Originally posted by darmstadt View PostSo, pray tell what is it about? I could only find a manifesto for local council elections for 2013 and most of that seems to be taken from the Tory one (whereas the Tories seem to have taken immigration from the UKIP one.) Although interestingly enough even the local manifesto seems to play a lot on immigration:

Do you honestly mean to tell me that you still intend to vote for any of LibLabCon after the way they've run this country in recent years? Are you stupid?
Please don't tell me that you're one of those "I refuse to vote because they're all tulipe!" types. By not voting at all you just allow the same old LibLabCon to get in and do as they please, which most likely won't be what suits ordinary folk like us who actually need to work for a living.Comment

Originally posted by Mich the Tester View Post13 million British naationals abroad (estimated), some born abroad to British parents, some born in Britain, some born in Britain because their British parents flew over for the birth to avoid the jus sanguinis/ just soli distinction that made Boris Johnson's kids Belgian (as if that's such a disaster). Plus Hong Kong; British nationals but not citizens, and various others.
It's a consequence of sending colonialists, aid workers, missionaries, oil workers, soldiers, embassy staff, academics, techies and so on all over the world to screw the locals. Except of course for the last 40 years or so the screwing has taken on a different form to the days of the empire.Comment

This basically means that UK citizens are more of a drain on the state than migrants, in fact figures from the Department for Work and Pensions even bear that out.
In other words, your government, your right-wing political parties and your scurrilous facist press are once again lying to you in order to further their own agenda. As The Who once said "Won't get fooled again", sadly you are...

Half a million immigrants given social housing in the last decade - Telegraph
Conclusions woolly but the facts should be OK.

Please explain how increasing the workforce appreciably with people willing to work for much less doesn't result in more locals being unemployed or lower wages? Those unemployed will claim benefits and miss experience that will build better jobs in future.Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.Comment

Originally posted by CoolCat View PostBrits abroad tend to pay at least as much tax as the locals. Indian ICT workers here get signifianct tax and national insurance dispensations, and the Indian outsourcers bringing them in typically setup their tax affairs to pay corporate taxes in havens and not in the UK. Brits in India pay for their childrens schools and families education. And so on.
I believe there have been studies showing that immigrants make a net contribution in the UK, but they were obviously flawed because they didn't confirm the Daily Wail's point of view.And what exactly is wrong with an "ad hominem" argument? Dodgy Agent, 16-5-2014Comment
