Maybe those on tax credits should go back into full-time employment in UK shipbuilding, mining, that kind of thing ?https://twitter.com/JuliaHB1/status/658410119085076480 …
@iamrichardmh who knows? But if hundreds of thousands of immigrants can manage to find work, most Brits could give it a go too...

@JuliaHB1 Many could. But how many immigrants recipients of tax credits ? Employment in well-paid jobs at the bottom diminishing last 50 yrs -
@JuliaHB1 For instance, locally Ford Transit factory gone to Turkey courtesy of EU finance. -
@iamrichardmh so people have to find new careers or move to where the jobs are. Life isn't always going to be how you want it to be. -
@JuliaHB1 Rhetoric. Suggestions where a person of modest abilities might move to ? China ? Who'll staff shops, do menial jobs if they do ? -
@JuliaHB1 I think we agree there are some who could pull their finger out but I don't see how there's enough employment to equal TC £'s 1/2 -
@iamrichardmh and the fact that 9/10 new jobs created during the Labour boom years went to immigrants doesn't suggest we have a problem? -
@JuliaHB1 Yes. The EU has facilitated the mass movement of very cheap labour. The pic attd might help !pic.twitter.com/3zZUhr1HsD
