The tide may change..maybe it could go back to the days of the 80's when british workers ..mostly skilled british workers... found they had to leave this land and find work in Germany, Holland, France... people to easily forget this country was the pauper of Europe under a different Government!

Seems like joining the EU has left you guys, as we say over here, "up s**t creek without a paddle". Every sovreign nation should control its own destiny, set its own rules, and promote and prefer its own citizens.

And before you reach for the red button the jobs they do are not suitable for the average British household.They are for young single/just married kids that can live rough for a while and save a few bob to better themselves.

I don't want to live in a caravan with a load of fellow workers to pick fruit and veg or indeed live 7 to a house in order to keep Express Gifts going and I think I am not on my own in this opinion.

The employment of none European workers has I believe stopped but even this has It's drawbacks.
Rightly or Wrongly Europeans have the right to work here.
You really do talk utter rubbish some time that I wonder what planet you live on, open your eyes.

Well we will just have to agree to differ,I will carry on with my view that AT THE MOMENT members of the EU have a right to work here and you can continue with the(its my ball and if i can't bat first I'm taking it home)attitude.

Cant argue with that but while some one from Euroland will take jobs our own wont we are in a never ending circle. I will do owt to put coin in my pocket and have the satisfation of a job of somekind. Dont know about the Express Gifts senario so cannot comment on that.
