Now they have no shame criticizing the very country who has helped boost their ailing economy. Why don't they go help their own homeless and poor people instead. He also continued to say: What the u.k. press does not know is that these workers often support 3 families with the salary they earn here and send home. Their living conditions in their home country is far worst than in the labour camps here. They are often not even familiar with hygene, and even if given 5 star accomodation will manage to turn it into what it is today. ======= S1000+ ======= -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~--- --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "World-thread" group.
