    Hahaha and what ... is there something wrong with it ? They do the job that your hands don't want to !

    And to who you are saying this thinks like : but this is the UK not eastern europe ?

    Is this their fault ?

    Better consult your goverment on this issue OK.

    But blind as you are you probably don't know how UK went around the world huh ?

    most of them work on the black market and also milk the system and get free handouts from the government, do you think that's fair?

    Man I could not care less if it is fair or not :D

    Like I said consult your government or get your hands dirty and do the job they are doing and you "UK" people don't want to ;) If you get your hands dirty there is one immigrant less for you to worry about hehe.

    why should we do "dirty jobs" like you said, as a well educated person i do not need to do that i can find myself a job without getting my hands dirty. Even if British people who cannot fond a job start accepting low aid jobs it doesn't mean that polish/slovaks and the rest will stop coming over here.

    The problem is, they can't afford to compete with the wages.
    You can't expect a citizen of an industrialized nation to compete with the wages paid to third world workers. It simply can't be done.

    The world is changing, whether you like it or not.
    I'm an american now, but I realize there are people starving in the world and that's why I give to charity and support immigraton(legal or illegal) who are willing to work for a better life.
    You wouldn't talk like that if you would have lived in another country half your life.

    Raising the minimum wage could be the solution to this. If a local person can earn say $ 50,000 an year as a construction worker, he wouldn't mind getting his hands dirty.

    The island I live on is filled with eastern europeans

    not sure if there was some cordinated effort to get them here or what

    Most of the jobs here is low paying service industry, and rents and real estate are high as a major city

    I must assume that there willingness to work for a low wage and live with a ton of roomates is part of the reason they are here.

    I think its cool they are here, but they probably contribute to depressing the wages

    I don't know how many are here illegally

    The world is getting 'smaller' and people are more mobile. One day, we will find every country has all sorts of people living in it happily.
