You shouldnt get a fuking thing here if you don't speak the language.
Proper piss take that is.
When I used to forklift I went to work a recycling center in Wandsworth for an agency and out of 40odd people not one spoke English, not one.
My first day when the supervisor was giving everyone thier instructions for the day it was given in Polish.
I had to go up after and say I don't speak Polish so what am I doing?
I left a few days later because the guy I was working with had to use Google trsnslate to communicate and I thigh wtf is this joke.
Can't lie I was disgusted
so someone who starts work inside 24 hours of legally arriving in the country seems someone who should be entitled to be treated the same as all other workers .
oh and at the time it would have been illegal not to let him claim appropriate benefits .
Yeah, but I asked what you would do because, by the standards of this thread - which admittedly is not that high - you are one of the few adults who post here; so I was half hoping for an adult response.
For what it's worth, I think the current government is trying to address the issue, at the same time as trying to fix a broken economy and ruined public services. None of which can be done quickly or easily.
Ok so let's run this past you mate, I get there are some jobs that are customer facing, that you certainly need to know how to speak English, or at least a basic understanding of the language. But there are also jobs where that might immediately not need to be the case. So let's say for example a painter and decorator, his mrs does all the bookings, because she either speaks the lnaguage or is a British national. She deals with all the customers and states her husband is Polish, he can't speak very good English at the moment but he's a very good, reliable and hardworker, also pays all his HMRC taxes. I genuinely don't see the problem in that scenario. The customer will have the phone number of the Mrs and the painter can get by during the day with the polite short courtesy, and he don't need to speak English to accept a lovely cuppa with a few biscuits. Piece of piss mate.
What bit didn't you like mate, was it the giving them tea and biscuits.
It's ok mate, you don't need to reply to that, I already know the answer.

I haven't got an actual solution, that's up to the current government. They did nothing for the best part of year, despite it being in their manifesto to deal with it, and the problem has escalated out of their control because of their own inaction.
This 'deal' with France doesn't address those already here. That also need sorting. They are a huge strain on the country.
All those here illegally, and it is clearly most of those over on dinghies etc., should be immediately deported back to where they came from.
And we can all wave them goodbye, as sympathy is now at zero.
It should have been dealt with, completely appreciate they had a lot to sort but then, equally, they said they would. Time to get on with it.
