    That's why I added the bit about removing their costs. Bloody leeches.

      well their contributions would have done if the government hadn't spent it all on stupid causes.

        You are the one advocating meddling, however if we look at the Boomer generation before mass immigration (note the 60->90s was a small fraction of current migration.) they seemed to do quite well.
        Label it how you wish. But:

        1. You want to change policy to reduce immigrations
        2. This will result in the size of younger generations decreasing while older generations increase
        3. Tell us the economic impact of this.

            "Diabetics are banned from driving" - not currently being enforced, but watch out !

            Back in late 2011 before DC became EU radicalised..
            "What has an EU directive on whether people with diabetes should be allowed to drive have
            to do with the single market, asked David Cameron in a pop at Brussels in his
            speech to the Tory party conference on Wednesday"

              Ah I see you are going to label it in badly formed inglish.

              I have made a few suggestions earlier. Of course we don't know unless you are a Bremainer in which case we will all be eaten by giant spiders or caterpillars.

              Japan is the obvious case

              however that is probably why they are investing robotics so heavily, their care givers will run on batteries.

              Wages will rise or costs fall as there will be fewer of working age. Mechanisation will become more common.

                no but is how it should work if it had been managed correctly.

                  Sounds like you have it all thought through. Well done.

                    well do share your wisdom, you obviously disagree, lets see if us mere mortals can understand your expert opinion
