      Leroy - You truly are the poster boy for the whole forlorn Remoan lobby: you have no opinion or perspective whatsoever, you offer no cogent argument which could possibly prompt anyone to broaden the parameters of their own perspective, yet you attach yourself to the cause with the intellectual conviction of a blancmange succumbing to gravity and splattering the kitchen floor.
      Of course I got the joke, you feeble minded cretin. The whole premise is constructed in such a simplistic way that even amorphous blobs of unwitting pudding like you can understand it. As clearly stated in the tacit subtext of my previous comment, anyone who has evolved beyond primitive marine invertebrate will find the humour embarrassingly vacuous and hackneyed. Clearly you are untroubled by such concepts and are sat there in soiled underwear due to an intemperate fit of hilarity. You are easily pleased and you have no control over your bowel reflexes. All in all, that's nothing to be proud of.

      dan taylor - Yes, going by some of the comments (and a fairly substantial thumb-down ratio for the propaganda video) it clearly has been watched by some Brexiters. It's just more of the same hackneyed prejudices aimed at working class Brits with the intention of coercing their political priorities via appeal to their vanity. As such, it will only strengthen the resolve of Brexiters but it might have a formative effect on the nascent opinion of anxious political pseuds.

      Leroy brexit is a cry of people who want to govern their own country and control borders preventing illegal and controlling legal immigration. Also to not be part of a European state/empire because people miles away can't really empathise or take real accountability for a distant country they make the rules for. We feel distant and cut off from our own political class, how can we embrace a state of political elite that doesn't really have British interests?

    Agree with most of it but if agriculture needs cheap workers and / or Brits won't do it then permit agricultural labourers to come over to work with permits. You need not grant them citizenship. With regulation that should ensure they are not exploited so it is better for them, they just don't get to stay.
    Nurses - just allocate more places to train them and raise pay. Same with doctors, many places at university are taken by foreign students. Increase the places for domestic students.
    No point whining now as we are leaving unless there is a referendum on staying in EEA. If people are having second thoughts that would give people a middle option. Meanwhile the government could tighten up freedom of movement, Germany has stricter rules than us, just not eliminate it.

    It doesn't mean any of those things. It just means the UK gets to decide rather than be beholden to the whims of Brussels or Berlin. Full stop. It may well be that the UK decides to get MORE nurses, only this time based on qualification criteria rather than nationality - so we end up with a mix of Canadian, Indians New Zealander, and Malaysian nurses as well as Poles. Perhaps the UK may or may not need seasonal workers. If so they'll get contracts and their passport stamped for 3 months or whatever. That's it.

      S Bam - How about we look what the NHS staff really consists of? They come from India, Philippines, Pakistan, Ireland, Poland, Nigeria, Zimbabwe, Portugal, Pakistan, Spain and Germany. About 6% of the stuff come from other countries and 5% from other EU countries. EU migrants are slightly more likely than the population overall to be NHS staff generally. They are disproportionately likely to be doctors - but not to be nurses. The proportion of foreign nationals increases for professionally qualified clinical staff (14%) and even more so for doctors (26%), prompting the British Medical Association (BMA) to observe that without the contribution of non-British staff, "many NHS services would struggle to provide effective care to their patients".

      By the way Belgiums controls its immigration. After 3 month Belgium throws out EU citizens who can not support themselves 100% or are supported 100%. One can wonder why did the government never do it? Why has the 5th biggest economy not the will the capacity or the will to do what little Belgium does?

So if you are qualified and not having to move 1500 miles and not having to leave all your family and friends and not having to learn new languages, also to add you have references a bank account etc, wouldn't that put you at a greater advantage to all the Eastern Europeans? So I can summit up, it's called laziness!

    This sort of dogma is the reason I voted to leave. Trendy lefties, entrepreneurs, and now a borrow boy who knows it all by shouting you down and bombarding us with cliches. Who picked the blooming apples before the Poles came here? Where did our nurses come from before the government started to import them? This is the sort of bloke one avoids when going into a pub and seeing him at the bar. He will shout you down and point his finger at you. It is what these people do. They have been doing it for decades.
    Anyone who works for seven pounds an hour has to claim benefits from the state. (That top-up benefit comes out of taxpayer's contributions) There are millions of immigrants that must do this and many millions in benefits are claimed from the state to supplement this.
    The landowners who employ cheap migrant labourers don't contribute to the top up (HAPPY DAYS - as a barrow boy might say.) The everyday Joe does out of his or her taxes. The low wage means migrant tax contribution is at a minimum. Many classrooms have three sometimes four interpreters where I live in the Fenland. These interpreters cost money that the average taxpayer supplies (Not the landowner who employs cheap labour - HAPPY DAYS.) Some of these interpreters are earning £40 an hour. All this is paid for by the average Joe from tax contributions.
    When the average Joe needs to get on the social housing queue; he can't because his job and tax contribution put him at the back of the line (A fifteen-year line.) If you are needier you jump to the front and get special treatment. (New Houses in the Fenland filled with migrants) You must not say anything! If you do, you're a racist. And the barrow boy will shout you down with his economical truths. He does this by omitting the parts I would like to focus on.
    Oh, yes he also omits doctor's appointments taking two weeks. When you sit in a dentist and get charged £50 for a checkup and a whole family of migrants go in and get free NHS benefit because their wages are too low they can't pay the bill. Never mind. The landowner who employs cheap labour does not pay it (HAPPY DAYS) The average joe does out of his or her taxes while waiting fifteen years in a social housing queue and watching all the poor needy migrants getting plum position for such accommodation. You must not complain or vote against it. If you do you will be turned into a racist and have your brain amputated.
    We have no control over how many migrants can come here because the rules are made by people who live somewhere outside of our electoral control. Now we have found a way to sack such unelected people and gain control, we get Remoaners of all shapes and sizes telling us what twats we are for voting to leave.
    Just keep voting people. If you register and vote, these big mouthed Remoaners have no answer except the dogma they spout at you. Develop a thick skin and vote. Sod all the trendy lefties, the entrepreneurs and the odd silly little big mouthed barrow boy.

    • @TorianTammas
      @TorianTammas 6 років тому +3

      escole48 You surely know that the British government tried to stop an increase in workers rights the others states wanted. One example are working hours: Introduced in the UK in 1998, the EU’s working time regulations mean employees cannot be forced to work more than an average of 48 hours a week. Workers can choose to opt out, and there are some exceptions - including emergency service workers, soliders, servants in private households and fishermen - but this EU law helps stop bosses forcing their employees to work unhealthy hours. It also prevents young people being exploited by stating workers under the age of 18 cannot work more than eight hours a day or 40 hours a week. The UK government resisted the controversial working time laws during EU negotiations and a future government could amend them.

    • @escole48
      @escole48 6 років тому +3

      TorianTammas: Where I live in the Fenland, the immigrant workers who voice such things concerning employment law are no longer required the next day. Only the ones who don't complain get to go back each day. The British workers who enjoy such rights are no longer employed. Then the British workers who were there before the migrants came are gradually allowed to move via natural wastage. Also, because much of the industry is seasonal, Brits are no longer employed via the employment agencies anymore. There are rules. But there are also loopholes. The law is also not put into practice. Surely you know this? People have been calling out about this for years. Ian Duncan Smith and Ed Milliband brought up the matter on question panels. It does not make any difference. It is the law that is not practised or even legally evaded. It is all well and good saying such laws exist, but landowners know how to play the system and do. There is a factory in Chatteris (Fenland). This is one of the many factories throughout Fenland. The immigrant workers are brought in by coach from Peterborough provided by a job agency. The migrant has to pay for the shuttle service. They work from 6am to 5pm. Then they are told that the coach will not be there until 9pm. Anyone complains, fine. They must do the overtime or they can walk back to Peterborough across the Fens. And they will not be asked back via the job agency the next day. They get blacklisted for quoting the law and no shuttle service home. No law has been broken. They can go home if they want. There is no train station in Chatteris by the way. It is an isolated hamlet. On other occasions, they'll get shuttled in and after an hour or two, they are told. "Go home. There is no more work today." The coach comes and they are taken home with the loss of pay.
      This type of practice is going on all over the Fens and up and down much of the country where this type of agricultural industry is. The Brits will not do the work because they can see how the law is being undermined. They are then called lazy and told the country will go to pieces when the migrant goes home or does not do the work anymore.
      Reporters like Mark Steel stand upon this pile of discontent and crow at the population - ranting half-baked economic truths that his newspaper wants you to know but omits the bad practices that his newspaper does not want to report. These newspapers want to own the debate before it starts. The man is a ranter who shouts people down. That does not make him right. The laws that you mention with good intentions don't apply. These employers know the loopholes and use them to their benefit.
