clicky


Quote:
A protester claims the 30 demonstrators at a sit-in at the Vestas wind turbine factory on the Isle of Wight have been told they will be sacked.


You illegally occupy a workplace and then wonder why you get threatened with the sack..doh!!!
The protesters have just ensured that the Vestas Windsystems will be able to save even more money by not having to pay redundancy to the protesters and also ensuring that any hope of keeping the place open is well and truley scuppered.

I was under the impression that the factory was closing anyway. Or at least I'm sure that's what was mentioned on the local news here in the SW a few nights ago. :?

Points West or Spotlight?

Or if you're silly enough to watch ITV, Westcountry or HTV West? :P

EDIT: OMG. Apparently they merged ITV Westcountry and HTV back in February. That shows how often I (don't) watch commercial television news. :shock:
