Alf Garnet is alive and well…

What a load of nonsense Alf Garnet was a totally fictional character a loud mouth ignorant moron that lost all and every argument, the black care worker actor won hands down every time as it was intended by the script writer.

Alf played by Warren Mitchell born in Stoke Newington knew all about racism and fascists as his parents were Russian Jews that had fled Russia  

As for Enoch Powell a very intelligent man who joined the Army as fast as he could to fight the fascists later went up the Ranks and served in Military Intelligence, when he became a Politician and made that speech in Birmingham which the gutter press later called in the " River of Blood speech "  simply quoted  Virgil's Aeneid.


As I look ahead, I am filled with foreboding; like the Roman, I seem to see 'the River Tiber foaming with much blood'.


He was against mass immigration because he thought there would be racial tension and violence in the future , he was proved right we read about every day in the media, some who are not very bright think wrongly that only white people that can be racists, totally wrong I lost count the number of times I was racially abused in my working life, 

            

Immigration should be controlled, and aimed at attracting people the UK needs. Other countries have such schemes. And there seems nothing wrong in publicising the requirements of other countries in order to encourage people here to consider moving out. Apparently, the current difficulties here are causing some doctors and nurses to apply for positions overseas.

Do many foreign students avail themselves of Mickey Mouse courses in order to get to the UK? If so that should be stopped, but selling places at accredited universities and the like should help keep costs do for UK students and help promote the UK overseas.

But it seems strange to think it’s OK to restrict available care for vulnerable elderly people in a quest for higher pay…

Yes , let’s import cheap Labour from abroad to look after vulnerable old people . What could go wrong ?

Yup. Lefties love the idea of bringing in cheap foreign Labour by the boatload and dumping them on the vulnerable and poor .
Alls fair in the pursuit of the marxist wet dream.

Yeah, I also yawned whilst reading the retro bait.

No other country in Europe has an open labour market scheme for foreigners (ie non-EU nationals) like the UK. Those countries which do operate such a scheme use the EU ‘Blue Card’ for skilled workers they are trying to bring in from outside the EU. But the numbers are tiny compared to the UK, less than 30,000 across the whole of the EU compared to 270,000 in the UK (2022). In addition, the conditions for issue are far more stringent, with minimum salaries in the € 55000 range, compared to £ 26200 in the UK.


It’s hardly surprising given the extremely high proportion of foreign doctors and nurses in the NHS that some locally-qualified medical staff perceive their career options in the UK are limited. Especially in places like London where a third of doctors and a quarter of nurses are foreign-born.



There’s certainly evidence that some mediocre universities offer such courses in great number to attract foreign students to boost their revenues. But more disturbing is the dramatic over-representation of foreign students at so-called elite universities, especially those in the ‘Russell Group’. In such cases there is no available study which confirms that foreign fee income goes to subsidise ‘home students’ rather than support other ‘projects’. The net result is that many tens of thousands of British students are denied the opportunity to attend such institutions. At the end of the day, the question that needs to addressed is: What is the function of the higher education sector? Is it to provide a quality education for foreigners, many of whom are nationals of countries that are commerical rivals or even potential adversaries? Or is it to train Britain’s future leadership and cognitive elite?



Given that over 90% of care home places for the elderly are privately owned it’s not so much a matter of a quest for higher pay, but one for higher profits.
