      Good point, UKIP are way off the mark here.



      people who don't know how to use a toilet can't be blamed for putting pressure on the sewage system.

        The truth is Polish Engineers come and work as Engineers, Polish doctors work as doctors, and polish shelf stackers work as shelf stackers. The fact that high percentage have a University education means nothing less than a lot of them are working in professional jobs or setting up their own companies.
        Not many Polish engineers come here

          Got any figures to back that up?
          Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.

            I cannot be bothered. May I suggest that you look up skills mobility in the EU and I think you will find that "high end" skills mobility is very low.

              Typical rightie answer, can't be bothered and would rather someone else does the work for them

                  I know many Polish people who are working for big banks, universities, hedge funds and other reputable jobs,” Mr Szwed says. “But people just talk about Polish people being builders.”

                  Mr Szwed’s company, Best Foods, now supplies most of Britain’s major supermarkets, including Iceland, Morrisons and Asda with meat and vegetables for ready meals.
                  Personally I meet a lot of Eastern Europeans who work in banks, consultancies and media companies, one or two of them have PhD's. We've just recruited a Software Engineer from Bulgaria, great guy. Half of the team are now in Romania, but they actually work there. They're the "offshored resources" and then in the Irish office there are a few Eastern European Engineers.

                  So in my company alone at least 25% of the Engineering team is from Eastern Europe, which contradicts the idea that there are hardly any Engineers from Eastern Europe.

                  Funnily enough I haven't met any Eastern Europeans working at the tills in Starbucks or MacDonalds.

                    I have.

                    I've met them working everywhere in highly skilled roles to cafes.

                    Then again if you have a degree in an arts subject regardless of what country you are from you are going to find it difficult to get a decent job.

                      That's true arts graduates working in Starbucks or MacDonalds.
