Forever, my opinion is based on what friends in the construction industry tell me, who do I believe? the BBC or friends I have known for years? ;)

I suggest members read the middle pages of The News of the World, and it was staggering to read it, and it was an Asian guy who runs the operation.

Where illegal immagrants line up for work outisde British companies for work, companies include B&Q, who are paying below average wages for the staff.

This government has to stopped this, before it starts a lot of aggro, with British workers, who wants work.

Arthur the government doesn't care simple as that m8 i have phoned the number to report breaches of NMW so many times and not a thing has been done. They have had the benefit out of introducing the NMW i don't think they are interested in enforcing it at the minute or anytime soon as the recession hits.

But Arthur - that would mean buying a copy of NotW; I couldn't live with the shame, and my neighbours and fellow church-goers might see me, and my reputation would never recover. ;)

How about a link instead, and let me keep what little pride I have left?

Just searched, and found this - is that the article, Arthur?

If so, you may want to be a bit more discreet, as the only mention of B&Q is that they queue up in the car park, not that B&Q hire them.

Hi Tailz, I have just read your comment, and although, we are all entitled to free speech, and your comments are noted, I would like to say something.

In this great country of ours, we are quite willing to work next to our neighbours from abroad, BUT, it has to be fair, and also the wages have to be fair, we know that employers will go lower and lower, than the average wage, and they will get away with it. But the Health and safety is very strict in this country, and the min wage is there to protect the worker.

BUT also there are companies out there, who will go for foriegn workers, as they will take lower paid wages, and companies will then go 'underground' to get the staff, (as in NOTW), The British workers are the best in the world -and l will always support those workers, who are after better deal. It is like in todays other paper a new power station being built, is employing 650 foriegn worker, and there is already troulbe in the area of the Isle of Grain:)
