One aspect of the 'friends' piece did interest me, though, where one supporter stated that the right to take time off work to look after a friend who was ill should be introduced. I assume the inference is that you can already do this for a partner or relative - how would I know - I'm self-employed!

Well, isn't this a good idea? How many single old people have no one to help when they are ill? Wouldn't they benefit from a friend who could take a few days off work to help? Seems quite a nice humanitarian suggestion to me.
Well said Clive!

This thread was yet another example of Subman's, misleading, right-wing propaganda spam campaign.
