We also had ‘British Jobs For British Workers’ a proposition so ghastly, and one which I had hoped had been resigned to the dustbin of British politics or at least the fringe parties but appears to be taking centre stage. For a government to encourage foreign workers into our job market only to parrot the ‘takin’ our jobs’ mentality of the grumbling working class and the Daily Mail/Paul Dacre thought bubble is shocking. Yet still the seals in the conference hall whacked their flippers together in unifying appreciation of it’s bigoted vote winning brilliance.
Well said! I think it's telling, if downright bizarre, that Labour are now to the right of the Tories on this issue. It illustrates how ideologically confused politics has become, as our elected representatives scramble for headlines as opposed to ideals.
