Conservative MP Henry Smith has used parliamentary privilege to raise the issue of two workers who were allegedly dismissed from a cleaning company because they were British.
According to Smith, the duo were dismissed by cleaning company Jani-King, based in Surrey, were fired simply because they were from Britain.
Speaking to MP's in the Commons, Smith said that "Recently I have been dealing with a case on behalf of two constituents who were dismissed from their job with a commercial cleaning firm called Jani-King, allegedly for being British".
"Can we have consideration for a debate on discrimination against British workers in this country?"
For once, a Conservative has said something worthwhile, there should indeed be such a debate.
Discrimination against the British worker is rife in one form or another, there is in fact little doubt that the British worker is the most discriminated against group in the British workplace.
The disenfranchisement of the British worker, and the discrimination which goes hand in hand with that, should be top of the agenda for debate and action.
Sadly, we'll not hold our breath, seems very few among those in power care about us or the dire situation in which British workers now find themselves.
