Good , now you know what it has been like in English cities for decades when bloody Scotsmen and Irishmen full of patriotism and drink made a bloody nuisance of themselves while hating the English and England but never quite enough to bugger off back home.

Around the corner is a Nails Studio. The staff have very good suntans, they rent the place from a bloke who also has a very good suntan. There is no way that the studio, which has been there for over 4 years, can be showing a profit, or a livelihood.The place is open for maybe four days per week. I see few customers. The staff drive BMWs. How do I report? |

Depends what you mean by free. https://www.theguardian.com/world/20...modern-slavery One night in August 2015, after a long shift at the Bubbles car wash in east London, Sandu Laurentiu was washing himself in the rat-infested shared flat provided by his employer. Shaip Nimani, 53, originally from Kosovo, had illegally bypassed the electricity meter at the property in Bethnal Green and tampered with the fuses to stop them blowing. The plumbing in the damp bathroom was not earthed. While he used the decrepit power shower, Laurentiu was electrocuted and killed. The death of the 40-year-old Romanian labourer renewed concern about conditions at thousands of hand car washes across the country. The washes, which have mushroomed in petrol stations, car parks and empty forecourts, offer cleaning for as little as £5. ______________________ https://www.thisismoney.co.uk/money/...lawmakers.html https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/art...-wash-car.html I guess some are just happy to get their car washed as cheaply as possible. Wonder if they get time to post to newsgroups while at 'work'? Well when I go past most of sitting playing with there phones about 5 sometimes more but no one or very few cars are seen at the car wash. I'd have thought that people would take their cars their after work. lok at the queue at this one. https://www.flickr.com/photos/whiskydave/44510735704/ |

Brian Problem there is it;s up to the EU and it;s not like theyvlie about anything is it. Don't forget that the final date was 29th March. or was it the 12th April, when we leave whether or not we have a deal. For some reason the EU wants us to have a deal, or is it they want us to remain ?, I've no idea what the EU want and it seems the EU aren't too sure either, otherwise why the extention for 6 months. Maybe we;l have another vote, obviously we can't allow racists as vote according to T i m as they aren;t real people, then there's harry who wonlt let black people vote or is it just muslims or those that dont; believ in his God, again I don't know.,Of course we know people might have changed their mind in what will be the last 3 years, but then peolpe do change their mind, which is why we have electrions every 4 or so years or as D. cameron put it, this is a once in a generation vote and he'll take notice of that vote, so how many more referedums should we have in this generation, again I don't know, it's not like its up to the voters in a referdum is it, because they aren't classed as people by some, and perhaps those that do change their mind more than once in a generation shouldn't be allowed to vote anyway :-) |

I don't have those figures, but I do have the ones for the local school by direct experience. 23 applicants and 26 places when our eldest son started there; 54 applicants and 26 places when his brother was due to start 3 years later. Over those three years a large number of big Victorian terraces in the area, including a number directly opposite the school were converted to flats/HMOs and the playground each morning changed from almost entirely people who'd grown up in the area to being around 30% full of (mainly) East Europeans. As we are 75 yards outside the catchment area, we had four months of worry, study of the situation and legal appeal to get him in - it being impossible for me to take or collect either of them as my work started too early and ended too late; while my wife could not get one to one school, one to another and the third to nursery, get a six hour working day in and then pick them all up, when two would finish at exactly the same time, but over a mile apart!

So far governments have failed to do that and even if they did at the moment, there would be a gaping hole in that we have no restrictions on the numbers coming from the EU. SteveW |

So why didn't we? Because we get people like a Christian friend of mine who think that it is our moral duty to allow as many immigrants into the country as want to come, so we can give them a "better life" and help them escape persecution back home. I prefer putting up signs saying "Sorry, the UK is now full" and that we choose *who* as well as how many immigrants are allowed in, on the basis of one in for one (emigrant) out, with everyone who wants to live here having to have a safe job to go to, rather than moving here speculatively. I would also like to see any non-UK people prohibited from taking money that they earn here out of the country where it has greater buying power back home: earn it here, spend it here. Does anyone have any statistics for the proportion of new houses that are being built which are for non-UK immigrants, compared with UK people who are setting up separate homes after a divorce/break-up. |

And the idea that paying a little more for those jobs will end the dole queue just plain daft. A little more is of little use if you can employ car cleaners for less than £2.50 an hour. Perhaps we could go back to employing kids on bob-a-job that would undercut all the low grade EU workers I doubt they'll work for 5p an hour. |

Perhaps with doctors and nurses it;s because the hours are too long and we in the UK do work longer hours than a lot of EU wrokers. There are a couple of different problems. With doctors, a lot are retiring early, because the government reduced the lifetime cap on pensions, so it makes more sense for them to retire early instead of continuing to contribute to their pension pot and being taxed heavily for it. With both doctors and nurses, we simply don't offer enough training places. A few years ago, the papers were full of stories of the government keeping nurse training places way below that required and of junior doctors, having completed their first 3(?) years of training, being unable to find anywhere in the UK to obtain placements to work and continue their training and so leaving for other EU countries. We got rid of the other practical skills and technical collges so everyone could go to university and sit behind desks, and if they could do that they were useless. Yes. No-one wanted to train people for manual, practical work when they could simply bring in someone ready trained from abroad. And the idea that paying a little more for those jobs will end the dole queue just plain daft. A little more is of little use if you can employ car cleaners for less than £2.50 an hour. Perhaps we could go back to employing kids on bob-a-job that would undercut all the low grade EU workers I doubt they'll work for 5p an hour. Many people are caught in a poverty trap. They know that if they get a minimum wage job, they will be little or no better off for a whole lot of effort; housing benefit will cease, as will council tax benefit. Only a little more per hour can make a difference though. However, what employer is going to pay that bit more, when they can get someone from abroad, at minimum wage? SteveW |

Why are they'flocking here to live in tents and run down buildings ? https://www.express.co.uk/news/uk/67...n-shanty-towns Why come here when all, it costs to build a home for a large family costs only £8000, when here it'll cost at least 500,000. We got rid of the other practical skills and technical collges so everyone could go to university and sit behind desks, and if they could do that they were useless. Quite. All the building trades workers in London seem to hail from eastern Europe now. And they ain't working for beads. One wonders then how they got their skills, could it be that they were taught and that for them memorising shakespear and how to get on in admin wasn't taught. Of course this has all happened while in the EU, coincidence ? And the idea that paying a little more for those jobs will end the dole queue just plain daft. A little more is of little use if you can employ car cleaners for less than £2.50 an hour. You seem absolutely fixated with car cleaners. Odd, given you don't own a car. Why car cleaners, well, when we were told that opening the boarders with eastern europe to get more health professionals, the first person interviewed coming off the ferry said "I can clean cars good" which didnlt sound like the sort of thing the porofessionals we were promised would say. Of course I could have mention those serving coffee, but I don't use thaose services either, or the sex industry. On friday night as I cut through an alley way there were two eastern europeans standing in the alley talking drinking beer smoking, they were in their 40s if not 50s, they weren't threatening, even if a bit loud and drunk, but I did wonder why they were standing their amonst a pile of dog ends. This was about 1:30am Friday night/saturday morning. It just seemed a strange place for them to hang out. But there were 3 of us so I wans't worried. But a couple of years ago a women was robbed and knifed there. It;s near to where a youth was shot last year too. Perhaps we could go back to employing kids on bob-a-job that would undercut all the low grade EU workers I doubt they'll work for 5p an hour. I get the impression most kids couldn't do the sort of jobs you did for that bob a job in the old days. I never did that, did you work down the mines at the age of 10 ? kids of today bloody useless, unless it;s something to do with a smartphone or knifing someone. |
