I think I'd rather stay in France, better weather, better food. The U.K is becoming a massive sponge for spongers in a few years you won't recognise our country. rakxe

but who will end up being the biggest spongers. really doubt it will be immegrants. the sweat shop owners will be rubbing their dirty hands in glee over all these extra workers they are able to recruit.

rather be short of them than allowing any old sod driving em and seeking experiance on the road. that includes a fast track learning scheme for anyone who fancies getting their HGV licence where more or less everyone passes like some bus companies did when they had severe driving shortages. know a few i,d never travel with.

The government paid the French £54 million to get them to stop/reduce crossings.
What a waste of tax payers money!

I suspect the French are taking le piss. They do have their way of doing things that suit themselves and doesn’t appear to involve too much effort or exertion no matter how much cash you give em.

Perhaps they should earn more as they are more useful to society than lawyers or architects. Let's face it what did Sir Christopher Wren or Smith and Graham do for us?
