Let Everyone In

worldwrite
Curry may be the national dish but the government are stopping the chefs who make the best from coming to the UK. The draconian points based system is now turning thousands away and making many ineligible to stay. The UK Borders Police are using their increasing powers to raid and round up more people – including chefs, their families and ‘ethnic’ diners in restaurants. On the streets of East London, the public and restaurant managers are disgusted and WORLDwrite demands we let everyone in.

    • It would be wrong to cut back on the people coming to Britain. Britain would not be Britain without them. Who would say Britain is not cosmopolitian?

    • “Hey, you. What are you good for? Well, of course that’s the most important question. We are a striving nation. We want to profit from people. We don’t let people in we cannot benefit from. So... how about your background? Do you have a master’s degree? What, you have work experience? You know how to do your job. Well, that’s good. But you see, we don’t really care about skill. We care about qualifications. After all, we want clever people. And people with money. Say, do you have 800 pounds in a bank account already? No? Well, go save it up, and come back then. Oh, that’s impossible in your situation? But you can contribute, really, because you make the best food? You have the dream and the will to do well? To get a new life? Great! We appreciate your enthusiasm. It’s just that... and.... besides... “
      That’s the kind of attitude the government has. That’s what’s ruining the restaurants’ businesses, the chefs’ chosen lives, and our delicious dinners. Is that any good? I don’t think so.
