Sorry SBIS, but I'm not an SWP member, nor am I in need of a bath or a job. In fact I've been on the old age pension for the past three years and before that I was a local government officer. Neither can I make sense of your remarks about sophistication and idealistic chips on shoulder.

Yes I'm a socialist, and proud of it, and because of that, I believe that anybody working full time in the sort of conditions which Amazon expects its workers to operate should have a wage which is sufficient to live on comfortably.

What's this nonsense about society being "sophisticated" anyway? If we lived in a sophisticated society we'd have solved the problem of low pay and vicious employers years ago.
