You say that like it's a threat, that he would care.

For a failure of an immigrant he has a high opinion of himself.
How unlike the other Poles I know.

Time to follow majority of CUKers and block you.

It's not going to stop other Cukkers realising what a winker you are.

But then the media do conspire to give the higher jobs to them, rather than the Poles who rightly deserve them, eh?

you are blocked. Bye!

Hi does have a point. British Asian unemployed refuse to work as a Curry chefs because this type of work carries low prestige in Asian community. He would not mind to work as an assistant accountant, even though in all probability the later offer lower rates.

The real issue here is that many types of jobs which are in fact skilled or at least semi skilled are nowadays treated as unskilled, and the hiring choices reflect this attitude. I am sick and tired of paying good money for crap service, just because proprietor hires workers with no skills, no experience and no aptitude, just to increase his margin.

Put bluntly as long as unskilled workers refuse to do the unskilled jobs for than less than benefits (or aspire higher to skilled jobs) migrants will always be needed to provide cheap labour

Yes - by lower cost area I was referring to somewhere far enough away to avoid the property price inflation caused by being in a city's commuter belt.

Which also avoids being able to get or keep a job there. See the catch 22 yet?

[doodab]

Which is quite a lot of money to many people

Yes but in the context i'm talking about less than 10 percent, and being in the most expensive place to rent gave lower overall cost than living in most of the commuter towns.

Truly strange.

I know kids of my friends, who are doing courses.
You can claim some form of benefit, but only if you do less than 20 hours a week (I think) of courses.
If you want to spend more time studying, you lose benefits.

So, you are penalised for trying to better yourself with training and education.
Strange system indeed.

This. Again, we have failing education policy and that's a bigger problem than failing immigration policy.

It is a really strange system where in some circumstances it pays more to be out of work than in it, there are people who are genuinely trapped and then there are thoses who are just bone idle
