Indeed. But they don’t do them again.

 

I have this funny feeling that maybe you just don't get it.

 

"It"?

 

1) We never used to be, when we had control over half of the world we cerainly weren't tolerant, this tolarance thing is something the progressives and left have pushed the last 2 decades and it's brought us to the point where as a country we have no money, crimes don't get punished or even investigated and secterain violence is a very real possibility in the near future.

2) They aren't good enough to be here....not all cultures are equal !
Any migration here should only be the very best that are a positive in financial terms and they should integrate and not be telling us what we should and should not be doing like those in Birmingham recently ! We are not the world's bread basket and never ending free money tree, that's even before we come on to the topic of the crimes that come along with them !

 

****ing state of this. Money is low because the wealthy are accumulating it and hoarding it at a staggering rate, while basing themselves of out tax havens to ensure they dont have to pay fair tax on it. The country has been privatised, so essentials are held hostage by investors and shareholders, and our quality of life is tied to an idea that a line must continue to go up.

The majority of migrants are working age and migrants generally have a net positive fiscal contribution, and pay more in tax than they receive in public services. This tax can then be used to fund public services, the NHS etc. Crimes can get punished if you fund the police correctly.

Regarding the last part about integration, I see plenty of integrated immigrants. They run their own business, they keep our hospital running, they feed us, they clean up after us. They contribute, they pay tax. What the **** do you think integrating is?

 

Theres a huge difference between 50k employable, wanting to work migrants and 50k unemployable spongers with their associated issues. They are the things that concern people on migration and its about time people recognise the difference, they are not part of same discussion.
