A football fan who spent six weeks in a coma after being knocked unconscious in an 'absolutely freak accident' involving a stray football at a match has made an astonishing recovery. Martyn Maidment, 59, a divorced father of three, has enjoyed a joyful reunion with his sons and grandchildren after finally opening his eyes. He has been sitting up in bed watching the Euros. Mr Maidment, a lifelong Scunthorpe supporter, was standing on the terraces with his son Ben, waiting to watch their beloved team play their last match of the season at Gloucester when he collapsed after being struck by a wayward ball. Mr Maidment - who works for B and T Associates at Manby, Louth, as a delivery driver and factory worker - was rushed to intensive care in Bristol, where family members from Lincolnshire made 400-mile round trips to be at his bedside.

Tyson Foods slapped with civil rights complaints over 'un-American' migrant hiring bonanza

www.dailymail.co.uk, May 29, 2024
America First Legal, a conservative group, filed several civil rights complaints against the $54 billion firm on Wednesday, saying it offered perks to migrants that it denied to US citizens. Tyson faced a boycott in March from conservatives, who were angry that the company was axing 1,300 workers at an Iowa pork plant while offering 'job-and-lawyer' packages to migrant newcomers in New York City. The company says it does not favor migrant labor over Americans.

Tyson Foods dumps 87BILLION gallons of toxic waste including cyanide, blood and feces into US rivers and lakes - enough to fill 132,000 Olympic-size pools

The toxic water would cover 165 square kilometers to a depth of two meters and fill three Olympic-sized swimming pools every hour. But the study by the Union of Concerned Scientists looked at just two percent of meat processing plants nationwide leaving the total figure terrifyingly uncertain. The report's authors slam feeble federal regulation and state houses in the pocket of a 'Big Ag' which can pollute with impunity. 'As a multibillion-dollar company, Tyson can treat even hefty fines and penalties for polluting the environment as simply the cost of conducting business its way,' they wrote. 'This has to change.'

Iowa mayor warns of 'damage' from Tyson Foods cutting plant and 1,300 jobs - but says meat-packer is NOT replacing American workers with cheaper migrants

Tyson's departure sent shockwaves throughout his city of 8,000 residents, where a local economy of plant workers, hog farmers, and feed suppliers was under threat. But Cavanaugh said he did not believe Tyson was laying off US employees for cheaper foreigners, as many of those working at the soon-to-be-shuttered plant were themselves migrants. Tyson, Perry's city's largest employer, announced earlier this month that it would shut down its aging plant this June. Any employees are being offered jobs at the company's other plants in Iowa, which includes the state of Iowa.

In the midst of the boycott, Tyson Foods denies abandoning American workers from the closed Iowa plant to hire migrants

Tyson Foods said in a tweet that they wanted to set the record straight and that the allegations against asylum seekers were completely inaccurate. Consumers had been advised not to buy their products as a result of the closure of plants in Iowa, Virginia, Arkansas Indiana, and Missouri by campaigners. Tyson had been looking for asylum seekers in New York, providing $16.50-an-hour wages and free immigration lawyers, alleging the company had abandoned US-born workers for cheaper migrant labour.

Tyson Foods was sued for sacking American meat packers and replacing them with 'illegals', according to a Florida lawmaker who was too afraid to ask questions about the'modern-day slavery' scandal

www.dailymail.co.uk, March 21, 2024
Anna Paulina Luna, a MAGA representative, has accused the struggling meat and poultry company of abandoning US employees in favour of cheaper 'indentured' labourers from around the world who are 'afraid of deportation.' Tyson denies dismissing Americans in favour of asylum seekers, but conservatives haven't stopped them from branding them unpatriotic and leading a tyranious boycott of the company's various supermarket stores. A large farming operation recently laid off all of their American wage workers in order to recruit people who are migrant workers,' a.k.a. Luna said in her X/ Twitter post on Thursday that illegals are cheap labour. They are absolutely firing Americans because they don't want to pay American employees.'

According to a report, a multimillion dollar fund manager had dropped Tyson Foods, claiming that the meat giant's dismissal of US employees to recruit 42,000 asylum seekers is the 'woke liberal takeover of America.'

Bill Flaig, CEO and co-founder of the $79 million American Conservative Values Fund (ACVF), told DailyMail.com that he has withdrawn from Tyson and will not buy any more shares in the firm. Customers in the United Kingdom are boycotting Tyson because reports that the company is closing down plants and layoff employees while recruiting tens of thousands of refugees – as well as recruiting lawyers for the company's new recruits. According to Flaig, this action 'exposes their shareholders to backlash from one of the day's most controversial political topics.' 'I'm not positive other institutional investors will follow Tyson's boycott, but politically conservative investors are increasingly aware that they will fight the woke liberal takeover of America by investing in America,' he told DailyMail.com.'

Consumers are being encouraged to avoid buying Tyson products amid a rash of closures of poultry- and meat-processing plants throughout Iowa, Virginia, Indiana, and Missouri. They refer to Tyson's attempts to recruit thousands of asylum seekers in New York, offering $16.50-an-hour wages and free immigration assistance to employees who were born in the United States. America First Legal, a conservative activism group formed by former Trump administration officials, warned Tyson that it could be breaking the rules by favouring foreign-born employees over Americans.
