Where are we – Scarborough, or Warsaw?
If you saw the job advert reproduced above in a newspaper, you could be forgiven for thinking you were in Warsaw, Gdansk or Crakow. However, you would be wrong. That job advert appeared in the Scarborough Evening News, which is the local paper of a North Yorkshire seaside resort.
Why the need for Polish adverts? There are many people in Scarborough who are unable (NOT UNWILLING) to find work, but obviously this particular employer has a desire to employ immigrants, as Polish is the dominant language on the ad, with English in smaller letters at the bottom.
There was a time when the local factories drew their staff from the local workforce, but obviously not any more. This is not a case of migrants doing jobs that British people refuse to do, this is a case of migrants being the target audience for local job recruitment. That has to stop.
