  • A revealing interview from 2012 of the current Chancellor.

    Usual cliches of blaming everything on welfare claimants, suggesting that British people should be willing to work long hours for low pay like immigrants.

    At 2:30 he expresses admiration for the working pattern of Chinese factories:

    they time absolutely every single thing that you could ever do. They have to do a certain job in an hour, and if they do it in 58 minutes, they get two free minutes.

    This is the gist (the entirety in fact) of the political ethos that he, Truss, and others put out in that pamphlet in 2012.

  • I love it how people that never had to work in such conditions preach to others that this is exactly the solution.

    Also lol how are you going to enforce that in the "high skilled" jobs the Cons let immigrants in to do... write 200 lines of code an hour? Oh but the code is bad... em, no wait... ok 200 lines and all automation must pass! Wait, now the integrations fails so somebody else... eh.

    Or in his line of work, banking, how do you even monitor productivity?
