How exactly do you manage to balance all this sanctimonious cr*p and being a Contractor in that tiny skull?

You know my car lease company drivers are all recent immigrants from some of the poorest places in the world. I always ask them if they like it here and if they've experienced any animosity. All of them say the people here are very nice, better than anywhere else they've been.

Immigrants come here because it's a good place to live and by and large the Brits are good people. Get over yourself.

Ah yes an emotive argument not logic - typical.

The current situation is fermenting unpleasantness, business want cheap workers, governments want workers that will vote for them and neither want to fix the problems.

I'm sure the majority of immigrants are nice people, the ones I know are. However the point is 683k of them are appearing a year and no facilities are being built for them.

Indeed we are back with our bowl of M and M's

100 M and M's in a bowl.

2 of them are poisonous and will kill you.

How many are you going to eat?

You got the wrong end of the stick. I'm countering accusations of racism, I don't disagree with any of your points.

Every contractor knows why rates have stagnated or why London boroughs are turning Labour, even if they deny it.
