Thread Name: Osborne wrong: UK immigration needed
Subject: RE: Osborne wrong: UK immigration needed
Bonzo: I can't quite see what point you are making in your reply to me. You list the countries your surgical 'team' came from'; but I can't see you have in the least demonstrated any "need" [the word in your previous post that I was querying] for them to have come from there. If we "need" them to look after you and your wife, then I ask again, why is not such "need" being met from our own resources? I am frankly more impressed by the arguments about immigrants being willing to undertake menial jobs which our own youth seem to regard as "beneath them", than by your plea of "need" of incomers to keep you & you wife healthy; which, if it is the case, seems to me to demand better medical training from our own medical schools, and better inducements for their graduates to stay here to provide care for such as the Bonzo family, rather than a somewhat pathetic "need" to have to import such.
