i think they just apply to eu citizens, not sure what those from outside can claim.

The greatest barrier to employment in the low pay sector is the use, by bigger employers, of angencies. Because the work offered has seasonal variations they are able to provide workers on a daily basis. Those who would love to leave the benefit system are caught in a trap, do they give up benefits and risk no work from one week to the next? The EU workers are seldom tied to fixed abodes/ families, and therefore more flexible and able to travel around the country following the work.

Brian, of-course higher wages equals higher prices, but that is how economy should function.
If you get a higher wage, you won't mind paying a higher price.
But people on no wage at all will find anything expensive, even if it were a £100,000 house reduced on sale to £1000.
They still would not be able to purchase it having no savings at all.

If we follow Brian's philosophy all the way through, we might as well all become unemployed and live off JSA.
What Labour (for it is a Labour policy what Brian has mentioned) does not tell people, is that each person working in Britain at silly wages from other countries can claim child benefit for every child and unemployment benefit and housing benefit.
They pay hardly any taxes on their peanut wages.
And millions of Brits are forced into unemployment and live off benefits as a result.
The Labour policy of throwing Brits into unemployment so as to employ foreign workers for less money is one reason we are in the mess we are in now.

alex,so the picture is becoming clearer to you then,cheap labour brings bigger profits to big companys.no one that I know would want to pay double on the stuff that they purchase,you would have to be a mug to do so.
benefits system needs looking at,but only as a last resort.
so lets look at the alternative then.
we chuck out all the cheap labour and people who are willing to work 12 hours a day 7 days a week,and replace them with an all british workforce with no a no benefit back up.how would this country survive.
