As an english person, do I have any right to protest against the amount of immigrants in my country,?

You have every right to protest against whatever you want. As our Government say, we have freedom of speach so go and protest as you have the right to do so..... but bear in mind that at the sdame time, you could also be in trouble for racism and inciting racial hatred etc.
The laws of this country are unfortunately high in double standards and very hypocritical.
You CAN do this but if you do, we will arrest you... blah blah.
The main cause of the problems such as the one that you are pointing out is that the English have one major problem.... can't be bothered....
I am not saying we are lazy but you tell the point you made to most ~English people and you will get the same reaction... Moan about it but at the end of the discussion, they will say "There's nothing we can do about it"
Then sit back while it happens.
Scotland has a parliament because the Scotts fought for it and got it.
The English seem to sit back and wait for it to happen for them which is why we never achieve anything.
I garuentee, whatever political issue there is, mention it to most English and they will say "Poinless doing anything, we wont get what we want" and they sill simply sit there and moan and NOT do anything about it.

With immigration, you DO need to define the protest because... Personally... I have NO problem with people coming to this country.
If someone moves here and works for a living, pays there taxes etc I have a lot of respect for them.
People that just come over and demand benifits and don't work, THAT I am against!
But with that, there are also ENGLISH people that do the same so is the actual problem immigration.... or false benifit claims?
I would rather sit and have a pint with an Indian bloke that works rather than an English bloke that REFUSES to work.

if we are not careful our great british island will sink because of an over weight problem..

You are right I am from Belfast and British and proud of it.

Why should we put up with, and pay for illeagal's.

Enoch Powell was right all those years ago!!

Gypsie

NO. WE NO LONGER HAVE ANY RIGHTS!

You most certainly do have a right to protest. You'd better speak to your party leaders. Be prepared, you'll not be popular, but you'll see how many like-minded citizens that will jump on the bandwagon.

Oh, and also be prepared, I suspect you'll get some mean responses to your question. Just ignore those.

celtic_princess77

i am totally on the band wagon with this one it is time to say ENOUGH is ENOUGH i used to have a friend who was indian but we fell out over an issue similar to this one and she said that people are coming to our country to get thier revenge because britain used to own a lot of land back in the day (india included) and they want to take over britain and make us bow b4 them (haha in thier dreams) the other reason they come here is coz of the free healthcare - as non british nationals they should have to pay, free healthcare should only be available to people born in this country who are british citizens (if you are indian or otherwise born in the uk that does not make you a british citizen) so yeah ive had my rant totally agree with you GET THEM OUT!!!

airpolicejohn

Good luck, same thing here in NY

tonyflair2002

90% of the population would agree with you _ but dare not say so !!

I'm with you and Tony Bliar is the cause of problems in
France and other countries with he's open door policies

Why not protest and take action?

I don't know very much about English law but I do know this.

THE ONLY THING YOU HAVE TO LOSE IS YOUR COUNTRY.

The responses your getting against you are just peer pressure wrong. Who convinced you people to give up and die?

Your brave whoever you are.

Cheers! <right?>

We have rights, but do you think anyone would listen?
They get our homes, jobs and the goverment wonders why they have to pay so much unemployment. Hell we could end up a third world country at this rate!

j20ndc

I think most will agree but too scared 2 say so. Those who dont are probably tucked away in a nice little village or too stupid to see the effect its having on society.
Iam a geography student, its a fact that immigration is essential for our economy as they will do the jobs we just dont wanna do. But enough is enough, why not spare a though for our homeless and our unemployed before we begin paying out for an immigrant 2 sit on their **** all day.

Stephen H

Yes you have the right as we have freedom of speech - but, you'll probably get a lot of aggro. I'm quite willing to help you though

lazybones

Yes, you should protest, but expect backlash from the P-C brigade and the bleeding hearts.

Wafflebox

You have a right to protest, but it's unlikely anything will be done.

You'd get loads of support I reckon but it just seems so hard to get anything done these day. A lot of people would be behind you though. I think there's a definate emergence of the 'enough is enough' way of thinking.

My main issue is that crime rates have risen so much and I know for a fact that you can hire an immigrant to do building work for next to nothing, thus meaning honest business men and women are losing trade. Not only is that not fair on people making an honest living, but it's not fair on the immigrants either.

I don't think we should say out and out 'no' to people seeking asylum, but just crack down on illegal immigrants and people who come here just to make money. It's hard enough to find an job here if you're a British citizen.

We need to stop spending money on housing and benefits for non UK citizens and spend that money on improving our hospitals and our elderly care facilities and education. We should be ensuring that our own citizens have what they need before we start helping others. It may sound selfish but at present I think it's necessary to restore our country to it's former glory.

Max K

You said that you go up to immigrants and ask them where they are from and tell them to leave. I am just curious as to how you find out who is an immigrant.

bob kerr

Surely the English are one of the most mongrel nations. If you go back far enough your ancestors almost certainly were not English. Try a little tolerance it may lead to enlightenment.

Allasse

I am scottish and in total agreement with you - immigration has benefitted our country ever since the romans gave us plumbing but its out of control now. It needs to stop except for professional immigration eg lawyers vets doctors nurses etc.

NO...you have no right...now stop complaining

Wu Tang

"i have got to the point where I go up to immigrants ask them where they are from and tell them to leave"

oh my.....you have SERIOUS problems :

lpemba

I always thought that most of the British specially English people were kind, sensible, very polite but after reading all the answer and there opinion I have come to the conclusion that there are some who are some very stupid, unreasonable and foolish.

Littleme

im 100% with you on this one! i dont know how you could protest against it, but goodluck... England is a shambles and us hard-working people have to pay for these immigrants to live here, pay for there off-spring etc.. i hate it!! f*uck everyone who disagree's with this and calls us heartless.... get them out of OUR country

Delle C.

I mostly agree with the welsh_witch. But what you should be protesting against is the benefits they receive, that should only be in place for very special cases, otherwise in order for them to receive any sort of financial aid (only if its very necessary), they would first have to have been in the country for a while and contributed to the country by working and paying taxes for a number of years. As for you going up to random strangers and asking them to leave, that is childish and really not the way to go about it, stop being so hostile and try to be a bit more tolerant of others. Throughout history people have migrated all over the world, it enables us to get to know each other and in a way promotes understanding. I think it would be a very dull world if we were all consigned to live forever in the country of our birth. Think about the positive, the enrichment of culture, better understanding of each other and quite often the valuable contributions to the country (shall we tell all the foreign doctors and people in similar positions that because they are foreigners they are not providing a valuable service and they should get out?)

totaly agrree send the bugers back all of them i dont care if they say we need them for the jobs our people will not do if they where not here people would do the work

LadyMoonlight!!

Anyone standing up to the wave of immigrants is going to get aggro and labelled a racist. But with the things that have been happening recently I am fully in support of such a campaign. I'd back you.

No chance anymore.

pig m

Sorry but as a 42 year old White Englishman i no longer have any rights but if i was a Somalian with uncheckable criminal records i could claim asylum get a council house get benefit free health care and insult the Western way of life .Who would support me if i was an immigrant??the prime ministers wife.

Lawyer

Yes,you can!
As the other countries as Spain,France, Bulgaria,Greece can say :" Enough is enough!!No more British people in our country!"

welsh_witch_sally

Grow up and look at the history books. Nobody is a true native of any place. Its a big world and we can all get along together if we stop being so bigoted.

Miss_Ali

You all have very strong views, and I have to agree with the bigger majority, These people, (Take into note, I'm far from a racist person) But they come over here, get whats given to them, then eventually take advantage, Now, UK is a big place, but at this rate We're gonna have no room to breathe!!!!! I Think it's time to face the Gov! Take back our own country!!!
