Or not. Just turn up the nationalist mood music whilst achieving sweet FA, the mug's will lap it up.

Still think you're not having your trousers pulled down?

This link is about tutors from places like sri lanka as young as 17 are being used to teach maths for as little as £1.57 an hour under a flagship government scheme to teach maths to under privileged children in the UK.

This one is about how foreign and billionaire tax exiles have used furlough the enrich themselves even further

£1.57

I may be looking at this from a different perspective. That does not surprise me one bit. I bet they would like to pay everybody in this country that if they had the chance. One thing for sure, I would love to pay those ****s that, you know, what they are worth

Am I missing something here as I did speed read it. Is the problem that they are being under paid?
it's a minimum of £1.57 and the average is £3.02 which in Sri Lanka where they are based is 2.5 times the estimated equivalent graduate salary and is 15 times the minimum wage.

Underpaid and exploited I agree. The flip sid of the coin is these thick ****ing politicians may see that as a blue print to save costs

It's nothing new, not so much now but many companies had mainly Indian call centres for many years to save money.
Not saying it's right.............just saying.

Yes..... the points the article is making are these
- this is taxpayers money that's gone to the private sector
- they are putting that money in their pockets and outsourcing the work and paying peanuts.
- why not invest this money at home with those schools
- that's your tax pounds going to enrich private companies.
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
