Big Wates contract to upgrade social housing in our area at the moment. Every worker on the job is Eastern European apart from the bosses. I was talking to a Romanian plasterer the other day and he was pleased with all the work he was getting. All price work and he's got 8 units to do himself this week.
Lives with his friends who are all on the job in a place in Dagenham. His wife and daughter are staying in Romania and he goes back a couple of times a year.
This is the problem with this country cheap labour undercutting our own building workers.
Now think about it and you might understand why this Government just stand back and do nothing. They just don't care because the shareholders/owners of Wates are earning max profit on contracts like this by avoiding employing British workers.
