Down the pub - the thread about nothing and everything

[mtread]

Yes but what I saying is why does Mr wetherspoon favour so called "cheap labour" when in fact they cost the same as hiring the guy down the road?

Wasn't one of the 'plusses' of Brexit to raise UK workers' living standards? Obviously not if you work for Wetherspoons.
An ideal time for the government to raise the minimum wage significantly. Then he wouldn't have any problems hiring.
