How likely do you think is:
Fully caused by the reasons you give, rather than crap management from the local voted in government?
How do you think shutting the doors will fix it if said government is equally neocon?
Why is it currently impossible to reward people fully fork work?As I agree with what you said, for example there aren't enough nurses cos there aren't enough places and it's nicer for the necons to strip the NHS. It's also not fair on other countries to "steal" people they educated and not give a crap.
At the same time, taxes have not gone up for years and the cash has to come from somewhere. You see in areas with better provision taxes are also higher. Netherlands unfortunately also turning neocon has higher taxes, better healthcare and roads. Germany, same. Sweden, same.
Leaving the EU to fix this seems a bit drastic and not the only solution if that makes sense?

I agree leaving a EU is not ideal but at the moment with the government not investing in youth of today I wonder about the future. The tory/eu solution seems to be allow the free movement and we can get ready made staff at a more efficient rate when ever we want. And those that not happy with us are free to leave. How about making this a great place to work for all people born here and those that are not. Leaving it all to free market means that selfish short termism will be king Adam Smith sang the virtues of free market but it needs to be regulated to protects us from our greed and fear. Lets not just put a pounds sign on everything. Quality of life is not related to the amount of money in you pocket, once a few basic needs are met then studies have shown happiness is not corellated to wealth.

There has been a time when British trained staff where the most desirable in the world from brick layers to doctors and engineers. They served a will trained apprenticeship or study programme. This has been destroyed in part by importing trained eastern European tradesmen and not rewarding our professional adequately the aussies for a start have plundered the NHS for doctors during this debacle and replaced them with doctors from abroad that have favourable currency conversion. All in all the end user and staff have all suffered in the pursuit to make things more profitable and less of a drain. It all started with Maggie and daves finishing off the job. If we became domestic economy I feel people's living standard would improve everything can't be measured by gdp figures. It's not racists. It's not a divorce neither. It's creating a country where there a real future and not another generation of fuck wits that think there beyond working because that's what immigrants do.
