Many of the poles here are just like the phills i have met at work grateful they get paid a decent wage with generally decent working condtions (laws and enviroment)
so andypaul, the polish workers you know get paid the same rates as your english workers? i know the polish guy i work with doesn't, he's on the lowest wage where i work. i'm sure some do get paid the same rate, but there are a number who are exploited by employers and i wonder what benefits english workers get from the polish gov .. if you don't think there is a problem with europeans coming to the uk, take a visit to Slough, where 200 people were stopped in 1 hour, and asked where they were from, and 140 were not british, and if its not a problem why have they put a cap on the number of people who can come from bulgaria and romania into the uk?

anyway my moan, is that if a european can come freely to the uk and bring their family , then why do people born in britian have to play the expensive visa game, if europeans can do it, then it should be your legal right to bring your non european wife and family here.

moan over
