Taxpayer-Funded OECD Demands Preferential Treatment for Immigrants
The taxpayer-funded Organization for Economic Development (OECD) has demanded that the government do more to “protect migrants during the economic recession” by employing more in the public sector, and by implementing lower taxes and subsidies to low skilled jobs which migrants most often fill.
The OECD, which receives funding of £25 million a year from British taxpayers, has also demanded increased rights for migrants living here because of the recession.
The OECD said that in tougher economic times migrants tended to fare less well, noting that they were often employed in less stable, more cyclical sectors such as construction.
“The economic downturn makes it all the more urgent to take care of immigrants … because experience shows that they are the most vulnerable in times of economic crisis,” Martine Durand, from the OECD, told a news conference.
She said the number of would-be migrants was unlikely to go down because the situation in their home countries would also be very tough, and added:
A lower level of education, the tax system and poor recognition of qualifications all hampered migrants’ access to labour markets, according to the study, based on data from France, the Netherlands, Portugal and Belgium.
“In all four countries and for both genders, the unemployment rate of immigrants is significantly higher than that of the native-born,” said the OECD, adding that this was the case in most of its 30 member countries.
In 2007, the unemployment rate among foreign-born men totalled 15.8 percent in Belgium compared with 5.5 percent for native-born men. For France the figures were 11.9 percent against 7.2 percent and in the Netherlands the numbers were 7.5 percent and 2.7 percent.
Unemployment among foreign-born women was even higher, while children of migrants were also disproportionately likely to be out of work despite having gone through the local education system, the study showed.
*The OECD was formed in 1961 as an expansion of the Organization for European Economic Co-operation (OEEC). The OECD now includes as member states Canada, Mexico, Australia, New Zealand, Japan, Korea, and the United States.

If they have migrated here for the work, then when the work dries up they should migrate back. Simple is it not? I don’t need £25 million to see the common sense of it - or are these people just idiots, with the common sense of a boiled egg?
In a sentence. Everything is out of control in this lunatic asylum.
It needs something like a Cultural revolution to correct things. It may be messy but it has to be done, for sanity to reign again.
The more I watch events unfold, the more I understand the French Revolution.
No wonder the pigs in the trough recently made Treason a non hanging offence.
It is all too easy for some people (not all) to ‘fritter’ money, that was never theirs to do so - and that, is what I see here.
To site an example: My neighbours ex-wife (who never worked in her life - nor had children) was a dab hand at frittering money away. She would spend £60 on the weekly shop, where as Jim - a capable car mechanic could manage (without quality complaints from his wife) to do the same weekly shop for just £35.
Go figure.
So much for the vital role of these valuable workers without which the economy could hardly function.
I’m sure that there are many who visit this site who know people, born-and-bred in this country, who are desperately looking for work in these trying times. To read that there are those urging that immigrants should receive special treatment in the job market when so many of our own people are suffering due to unemployment is offensive in the extreme and must surely result in much- justified resentment and anger.
I seem to recall Norman Tebbit telling us many years ago that we should ‘get on our bikes’ to find work. What’s good for the goose is good for the gander. I wish good luck to the migrants in finding work, but not here. ‘On yer bike!.
No jobs? Go home then. They only came here for money in the first place and if there isn’t any around then there’s no point staying. They’d rather have stayed in their own countries had the economic situation been better anyway and we don’t want them here in the hundreds of thousands. I dose’nt take £25million of taxpayer money to reach that simple conclusion.
I’m amazed. Economic downturn affects everyone aside from the super-rich, yet we are funding this body to tell us that it is, in fact, the exclusive preserve of the migrant., who now requires British jobs to be ear-marked for his (and probably a goodly number of her) benefit.
I demand that more is done to protect the natural population of Great Britain. The natural population of this country should come first and foremost in everything. This can easily be achieved by reversing the damage done post world war two. Simply put, return all immigrants/migrants from whence they came.
The natural population of this country has already suffered enough. Low pay, reduced opportunities, lack of or unaffordable housing, reduced local services, poor education, reduced health care, robbery, rape and murder. Then to add insult to injury these invaders are falsely promoted over our own.
The damage done to our society and to our economy is becoming ever more painfully obvious with each passing day.
My country, my rules.
Of course, OECD among other things acts as a vote topping-up mechanism for any New World Order (NWO) subscribed government that has disaffected their own indigenous people whom they can no longer rely for support at the ballot box.
What an undemocratic/displaceable organisation they are.
I vote the OECD disbands itself and hands over our £25 million to finance unemployed immigrants.
What happened to British jobs for British workers? Oh, I see, they get a British passport handed to them along with their benefits package on arrival so, if they should ever feel the need to get up off their backsides and do a day’s, they can walk straight in over the heads of the natives by virtue of this kind of positive discrimination.
Hey, if I’m white AND unemployed, is that a case of two negatives making a positive and do I therefore get to be eligible for a job as well - or is that too complicated for Angel Gurria and his minions at the OECD to comprehend? Still, if you have an annual budget of 343 million euros and you still can’t get the economy right, you must be a bit lacking in the adding-up and taking-away department.
There is a quote, the owner of which I have forgotten (it might be H. L. Mencken) but it goes something like this:
“In every problem lies an opportunity so great that it almost always dwarfs the problem”
Tell you anything?
I also like this quote by H. L. Mencken:
“The men the American public admire most extravagantly are the most daring liars; the men they detest most violently are those who try to tell them the truth.”
Tell you anything else?

“Every problem has hidden in it an opportunity so powerful that it literally dwarfs the problem” I believe is the correct quote WWS but I’m also at a loss as to its origin. The perhaps ‘once only ever opportunity’ for the British National Party to save this Great Nation immediately springs to mind - Ed
Preferential Treatment for Immigrants has resulted in black women earning more than the whites.
It is a crime to be white, successful and claim to be a native Brit.
As on another posting, if we were to speak our minds we would be out of the BNP pretty damn quick! Thoughts of traitors spring to mind. As I type this channel 4 news are quoting the job losses for today, and we are still importing cheap labour. One of the stories I like about our situation, is that of the Bird Feeder, the mess, the eventual withdrawal of said feeder and the dispersal of the birds.
Brits are now surplus to requirement, what was it someone said when told that the British would never vote for the EU.
‘Well just import a new elecorate’ or words to that effect.

Hello
Well I feel sorry for the OECD people. Many here say they don’t have a clue what they are talking about, I’d rather think what they say is fully calculated. They perfectly know the consequences of what they preach. What can’t figure out, thogh, is whether they do it out of cowardice or intentionally, to destroy European countries. I feel sorry for them anway, as one day, they’ll pay.
However, what prevents us, Europeans, from saying ‘enough” and acting accordingly? That’s something I’ll never understand. Are we such cowards? I don’t think we are so why don’t we act? (Demonstations, obtaining the traitors’ resignation and make them pay for what they’ve done -with money and prison)? Why?
