    Integration is the word. If you move to another country to live and intend to raise your family there, your intention should be to fit in. If you don't agree with that countries life view, don't move there. I get really angry about incomers trying to change our country rather than add to it. Haven't spent millennia arriving in the 21st century to turn round and become mediaeval. Poles don't bother me because they will probably work and their children and grandchildren will be fully integrated. Adding to our cuisine is the nice bonus from immigrants.

    You don't know every Polish person tho? Like I could say the Polish I know are lazy drunks that don't work and won't learn so all Polish are the same. Just because you know decent hard working Polish it doesn't mean some aren't here to claim benefits.(same can be said with all nationalities)

    The Sun article is actually ok, it takes views from both sides without actually taking a side.

    Watched some of the London Marathon earlier. Makes me want to do another one! Have been trying to get into the London Marathon for years, maybe next year. I see Natalie Dormer AKA Margaery Tyrell ran it this year. Makes me want to run it even more :p

    Go for it! Although getting a place is as difficult as actually running it.

    I think it's hard for immigrants to fully integrate, but I think their children will integrate fine. There does need to be a cap on immigration though as there's not that much supply so the demand needs to be lowered.

    There was an article about the Polish PM visiting the UK to see what all the fuss was about, I think. I bet countries like Poland thought that joining the EU would be beneficial, but they're losing a lot of their top workers to the more advanced countries, and who can blame them with the poor working conditions in Eastern Europe. I don't think that many immigrants come over for our benefits, I think they come over for better working conditions and get a better income. The ones that claim benefits and refuse to work should be told to find a job or risk losing their benefits.
