    A step in the right direction but is this xenonphobic policy worth the paper that its written on.

    Ok I think there was a thread related to this topic somewhere else but I think its a case of too little too late, here is the tread anyways

    http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/7605455.stm and it doesn't reduce existing outside of EU staff only those coming in and I think the criteria seems a bit wooly for selecting them or rejecting them.

    what do u think ?

            It seems to say no more foreign IT workers.

            Which has got to be good for rates.

                They come on a working "holiday" visa, flout the rules and no one cares and no action is ever taken.

                What makes you think this new plan will be enforced in any way?

                Labour want as many unskilled, uneducated people in the country as possible. They make the best Labour voters.
