Thread Name: BS: lets develop Scotland
Subject: RE: BS: lets develop Scotland
Most of the migrants working in this area are single men, here because they can earn three or four times what they can in Eastern Europe....they live in communal dwellings and send almost all their money back to their families.
The guys I spoke to say they have saved enough in 8 years to build a house in Poland.
A married man in Scotland could not live, never mind build a house on the wage rates quoted.
The truth is, we have a whole generation of young people who have been ignored by governments who are using immigration as a tool to bolster a failing economy.
Alex Salmond says he will increase immigration, but that will not work, a start must be made on training our young people, even if the rest of society are forced to take a hit in the process.

If we force our youth to rot on minimal benefits and do not provide a viable future for them, we are simply storing up trouble for the future.
However, if the problem is left in the hands of Westminster governments, there is no hope of future change, just more of the medicine we have been swallowing for decades.

Independence first, then we can make the politicians dance to our tune.
