The Employment Rights Act is an absolute nightmare for small businesses. It's likely to work out to be an Unemployment Rights Act particularly for the young trying to get their first job. It could well also end up being the "S*d this, I'm closing my business. The extra paperwork is last straw".
Employers have always moaned and whined about every single advance in workers' rights throughout history.
No doubt the slave owners of Alabama found the Abolition of slavery 'a nightmare', as did the coal mine owners when they stopped children going down the mines.
In more recent times, there were howls of outrage when women got equal pay for work of equal value and when the minimum wage and statutory paid leave came in.
Mate, we don't care how much you lot whine and whinge - workers deserve fair rights at work, end of.
It is just so absurd that unions support the trans cult over their actual members. These women could surely sue their unions for breach of contract. Despite the mood in the country changing and people not standing for this gaslighting nonsense, our institutions sadly are showing little sign of turning.
It's good to see that common sense is, at last, beginning to prevail over 'transgender ideology' across society at large and you're right that our trade union movement urgently needs to catch up with public opinion on this.
Transgender ideology has no place within the wider equality agenda - in fact it contradicts sex equality because it perpetuates and draws its belief from Victorian-era gender stereotypes.
In a decade or so, people will look back on transgender ideology with utter bewilderment that any rational person could ever have seriously entertained this illogical notion.

That'll really help with employment.

Couldn't agree more. As a retired member of Unite I hope my union has a better track record than most on trans issues.
I think it fair to say that the Trades Union movement and the Labour Party no longer represent the interests of the working class.
This is a great post
Reform now do a more effective job in many respects than Labour.

You are absolutely spot on with this Paul.
