Open on Sundays

It is the retailers who really want to open on Sundays saying that it was their customers want. All they want to do is to maximise their profits. However people don't have enough money to shop 7/7, so if shops open on Sundays then there will be slack days on Monday, Tuesday and probably Wednesday as well, as has b een shown here in the UK. Shops are open 6 days a week and late in the evenings so if you want to shop there is plenty of time to do so without opening on Sundays. The people who lose out are the shop workers whose contracts state they have to work on a Sunday, usually alternate Sundays. No sign contract, no job!! All so that those who don't have a life can shop on a Sunday!!

Open on Sundays

Open on Sundays?Reform in France moves slower than a snail! Sarkozy promises reform,but caves in everytime someone waves a protest banner on the street.Lets turn the debate around - In reality the French will only be content when they have to work on Sundays and have the rest of the week off! But they would still complain! its in the French DNA They have nightmares about China and free trade!
