Modern slaves

In Brussels they were discussing about the hours of work per week, because the UK minister of employment as well as other north European countries’ ministers wanted them to be extended up to 65 or 70. We have to resist these nightmare scenarios. We are not slaves to the companies. If the big companies need more work they should hire more employees. We mustn’t work like slaves to increase the companies’ profits. All the rights that the workers have gained with their blood during the last century, they are now gradually being lost. We have become the modern office slaves. We mustn’t stand still. We mustn’t let our conservative or the so-called “labour-friendly” governments – capitalism’s servants – decide for our slavery without us. Let’s show them our strong disapproval and opposition.
