Old retort by Tebbite sneered by the left said "My dad got on his bike and looked for work" Why cant people move to areas where there is work why do we need to import workers.

Because are benefits are too generious.

Re: Benefits Britain!

Those coming into this country will take work that our population won't. Simple as that.

Just oppersite there's a small block of flats mainly 2 bedrooms the odd 3 bedroom , in one of the two bedroom flats there was 27 Eastern Europeans living , they long not been evicted , but around here it's quite common finding dozen or so Eastern Europeans living in cramp conditions , but why the do it is to keep living cost down , and Send money back to their home lands , so they will work on a building site for peanuts as their out goings are very small, were as many of my mates are married , got kids but the wages doesn't even pay the rent in some cases , in london a labour was on £70 to £90 aday that was 15 years ago , now doing the same job is done by Eastern Europeans for £50 aday , just before xmas we done some work in a building site , they were living in the garden shed on the site ,

When I was young I was thick as shit , couldn't even spell my name , not the brightest of sparks now , anyway I found the hard way no work , no food , in my entrie life I never claimed any benifets , and I alway got work , find in life if you want to better yourself , only you can do it , get of one backside and find what your looking for , as it doesn't just turn up on ones lap

It's funny that thousand come from overseas to find work To s better them self , if you live in a old mining town and found work miles away , the council will move you nearer to your job , if your job is 25 miles or more away , so there's no excuses there

Re: Benefits Britain!

What benefits is she getting because I challenge anyone to live on unemployment benefit let alone have holidays !

The idea benefits are too high is laughable if you are actually having to live on them, £72.40 if you are over 25 and £57 if you are under 25. Make that last a week, especially when it can take weeks for first payment to come through and you can be sanctioned at anytime and have it taken away from you for weeks !
