    Have you noticed what governments all over Europe have done to Adult Education in the last couple of decades???!

    Indeed, the genuine, strategically well thought, policy on immigration for all involved would be to bring people over, educate them and integrate them.

    The thing is, the immigration policies we have are mainly to bring over people to exploit them to the max without investing in them at all - they’re about growing the local underclass to lower the employment costs of food delivery apps, restauration, garbage collection and similar, not about shared prosperity for both the locals and those that were invited in and should have been treated as guests rather than thrown (along with their children: see the baundeliers in France) into a life of poverty because they’re starting far below the locals in the opportunities ladder due to their lower formal education level and difficulties with local language.

    Meanwhile you have muppets on the make-believe-Leftwing-Rightwing political theatre both approaching the whole subject of immigration in a highly reductionist way as some kind of Identity War, all the while the people with most of the money rub their hands in glee whilst they cash in on the misery of locals and guests alike.

      Yes I know and it’s about to repeat. And yes it’s driven by the political puppets of the industry.

      You can tell because it’s the same liberal centre parties who used to flirt with the right wing to gain votes, who are now suddenly calling for guest workers, without any support from their own voters. They don’t care what happens to these people in the future. They just want to flood the employment market with cheap labour because their friends wants that.

      More immigration is inevitable, but it shouldn’t be like this.
