The “sham” of British jobs for British workers

Source: Balanced Migration

Evidence of the government’s failure to help British workers compete in the global marketplace mounts as nearly three quarters of a million foreign nationals joined the British jobs market last year. Figures unearthed by the Daily Mail reveal that of the 733,000 National Insurance Numbers (NINOs), a pre-requisite for employment, were given out in 2008. 

As the Recession deepens British workers are increasingly losing out in the battle for jobs. According to the OECD, seven out of ten jobs created under New Labour were taken by foreign workers, the highest proportion in any major economy. More recently, the total number of UK unemployed rose 250,000 in the three months to June 2009 to 2.5m, the highest level for more than a decade (nearly 1.6m are job-seekers while the remainder are deemed to be ‘economically inactive’).

Clearly some British workers are failing to compete effectively with workers from overseas.

Policy experts squabble over the causes. The Taxpayers’ Alliance blames the government’s easy welfare system. Others blame a open-door immigration regime, skills shortage, inflated expectations amongst British workers, hard-nosed employers driving down wages and downright laziness.

Whatever the reasons, there is clearly a failure of government policy that is leaving some British workers feeling they’re on the scrap heap and it is little wonder that many feel let down by a political elite that’s proved unable to help British workers compete in the global market-place. 

The consequences of this failure are another generation of under-skilled British workers living a life-time of unfulfilled potential, higher instances of social problems, criminality and substance-abuse, and under-achievement . The resentment caused by this frustration and failure creates a breeding ground for racists and extremists.
