    Whilst the UK did take in many migrants after WW2 most found work and did well.
    Much of London transport would have come to a standstill had the numbers from Jamaica and other countries not come.

    That was fine until UK joined up with Europe.

    The initial concept of a Common Trading Market was good, but then it went pear shaped when it morphed into what it is now.
    An extremist socialistic concept where the rich will support the poor and those unwilling to contribute.

    Over the years the UK has become a dumping ground for refugees, bludgers, no hopers and those who think the EU is a well of support for those for whom work is a disease.

    Successive govs of both sides have not had the balls to do anything about it, the gravy train was far too good for that.
    Until strict border control is upheld the situation will continue to decline.

    Make December 12th count if you want a better situation.

    We do take in refugees, but they are screen very heavily and if found not to be what they say then out they go.

    Worst part of all is the fact that many Western nations give overseas aid to these countries, what the hell do they do with it?
    John,
    you should see the application form for a visa to enter India, it is very comprehensive and you will need a good memory, they even want to know your grandparents names and occupations.

    Slightly of thread, but in the u.k and especially if your Scottish and wish for Scotland's independence, you should be aware of the coming into force of the Lisbon treaty in 2020. This effectively turns the e.u. into a federal state and extends Schengen non borders to all member countries.

    The biggest problem I have with this is the harder I look the less likely I feel I am to see a final solution I just hope that whatever happens regardless of who wins that we do resolve this three years of idiocy

    Sadly, those in power have themselves in the last
    three years alone mis-managed all.

    Des, if only half of what I hear about his policies is true than all I can say is heaven help them if they are stupid enough to put him in.
    He wants to tax the super rich at a higher rate then the current rate of about 70%, but 23% of tax comes from them.
