BRITISH JOBS FOR FOREIGN WORKERS

CLICK HERE for the full transcript of Gordon Brown's British Jobs for British workers speech. made on the 24th September 2007

It of course came to nothing and he back tracked on all what he said.

Below is a list of jobs which have gone from the UK to other countries. I am creating the list and adding as more job losses are announced, each job lost should be another reason why you should never vote Liebour again, and if you think the CONS are any better, they are all for the European union, having decided to go back on the cast iron guarantee of a referendum.


Each item can be clicked on and gives you the background to the story, and I will be adding the total jobs lost under this government. feel free to add a comment to any stories I might have missed.

900 jobs go to Hungary

1,700 jobs go because foreign firms pulls out of a contract after having had cheap product for years and firms profit given to indian TATA which moved the work to other countries.

100 highly skilled engineers lost in Kinross, yet government spend millions on foreign built chinooks which are useless and not fit for purpose.

300 jobs lost at Orange, and more expected as french owned Orange and German owned T mobile combine, both have large call cantres in India and expect to move abroad.

This report says no job losses...then 6 months later a total of 400 workers are made redudent because the foreign owned company couldn't hold the UK to ransom and get cheap electric, so took production elsewhere.

1,300 jobs lost at honda over the past year, but non lost in the eastern european plants.

350 jobs losses at Lloyds as we the tax payers pay for their mistakes they get rid of UK based call centre staff to save money, how about closing the Indian call centres so you can get to speak with people who understand you.

700 jobs go from glsgow to the czech republic

and how a whole brand was moved to Holland, HP SAUCE with the loss of 200 jobs

450 Agency workers, dismissed most of them at 5 and 6 in the monring, if you do find a job in the UK it is normally agency as you have less rights. As with the other stories also BMW cut jobs in the UK but not eastern europe

Closure of Woolworths with the loss of 27,000 jobs, due to the increased imports of foreign goods A once great British institution killed off by the global mass market likes of walmart. (american owned)

MFI with a loss of a 1,000 jobs, as per usual a British firm which used to produce a lot of its own goods from British factories was bought out by various foreign firms, with the goods then bought in from asia, in the end the owners bailed out leaving the firm to collapse.

And lets not forget when these jobs are lost it is just not these people it effects but the communities thoes people live in, we should start saying if you want our money you should make the products here.

  1. The BBC have reported the other day that Gordon Brown has stated Labour would create "more middle class jobs than ever before".

    Presumably these middle class jobs will be going to middle class foreign nationals yet to arrive in Britain?

    A Freedom of Information request has revealed companies (particularly in IT) have been approved to bring in 98,573 people to work in the UK in 2010 (with a further 25,740 pending approval) and many will be for jobs normally conducted by UK staff.

    So much for "British Jobs for British Workers". Clearly creating "more middle class jobs than ever before" deliberately forget to mention that Labour wasn't actually aiming this at the middle classes born here.

    I really hope the BNP make use of this in the Parliamentary seats (which are being contested) where such industries exists.
