I think an incoming labour government, based on last manifesto ideas, and free from the devisive **** storm juggernaut that is brexit, could be trusted to enhance workers standards. I hope we get to see the day.
How exactly would they enhance workers standards, apart from bringing legislation out to protect workers rights.
They can do that out of the EU IF they won an election.

We’re light years behind Germany and France, technology, a solid manufacturing core not too reliant on the service sector, apprenticeships, workers rights and more.
