    Can you imagine that here. This is one reason I think we are better off out. We just get so hung up on the letter of the law whereas the French etal take a much more practial grown up approach.

    I would suspect we have a lot more lawyers and a more generous legal system to keep the in Mercedes.

    Employment rates for Europeans in the UK by national origin:

    -Romania & Bulgaria (94 per cent),
    -the A8 countries (81 per cent) and
    -EU15 countries (76 per cent)
    -UK-born workers (76 per cent).

    If the employment rate for non UK born working age adults isnt 100% in a skilled job, then frankly they shouldnt be here.
