Be aware of unscrupulous shop sellers which use zero hours contracts

[pmc7401]

I presume this is fine to post now*, since I've removed the name of the 'shop' in question, although one could argue that if the 'shop' had done nothing wrong, they have nothing to feel ashamed about, do they? I also confirm I am not reporting any violation, listing policy issues, or feedback dissection.

This should also open the discussion re concerns of ebay aiding these businesses, by allowing high street chains which are guilty of using zero hours contracts to trade on ebay, as by doing so ebay becomes a part of the problem by indirectly supporting this.

*"Guidelines state: Naming and shaming of members not present in a discussion (listing policy issues, feedback dissection, reporting violations via the Boards etc) is not and never has been permitted on the eBay.co.uk boards."

Why do you say that? - the Bill's not faced any opposition so far and no suggestion that the Lords will block it - on that basis should be enacted before Christmas.
