I am making the point that foreign workers who have gone through the correct red tape channels, often feel cheated by the ones who are slipping through the back door...(or should I say port)
My currect GF is a "bl**dy foreigner" (my little joke with her), and her feelings along with many of her foreign freinds are the same on this subject. They are annoyed because they had to complete conversion training in their own country for their profession before they were allowed in this country, so hard as it may seem to some her and her friends agree with stopping foreigners coming in here under different terms.
I was at a house party on Friday night, with the majority of attendees being foreign. (another barbecue with rice) I admit that I did feel uncomfortable when the guys were talking about this very subject, but they rightly do not consider themselves to be scrounging foreigners because they are here at the countries request and needs. One of them is a priest back in his home country and you can imagine what our discussion was like.
