There was a program on tv(hidden camera) about a month before the referendum
on the home care for the elderly, and it showed you these 'foreign' care workers
going into these old peoples homes, faffing about on their mobiles, sitting on their
arses then fricking off 10 minutes before their allotted time, plus there was one or
two that failed to give the old folk their medication.

cynic 5147, Its because these jobs are being advertised abroad that the
indigenous workers can't get them.

that's bollocks!
of course "indigenous workers" can get these jobs, though many will not be prepared to work the hours for the pay on offer ..... i'll revert to my usual of courier drivers and agricultural workers and similar
it was your comment about the housing that was totally fatuous
oh jeepers ..... now we have post 5149

"that's bollocks!

Not if if they're advertised in countries abroad, and on the one hand you say
they can get these jobs, then you go on to denigrate them by claiming they
would'nt want to work for less money and longer hours....Would YOU?
You also seem totally oblivious to the fact that foreign workers come here and
then 4/6/8/10 are sharing one house.
Not only is it hard for indigenous workers to find employment, they have to put
up with zero hours, or temporary or short term work, it also means there is a lack
of choice so its no good saying if you don't like your present employment find some
thing else.
And what's my comment about the housing that was totally fatuous,,,Please explain?

As to...
"ho jeepers..... now we have post 5149

Yes I thought it was unbelievable if i hadn't seen it with my own eyes, after
all they are angels and we need someone to look after our old folk, and it wouldn't
look good if it was brought out into the publics gaze that if this is what we import
then I for one won't be asking for home help from our foreign 'friends'..
And judging by your testy manner i'd say your lycra cycling shorts are getting
too tight from the good life you lead...LMFAO!!

VoilĂ ... Before was the fence, now the Wall ........next try to keep them out in big numbers, but will the refuges have anything under the sleeve in the future! ........
Work on Calais wall to start this month, Britain says
LONDON, Sept 7 (Reuters) - Work on building a wall in the northern French port of Calais to try to stop refugees and migrants from jumping aboard trucks bound for Britain will begin this month, according to British officials.
Immigration minister, Robert Goodwill, told lawmakers that security was being stepped up in Calais, home to the "Jungle" camp where thousands of migrants fleeing war and poverty in the Middle East and Africa hope to cross the English Channel to Britain.
"The security we're putting in in the ports is being stepped up with equipment," Goodwill said on Tuesday, referring to a 17 million pounds ($22.75 million) package of security measures agreed by Britain and France in March this year.
"We are going to start building this big new wall as part of the 17 million package that we are doing with the French ... We've done the fence and now we're doing the wall."
The wall, which is expected to be four metres (13 ft)high and be built along both sides of a 1-km (0.6 mile) stretch of the Rocade port approach road, should be completed by the end of this year.

How stupid and waste of money. Have they never heard of a ladder, to climb over the wall?

I can remember the time of barb wire on the coastal beaches to keep the enemy out.
Unfortunately, the UK has its now has its own enemy within the UK "borders" who are wanting to put the wire up.
I wonder what it will cost to patrol the coastlines to prevent the other "enemy" ie. the "immigrants" from landing and invading the UK this time.

Probably no more than all the money WE would spend giving them a house and paying them to live on for the rest of their lives .

Looks very much like the EU's trade deal with the US is, at best, on hold. Gone to the back of the queue it seems. Now that leaves the field open for the UK but apart from the sunshine and Apple, do we really need anything from the USA?
