1966 when i first arrived in england
i was surprised at how slack english workers were
i found it a walk in the park.

think you will find that very few europeans claim benifits
when living in the UK.

And likewise there are plenty of Brits in Spain etc, claiming benefits there.

I got loaded there quite often. Always seemed fine until the next morning.

I don't think much has changed - despite the article's suggestion that they're 'living to work'. The "Jobsworths" philosophy is cultural and too ingrained IMO. It's still a class-affected country where innovation and can-do spirit are the exceptions rather than the rule. Always polite, rarely helpful/useful was my impression of most Brits on the day-to-day workplace environment (during many years experience in the UK).

It has its redeeming features, but to suggest that the UK is a powerhouse of industry or quality products is a huge stretch.

And so they should ! they have paid in all their lives to the system , whether they claim in Spain or anywhere else within the EU it,s irrelevant THEY have paid into the system ,, Eastern European,s have,nt ,,,, anyway other than the winter fuel allowance I can,t see any other benefit they would be claiming .

They certainly have not paid in to the system in Spain, and maybe some of them have never paid in to any system.

What on earth are you talking about? There are plenty of Brits on state benefits of other European countries. I was unaware that other countries than UK had a winter fuel allowance though.

How many Brits do you suppose are claimants on the Spanish system who have not paid in to it? So you think it's fine for people from the UK to draw on other countries benefit systems, but you think it not okay that other countries citizens do the same from the UK system.

Speaking of "Farang shrinks" the system in Spain as part of the EU is covered by the European community and "maybe"? "noodless" do us all a favour and transport your talent somewhere else!

Possibly Thai Visa? :rofl:

No, Rodders. I'm correct. A person from another EU country is not entitled to any benefits in the UK unless they have lived and worked in the UK for at least 12 months.

If that is not correct, then please tell me what the case is.

What? So are Bulgaria, Estonia, Latvia, Poland, Slovinia, Romania, Lithuania and Slovakia not part of the EU and 'European community' then?

It's late here (some of us have no need to scurry back to the UK) and I'm tired...answers on a postcard when you've had time to reflect! :)

I think you may want to try reading through the thread again, this time try and comprehend who is saying what. You really are losing the plot (as usual), Rodders.

I`d agree to a point. Initially, when the flood gates opened, I`d say you were quite correct, however now seems to be a different case from what I see out and about.

Maybe where your from they do. I dont know anyone who works longer, harder, and are more adaptable than the folks I know, hence they are all working (albeit for less), dont claim a thing, and never have.

Obviously in spite of your criticisms of true pure English speaking natives, the above QUESTION was far too difficult for you to grasp! :rofl:

p.s. Don't bother to reply until you answer the question in BOLD above that you chose to ignore! :)

What exactly do you see out and about? You see loads of Eastern Europeans claiming benefits do you? How's that then? Do you see them at the job centre when youre signing on yourself? What I see is Eastern European women cleaning toilets English women won't clean etc while the men work long hours in jobs Brits are either unskilled to do/too lazy to do/think it's beneath them to do.

Yeah, same here. The people in my social circles all work hard for a living, but there is more to the UK than my or your immediate social circle. There are millions of unskilled dossers who have never worked a day and are like parasites on the state, as I'm sure you well know. Note the "many" in my quote.

Again, try hiring a British worker to do a "demeaning" job with long hours for shit pay and see how they perform compared to their Eastern european counterpart. Oh yeah, you can't cos unskilled British scum think that it's somehow beneath them to get their hands dirty in a shitty job despite the fact that they're qualified to do fuck all else!

Carry on defending the Great British (non)workforce. If there wasn't so many bum doss cunts laying about there wouldn't be jobs for foreigners to take. It's a free market, tough shit, Britain isn't just for Britons anymore, get used to it.

Hash pipe? More like skunk spliff Granddad, get with the times.
