Why are they faffing about with an old Cessna probably destined for some rural grass strip? Why don't the Albanians just pitch up at Heathrow on a scheduled flight and hand their list of expectations regarding entitlements, benefits and housing etc to the first official they find. If they timed it right they could score themselves the TGIF meal drink combo special in the terminal while they await their paperwork being approved, transport organized and government cheque being cut. Weren't they aware of the bonanza that awaits? We as a country are letting them down, we need to do a far better job of outreach overseas to enlighten potential economic migrants on just how well versed we are at dishing out goodies.
