The Transport and General Workers Union claims Hungarian migrants employed at Domino's Pizza franchises in Derby have taken home virtually no pay for months because of illegal deductions from their wages. Tonight we put these allegations to Domino's Pizza live on the programme.

I probably get one pizza once a year thats going to stop now!!

And I know hundreds of Tom and Jerry's who wouldn't know a day's work if it bit their friggin' leg off.  A good w*** and a hard frost would kill 'em.

Cambourne I have just seen the report on Newsnight.  Like you we hardly ever have take-away pizza but when we do we certainly won't be getting it from Dominoes.  Must be soul destroying to work all week then find you owe them.

Hang on a minute! It was the franchise holders that were ripping these people off.
I'm willing to bet that these employers do not have English parents.

Then I suppose I'm an illegal immigrant with a Scots mother! Really, nationality has nothing to do with honesty or lack of it.

I BET IT IS.
sweat shops, illegal imigrant vegetable pickers, winkle pickers, the list goes on an on.

There are not that many nationals that flout the employment laws compared to the imigrant population who tend to rip their fellow countrymen off.

Now that these people have had the courage to complain, watch the rest of them come to light.
