Bonnar calls on government to protect workers’ rights

On Tuesday, SNP MP Steven Bonnar put forward a 10-minute rule bill which called on the government to make provision about employment rights, including the right to request more predictable terms and conditions of work.

He said: ” If the Tories were intent on protecting workers rights, that they would simply retain and maintain those that were already enshrined in EU law.

“Of course we know they are either too proud or too pig-headed to admit that some EU law was good law and was effective law and that protected our workforce instead the Tories power through ignoring the fact that Brexit is the greatest political act of self-sabotage in the history of this state”.
