        @AtomicEdge @LandsKateDesign @BBCBreaking The answer is about 2%. And the proportion HAPPY with their lot is 66% of that 2%. Quit moaning.

        @LandsKateDesign @wolvesbradders @BBCBreaking I'll give you the benefit of the doubt. But MOST people are moaning.

        @AtomicEdge @wolvesbradders @BBCBreaking TBH 2% on 0 hours contract is too many, in my opinion.

        @LandsKateDesign @AtomicEdge Why is it? It can benefit businesses and SOME people who want flexibility. Obv doesn't suit all!
