What character says this to Piggy in Chapter 1?"You're no good on a job like this."

In Chapter 1 of "Lord of the Flies" by William Golding, the character who says, "You're no good on a job like this," to Piggy is Jack Merridew. This moment occurs during a scene where the boys are beginning to form their societal structure after being stranded on the deserted island. Jack's statement reflects the dynamics of power and leadership that are developing among the boys.

Jack, who is assertive and confident, quickly positions himself as a leader and often looks down on Piggy, who represents intellect and rationality but lacks physical prowess. This interaction highlights themes of social hierarchy, bullying, and the struggle for dominance that Golding explores throughout the novel. Jack’s dismissive attitude towards Piggy foreshadows the conflict that will arise later on as the boys’ civilization begins to break down.
