SIR – It appears that Jamie Oliver prefers hard-working immigrants than whinging Brits, who, he says, complain about working long hours.
Well, Jamie, I don’t think you would have much of a business without the whinging Brits.
It’s they who buy your books and eat in your restaurants, and rightly so.
No one should have to work 80 hours a week.
It’s not right. Junior doctors used to work 80 to 100 hours a week but now the NHS realises it wasn’t good for the health of the patient or the young doctors.
If you’ve got someone working 80 hours a week they get tired and that’s when accidents happen.
So, Jamie, if you need 80 hours a week covered, it may pay to employ two whinging Brits rather than one immigrant from the former Eastern block.
