I don't think the EU has ever been responsible for the influx of migrant workers to this country as we are not part of the Schengen Agreement, you can thank the last labour government for that.....

Errr, yes they are! Illegal immigrants got in and are still getting in by the EU not stopping them from leaving the first safe port of call as per the EU Dublin agreement which was meant to be as sacrosanct as the Shenghen Agreement.

Trouble is,as per usual, the EU only used it as and when it suited them. There is no way any immigrant should have been allowed to get as far as the Channel coastline and over to us.

As regards migrant workers - no, we cannot stop them, and don't want to if they are of benefit to our economy. but what we didn't ask for, and still don't want, are the European benefit scroungers, pickpocket families and criminals also coming across. We have enough of our own thank you.
The sooner this stops, the better.

Well he missed my house last year so I'm not too fussed. Does that mean the EU will stop dangling carrots for Rudolph?
