Who says immigrants are good for the country ?

MumbaiJumbo

Not me pal, and i am afraid to diss them as the PC brigade ban me; so that's why you won't get a lengthy and articulate response from me here. lol.

The person who said Immigrants are good for the country is the guy getting overtime for handing out free government cheese. :-)

Big business say that, they make bigger companies so bigger profits.

However they put up the population and the share for the individual does not increase. Real British people lose a lot by overfilling the UK with a cheap foreign workforce

Edit; If bigger populations mean richer people why do many countries with smaller populations than the UK have a HIGHER living standard?

shelly lamb rubbish speller

oh boy they've certainly got you fooled

steve50

I'm would be surprised if there are not hundreds if not thousands of more in the UK.
But with this government who hide the true number's by using statistics it can be very difficult to winkle out these stories, and for obvious reasons.

One thing though puzzles me though, when I have watched some of these reality TV programs in a morning, why is mainly only white people (95%+) are portrayed as social misfits who live off the dole and expect everyone else to pay for their kids.
Where-as this news story clearly shows otherwise, why is it then that I have hardly seen any non-white people on these TV programs,,, WHY,,, not PC enough.

Skilled immigrants and those who are bringing money and opening businesses which help the British people are good for the country (where would we be without the late night shops owned by many Pakistani families for instance!). The ones who come with no skills and do not want to integrate are bad for the country and it should be harder if not impossible for economic migrants who have nothing to offer to come here.

In what numbers, and from where? Fill the uk with somalis and you'll start to think maybe they are not so good. And why is it always addressed from an economic viewpoint? What about from a social viewpoint. Mosques popping up on every street, classes full of kids where 1 speaks english.

And after reading that article, im not suprised. When people start getting really upset about the economy, they will vent their greiviences towards immigration issues as well,

David c: the eastern europeans dont sponge anywhere near as much as the arab/north africans. But they are here for similar reasons - more money, and its funny how many of them are buggering off back to Poland now that the economy is struggling, shows where their priorities lie.

They may be of some use after all, I'm thinking cannon-fodder for Islamic Terrorists or use them as fuel for when we run out of energy and have to burn bodies in the street to keep warm. Last in, first out, I say.

It is good if you are the landlord.

Many American Indians might disagree with that notion.

The reason immigrants are good for this country is a direct result of the fuc*ing stupidity of the british Obsession with"higher education".Instead of kids leaving school at 16 and going out and getting a trade in building,engineering or some other trade that this country needs we send them to college or university to get some crap degree in media studies,photography or some such shi*e.We then need some polish cowboy who tells us hes a plumber ,builder or engineer and makes a fu*k up of the job.We have to realise that we need skilled workers not just 3rd rate university bloody graduates.This all started to manipulate unemployment figures for young people but now it has become an "education" industry that has no benefit for the country.

Ooooh. I feel the need to be a refugee from the Republican Government. Please... I was first to think of this so I will go first.

David C

This story makes my blood boil, but please do not compare these parasites to Eastern European immigrants who, for the most part, are in the UK to work and not sponge off the state like these 'political refugees" who recognise what a soft spot the UK is

Interesting. I presume that all these thumbs down mean that a lot of people think it's perfectly OK for this woman to live a life of luxury at the British taxpayer's expense.

Trigga: A lot of the Poles I have spoken to only ever intended to stay for 3 to 4 years so you will see large numbers of them going home. Also, as the pound has fallen against the zloty by 35%, the difference in wages is not as big as it was.

People like this woman we are stuck with for life because she will never find a job that could pay her the sort of money she is getting now

Some good, some bad. Mind you, the American w(b)ankers have proved that foreigners don't actually have to enter a country to screw it up. Compared to them, a few Czech fruit pickers are hardly a worry.

robert c

I disagree with the questioner!Only those with specific skills should be allowed into the country!

If they come here for a better life and not to do crimes and work hard then they are good but if otherwise then no they are bad
