    Johnny Foreigner nicking the UK nuke industry jobs

    Oh, spiffy. More security clearance jobs given to Johnny Foreigner.

    The government is relaxing immigration rules for the nuclear power industry.

    Can't go letting us filthy contractors getting a foot in the door now, can we?

    Just WTF is this government all about?

    They have a lack of qualified people. Anyone with qualifications wants to leave the country.

    If feel sorry for those who come over here to work - they will find they live amongst chavs.

        ooops

        I think it is a disgrace that 50% of people these days are still poor i.e. of below average income. something must be done.

          Ahem.

          Only below the median average. For the mean average, it is not 50%.

            Didn't NL use almost those exact words in its manifesto? i.e. definition of poverty was anyone in the 25th percentile of earnings and they wanted to remove them from poverty?

                    The cranium is (I'll keep this simple for you) the head bone. Not the brain.
