Seeing as the last discussion on here re migration was locked due to it being on the wrong thread I thought we could continue it here.
I find it an interesting debate that has many facets due to all manner of reasons. It cant be denied that some people are simply xenophobic but some have personal reasons for being against migrating workers so come on lets have your opinions and reasons on Eastern Europeans working for next to nothing while unemployment here continues to soar ! I have already stated that I am on the fence over this because I have weighed up the pros and cons of migration but early indications from the other thread left me thinking that this could be an interesting debate ! It could be an idea to read through my original link below before you post !
I’d be a hypocrit to be against it because I have worked a lot in other countries and think it’s great that anybody can go anywhere in Europe to work for a while.
Time for the really controversial comment that a few people are really going to hate, but if you have knuckled down and become really good in your field of work, you wouldn’t worry about anybody else taking your job, be it English, Polish, robots or them little green buggers from Mars. The country as a whole has been far too lapse in recent years thinking that we will be prosperous because we have been for centuries. Unfortunately, times are changing and other countries are fast catching up to us and overtaking us. Unfortunately, it’s often far too easy to blame everybody else but ourselves when we don’t get what we want from life.

Let the abuse begin…
It’s a bone of contention debate so expect it to get heated !
Not giving my views as it’ll get taken the wrong way by people who just want to start an argument with me, or they understand where i’m coming from (no pun) but choose to view it in a different context, just because it was posted by sirdavewhelan!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I’m in total agreement with you.
My argument on the last thread was with people presuming Eastern European are coming to the UK to sponge off society, when in actual fact a vast majority of them are coming here to work, and work bloody on the whole, to earn money.

You can’t compete with someone who wants to work bloody goodpost
Migrants are fine, as long as they contribute to the UK economy, not take from it. I have no problem with people coming, using our hospitals, schools etc as long as they pay tax in this country.
To those who are completely against it – think what the premier league would look like without all the migrants on the pitch….

You will probably find that these migrant workers have filled the void left by the work shy unemployed who refuse to see any benefit (no pun intended) in taking a job and no matter what the governments try to do will more than likely find an excuse. In an ideal world we will see the young coming into the job market and taking these jobs.
