If you are being invaded you deal with it. End of story. The real truth is they want to flood the country with these types.Why 1997? We have witnessed influx before that, going right back to the Romans and Vikings. The problem is that data for those isn’t available so all we have are estimates.
That said, we can agree that the % of us who were born abroad is higher today than it’s ever been before. That though is no reason at all not to expect those people, but more especially their successors, to become more and more British as they attend schools and absorb our culture. To say nothing about intermarriage!
That there are some problems is obvious, which is why we need to be proactive to ensure it happens.
If it was possible to just “turn them around” it would have been done years ago. We are bound by legal obligations and conventions. We have no alternative other than to cooperate with our European neighbours to tackle the issue of the trafficking gangs at source.
It might be frustrating but it’s the reality. So we need to develop realistic responses within the UK. Of course illegal immigration gets all the headlines but most immigration is legal, much of it to fill jobs that would otherwise go unfulfilled. Many of these people will become citizens and continue being useful members of our society, paying their taxes and eventually becoming one of us. Just as they always have.
As you can see from Islamabad in Farnham (my right wing theory). Is this how they become more British.
You say we need immigration to fill jobs etc.
True we have become over reliant on it. Especially NHS.
it's always an African person helping a special needs person, walking down the road.
I'm not ignorant to that. My wife's African, I get the good that's done.
But we don't have enough houses or money being paid out. Plus the well documented cultural issues.
Those cultural issues don't apply to my home. My wife's a Christian. Probably why it's all good here.
