The EU is at it again!
We've already seen the chaos resulting from the EU admitting a dozen or so 'east' European entities through purely political reasons ... ignoring the fact that they could not even match the financial status regulations that the UK itself at one time struggled to meet for entry ... ignoring the fact that all were negative contributors from the start and are now soaking up EU funds ... ignoring the fact that free passage of labour is already causing chaos within 'western' European members. Now, they're jumping the gun in an even worse fashion. Albania and Bosnia 'intend' to become members in around 10 years time (Bosnia has virtually no credible government or even currency, for xxxxxxx sake). Yet they're about to be awarded 'free labour transit' in advance anyway! They won't even have to slip into Slovenia in order to gain entry. Lunacy!!! |

Has there been downward pressure on wages from these Eastern European workers? Or are they mostly doing low-skilled jobs that the indigenous mostly eschew? |
