Spot on.
Gordon Brown made me bash my head into the car steering wheel several times as I was driving and heard him attack the strikers for being unhelpfull in the current ecconomic situation (or words to that effect). Unbeliveable!!! He's the bl**dy idiot who has been in charge of our ecconomy and cr*p immigration policy for the last 10 years.....grrrrrrðŸ˜
Immigration is permitted at the levels it's been at for years in order to keep the goverment within their inflation figures. It's a sham, Labour are a sham and they have been found out. I'm for the strikers in this particular case, definitely.

The UK gets flooded with cheap labour and has to send the lions share of troops to afghanistan were all the europeen heads of state recognise is a terrorist training ground for a spear head war against the west and the largest producer of heroin etc flooding the west, if they want to send cheap labour here where are there troops ? Smacks to me of f'''ck the british, and gordon brown and his cronies are betraying us left ..right ..and centre!!!!!! Up the strikers, i say!!!

Nice skewed view of the world labour market you have.
Back in the day, companies used to have to buy slaves from africa to run their equipment if they wanted to pay their workers small amounts of money due to the relatively low population numbers. Today we find huge population numbers around the world. In the countries with large populations and high u ...[text shortened]... e middle-class. The root cause is world population growth.
Buy a condom, save your job.
You call my view skewed but yet nothing you explained contradicted anything I said.

You made it seem like a natural form of "progress".
Perhaps i went too far with the semantics.

It is progress, and like all progress there are losers and winners. Progress means that the winners are greater than the losers. Those caught up in the side of the losers will unfortunately have to make adjustments/retrain or petitiion the govt for assistance.
But in my book, economies opening up, labour moving easily/freely across boundaries, production increasing, prices of goods coming down means overall increase in standard of living in all countries.

Originally posted by PalynkaYes, certainly there will be bigger and lesser perspetcives in this situation. Brown is being all "global" and Obamaesque, chuntering on about "the dangers of protectionism" (which I agree with him on btw), but protectionism begins at home and begins at the top of your plan not when it's all gone breasts-up.
All this because a French company made a deal with an Italian contractor who use their own staff. 😞
