Political Fix

CHAPTER

Workers' Rights and Industry Regulations

This chapter examines the Labour Party's upcoming legislative proposals concerning workers' rights and business regulations, including zero hours contracts and employment rights from day one. It highlights the challenges and skepticism surrounding these promises, particularly in relation to the government's newfound focus on stricter regulations in the water and rail sectors, alongside the necessity for private investment. The discussion underscores the delicate balance between political motivations, business interests, and the imperative for public safety in the wake of regulatory failures.
