what's the 7 letter word beginning with R? I can only think of a 6 letter one.

Why don't you take carp like this to the politics forum?

Simple equation.

Allow as many skilled and qualified Professionals OUT of the Country as the overwhelming majority are not going to vote for the working-mans party.

Allow as many grateful immigrants in, and particularly, if they have no skills or qualifications they are going to be Working-Class and will vote Labour, accordingly.

Simples.

^ Spot on.

You just need to balance the people who'll vote for you against those who'll be paying.

Get the first figure higher and bish bash bosh. Country ruined for a generation.

if they have no skills or qualifications they are going to be NON-Working-Class, and probably won't bother voting.

The problem with the theory is that the work shy are too lazy to vote, and the foreigners don't care they'll go home when the money runs out.
Report Tevez is God • January 13, 2010 8:58 PM GMT
the problem with that theory is that it clearly doesn't work - the tories are 2/5 to win the next election

why would labour pursue such an obviously flawed strategy?

It's utter rubbish that no-one would seriously consider, but it remains a favourite sweaty fantasy of the that odd breed; the impoverished Tory underclass.

Their tragedy is not so much their constant betrayal by the people whose spittle they lick from the boots that grind them down, but that they are now so cut adrift that there is no way back. Yet, from beyond the pale, you still hear the cry ...

beyond the pale? Perhaps not the most appropriate term, given its origins.

Can't understand for one moment why the indigenous working-class wouldn't continue to Vote Labour!

I mean its not as if there Hospitals/Schools and services have been over-run in already impoverished areas is it?

Or that there working rates ( to exist in The UK) have been seriously undercut by foreigners coming over who can afford to get much less.Naturally Employers love paying as little as people so welcome these guys with open arms.
The traditional working-class workforce can not compete as they need the original wages to pay UK mortgages etc..

Or that the Culture of their areas has been changed beyond belief as most "newcomers" have little or no interest in the Working-Class activities be it going darn the boozer or going to the gee-gees and dogs.,,

I mean Labour haven't done any of this have they?

BY THE WAY: What part of th 1997 Labour Manifesto informed us that over the next x years that they were, literally, going to change the face of The UK?

You should, jj, spend more time on the politics forum. You'd be more at home there.
