Racism at Liverpool Post Office

Anon | 13.01.2010 20:39 | Anti-racism | Social Struggles | Liverpool

The Privitisation/Franchising of Post Office Counters has given opportunity for bosses to Hire and Fire at will and has led to a racist policy by proxy.

Sine the Post Office on London Rd was Privitised/Franchised out all the local staff have been sacked or forced to retire.
The new 'owner' -an asian businessman has a clear policy of only recruiting recent immigrants from the subcontinent. The jobs are not advertised at the local job centre. The suspicion is that a form of bonded labour system is being implemented whereby immigrants take out a loan with a middleman and most of their 'salary' goes staight to them- but this can't be proved though it's the usual means of exploiting workers from the subcontinet in Dubai etc. Point is the effect is to discriminate against local workers- that's racist plain and simple,
