It's like the public debt, Keith: Labour just kept building it up till it became impossible to service.
So too with Labour's mass immigration.

Keith
as with so many journalistic pieces it is difficult to separate the truth from the desired message. It would be helpful to be able to put those quotations into context but I cannot find any attribution to source so we are left with what the journalist/editor wants us to read. I know that many schools, hospitals, social services departments and many private organisations have actively recruited from abroad. Do the agencies that provide this service count as 'search parties'?
It would also seem to be a policy that is being continued by the present government:

there was an emotive piece in the mail that didn't actually focus on facts, just jumped on a one liner from lord mantelpiece.
couldn't really draw any conclusions from it.

Mark, there are work agencies operating in the UK who contact only employers and recruit and offer only Eastern Europeans.
In theory it is illegal, to the best of my knowledge. Would come under discrimination.
Apparently it's OK, though.
Don't ask me under which hypocritical EU law it's alright, but with the UK authorities it certainly seems an acceptable practice.
There was me thinking that work agencies who offer work in Britain must contact and recruit British people too, on equal and fair terms, and not just people from certain EU countries but not from Britain.
There must be a loophole that allows discrimination against British people in Britain for work agencies offering workers to employers in Britain.
Or perhaps there isn't and they just go ahead and do it because "the Government" allows it.

Alex, the various anti-discrimination laws are not there to protect the British, the English, white people, able-bodied people, the young, law-abiding people, heterosexuals or Christians. They are there to punish the majority for discriminating and empower the various minorities. To be strictly non-discriminatory I suppose every job ought to be advertised in 27 countries and 23 languages.

no laws are actually broken if an employer advertises for people who speak polish for example.

There are work agencies who advertise in Britain only for employers and offer only Polish workers living in the UK or in Poland, and who can be in the UK within 24 hours.
And there are employers in Britain who contact only work agencies offering Eastern Europeans and accept workers from these only.

alex,there is a reason that farmers employ eastern Europeans,the reason is they would have to pay English workers higher rates of pay which will be passed on to the hard pressed consumer.so in short it comes down to higher wages = higher prices in the shops.

The UK taxpayers are subsidising cheap employment from the EU
Paying non uk citizens Tax credits housing benefits and family allowances
Then we pay benefits to British workers that have been displaced .

Wrong Brian as usual
The bed-sits of Margate Dover and Folkestone are full of them,
Have you seen caravans in the yards of the big factory employers of Dover
Or mass caravans in Tilmanstone ?
I think not.
