got what he deserved" fascist comments on Buzz, this legal opinion made a refreshing change:
You can't see the tweet in my last post?Where have they given the answer?

Indirectly some employers get state backing now. I know a few people who do low paid jobs and still need to claim benefits to top up the low pay they get. And its not an easy process to do this.
Just what Brixton needed!Seems the roof top bar / club got the go ahead

FFS.
The lawyer tweet has put Okay with " . It obviously not ok to pepper spray someone sitting down is how I read the tweet.
BTW what do you think? Did the police act correctly in your opinion?
