Next Christmas jobs offered to Polish workers before being advertised in UK
If this is true it is so wrong.
With so many British people are unemployed and looking for work.

Presumably the British people don't want the jobs.
Next is probably looking for eager willing hard working people and know from experience that Polish workers fit the bill.
Hard to tell when they are not being offered.
Well it might be nice, seeing as British taxpayers are probably subsiding a large part of their workforce. Anyway, at least their employment policy is now out in the open and the public can choose whether or not they wish to trade with a company that pursues such a policy.
If you read the story it says the jobs are advirtised in poland FIRST Eastern Europeans were being shipped over to fill the minimum wage posts weeks before they are even advertised here in Britain.
Its so damn wrong.
Perhaps they had difficulty filling the posts in years gone by and are just skipping ahead to where they know they will actually get the workers.
because free market economics.
Apart from moaning, what exactly are we going to do about it ?
This really doesn't surprise me if I'm being honest. That Warehouse has a reputation for taking on nothing but Eastern Europeans. It's become a bit of a joke in the local area
The recruitment session happen on the 6th. The jobs were advertised in the UK on the 19th less than two weeks later.
So even if they rounded people up from the recruitment session straight onto buses they wouldn't be able to arrive "weeks" before.
A company having an expectation that recruiting someone from abroad you might need to give them a touch more notice than the guy round the corner doesn't seem so strange to me
Still they took our jobs
How can a uk worker apply for a job that is not advertised till 13 days later in the uk, so they are offering polish workers the jobs first. And sorting out accomdation for them
Without Polish pilots the NHS would have collapsed during WW II.
Oh look...
That didn't take long.
I already boycott them as their products are bad quality.
I must be clairvoyant
I have actually always found their clothes to be of good quality, unlike shops like Topman and River Island.

There was NO NHS during WW2, and its a stereotype to say they are better educated and work harder when in reality most poles are lazy irritating racists, and if you say otherwise then you are deluded.
As for Next it's cheap tat made in a foreign sweatshop under conditions that were outlawed here in the UK in the 19th century, as for Boycotting Next that I cannot do as I have never stepped foot in their manky tatty overpriced shitty stores and don't ever intend to.
Gonna need evidence of this assertion. I am not saying they don't have issues with racism and laziness but so do we.
Are they better educated, or are they just more self-disciplined? You don't need an education to work in a shop.
