Battling
for job flexibility |
The UK has been
forced to accept the EU's Temporary Agency Workers Directive,
after years of opposing it.
It means agency workers will get the same pay and conditions
as permanent staff after only 12 weeks. Firms say it could
lead to job cuts.
Marina Yannnakoudakis is determined to stand up for
business.
She said: "Small business need to have flexibility and
be able to move with the market."

On
the line to Henley! |
Marina
Yannakoudakis joined the ranks of telephone canvassers during
the Henley by-election campaign. Marina said: "Henley sent a
strong message to Brown - time's up for Labour."
Conservative John Howell had a majority of 10,116 and
Labour were in a shameful fifth place. |

discuss strategy - particularly how to raise a fighting fund.

IT'S
TIME EU TOOK NO FOR AN ANSWER
Arrogant
leaders shun Irish referendum result |
EU leaders in Brussels are refusing to take the Irish no vote on the
Lisbon Treaty for an answer.
They are pressing the Irish for a second referendum, telling them
to get it right this time - instead of accepting the result of the
democratic vote in which the treaty was rejected by 53.4% to 46.6%.
Arrogant Valery Giscard d’Estaing, ex-French President and author
of the abandoned EU Constitution said: “The Lisbon treaty is
not dead …. It is imperative that they vote again.”
Marina Yannakoudakis is continuing to fight for a UK referendum.
She said: “The fate of British sovereignty is still under threat
as Gordon Brown clings on and |
continues to
ignore public opinion.
“Brown’s u-turns are legendary, but
his broken promise to hold a referendum is just one more example of
this Prime Minister’s lack of principles.
“Ireland has been the only country allowed to have a referendum
on this treaty, and the answer was a clear no.
“The German minister of the interior, Wolfgang Schaeuble,
said ‘a few Irish cannot decide on behalf of 495 million Europeans’.
Well, he’s right, let us decide for ourselves and give us the
referendum which ensures our democracy. However, all is not lost,
and the Irish referendum has won us some time.
“I would urge everyone to join Iwantareferendum.com and
continue the fight the treaty. |
