Subject: RE: BS: To Br/Exit Or Not To Br/Exit
Labour is "cheap" because BRITISH employers pay immigrants low wages. Immigrant workers do not demand low wages. No-one in work ever demanded to be paid as little as possible. They get what they are given by BRITISH employers. They have no choice. As very few immigrants claim benefits, there can be no complaint against them. Paying wages as low as possible to people who have no choice has a name. We call it capitalism.

The facts about Corbyn's train ride have yet to be cast in stone, Stu. If he did lie, which is in doubt, the lie pales beside the lies told to us by the brexiteers. We cannot "control our borders" whilst being in the single market. We will not get a points system, which we were promised. We will not get hundreds of millions of rescued EU money pumped into the NHS, as we were promised. Going back just a little, tuition fees WERE trebled, weren't they, Nick Clegg? Immigration was NOT reduced to the "tens of thousands", in spite of the fact that over half of the immigration that Theresa May "failed to control" had absolutely NOTHING to do with the EU. Going back even further, Saddam did NOT have WMDs that could be activated within 45 minutes. And yer man DID have sex with "that woman" and he did inhale. If you really want to conclude that Jezza was really lying, then put that alleged lie into the context of real political lies. And don't forget the lies that the imbecilic David Davies was telling the Commons today.
