Also claims saying leadership takes 'balls' sexist as it is 'gender specific'
Takes balls to be that stupid, that's for sure.
Regarding the pensioners, say what now? There's no trust fund, to which our NICs are funnelled?
It raises the question, why does Britain need to funnel in never-ending droves of people, immigrants, native-born or otherwise, to sustain the NHS and the pensioners?
According to the 2007 Home Office report on the supposed benefits of immigration (which omitted some major costs) migrants contributed less on an age-related basis, the only advantage was that they had no pension or disability costs. That means that when they get old in turn they will have contributed less than our own elderly. So what happens then? Import an even bigger number to cover the increased costs? How long can you keep expanding the population in a smallish country?
Another minor problem we are not supposed to mention is that some ethnic groups, products of previous migrant "savings of our economy", are among the least productive and the children they produce are also considerably more likely to be unemployed than the average.
The real solution for the UK is a high tech economy. Education subsidy should go only to those pursuing the skills the nation needs. We should use machines, tools, products and methods that reduce manpower required in all areas. Turn high street shops into internet pickup points. Keep raising the retirement age and make more use of those who have retired. Charities and volunteer groups are already largely run by fit retired people but too many are middle class professionals, the voluntary sector needs wider scope and appeal. Immigration of highly skilled people may well be a positive but what we are getting now certainly is not.
I'm a bit confused as the picture is of Stella Creasy yet the title in the link is Rosamund Urwin who, AFAIK, is a journalist on the Evening Standard and looks like this:
Breed for Britain! Without immigrants women will need 'a lot of children' to save economy, claims Labour MP Stella Creasy
Party rising star says migrants crucial to support growing number of elderly
Claims Nigel Farage is 'deeply unpatriotic' because he wants UK 'decline'
Also claims saying leadership takes 'balls' sexist as it is 'gender specific'
Without immigration British women will have to have 'a lot of children very quickly' to keep the economy and the NHS afloat, a Labour rising star has claimed.
Stella Creasy, 37, said Nigel Farage was 'deeply unpatriotic' because his policies on Europe and immigration were 'basically talking about managing the decline of Britain'.
The unmarried Labour MP said without immigration women already in the UK will have to breed for Britain to support the growing number of pensioners.
