Now that would be some turnaround!
In recent years - our kindly benefit and welfare systems have been the major attractions.
Completely unavailable around the Souks of Marrakech.
I really don't think that immigrants come over here to live on benefits. You try living on £75/week job seekers allowance.
They come over because the minimum wage is higher than many countries and there are (or were more jobs available).
I don't necessarily agree with freedom of movement. It pushes down wages for the lowest paid and saturates the market for middle earners. Also one of the main reasons for the high death rate in the uk from covid-19 is the high population density.
I know farmers who will only take foreign labour because it's cheaper to do so. They know they are taking away entry level jobs from the British.
There lots of immigrants near where my partner lives. They get the benefits but they also get big houses and free TV licences. She should to work for the police force, she was going in to the houses.
The benefits should only be for disabled and carers. If you're 6 month's unemployed then refer them to food stamps. |

I think, Robbie, you'll find places like Seoul (10million) and Athens (700,000) have quite dense populations. |

Where you would need 'eyes on sticks' to stop being robbed or assaulted.
Morocco has long been on the Foreign Office lists.
Currently reading 'terrorists are very likely to carry out attacks in Morocco'....

If people have been furloughed or lost their jobs, then you can't afford a Rolls Royce, unless DWP have a money tree.
Recession is looming over King. You better find a new tax haven whilst you still can. |
