M & B Haulage

Just heard on news that one person killed and 2 others stabbed at M & B Haulage at Ravensthorpe, near Leeds. I wonder whats gone on there then! Disgruntled driver perhaps? :open_mouth: Maybe Rob K could provide some info as I think he lives at Ravensthorpe.

Yes, their place is just down the road from my gaff. I haven’t heard anything, but then again I don’t watch or listen to the news.

Can’t comment on the incident but I do know that the money they offer is extremely poor and the driver’s drive accordingly, ie. pay peanuts, get monkey’s.

Can’t see anything on google news for the area yet.

rob i know you probably say half of what you do on here to get a reaction, but is that really necessary - 2 blokes who probably do their best to run a company in todays climate (and obviously care about ā€œourā€ industry) are hospitalised and one of them’s son is DEAD and you prattle on about the wages they pay? get a grip man :angry:

Sorry, I will ask for express permission next time jj72 before posting anything. I didn’t realise I needed your permission to speak freely, but now I realise that I do.

i think your out off order jj, rob is entitled to to say they pay crap wages if he wants that is totally irrespective of what has happened and rob is entitled to his opion. fair enough there has been 2 injurys and 1 fatality but as i have been to this yard about 15-20 times as has rob with containers i cannot see the problems about terroity as stated it is clearly marked up as m-b waste and enclosed with a brick wall that has been there as long as i have known it ( which is 3-4 years ).

how many people commenting has been thereā– ā– ?

:confused: i’m totally and utterly non-plussed by your contribution JD?!?! and yes i’ve been there many times, used to drink in the ravenswharfe pub nearby every other friday night :open_mouth:

Got to say jj i think theres nothing wrong with what Rob has said there, I HATE having to agree with him but he hasnt said anything out of order.

jammymutt:
I HATE having to agree with him

:open_mouth: :open_mouth: :cry: :cry: :cry:

As I see it, Rob K has made a valid point in relation to my thread in that crap wages could cause greivances, plus as this is still a free country (for the time being anyway :slight_smile: ) he has every right to say what he did :sunglasses:

I think i can say honestly say that Rob k is older than 8 years old,as he would not have is hgv class 1 licence.
I also agree with everyone else that as backed him up on this thread.
