Ah but we don't have our own version of BAJR over here to badger the powers that be (that I am aware of) and the whole set-up is different even between N.Ireland and the Republic. Have to say laying people off at Christmas to avoid paying the statutory three days holiday pay is common - but we threatened to walk on a job that was seriously behind once and they spared us. Apart from that I was unemployed anyway over Christmas the other times...
