Poles in U.K.

by rms35 @ 2008-03-12 - 12:31:45

BBC 2 Tuesday.The most striking part of this program,for me,were the British fellows saying the Poles earned 50p and hour and another £2.50. And they were jobless and WANTED to work.But when told they can earn £7.00 an hour--FOR WHAT--picking and packing veges they laughed and said NO WAY.One Pole said the British are too lazy to work and benefits ????:yawn:The Poles would not encourage others to come if there were no jobs for them in this wonderful land of honey ! It happened in the 60's when all the London transport was taken over by the Black immigrants and Heathrow airport cleaning,etc by the Pakistanis.Come on Brits GET WORKING and stop lolling about and complaining.

I suspect there is something more subtle going on and its the other way round: its not that British men won't do a job and so we turn to the immigrants, its that once a job starts getting done by immigrants, British men don't want to do it so much: it becomes a low status job in their eyes. I think some if this is about the way the British like to form tribes at workplaces: once they see immigrants working in a place they know they are not going to have the same camaraderie they seek. No amount of management top down cajoling can recreate these feelings of 'belonging' through their artificial team building exercises. Add to that the 'diversity' training, PC language requirements and the job satisfaction of being part of a gang of mates has gone for many working class blokes.

I read this with interest.I thought the word "working class" was not used anymore.May I be facetious and say todays "NO working class" is more like it.I live in Cornwall and am appalled at the amount of foreigners that are brought in every year to pick daffodils and strawberries.Yet hundreds do not accept jobs offered to them by Jobseeking---WHY--because it is infra dig to pick Daffodils ?? Why work when you can be paid to buy cigarettes,booze, have irresponsible sex---yes the government will pay for this too. Are my upper middle class opinions showing ?? In this supposedly non racial country men should be happy to work shoulder to shoulder with the foreigners.Maybe not--are these foreigners putting them to shame for NOT wanting to work ? Rant ended.
