Just read that the people who are on strike at Heathrow belong to the Gate Gourmet which belongs again to the Texas pacific Group. Does that ring your ears?? The owner had that private Party with the Stones 3 years ago. Now they are begging for fair wages. Intersting wise the management allowed themselves a payrise of up to 80% while the workers mad redundand and/or with a new contract of nearly no salary. That's fair trade and globalisation. Wonderful this world we're living in.

totally agree with you..It's a shame !
recently in France, we had the same kind of scandal with "big bosses" 'Jean-Marie Messier and others) who have a real despize for workers and increase their salaries indecently explaining that it's thanks to them if the company is making big profits...and at the same time, though they're making profits, they easily fire people leaving them down in the gutter.
