The ThunderDragon: Working Immigrants And Lazy-Arse Britons

30 October 2007

Working Immigrants And Lazy-Arse Britons

More than half of new jobs created in the last decade have gone to immigrants. I have no problem with the immigrants coming in and working. They are coming here and doing the jobs which are available, helping our economy expand.

But I do have a problem with the millions of Britons who just sit on the dole, rather than taking these jobs for themselves. Get off your lazy arses and work! I can't see how it is not possible for any of these people to get any sort of job at all. They may have no skills, but there are always supermarkets or construction sites that need workers! It may not be nice work, but every job has to be done by someone, from cleaning the toilet, to sweeping the road, building houses, all the way up to running the country!

Every job has to be done, and I can't see how low-skilled immigrants can come and get a job so easily and yet so many "indigenous" people are unable to. It doesn't make any sense. Get off your arse and get a job. It may not be a great job or for great pay, but why should us who do work pay for those who literally just can't be bothered?

If you actually have real medical problems, fine. If you are actually unable to get a job - and actually continue to try to get a job - any job - then fine. But you're just lazy, tough. No more dole money for you.
