How many times have you heard your Dad or other, older, family member moaning about “foreigners taking our jobs” and waxing lyrical about Enoch “If only they’d listened to him” Powell?
British people love moaning about foreigners. They are to blame for all the things wrong with this country. Without foreigners there would be 100% employment for British people. If we ‘sent them all home’ then there wouldn’t be such a burden on the NHS. They get dole money and houses dished out as soon as they illegally enter the country don’t they? They are responsible for nearly all crime in the UK too apparently!
Truth is that “foreigners” have been here as long as the so-called indigenous Briton. It’s just that British people need scapegoats for their own shortcomings. Can you imagine a day where you don’t interact with someone from another country or background?
Tomorrow why not ask your dad how ‘bloody foreigners’ have ruined his day as he sits at the kitchen table eating his Indian meal while reading the paper that he bought from the Asian corner shop? Then ask him if he’d work on Christmas day too. The foreigners round here do.
