Leave the UK?

a word of advice...grass is always greener blah, blah blah...

before you emigrate, sell house and all those bits collected over the years, why not try to move to the place you want to spend the rest of you life in for say...6 months (rent a house to trustworthy friends!). see if it's all what you think it is...

These would be the next target. Get those that can work, to work or stop their benefits.

Now, everything i have posted above would by no means make our beautiful country / community any better on it's own but it would make a start! It would seem though that by being British, i am the underdog in my own country. I have human rights, but not as many it would seem as someone who has come to my country in order to escape the atrocities which are happening in their own.

Therefore, you may as well take no notice of anything i have just said because much like a British citizen's opinion, it means nothing.

Yer go on then, laters.

So what are YOU doing about it?

Ol Boc you missed a rather key quotation from your list...

Not bitter, twisted maybe. Either way, I am correct. I suppose i could always pack up and move to Spain, that might be an idea

Fella I understand your pain believe me.

Evening all.
Whilst I have no objection to immigration in principle, as it's part of the natural progression of the worlds population, I have to agree with Baldood on a number of issues.
Namely, so called economic migrants, (as opposed to those being persecuted) really have no true justification to be here, therefore should only be allowed in if they can contribute to our economy. (400.000 Polish Citizens is more like an invasion, rather than them exercising their new found freedom).
Indeed we should 'come down hard' on spongeing layabouts in our system, be they immigrant or not.
Our Government are indeed a bunch of Pansies, who frankly lack the mettle to stand up to anyone. Hence they allow the country & it's people (including immigrants & those of immigrant descent) to be walked on by anyone who cares to, from individuals, to Brussels, & the good old USA.



Cheers.

Well said my thoughts exactly the problem is no one is doing anything about it

Please don't tar all immigrants to this country with the same brush. I know a few who came here after the fall of the shah who now employ a couple of hundred brits, pay more in than a million a year in tax and have contributed to my local environment.

There is nothing wrong with "economic migrants" if they are here to work, pay tax and contribute to society. It is the moaning idle brits who complain they cannot get a job because the poles have taken them that should be kicked out. If a pole is willing to do it, surely a brit would have had first opportunity and walked away.

Now go back and re-read what was originally said about "illegal immigrants and anyone else who doesn't contribute to economy / rapes the economy". I don't think anyone said they were all wasters.
