Furious Ed Miliband has said he will ban firms like Next from advertising jobs abroad before they are offered to British workers

How on earth will he do that? This , for instance, can be reached from anywhere in the world. As can this one in Germany. Or this one in Poland. Miliband jumped on the scaremongering bandwagon and paid the price. You can no more ban advertising jobs abroad than you can stop politicians lying. More obfuscation and nonsense from the popular press.

And of course the present administration wants to draw attention to immigration. It is the easiest way to put people off the real issues of financial and administrative mismanagement that have brought the economy to it's knees.
