As far as I am aware British people choosing to live in other countries & receive the benefit of their services don't have to speak the native language. Unless you call talking slowly in a loud, patronising English voice speaking the lingo. As a matter of interest Roger, how many of these foreigners coming here to claim our very generous benefits & wonderful health service do you actually know?

Yes they can do

Would I have to personally know any to be able to comment.I work in a beautiful part of Bradford which has plenty of people I was on about.Also a trip to the A&E at the B.R.I. would also confirm what I was on about,a lot of "patients" bring their translators with them

You know they came here just to get benefits? That's very perceptive of you. The people at BRI with translators, you also know they are all claiming benefits?

Only the ones who work for the Bulls. It's a simple extrapolation of the fact that Bulls employees are sacked every 10-12 weeks.

I get the impression you are looking for an arguement with somebody

Really can't be bothered,you win

In a truly remarkable act of prescience, I prophesise that a newly-robust Pumpers will shortly appear, telling the relevant protagonists to stay on topic or bugger off to the Sin Bin or somewhere with even nicer people on...

I merely stated about Mark Mexico having to speak good English to come and work here,and stated you don't have to speak English to come and get benefits,don't think I'm in the minority there.Tigertot came in with an unprovoked attack towards me because of that.Im the victim,also as you can see on my previous post I have walked away from an arguement

Questioning someone's off-topic bigoted views is not an attack. You need to get some perspective.

Didn't Hull KR put out a statement recently saying that their two PNG signings may not end up coming, due to similar visa problems? Something about them having to wait ages for their visas, meaning they'll miss all of pre-season?

Would stand to reason that Mexico is having the same issue. A shame if we can't take him on though, as it would solve the current issue of the lack of prop cover, and they can justify it by saying he is Winterstein's replacement (since the club did say anyone leaving would be replaced).


Edit: Never mind that first statement, I've just read the article. Really should read these things before I comment.

You've started a race war - helter skelter- on your head be it.

And I'm Nigel Farage

Seriously, put Evans and Mexico into that squad and that's a very handy front 6.

Yes back on topic,I agree.Definately not bottom 2 material if there are no more financial dramas

Im sure the link with the university could help with this, im sure i read somewhere its how sheffield manage to get people like Menzie Yere over here by going through Sheffild Hallam, bringing them on student visas but are able to be employed
