The recession has much to do with this, people are frustrated and annoyed. A scape goat is to be had somewhere, and unfortunately this is the imigrant population of britain.
You're wrong, many people know that the resession was bound to happen, 100% mortgauges, banks borrowing off banks, it happened in America first which had a world-wide knock on effect. Sorry but do America have the BNP in power?
This issue regarding immigrants has been on the back-burner for years, its only now that someone has actually had the bottle to address it, as with most things that are a 'taboo' to talk about you normally get shot down and branded racist.
Go into a warehouse mate, into a manual labour-intensive work place, and ask them about how they feel. You apply for a job, get knocked back, then they employ someone else who will work for alot less money.
My old man's apprentice got laid off, 2 years he had been there, in his final year. He was doing a very menial job (PDI'ing vehicles, screwing number plates on, checking tyre pressures etc) was laid off so they could employ an agency worker who was from Poland, why? Becuase he would work for half of what the apprentice was on, even though after the apprentice had finished his course, he would have been qualified to move onto another position...
