UK, Ireland /
Brits to protest against foreigners in the workforce, including Poles. [289]
i noted you were the one that didn't take note of the words i used so you your question for me to form an argument is unnecessary because of your lack of attention.
I paid perhaps too much attention to your words and I dont wish to repeat myself however……
You mentioned Evolution and attempted to use it as a reason to oppose migration then softened your stance suggesting that migration could be on an ad hoc basis ie “phone the agency”. This to me demonstrated your misunderstanding of both Evolution and economic policy. Migration (internal and external) doesn’t work that way, people will not permanently move for temporary jobs unless they are young, stupid or have a particular skill they can sell overseas. Then there are the people of independent means. If you wish to discuss evolution start another thread.
More British people move overseas than Eastern Europeans arrive the rest come from the commonwealth. The British birth rate is under 2.1 children per woman. Without migration the population of your country is falling, how do you generate enough to support the ageing population and everything else? You suggested some solutions and as I said, they (if effective) have a massive time lag plus need massive investment before they begin to bare fruit, in the meantime what do you propose should happen?
A small question…..Do you oppose migration in both directions?
The Ex Communists in the English labour party (as you said) are driving the business model of economic growth where the maximisation of profit means the reduction of labour costs and this somehow is supposed to benefit society, It was George H Bush who described this as Voodoo economics and I agree with him. Are you suggesting state planning, protectionism or something else?
Its impossible to know what you think except you don’t like immigration and being called a Racist. I already said that opposing migration is not racist, I didnt like having to migrate and would take exception to someone calling me a Racist but I believe that I could defend my stance without whining.
The problems around migration need to be addressed beyond send them all home. The salami slicing of migrants into good migrants and bad migrants is racist and patronising in the extreme.
People concerned about their lives are obviously not concerned about migration or they would have been protesting in good times as well as bad. Its not enough to say they are impotent quite apart from that being patronising it’s the slippery slope to bonkers theories revolving around the New World Order and other such crap.
The economic muck that this right wing developed world, spoiled child syndrome, has delivered has done more harm than good. Then the business community, who broke the post war consensus, demanded to be subsidised and were, showing themselves to be what they truly are, snake oil salesmen.
