British youth do not want to work. They're lazy, arrogant, can barely read or write at a basic level. They turn up late, and want to go home early. They miss weekends because they got drunk the night before. They're argumentative and cannot follow simple instructions. They demand the Earth and are prepared to give the bare minimum in return.

Nah, weapon of choice in the UK is a knife, you get less time in prison for it. Plus you cant exactly control it, traceability and all that.

Hope this is true...i'm sick of all the foreigners taking over our damm country. I'm not talking about Indian folk and folk of African heritage, because of course Britain claimed territory in a number of countries many year's ago.
I'm talking about the Polish, Ukrainian and Kurdish people who have their own dedicated streets across the nation, and in particular a major street in my home city of Hull. We give them homes to live in, they take all our jobs, all our money and then send it back home to their families and I think I speak for the majority of England when I say "WE WANT YOU OUT!"
Seal the borders permanently, round up the current foreigners and ship them back to their own home lands!
You forget that Great Britain has had 2000 years of invasion,immigration and the infusion of foreign ideas have created the Britain we know today. We are a Mongrel nation and thats what makes us so great.
I work with Polish people and they are great people. I think you do not speak for the majority just yourself and others like the BNP.
Stop reading the Daily Fail....

I wholeheartedly agree. But it is not the responsibility of an employer to educate a person to be able to read and write, or to convince them to get their ass out of bed, or to teach them how to hold a door open for another person instead of sucking air through their teeth and muttering "whatever innit".
I was expecting some of the responses my post gathered, but that's simply because it's a truth that people don't want to accept.
There are millions of people in the UK who actually believe that people are coming here and "stealing" our jobs. The truth is that just as Indian doctors come here because we aren't capable of training people to become doctors, we have become even worse where we can't even educate our children to be respectful or professional!
If a Polish person walked into my office in a suit and tie, was polite and had a neat CV, and then a 19 year old British guy came in in jeans and a T-shirt, texting on his phone, wanting every weekend off, who am I likely to hire?
I fully understand that not all young British people are the same. I do have relatives and friends in that age group who work damn hard, and I managed quite a few young British staff who worked hard too, I respect them for it. But FROM MY OWN EXPERIENCE, most young British people walking into that company were lazy, arrogant and unprofessional. That's the truth, don't shoot the messenger!
* Euro/dollar hits lowest levels since January
* Short-term Italian debt sale supports; bigger test Thursday
* Euro hits 10-year low vs yen in thin trade
* U.S. Treasury report criticizes Japanese intervention
NEW YORK (Frankfurt: A0DKRK - news) , Dec 28 (Reuters) - The euro neared a one-year low against the dollar and hit a 10-year trough against the yen on Wednesday after data showed euro zone banks were still hoarding cash, spurring fears of a growing liquidity crunch the day before an important Italian bond sale.
Year-end conditions kept volumes light, but traders said investors in the market were spooked by European Central Bank data showing euro zone banks deposited a record 452 billion euros ($585.18 billion) with the central bank.
Signs that banks were hoarding cash came just days after the ECB provided banks almost half a trillion euros worth of three-year loans at cut-rate prices to encourage lending and ease strains caused by the euro zone's two-year-old sovereign debt crisis.
