Yes a Good Docu.

It Appears as Evan has stated
The Migrant Workers are more Hungry for Hard Work
and sadly even though they pay all UK Taxes
most of there money goes back to there €uro Homes.

The Local English can work but are less hungry
for that kind of Asparagus Farm hard work.


Sign Of The Times.

Is this more about how desperate people are in countries where conditions are much worse than the UK rather than showing up people in this country.

perhaps the mirror should be reflected on the governments of the countries that these migrants come from?

I don't get why the media try to portray an image of 'lazy brits'. Britons have done those type of jobs before they will do them again.

it is a lazy comparison. it is not comparing like for like. turn the tables and the results would be the same.

Well of course they will be, they are probably desperate and came here for a reason.

Mind you I do love the way we treat them same as us, regardless of where in the EU their family are resident, if they work in the UK they are entitled to claim Working Tax Credit, and Child Benefit.
