Stop discriminating against the Brits

Sir-- I write this letter to appeal to local business to change their mind and put an end to the discrimination shown towards British workers, or should I say ex-British workers, who find themselves on benefits because their faces no longer fit.

Because short-term profit driven companies has chosen to exploit cheap eastern European labour which is rapidly replacing the British workforce, the detrimental effect this is having on our communities is clear and needs addressing.

When you put locals on the dole they no longer consume, they quickly become apart of the civil mass.

Within a short period of time you can't even afford to get to work, you lose your self esteem then you're hope and are drawn into a life of povety and in many cases crime.

It's  down to business to stop exploiting Eastern Europeans send them back home and start employing the locals again.

The free market has failed us and it will fail your company too.
