Yet another piece of UKIP brilliance

Irish.

I think its warning us against Irish beggars.

No blacks, No Irish, No dogs.

Whatever you think about the Poster, there is no doubt that Eastern Europeans have stuffed the English Working Classes when it comes to taking jobs in certain areas. 20 years ago when I went to Boston in Lincolnshire to visit my wife's relatives there wasn't one Eastern European working the fields. Now there are thousands. Who has benefited from this? The Eastern Europeans who are prepared to work for minimum wage ? The bosses of the companies that run these massive agricultural companies? Consumers of vegetables all over the UK who have seen the prices kept low? Certainly not those who have historically lived and worked in the area.

But none of that matters or even needs to be discussed because a bloke appearing on a Poster is an Actor.....

Eastern Europeans stuffed the British working class?

And there was me thinking it was successive selfish governments eroding the manufacturing base and dismantling the unions. But it was those pesky workers from eastern Europe trying to get work all along.

Not far away from Conservative's old election tagline "If You Want A ****** For a Neighbour, Vote Labour". Ukip, a party of wankers, for wankers.

Beautifully put.

This, utterly irresponsible.

All you anti-immigration, right wing, Tory lovers can thank your beloved Thatcher for the erosion of worker's rights. If she hadn't busted up the unions you working class lot wouldn't be in this mess now.

Sorry but are you blaming capitalism and globalization or eastern Europeans?

Sigh....

I said 'in certain areas' - Lincolnshire is historically a low wage agricultural area which had neither a manufacturing base nor unions to be dismantled. When a labour force comes along that will work for even less it is no great surprise what is going to happen, but it doesn't help those that can no longer find work.

Given that there is minimum wage legislation, how can the Poles and Lithuanians work for less than the locals?

Certainly not the latter, they have only done what would be expected but that doesn't really help those who now cannot get work locally.

If a foreigner can arrive in this country, know nothing of the language, culture, laws and traditions and next day, take your job?

This country would be bankrupt as we already had to go cap in hand to the IMF when Labour let the unions run riot in the 70's

Bloody foreigners, stealing hard working British comedians' jokes.


(Yes, I know he's actually Irish, but that ruins my joke!)

I work all over the EU, does that mean I'm stealing the jobs of Poles, Germans, Cypriots and the French?

Nope, but the ignorance is total bliss at times regarding the EU

Unbelievable

I know. Yet achingly true. Doesn't it boggle the mind!
