Or maybe you would prefer that the jobs were not in the UK in the first place. That would soon sort out all these foreigners coming to "take" your job.

"This is a particularly dumb statement and cant quite fathom out the reasons for it."
- No, not really, its what you're suggesting in the last analysis. Foreigners are employed in the UK as there are not enough qualified British pilots. You're continually banging on about your mates that can't get jobs. But what experience do they have? Do you know of any, for example antipodeans, with 200 hours who walked into a jet job?? No, nor me. Not everyone wants to employ people with low experience.
Also the "welcome if I'm welcome where they're from" thing isn't a runner. No doubt you would be if you could speak the local lingo. But they ain't gonna change so the likes of you have a chance. Why would they? You'd have more luck getting British airlines to conduct operations in Scots Gaelic, Welsh or Olde English as appropriate.
