Quite right Hemingway, totally agree with you. I also agree with the people who are on strike to-day,as theirr firms are giving employment to foreigners and not locals.
I'm gonna be a bit contraversial here.... :o How many Brits are employed abroad by foreign companies ? If the Brits employed abroad were all expelled I think we would be suffering more than we are now with unemployment levels K-C |

If the Brits employed abroad were all expelled I think we would be suffering more than we are now with unemployment levels K-C What is certain is that Brits moved to Spain are coming back in their droves (according to the printed media) because 'living the dream' on the Costa Packet has turned sour due to, amongst other things, the collapse of the property market for UK buyers in Spain. Similarly, the printed media tells us Poles etc are returning to their native countries due to their either being no work in the UK or there is work but the salaries don't match up with the cost of living - unless you are prepared to live 12 to a room in a 2 up 2 down! A worrying situation all round. Regards Hemingway |

It's a fair point - I just think things like this must be on a level playing field reciprocal arrangement basis thats all. Brits working abroad are there because they have the required specialist skills, for the lifestyle/weather, to escape rip-off Britain OR for the tax free salary - in the latter case they probably ain't contributing a whole lot to the UK economy by not paying taxes here & not spending their disposable income here OR they could be sending money home to family each month, we can't be certain.

Morning All ( Up early Remy ?)
Interesting article in the Goan voice on rubbish in Goa as below, suggest you read it and there is a voting button at the bottom to "vote it up" "Russian tourists raise stink over garbage in Goa 22 May: Digital Journal. By Armstrong Vaz… Eighty percent of Goan tourists are from elsewhere in India; but the twenty percent who come from western cultures are more than familiar with Reducing, Re-using and Recycling… on Goan beaches and in hotels and restaurants, it’s hard enough finding a garbage bin, let alone a blue or green recycling one… more details.." |

maybe because you're not his constituent? - MP's aren't allowed to act for non-constituents, you should contact your own MP and they will contact any other MP or minister involved in the matter.
AndyD 8-)# I have also written to others and David Milband all have replied with the exception of Vaz We haven't been idle on this matter Andy I assure you |

In Sunday's Newspaper
If the MP's expenses scandal grates on all of you like it does on me, this won't gladden your heart one bit:
From the Homes section of the Sunday Times on 24/05/09 Keith Vaz(oline) went to the same establishment (John Lewis) to source his 22 cushions - 17 of them silk - for £480, plus a pair of leather armchairs and a foot stool for £2,614 A total & utter disgrace - but at least KV is consistant - consistantly a sh**house!
