Translation into economics: "I think that costs of hiring someone in the UK should be high so that all the jobs move to India"
Anyway, you can't have an LMO regime even if you wanted one. The UK is in a single trading zone with the rest of the EU, and that means free movement of goods, capital and labour across the union.
Canada, on the other hand, is in NAFTA, which doesn't permit free movement of goods (all those customs people at the border ready to pounce with GST and PST demands on people who got their cars repaired in the US) and doesn't permit free movement of labour.

You seem to have misunderstood alot of what I have said. We are all entitled to our opinions, you have yours I have mine. And I would rather base mine on real life and what is happening all around me rather than what Politicians
and other people say.

Fact = Immigrates for what ever reason do get cheques to pay for cars.
Fact = They even get FREE driving lessons.
This is fact not hearsay. Why do I know this, I`m a Driving Instructor.

You see? Angela has caused us to argue. Even the spelling's going downhill.

I would rather be a bad speller than a rude person any day of the week.
But thank you for your opinion.

I'd rather be a realist than a puffed up inflated chintzy old ladies ballgown full of brain anaesthesia.

Well, I would rather be rude to a bigot than make and peddle false stories to make life miserable for immigrants.

Bigot
A person who is utterly intolerant of any differing creed, belief, or opinion.
Now does this remind you of some one?
If the only thing you can fall out with me is my spelling, on the subject, then who has WON.
Not once did I make any derogatory statement about you, I was pointing out facts that I know to be true, and if this upsets you maybe you should get out into the real world and open your eyes to what is going on around you.
I am certainly NOT a Bigot.
