Sad to see Amazon being promoted so hard, they do damage in so many ways. I know we all use them at times.
They pay staff and treat them badly, stories like some staff having to carry a bottle to pee in!
removes local jobs
They don't pay national tax correctly
They ruin our high street by not having to pay rent, undercutting small shops by massive bulk buying, avoiding local business tax. you wont see them buying kit for the school boy team!
I'm no expert, it's a competitive world, but if we all spent a little more locally perhaps as well it would help in so many ways. They make a fortune and don't even reward the ordinary people that help them make the money, just creating a few mega rich people at the top.
Probably many will disagree but try to think local as well!
Hard to believe the Bet365 boss earns (was paid) £469m in a single year, wouldn't it be good if her staff were all given a £1000 bonus, I'm sure she would still have a lot left! I believe more of the 'team' need rewarding, as well, when things are good.

You mean Denise Coates who donated £85m to charity last year and makes the biggest individual income tax contribution out of everyone in the land. In a year of Covid which had no sport for 2 months including no grand national and no euro 2020 created 470 jobs and didn't lay a single person off......yeah she is the enemy here!
And no its not hard to believe she is paid that much money, she earned every single penny of it and should be celebrated for her success not chastised by green eyed monsters!

She may be a great person who I'm sure supports many charities and does have a foundation. Just to slightly to correct you the £85 million into the foundation came from the company NOT her personally.
I'm all for jobs, I'm not against her, I'm not a 'green eyed monster' and feel success should be rewarded, to her staff as well.
Especially if they are on the minimum wage.
strange thing the company had reduced profits of only £197 million.
How many billions do you need though?
I'm more concerned with Amazon who it is known don't pay their taxes and do treat staff badly. To the detriment of the high street and all the implications of that.
We all have choices to make and my quote should be 'if we all spent a little more locally perhaps as well it would help in so many ways' is that not true?
A, ummm, nice screwdriver lots cheaper than everywhere else.

I just bought this - I’m not sure why or when I’ll use it but it seems a cool price and that
A tip for anyone a little obsessed with timbers like me (prob 6 or 7 pairs now) is to always check your size on Amazon every now and then. There will often be boots that are £100 in every size bar one where they’ll be like £50. It’s all about the timing and luck but worked everytime for me when I’ve bought.
