There's actually no difference in economic, philosophical or legal terminology so no, I'm afraid your ill-informed insults don't persuade me.
We're bound by international treaties to permit the free flow of goods and services around the world and many countries have been severely penalised for breaking those rules.
But if you insist on restricting the topic to people's jobs, I'd ask you to consider whether "importing" nurses from South Africa to prop up the NHS (leaving their native health care system to collapse) is okay?
Or that it's now apparently impossible to find a plumber in Poland because so many have moved to the UK in search of higher wages?
What about allowing British subjects to take jobs abroad for foreign companies?
Do you think they should be banned or restricted too?
