should we put immigration on hold for 5yrs as suggested by the ukip?

Michelle T	here here ... yeah a brilliant idea they should make it 10 years :D

am	I see nothing wrong with people of British origin such as Americans of English, Scottish, Welsh, Irish descent moving here and becomming citizens. People from European Union I think should be let in if there is really a need for them or if they are planning to start a business. We should ban third worlders from comming here completely, except as Tourists

Alfonze H	It is an excellent idea. It also has to run hand in hand with a massive crackdown on illegals being deported and armed, properly controlled borders. It should be put in place for 10 years not 5 and we should stop ALL immigrants coming in for that time until we had an accurate figure for how many people we have got living in the UK.

bringmesunshine	Another party jumping on the Daily Mail bandwagon. This shows that the media in this country has too much power.

trish	Brilliant, if it could be implemented. Someone somewhere would really have to put some thought into making it happen! It would give the country a respite and give us time to sort a few things out with regards to illegals and benefits and regulations etc. It would benefit the people already here as well by maybe removing some of the hostility we feel towards them because of the uncontrolled immigration we are having now. Its like a runaway train and we will all crash at some time soon!

Heather mk2	Sounds like a good idea. I have no problem with skilled migrants coming here or people in dire situations at home that need refuge. I have a problem with the flood of people coming in and pretending to be skilled tradesmen, bringing down the level of pay all over different industries and forfeiting rights our workers have fought for for years. We have other problems as a country we need to sort out before we look to being the good Samaritan.

devout_4ever_2dogs	Well the horse has well and truly bolted, the politicians only care about there country retreats and not the tax payers who fun there life style. Regards Ryan Dior

chimp	a very good idea except id make it 10 years instead!!!

rosemary1958	Absolutely! We are a comparatively small country and we simply do not have the space. Our greenbelt is slowing being used for more and more building projects. If people wish to emigrate to western Europe, they should try for less overcrowded countries than ours. Or maybe they should go to the USA. Lots of vast spaces there. However, we do have to be tough on those who enter the country illegally - no messing about.

claireco	no - bad idea.

Halo	Yes! but only for new request as there are pending which must have a decision.

oykarumba7	sure lets have another 5 million enter so bush can get cheap labor for his pals and the middle class can deteriate even more

daveg1222	No. But definitely get CONTROL of it, and make it a smooth progression.

Natty	I dont care as long as I make good money, quite honestly, and no new taxes

Michael M	try it and see if it works.

vanessa p	Great Idea but will it ever happen?

ERIC C	I am sure the French will continue to find ways to assist them to leave their country nd find a way into ours!

maccrew6	but if it's like here in the US, they'll just sneak in anyway........
