Uk is again blaming immigration for unemployment.You'd think they knew what they were doing at this point in time.Strange thing is,it's only immigration from outside Europe.That needs explaining to me.Is it that immigrants from outside work and Europeans don't?

Jan 10th, 2012 - 11:12 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Geo - very happy with the migration to the UK. Non-EU students come to the UK and each pay about £12k - £20k a year in university tuition fees (which pays a lot of my salary) and then stay and contribute to the UK economy.
Multicultural Britain is fantastic and there are plenty of Brazilian and Argentine restaurants around the place. Only a certain kind of Argentinean student comes to the UK though. The ones with intellectual capacity and money, not many of them about unfortuantly. Lots of Brazilians on the way though due to those scholarships.
And all those nasty ones , who live in a deluded bubble can stay in argentina,

Jan 11th, 2012 - 04:00 am - Link - Report abuse 0Thank God! English food sucks :-)
Beef is off the mark.Immigration is a factor in the high unemployment which costs far more than the earnings from tuition fees.That what his government is claiming.
Jan 11th, 2012 - 11:25 am - Link - Report abuse 0Like his love for jaguar(is that a south American animal),he is living in the past and not keeping up with changes.Life is always changing it waits for no one.
No, the government is not claiming that. The report was from an independent advisory committee.
Jan 11th, 2012 - 08:29 pm - Link - Report abuse 0I think there is probably some link but you have to question if some UK workers would do the jobs immigrants are doing. Speaking to farmers in the area I live, they were letting fruit remain unpicked, as no one local would do the work, before they were able to employ immigrants,
Incidentally, when I was in Mendoza they said they had the exact same problem. Generally, local people were not prepared to do the manual work on farms and they relied heavily on workers from Bolivia. They were cheaper and worked harder.
I think you'll find ElaineB that harvesting has always been a labour problem because it's demand is seasonal and therefore a pool of unemployed is required.Once labour moved into cities for work the pool of labour was in the wrong place.However I've never heard of a fruit picker living in million dollar houses.Isn't an advisory committee reporting to the government and are they all going to be dismissed for not doing the job correctly or is the gov/t accepting it's findings.
