Re: No Foreigners

You can't chuck The Duke of Edinburgh out.....be reasonable people.
What about all those Curry houses ? Corner shops ? Aldi and Lidl.....the list is endless.

We need to control immigration for the countries benefit not stop it entirely.

No Julie, that's not awful, but the basic facts are we don't have enough of "OUR" people!

We're an ageing population and to support them, we need younger people to work........... very simple! Not terrible and certainly not something to be ashamed of!

Something we have singularly failed to do for years.
Offer them the option: work or lose your benefits.

Before the inevitable thunderstorm from the do-gooders, those unable to work (medically or otherwise) would be exempt of course.

Perhaps I could rephrase that.

Ensure that the dole is worth less than the pay!

Hmmm - I agree........... but will say that because of huge benefit fraud, there are seriously strict rules, so strict that it can be difficult for genuine people to get benefits. Have you ever watched the film "I Daniel Blake"? - it's a really good film - suggest you see it.

A very naive point of view IMHO. Immigration has nothing whatever to do with being nice, non-racist, welcoming liberals, and everything to do with the rich who really run this country wanting mass imports of cheap labour to drive down wages and further emasculate the trades union movement. In addition, the effect of immigration on those poorer countries whose workforces are being tempted to the UK is devastating. Do you think that the countries which have, for example, trained all their doctors and nurses only for them to up sticks and move here, can afford to lose their human resources?
Mass immigration is bad for UK workers, and even worse for the poor countries from which they come. There is nothing "nice" or "progressive" about mass immigration - it is purely concerned with increasing the profits of the rich.

Lots of people on here have their pensions Julie and no doubt there are those who will be getting them soon as well.

Hi

If that was the case, why does Labour not want to control Immigration?

Great viewpoint - certainly gives the other side of the coin. Perhaps those foreign workers came here for "stablity"!!!
