    As long as the government doesn't artificially prejudice it I see no issue.
    Asset stripping damages host economy, while enriching a few crooks. And in Poland it was done on industrial scale for decades.

    Of course you do not see any real issue, you are an UKiP voter. Look, Eastern European cleaning lady! Get her!
    If UKIP are the answer, then it must have been a very stupid question.

      So we owe it to Poland not to endorse UKIP? We British should not give UKIP the time of day because we somehow owe Polish workers an entitlement to work here? Because of events that happened after what the last war? the last 50 wars? is that what you are saying? Or are you just simply playing the victim card hoping that we will feel sorry for you and throw UKIP out?
      Let us not forget EU open doors immigration benefits IT contractors more than anyone

        Go ahead and ban UK FDI to the country and see how well it does, 'asset stripping' or otherwise. They're not really your assets at all but those of their owners. If they choose to dispose of them to UK firms, why on earth should you intervene in the matter? As an FYI I'm not pro UKIP so much as for limited govt and scaling back the EU and leaving it if it refuses to reform. I just don't trust the three main parties at all on this front or any other. I'm well aware of UKIP's flaws as a political machine and would be opposed to blanket bans on immigration - work permits will do fine in the presence of a generous welfare state.

          mos is a UKIP agent, who is trying to turn us against Poles by making us forget about the overwhelming majority of Poles in the UK who are charming intelligent folk.

            You've all got it on for foreigners!

            I think that the Polish and Indian outsourced IT workers should stick together and both march into the UKIP meeting as they are both equally racially discriminated.

                Indians are discriminated against? Polish University graduates clean streets, while Indians go straight to Banks/IT consultancies, no questions asked. The truth is that Indians are the most entitled.

                If you want real horror stories, talk to Polish au-pairs who survived working for Indian families ....

                  The number of eastern European migrants who came to Britain in the last decade was hundreds of thousands higher than previously thought, the Office for National Statistics has admitted.

                  In a disclosure that will fuel intense national concern about immigration, the agency said it had failed to count an estimated 350,000 migrants who arrived in this country between 2001 and 2011.
                  Deliberate or incompetence?

                  The ONS said the mistake occurred because it used “inadequate sampling”
                  Deliberate or sasguru involvement?


                  Anyway... sounds like we need a cull - something like the glorious 12th to trim the numbers
                  How fortunate for governments that the people they administer don't think

                    Not surprising at all. If they estimate illegal immigration @ 600K! And Chinese immigration at 100K! Laughable!
                    Immigration controls in Britain are exceedingly weak, and now they are chasing off the best immigrants this country ever had!

                    And you, brave UKiP fighters, missed one quote:

                    Sir Andrew Green, chairman of MigrationWatch UK, which campaigns for stricter migration rules, said: "This is final confirmation that net foreign migration under Labour totals nearly four million, two thirds from outside the European Union.
                    Migration Watch is staffed with Commonwealthers, btw., so its a rare admission on their part!
