While other governments in the EU are dropping the age – the space cadets that run this country are trying to kill off anyone who works in the construction industry – talk about trying to keep the manual workforce in its place. Its like going back to Victorian times.

The government seem determined to make the construction industry tradesmen work until they drop or better still, until we end up in a wooden box. People in the UK on average work a lot more hours than our European counterparts in general, but this Conservative Government want us to work even harder. Construction industry tradesmen need to retire early.

Why are the construction industry companies not fighting for our rights. What company wants 1000’s of 70 yr old men and woman hobbling around a construction site. If everyone was employed in the industry and these companies had to pay all the time off for people associated with the medical problems people of this age group, they would be shouting from the roof tops.

Let's make a stand.
