out of work

[gmb45]

is that all?
you've got to wonder how bad the situation will get before the government realise that they've got to send all these poles and asylum seekers back where they came from.
I'm not saying that they are the sole cause of the problem but they are not helping.
I live in a small town with a population of approximately 80,000 people. around 7,000 of these are polish. around 5,500 people are unemployed. The poles that live in my town are not the only ones that are taking the jobs. they are also being employed from outside the area.
and, on top of this, some of the towns largest employers are being encouraged to relocate their business in an effort to ease unemployment in other areas. so, even if all the poles were sent packing, the unemployment situation isn't going to get any better.
Last month, when i was signing on, the woman i was seeing laughed at me when she saw on her screen what type of work i was looking for. literally laughed.
i'm not looking for any unusual type of work, just any kind of manufacturing, warehouse or general labour.
she also told me that this is the most secure she has been in any job herself as so many are unemployed.
Last time i signed on, every desk had a new employee being trained up. it seems to me that the jobcentre are the only ones taking on new staff.
But, at the end of the day, what do you expect to change? What are the government going to do about this?
their pockets are full, what do they care?
Unfortunately the kind of person we need in power is exactly the sort of person that would not be allowed to come into power.

to right m8 we need a prime minster thats got some bottle a tell europe to fcuk off and stop telling us what we must do all the time this country used to be great we used to battle our way through anything then came europe down hill ever since.

we need someone who will put england before any other fcker. surely its possible to have a good relationship with other nations without having to fanny about pandering to their every whim.
and i say england rather than britain because scotland and wales pushed for their independence and devolution and as far as i'm concerned should stand on their own two feet.

[shortyball]

And the only party that are willing to promote or withstain the actions you have mentioned are the BNP.
Which do you choose? A leader to bring britain back to the forefront of economic power and bring some somewhat lacking Britxh patronism. Or do we keep one eyed gordan, that isnt going to make anything better but is trying to stem the bleeding.
Each has there positive bits, and each have there negatives. But look at the increase in BNP backing, not for racism or that king od thing. But for britain been british. Ask all those workers who were on strike due to their jobs going to overseas workers and ask who they will be voting for.

[Mr Pumpy]

I have to agree with everything that has been said.

[melloned]

Think we should start by concreting in the channel tunnel , as it's a fastrack to a free meal ticket for life , as we have been reminded of by the leaders of France and Germany .
Our border controls are a joke and our benefits system looks after those who have never contributed , and neglects those who have .

I'm not a racist , nor against free movement of labour between countries , but it's got to be on a fair basis .
Move to Poland , Albania , Romania , etc , etc and ask for political asylum and you're more likely to be beaten with a stick , jailed , then deported instead of helped .

If this isn't the case why does every impoverished nation choose the UK as it's end destination .
I've said enough , i'll say no more and log off before i explode !!!!

how about this then after working and paying my stamp all my working life i moved to greece, i went back for a short holiday two years ago. i got a really bad infection in my ear and went to the local hospital for treatment, they asked for my address and i gave them my greek address. then they said i would have to pay 25 pounds for treatment as i didnt have a uk address, i looked around and i think i was to only person there who spoke english and i payed all my life, and yet someone fresh off the boat with a uk address gets it for free so whats wrong with this picture !!!

About right Mate , ?25 sounds a bargain for any sort of treatment here , it cost me ?40 for a filling at my local (if you can find one !) , NHS dentist last month , (i've paid full stamp for 40 yrs ).
A Slovakian family with 4 kids who've been here less than 2 weeks get it free !!
Somethings seriously wrong !!!!
