Subject: RE: BS: Polish Workforce in Britain
"What are you proposing is done?"

Umm, Communism?

Or at least the introduction of some political system where a) the welfare and interests of the working-classes are not completely politically unrepresented b) when the working-classes are not also simultaneously scapegoated as feckless benefit scroungers.

So long as the Capitalist principles of greed and profit continue to run the show, I can't imagine that ever happening because economic migration is good for business. Ian Duncan Smith's pious pleading to employers to employ British workers, is empty grandstanding intended to do nothing to improve the employment prospects of the jobless, he's just trying to shift the heat away from the government.

Nothing will be done, the working classes will continue to be squeezed from every direction until we return to a vast class gulf between owners and serfs. Well, maybe a revolution might help..
