  • 'More GB residents work in the EU than EU residents work in the UK'
This is from the Migration Observatory :
'during the 1990s and early 2000s the number of EU citizens – excluding British – coming to the UK was broadly similar to the number of UK citizens moving to other EU countries. However, this changed in 2004 when eight East European countries – the so-called A8 countries – joined the EU. Since 2004 considerably more EU migrants have arrived in Britain annually than British citizens have moved from Britain to the (enlarged) EU. In 2010, 156,000 EU migrants came to the UK, while 34,000 UK citizens emigrated to other countries in the EU – indicating that a balance of 122,000 more EU migrants came to the UK than UK citizens emigrated to take up residence elsewhere in the EU'
Since 2010 net migration has been around 300,00, that's a city the size of Hull each year and our infrastructure can't and never will cope with.
  • 'EU workers are not born and don't die here' - Are you clairvoyant, most are under 30 years old. They won't be going anywhere except the money and benefits they send back 'home'.
  • 'Immigration has an overall positive effect on GB' - Try telling that to our youth trying to rent/buy a house. It's called supply and demand.
  • 'Glad we have got Trident , Without it we would be an easy target' - Somebody should tell MTG's mate - Corbyn.

You didn't expect all the socialist waffle to actually be facts did you Reprintt? they will still repeat all the bullshit verbatim though without checking to see if their brainwash cereal has any basis..
 
Not for 16+ which lets be honest are the most important years. Sixth form centres are closing whilst others are cutting corners which are affecting people's education.

Physics, Chemistry and engineering departments are closing due to funding shortages which are what the nation needs.
The most important part is up to gcse years if you don't get those focused on the rest doesn't matter. A lot of places are closing due to offering the same thing on different sites and also offering too much and not working with industry and other centres. The science and engineering departments are closing as the amount of apprentices was cut by labour so haven't got the new ones to teach the subject.
 
'Since 2010 net migration has been around 300,00, that's a city the size of Hull each year and our infrastructure can't and never will cope with'

Update :
For the last 12 months net migration is 382,000.
So that's Hull AND Bath that have moved here.
FFS it will only end if we with draw from the EU.
 
That is ridiculous to be fair. And we're committing to building 400,000 houses by 2020; fine. But that is only enough to house those who come over; what about the rest of us?! For the young ones it's nigh on impossible to buy now.
 
Annual figures to March 2015 were 330000 of which 183000 were EU migrants. 61% of these arrived with jobs to go to. A further 20% were students.

With non EU migrants (half are Chinese) about 50% are students, 25% are workers and 20% family members.

For those of working age 7% of all migrants claim benefits. The equivalent UK resident figure is 15%. 13% of all UK residents were born abroad
 
The issue for me is basically we are full.
No more room.
No seats on the bus.

It's not racist or right wing - it's simple fact.

To all white people, black people, Asian people, doctors, nurses, engineers, economic migrants - everyone- WE HAVE NO ROOM.

This is what really pisses me off about 'mainstream politics in this sick country-

Socialists want to welcome migrants due to a misplaced social obligation and some sort of apology for our colonial past.
Tories encourage migration because they are willing to work harder for less money and provide skilled people where we can't be arsed to train up our own.

They are BOTH wrong. We are FULL ffs - we are a small island.

However immigrants are benefitting the economy.
Foreign students help to fund universities and keep costs down.

And only around half of immigrants are from the EU. Therefore leaving the EU wouldn't solve the "problems" caused by the EU, despite the economics benefits.

Not forgetting the social benefits as well.

Where do you get this **** from?

immigrants are getting grants from the taxpayer and then return home so whats the benefit.

If half of the immigrants are from the EU and we leave that would halve the problem..

What are the social benefits??

BBC yesterday. And your second statement is purely fictional.

Social benefits are from EU law such as no roaming charges in the future and not needing a visa when you go on holiday.

do foreign students pay up front? or do they "owe" the money ?

The number of EU nationals working in the UK stood at two million from July to September, an increase of 324,000 compared to the same quarter last year
 
They pay upfront I believe and having looked round many Unis the cost varies from around £15,000 for arts degrees to around £24000 for STEM subjects but can rise up to £40,000 for medicine. (All costs per year)
 
I am not sure Corbyn is that unelectable to be honest.

If that was the case Michael Foot would've been elected with a huge landslide in 1983. Corbyn and the rest of his Islington mafia are delusional hence the decision to put Ken Livingstone in charge of the defence review???I see from his recent utterances that Kenneth hasn't lost his knack for being a terrorist mouthpiece ( IRA no longer fashionable?)

Elections are decided by the Governments ability to manage the economy and to provide security for the country; at least credit the electorate with some common sense: they will never vote for a revamped version of the Monster Raving Loony Party and along with it their Pandoras Box of questionable policies.
 
Merkel is now crapping herself and will live to regret the 'you can all come here policy'

I think the Austrians will be feeling the same. Short sighted doesn't even come close. What the hell were they thinking when the Greeks, Hungarians and every other crossing point to Western Europe said 'um, no ta' to a mass of humanity, but particularly lots of young men, flooding into their countries.

I'm glad I visited Germany (Munich) for the first time ever last year. I don't reckon I will be rushing back now it's full of immigrants.

Wait for the suicide bombings to start there next.

Hmm...always dangerous to act out of naive principles - problem is that everyone else has been obliged to mop up her mess. At least some good will come out of this shambles, the Schegen agreement will be flushed down the "S" bend. I fear that Merkel and the rest of those clowns in Brussels have made a rod for their backs ( seizure of 800 guns bounds for Belgium from Turkey...go figure?)

What is the measurement upon which you make the statement that we are full. I believe that in terms of people per square mile there are 50 more countries/dependencies/islands in the world that are more densely populated. In Europe the Netherlands and Belgium are worse than the UK is. So is it perception or fact?
