    Migrants take all new jobs in Britain

    http://www.express.co.uk/posts/view/...obs-in-Britain

    "Foreign workers have taken every new job in Britain for the past four years, astonishing figures show.


    The total of migrant employees since 2003 has soared by 740,000, while the number of Britons in work has gone into reverse and dropped by 120,000. This means that foreign workers filled all the extra 620,000 jobs which were created during those four years."

    Not my words, the words of the Daily Express newspaper.

    I suppose it makes a change for them not to be banging on about Diana, the McCanns, or house prices.

      Fear not, Maddie still gets on the front page of their website. Stolen by North African immigrants. Who also killed Diana, probably.

        I thought it was one particular Greek immigrant who killed Diana?

            True


            Pizza worker was unfairly sacked
            A pizza shop supervisor who was sacked and replaced by cheaper migrant workers has won a claim for unfair dismissal against his former boss.

            Kevin Lewis, 26, from Tranmere in Wirral, worked at Domino's on London Road in Liverpool.

            Mr Lewis was sacked when he refused a transfer to a branch in Chester because he could not afford the travel costs.

            He was replaced by Polish immigrants who were paid the minimum wage and had accommodation deducted by their boss.
            How fortunate for governments that the people they administer don't think

                Interesting how the arguement shifted from immigrants taking public money in form of benefits to taking jobs from working people.

                    Without altering the facts stated above you could also write it as:

                    The total of number of Britons in work has gone into reverse and dropped by 120,000.
                    This means that migrant employees soared by 740,000 which filled all the extra 620,000 jobs created during those four years.
                    and I even have some words left over:
