      Bloody hell, you've said something I agree with. You might want to have a lie down.

        Thanks a lot.

        And about the Martians - you ought to look for Martians amongst the existing population too. They are everywhere... observing... multiplying... preparing...

            The number of Romanian and Bulgarian migrant workers in Britain reached a record high

            Number of Romanian and Bulgarian migrant workers reaches record high - Telegraph

            The number of Romanian and Bulgarian migrant workers in Britain reached a record high at the end of 2013, official figures have disclosed.

            There were 144,000 workers living in Britain who were born in the two eastern European countries according to figures for the final quarter of 2013.

            It represented a 42 per cent increase on the 102,000 who were here in the same period the previous year, and a 62 per cent rise on the final quarter of 2011.

            The jump at the end of last year came even before nationals from the two former Communist states gained full access to Britain’s job market on January 1.
            On track for the 50,000 a year as forecast by MigrationWatch.

            Where's that Roumanian ambassador now?

              And that's without open borders. You have to wonder what the government are playing at don't you...
              While you're waiting, read the free novel we sent you. It's a Spanish story about a guy named 'Manual.'

                Well, he is still in England, but contrary to what you may think he is not taking up a job that could have otherwise been filled by a local ...

                    But this bit is intriguing;

                    I wonder if the 'full access' is actually makng any difference.

                      last year they came in via a 'self employed' visa this year there is no restriction so maybe they won't bother now there is much less paperwork? Maybe they thrive on the challenge?

                      we will see in 3 months.

                      it seems terrible the Telegraph should publish such a terribly biased report showing actual figures of immigrants. its getting as bad as the Daily fail.
