This country is only better for having foreign people. I am Chinese, my parents came here in the 1960's and worked and still work hard as hell in their 70's. My wife is Spanish, and she also works very hard - what I am saying is that we are all a valuable asset and credit to this society. Which brings me to my next point - We recently moved from London to Herts following my job. My wife decided to find a new job in Herts. Of course, having paid tax and National Insurance it was only fair to go and claim jobseekers allowance. And what do you see down at the job centre? Scumbag natives in hoodies swearing and spitting and holding their hands out for money. This whole subject really riles me - the state of the scum in this country and certain people on here are 'trying' to point the finger at foreigners?!?!?!?

Some of them already do!Bleddy turnips!
I don't know if anyone saw Rori Brenmen's:sp: programme last week.A conversation between two couples on a dinner table was quite amazing!
PS- I have been very careful selecting words here.There's no chance of zapping.You can carry on yapping

Sounds like a recipe for disaster to me - the peasants will revolt

I have no problem with foreigners coming here to work within reason and it benefits the UK.
However, to use an analogy, one bad review of a restaurant/hotel will be taken notice of and will cancel out 20 good ones.
There are far too many bad types of foreigner here and they need to be sorted out. While many have flocked to the UK to take up legitimate opportunities, the same freedom afforded to them has been taken advantage of by criminals and spongers and has virtually been unchecked.

My slant is we have more than enough people on this little Island as it is. If we do not close the flood gates we will be over-run.
I have no issue with the people who come in and work hard, they are all well and good in moderation BUT not when it happens on mass.
The building industry is suffering badly. My friends firm used to emply 6 kitchen fitters on reasonable wages. Now they emply 15 outsiders on a pittance and 2 fitters to go round fixing the outsiders bodges...... You can say what you like about that but when I see a friend out of work and 2 Poles guys just off a boat in work it grinds at you .........

Maybe you'd prefer a communist or socialist utopia or perhaps a Marxist state?

Funny how knowone will ever believe that Polish workers in general get paid the same as an english equivalent it just that They work Hard and always turn up for work. Frankly English are work shy lazy barstewards compared to most of the world. The fear comes from competition in the work force.
