Yes an imbalance. China is made up of an influx of students and the need to tap into their huge markets. Australia and the US we have reciprocal agreements with. Hardly the same as Romania!

Well I'd say you are refusing to see because I don't see a solution to an increasingly marginalised semi skilled class from you.

Indeed. I think you have good intentions but are refusing to see what's in front of you.

So do I. But not from Romania which is where this imbalance stems from.

But that isn't true. If there are 500,000 jobs paying minimum wage and 1m British people looking for work, then that's fair enough - the best, most willing will end up with the work. That is already healthy competition, irrespective of the minimum wage. But when that 1m becomes 1.2m because...

Haha, your Labour party POURED money into health and education which I thought was great at the time, and is a good start to building a healthy economy. I'd be interested to know quite how you'd actually fuel a healthy economy. I agree that a reliance on financial services, and all the...

I'll sign up to that. What do you propose? In the meantime, lets protect OUR less skilled people from being priced out by workers who are here purely for economic reasons and will stomach a low standard of living in the short term.

This sort of policy takes decades to produce results, but we're dealing with today's reality. When the wall came down, there were all sorts of murmerings of discontent for YEARS, from West Germans aggrieved at paying for East German rebuilding and then being priced out of jobs locally by...

Post of the thread by a long way there Buzzer. :bowdown:

I feel your pain. I have the same pangs of embarrassment when daveinprague gets involved in every BNP thread.

Not going to answer the question then?

Ok, in the spirit of keeping it civil, how is Bob Crowe preaching one thing and doing the other? The facts are that he is a committed socialist, but earns £145k. Obviously that isn't what you mean though, as you'd be equally angry at any Tory voter earning under £30k. So what DO you mean? ???

And yet 100% correct. You really are a dick.

red flag groovy gang blah bore droan :tosser:

I don't know. For all you know, he told management he was away on holiday the week before the strike date, so please could he negotiate beforehand? :shrug:

You might not like the fact that Crowe is in a council house, but it's not really his fault is it? He's just living by a principle that you don't agree with. Perhaps we shouldn't have sold off our council house stock in the first place? Perhaps we should build some more? How anyone can be so...

Give me Bob Crow over Beach Hut any day. I know it's his job but Bob Crow will defend his members interests every single time. Beach Hut on the other hand couldn't give a **** about the plight of anyone else, unless of course he was personally affected.
