You posted that a decision should not be made on feelings as that is discriminatory in your opinion. A job candidate , may, on paper fit the bill so is invited to interview Your ''feeling'' at interview is that they may well be suitably qualified but you ''feel'' that they would not gel with your current workforce so offer the job to someone else who you ''feel'' is a better fit for your team. Now you are trying to dodge your previous post by claiming that someone (suitably qualified on paper with required experience and could be any colour/race/religion) is not being discriminated against if the interviewer 'feels' will not fit in with the team. So 'feelings'' are allowed How can you get a feeling for someone from their name alone? Throughout I have referred to interviewees , an interviewer's 'feelings' about an interviewee not fitting in with the workforce irrespective of looking suitable for the job on paper According to your posts such 'feelings' are discriminatory and should not be permitted |

One of the jobs that HCAs do when they work in the wards is to clear up , piss, shit , puke , blood and wipe bottoms . The resident lefties were quite keen for NHS workers to have a substantial wage rise yet seem to be reluctant for care workers to recurve the same . They would rather import cheap foreign labour from abroad. I wonder why ? I'm all for giving care workers a pay rise, the question is who is going to pay for it? something i found out yesterday but i could not find a good place to post it James Cleverly just raised the minimum salary to hire a foreign worker. But not for carers and health sector workers. And if they are on the shortage list they can now be imported for barely more than the NMW |

Yes nonsense always confuses me. In the meantime. Annual immigration is used to increase GDP and raise short term taxes. It is repeated every year because it only works short term. Its a ponzi scheme. |

Well that makes sense at least. Nobody is admitting it, but the riots in Dublin has shook them up. Agreed. The feeling of hopelessness is driving extreme views and now actions. For me this is the "Pitchforks are coming" that Nick Hanauer warned of. www.politico.com/magazine/story/2014/06/the-pitchforks-are-coming-for-us-plutocrats-108014/I see pitchforks.
At the same time that people like you and me are thriving beyond the dreams of any plutocrats in history, the rest of the country—the 99.99 percent—is lagging far behind. The divide between the haves and have-nots is getting worse really, really fast. In 1980, the top 1 percent controlled about 8 percent of U.S. national income. The bottom 50 percent shared about 18 percent. Today the top 1 percent share about 20 percent; the bottom 50 percent, just 12 percent.
But the problem isn’t that we have inequality. Some inequality is intrinsic to any high-functioning capitalist economy. The problem is that inequality is at historically high levels and getting worse every day. Our country is rapidly becoming less a capitalist society and more a feudal society. Unless our policies change dramatically, the middle class will disappear, and we will be back to late 18th-century France. Before the revolution.
And so I have a message for my fellow filthy rich, for all of us who live in our gated bubble worlds: Wake up, people. It won’t last.
Immigration has been used to wind folks up, but they can only be wound up if they a already struggling. Don't get me wrong Immigration is an issue, but for me it is a spoke in a wheel of fortune. Whether its to cause a housing shortage and drive land prices up, or to keep wages low, or to provide short term tax receipts. But the wheel of fortune has many spokes and they all centre on making a few rich beyond obscene. The wealth gap is growing every year and the only way that can happen is if many get poorer while a few get richer. The sad thing is that the reaction of the rich is to try and protect themselves by hoarding their money and the result of that is nearly always that they lose it all in the end after many people have died. Civilisation as we know it is not some leftie utopia, it is the result of this happening a 1,000 times across the planets history |

Ah sucks, I thought you'd finally got it. as I said - you are (very) confused.. His arguments ran out and all he has now is sarcasm. It's hard to avoid a conclusion that he knows perfectly well what people want and why they want it. |

By insisting this policy be left alone and we instead switch over to some kind of official control way of dealing with this symptom, you are pretty well confirming suspicions about your own political motives. |

Both of my kids partners holding overseas passports live here on visas in their own right and as far as I know they are not currently planning to marry anyway. So no direct personal interest, but it does bring home I suppose just how callous the government is being here forcing our young kids in slightly different circumstances who happen to have fallen in love with a foreign passport holder to make a decision between abandoning the love of their life or being forced to leave their own country. If they were my kids I would be justifiably furious. Just wanted to note dappy that your daughters' foreign paramours might not be completely out of the woods even if they elect to live over the brush. The minimum salary threshold for a skilled worker visa will also be rising to the same level (£38,700; exemptions for certain occupations eg care workers)
I can almost hear the steam coming out of your ears. but do calm down, it's bad for the blood pressure to get so aereated.

Why do we need a foreign santa?
We've got lots and lots of born and bred santas of our own thanks, who mainly do it for NOTHING.
