Immigration - BBC One, Monday 23 July at 2030 BST

[Clippy]

Immigrants are the salvation for ageing populations and countries with an inadequate population growth rate.

Not only that, more immigrants = more schools and hospitals and greater cultural diversity.

New Labour have it right I reckon.

It's the CC.net Troll.

No they dont. They have no knowledge of who is coming in to this country. Immigrants are not being integrated into our country and and made to respect our laws and our culture. There is the small matter of 4 million unemployed people who should be working before we need to bring in immigrants.

[Charles Foster Kane]

Need I say more?

So let us say that for arguments sake 25% of the population are educated at private school and 75% at state school. Of the 4 million unemployed do you believe therefore that 75% of those are state school people and 25% are private school educated?

The point you are completely missing is that there are a lot of good state schools, such as those CTC's funded in part by large companies. When you say 'state schools' you are making a sweeping statement, try using the term 'low performing state schools' in future.

You can't just bundle the good and the bad state schools together as a whole.

But what happens to the host culture?
Exactly what is happening now!
The immigrant culture at a certain point, starts to assimilate the host.
In parts of wales they are changing road signs to read in polish as well as english and welsh.
What next?
I don't mind a multicultural society but when a housholder is told by the police and the local council to remove piggy bank ornaments from their front window because the pigs upset passing muslim immigrants, that is going too bl00dy far.

Now we are getting somewhere. If you bothered to read my previous post I did say this. You seem to have a huge chip on your shoulder about all this which is reminiscent of the basis on which socialists run our education system. They (and you obviously) hate private schools (and IT contractors too for broadly the same reasons), which quite apart from creating a neat redherring to excuse the states failure to educate every child properly, is more of a reflection on them/you than those who went to them.

I think it is also telling that we never see black (or Asian) on white hate crimes reported as such, even black on black or Asian on Black.
Take that poor bugger in Stoke who was abused for months before finally being killed by his Asian neighbours. Reported as a neighbourly dispute. Or that riot in Brum between Asians and Blacks. It was a race thing but that side of it was played down.
It seems we are not allowed to know that they may have race issues. (I say they becaus eI am white OK!)
