Thought Id start this one going because its rather dead on this board at the moment and I suppose all my usual muckers are either at the Stella tennis event watching Dim Tim (lose again) or at Henly Regatta eating cucumber sandwiches (they wish,...NOT).
Anyway please feel free to just talk to yourself blast away and let it go on any company or subject you wish. Just wish Id thought of this one before.
cheers GF.

i sort of agree with your last post, though assuredly there are a significant number of immigrants who absolutely work their socks off
as an example
if you take the hand-wash car guys, i bet you'll find nearly all of them of polish or lithuanian or serbo-croat or similar, and that good % of those will also have second(ary) jobs
why do we so rarely see young brits with that sort of initiative and work-ethic?

Registered to work , does it mean they are actually in work or registered to receive any benefits . And 170,000. and they mocked and shamed the only man who had the guts to tell us what would happen .

V ---- I'm not Au Fait with the system but I gather that if you register to work then you are entitled to certain benefits, perhaps someone who knows could enlighten us.

You just gotta love these fat-cat bosses threatening there will be huge job losses if we vote LEAVE, I don't recollect them being concerned when they shifted goodness knows how many jobs away from the UK to India, Czechoslovakia, China et al.

It just goes to show George that they couldn't give a flying fig about the Nations make up , heritage or where it's heading , as long as they themselves are seen as successful in their role .

Many of the large companies complaining about job losses could move their help lines back from Bombay.

It's not just business either . Sir John Nott says the Miltary leaders who signed a letter of staying in EU are wrong , our security depends on NATO not the EU . article in Telegraph . War hero felt pressured by no 10 , into signing pro europe letter .

I think I'm wasting my time on you Freda , I don't think they came in such vast numbers in such a short space in time , if you are bored why don't you go down to your local doctor or to nearest Hospital , school , job centre and explain to them your concerns and needs for these people .

Vicky,
Pop into you nearest hospital and check the nationalities of doctors. nurses, physios and other staff.

Also, the strength of a country is not its armed forces but its economy. The willingness of each of the EU countries coming to the aid of one another, not selfish self-centred little isolationist principles as some appear to laud and is something many hope for and has been achieved over the last 25-30years.
Of course, there are problems with the EU but have the guts to face up to them and gradually resolve them rather behave like destructive ill-tempered schoolboy hooligans
who want their own ways.

Tell that to Greece and Cyprus and indeed the UK.

I know jimmy that loop he's on needs updating , the doctors in these places are complaining about the influx in various countries and saying they are at breaking point . In Germany they say that they need armed guards because the nurses get threatened by these people , yes even those wonderful Syrians . But they are only nurses aren't they who cares .

JB,

You shouldn't post selfies of yourself.
Somebody might offer to care for you.
Perhaps, an immigrant.
Hear some are very tolerant of the less fortunate!

The one size fits all Euro benefited one country above all others, Germany. They needed higher interest rates whereas the majority of the remainder needed much lower rates, the Euro gave Germany a distinct advantage over most if not all other countries in the Euro. So to say each country were willing to aid one another is absolutely ludicrous.
