The Guests Who Won't Go Home
' We asked for workers, we got people.' (SWISS ECONOMIST) There are now about 15 million ' guest workers ' and families in Western Europe. From Turkey, North Africa, all around the Mediterranean, they came to fuel the industrial boom of the 50s, 60s and early 70s.
The theory was that they would go home. But vast numbers show every sign of staying put without political rights, security or a real prospect of citizenship. In the mid-70s, Germany and France banned further recruitment.
But still one child in three born in Frankfurt is a foreign child. And there are well over a million illegal migrant workers in Western Europe.
From the International Labour Organisation in Geneva - and through the eyes of German, French and Dutch television-Robert McKenzie and Valerie Singleton report on ' the new coolies' of Europe.
From France. Robin Denselow explains tough new measures, lopal and otherwise. aimed at sending home the unwelcome guests.

Dyslexia, medically recognised tor
80 years, is the inability to read and write in children of normal to high intelligence. Ten per cent of our schoolchildren have trouble learning to read and write. But the Department of Education does not accept the existence of dyslexia, so how many of these slow learners are dyslexic is arguable.
Michael Dean examines the controversy and reports from the only dyslexia clinic run entirely by the Health Service, at St Bartholomew's Hospital in London. He follows the fight for help for just two children: Adrian [text removed]. aged 8, from Norfolk, and Judith [text removed] , aged 6, from Berkshire. Producer HARRY WEISBLOOM Editor TIM SLESSOR
