The Guardian: Foreigners taking our jobs? Not much chance of that now.

Reminds me of my trip to Brighton - so many cafes and bars are advertising for staff and only partly open (one fish and chips shop i had the misfortune of going to had just the owner working, it was terrible!) because they didn't have the waitresses, bar star and kitchen staff they need to fully open.

Maybe this is why we imported labour in the first place?

I don't believe I've ever heard anyone say "Foreigners taking our jobs" ..... Never.....

I certainly have. Well, they didn't say "foreigner", they weren't that polite.

Bloody Poles, coming over here with their work ethic.

With the way brexit is going perhaps that might be where we are heading. Voted sanctions on ourselves.

Can't remember exactly what they said, long time ago in a bank in London.

I do remember of one fella saying we will fight them on the Beaches. It was Foreigners he was talking about.

"Foreigners taking our jobs"

It's a popular Daily Wail trope. It has the gammons foaming at the mouth when ever they read it.
