Ignoring the Polish argument - this thread was about Northerners being told to move south.

These 'think tank' people are certifiable cretins.

Its pretty neat that we can debate this issue cos it wasnt that long ago that we might feel a bit uncomfortable speaking our minds. But at least new labour now says that your not raving nazi if you are concerned about immigration.
People have always migrated from the north to the south for economic reasons its nothing new, I would rather be served coffee,taken by cabbie,sold a car by someone who speaks english and is emotionally connected to this country than the alternative. If someone comes down here from say manchester at least the wealth stays here and is not sent to prop up someone elses economy. And I must say that using cheap labour from eastern europe is hardly a new idea hitler did it back in the thirties which says reams for new labour (old nazi perhaps).
I wonder who really gains from imported labour from eastern europe anyway,cos if employers are using cheap workers they are not passing the savings onto the customer they are keeping the money as profit, exploiting the poverty of migrant workers who then claim family tax credits and send it back home.
Even frank field labour mp says "we did'nt remove the economic borders so people in hampsted could have a cheap polish gardener."
The hypocrosy of the ruling class in this country is asolutely breathtaking.

The thing is... and I will defo be shot down in flames for this... look at this for an example:
Take an employer, looking for a manual worker. He has a Polish guy there willing to work double the hours per week on less pay, and then you get a guy sent along from the jobcentre who really doesn't want to work but has to go for the interview to keep his jobseekers allowance.
Who would you employ?
I'm not taking sides here at all. From the employers point of view they want staff who are going to carry out a job to 100% satisfaction and as long as the employees work it matters not to them their origin and to be fair you can't blame them.
Oh and I wouldn't swap living in the North for moving down South. I would consider a move abroad though.
Quote by Misskitty_2008
I was born in Yorkshire, and moved to the south when I was 13. I have popped up periodically, and was up there lots three years ago when my brother was terminally ill from cancer.
The difference is astounding.. you smile at people up north, and they smile back. In Oxford and London they look at you like you have a mental illness... a couple of weeks ago when my other half and I went to London, we went on the underground, and a lady was struggling with a pram and kids. We carried the pram down the steps for her, and waited at the bottom. The look on her face told me that she thought we were going to nick her pram. When she said thank you, we said "no problem.. we don't live here so we're friendly"! she giggled then and nodded!
Even though the economy is really bad in the North, I think I would rather live on beans on toast and be happy, than move down south and get ignored. I lost my temper last week when six people in a row walked straight into me.. I wacked the last one with my backpack...
Whereas last time I went up north, I got bumped into a couple of times, and both people asked if I was ok... don't get that down here...
I am not going to get involved with the polish debate as I have had nothing but good workers in my house, and they did charge the going rate for a job well done.

Shades of Norman Tebbit, stop all the economic migrants and there will be plenty of jobs.
Probably get flamed now, but it's my political view.

I don't consider myself as part of any group, SH included. If you looked at any of the welcome threads you won't see my name in them, you'll rarely see them in birthday postings or any of the congratulatory threads.
I post a lot and attend here predominantly because of OCD not because of a desire to belong. When I leave I'll just go, there won't be any goodbyes etc.
