I see our arch hypocrite from OS, who says that he never comments on anything to do with Britain, is true to form. I did not reply to your last post, as I found it all so confusing, which probably explains why in the past you have to claimed to several posters that they have misunderstood you.

That may or may not be true on an individual basis, but the impression you were attempting to give was that your ancestors were highly qualified people, who did not deserve to be spat at . .And they were not such, were they? And of course you have unsurprisingly ignored the point about your...

You did not say they had no skills, admittedly, hence my use of the word presumably. So they were navvies, were they? with no real skills at all, other than digging, as I thought. Fascinating views for someone who says they have leftie leanings -we will take anyone who can help us, but if you...

With great respect, your posts do at times seem somewhat muddled. On the one hand, you are grateful that your ancestors, with presumably no skills, were able to come here and work, then you criticise present-day employers for having folk flipping burgers. What you mention about having your way -...

Thanks goodness for that -just as I was about to build a wall around the house. Whilst I also accept that migrants understandably also want to better themselves, this does not of course mean that we should automatically agree that they can enter Britain to increase their standard of living. You...

OK, I accept your point about a point of fact and that you were trying to enlighten everyone . . .But your middle para; what are you trying to say? Is this part of the enlightenment for the reader?! Yes, we no doubt are the ancestral products of past generations and migrants, and the current...

I am not quite sure how your "point of fact" is supposed to contribute to the debate about one's own property. You were responding to someone who quite rightly pointed out that private property is precisely that, and one's right to this, is the cornerstone of civilisation. Travel etc are also...

Not sure if you are joking or not - depends on the status of Newhaven, I suppose! Hastings often gets lambasted as being a dump, and I think that might also be the case for Newhaven -is this a fair assessment of Newhaven? I do occasionally go through Newhaven to the Albion, and if I am honest...

They say Moulescoombe is lovely in summer, so move the family there and be close to the stadium . .

Perhaps fair access would be better - I am sure that you would not want equal access, if some dosser were able to acquire a house like yours, for which you had strived for years. Nimbyism always gets on people's goat, until they are faced with a dilemma themselves. Much as I wanted a fitting...

The fact that you have not seen it does not mean that there will be no action taken against the firm. I would not mind betting that the rates of pay were lower as well, given the hold over the workers. People working here illegally should be deported, or else when does it stop, and the firm too...
