You got it Les, it was a wind up!
In truth though I have worked with Romanians back in London and have always found them hardworking etc, it's the Roma gypsies that cause the problems.
It seems that whenever there's a discussion around Brexit the topic of mass East European migration to UK comes up. For what it's worth I'm totally anti Brexit and not because of being pro immigration, but as a European I will possibly no longer have unrestricted access around Europe and to stay wherever for however long I want. So it's for selfish reasons and I kind of like being able to travel across Europe unhindered and I feel the Brexiteers have shot themselves in the foot regarding this. I may have got it wrong but the Brexit issue arose through years of anti Brussels feelings and misinformation about how much the UK pays in but gets nothing back, the euro zone crash which the UK never had to bail out and the tens of thousands of Syrian migrants that were supposedly going to swamp Europe and eventually end up in UK, the land of benefits and free health care, it never happened, just a couple of hundred washed up on the south coast.
If anything the Brexit issue has forced masses of East Europeans to flood to the UK before the doors close.
Brexit is a nonsense and just make living in the UK more expensive!
