"Can they not be both proud to be Polish and British? Poland as their homeland of culture and tradition and Britain as their home of opportunity and values that they find match their own and were they want to live. " My hubby's family can trace its roots back to 832 on his Dad's side to the McLarens, his mum's side to 1243 in Switzerland he was born in Yorkshire lived 90% abroad speaks fluent at least 6 languages and is more British then I'm how was born in Yorkshire and never has left Yorkshire and speak one language... There is nothing to hold against people arriving in Britain who work and settle here. But the 1 little thing that nags me is that they think other "laws" should apply to them... When I was with hubby in Switzerland it was an eye opener... One law for all end of story there.. | |||

"They come to Britain as they are nothing more than parasites who take everything and give nothing back " I pay a shed load of tax at a high rate. I pay National Insurance and many other taxes. If you can point me in the direction of not giving anything back I will attempt to do so. I do lay with your women and steal your land though. | |||

When I was with hubby in Switzerland it was an eye opener... One law for all end of story there.." Do they think other laws apply any more than the native population? For example 90% of motorists think UK motorway are autobahns and drive to their own limits. D*unken loutish behaviour is seen as a bit of fun rather than anti social. I'm sure some foreigners think different laws apply but so do UK naturals. So it's a matter of perspective, my issue is around capacity and social cohesion. It's fine saying immigration adds to gdp. But that's the same as saying 1+1=2. Its the wrong calculation. Housing is not the issue either as you could build another London and it would not put that much of a dent in the countrys greenery. For me the basics are is there enough food capacity and water capacity in the UK for it to be able to feed it's own if there was ever an issue importing food from elsewhere. The second is regardless of whether we can accommodate more people what is the impact on those already here? Not just economic but social and wellbeing. Of course industry wants a bigger employee base as it suppresses wages, but if you are not comfortable and not in secure employment what is the effect on the low wage end of society were people are only bad luck and good fortune away from being unemployed. | |||

"I think applying to become a citizen of a country signifies your intention to stay." Perhaps this...and maybe because they are proud to call themselves a British citizen... makes them feel a bit more at home and not segregated. I guess it was inevitable some nonsense would be posted on an migration thread. How do people get through life being so narrow minded? | |||

"They come to Britain as they are nothing more than parasites who take everything and give nothing back " I came here in 94 since which time I have been gainfully employed, which is more than I can say for about 30% of my village, some of whom have never known what it is to work. But I guess that's OK with you because they are British. | |||

"glad that so many of my fellow fabers agree with a selective process so we only get people we want....sounds like a ukip manifesto " There is nothing wrong with being selective. No country is obligated to just take in foreigners willy nilly without due consideration of their potential benefits and contributions to society. And most importantly countries also need to consider if new immigrants would be able to assimilate with local society in an acceptable time period too. Being selective doesn't make one xenophobic. I for one as a Non-EU foreign undergrad here wish that the UK was stricter on economic migrants and cheap labour from the EU because it is their influx that is screwing with the British labour market, and yet non-EU citizens have to pay the price of stricter regulations. | |||

"Can they not be both proud to be Polish and British? Poland as their homeland of culture and tradition and Britain as their home of opportunity and values that they find match their own and were they want to live. " For me no i would never take nationalization from any country in the world. Simply because I will always be English. Yes learn the language, respect the cultures, abide by the home countries rules,laws and work etc. But you will always be what you are. | |||

"I saw something about the jungle in calis and the people they interviewed think that the uk is rich it's a kingdom and when you live here you become wealthy your given money and houses and you don't have to work it's like the promised land and even when told it's not like that then still wanted to come suppose anything is better that's a tent in France" And the irony is that lawfully these people who claim to be refugees are supposed to be claiming asylum in the first country they arrive in. I wonder by what fluke of geography is France and Britain the first frontier for then after they make their water crossing from the Middle East to Europe? I say no sympathy for these "migrants". If they were truly in need of asylum in the UK the RAF could have very well flown them in direct instead. | |||

I'm English by the way !! " This If people cone over and work and pay taxes same as I do thats fine, no issues with those at all.

"Oddly nobody seems to remember or care that the britsh used to be the migrant labour force, off to work as labourers and brickies in Europe. It's just a ton of bleeting of "ohh no Europeans are coming and doing our jobs"" You'll find many have selective memory or like to ignore history. It was about 150 years ago the Irish were being called vermin and all the names under the sun... then it was the Jews... and now... well you get the picture. | |||

They are the ones we should be complaining about billions lost in tac to these scum. And people complain about a family getting a few grand per year. Yes they may not have put into the system. But all these companies do is take take take. | |||

"They come to Britain as they are nothing more than parasites who take everything and give nothing back " I have my own views on immigration but I find it unfair to paint everyone with one brush like that. Being in London, you see most, if not all public services and many other necessary services run my immigrants who either came here recently or 30-50 or their parents and grandparents came. My family came to England as immigrants and worked like hell, spent more time at work then at home with their kids, paid their taxes and made a living for themselves. Now myself a hold of immigrants work in a good profession developing software which everyone uses. So again, unfair mate. | |||

"This is just the latest problem created by the government to distract us from the real creators of the economic downturn. Try reading what Goering said at his trial "Naturally the common people don't want war: Neither in Russia, nor in England, nor for that matter in Germany. That is understood. But, after all, IT IS THE LEADERS of the country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is TELL THEM THEY ARE BEING ATTACKED, and denounce the peacemakers for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. IT WORKS THE SAME IN ANY COUNTRY." --Goering at the Nuremberg Trials" Dead right | |||

"calm down dears.....this is a forum for all....consider all views....me ....OUT OF THE EU....SELECTIVE IMMERGRATION....CLOSE BORDERS FOR THIS REASON....PLUS VOTE UKIP ...TK U ALL" People happily debate the issue of migration daily and furthermore people generally respect other peoples views. The issue people have in this thread is that the statement comments all migrants are parasites. Its ridiculous to be so generic and cannot be supported in any sense. | |||

Now they will be entitled to housing until they die...a full British pension which we have paid for for 30 years with another 5 to go to get the contributions in....where is the fairness. | |||

"the funny part is that people from Uk are over the world, over a million in spain, but when others come to uk are "scum willing to steal our jobs and use our health system", I guess this kind of people didn't heard about the european card that gives you health care all around europe and you home state pays for it, so when a spaniard/french/polish comes to uk and they go to the doctor their country pays for it, but also remember that all the systems are paid with taxes, and the taxes are not just coming from your salary, they also are in every single thing you buy. and about the job, if a person who doesn't really speaks english is able to get your job as KP, HK or other shitty job maybe is because you are not that good for that job about health tourism... some areas of spain are full of british which are using the spanish health system and the locals think exactly the same" Well you have to have British people living in Spain who's going to make egg and Chips for the holiday makers other wise | |||

I once suggested mcdonalds to someone struggling to get a job, as they helped me back to my feet when I was out of work and struggling. Their response? "F*ck that, it's Polish money!" I don't speak to then now. End of the day anyone coming here has a dream and goes for it. My respect to them! | |||

"The country can only hold so many people tho, and at the moment it's not coping. Housing crisis, not enough school places, long nhs waiting lists, yet we still continue to let 10s of thousands of people in each year. We do need to put a stop on immigration for at least 5 years to sort the problems out." No offence but that's hilarious. You say it like public services are inherently limited somehow! Did you ever hear a business complaining that they had too many customers? Working people pay taxes, taxes fund public services. More working people = more money for public services. | |||

" Hang on does your taxes not pay for health care? Why should people have to pay taxes and their own health care? | |||

"Immigrants is taking jobs that the british don't want, so don't complain there aint any jobs, cos there is lol. I've noticed time and time again that the main people who moan about immigrants taking jobs are those who don't even work, I actually think deep down they like the immigrants because it gives them an excuse not to work Well I would have a job if all these foreigner didn't keep taking them " Perhaps evidenced by the fact that unemployed changed by a factor of absolutely fuck all between 2004-2005 when we started letting Polish people in. Yet thousands of them came here and found jobs. Hmmmm how would that work... | |||

As long as people think that way, there will be slimy politicians ready to represent them. It's not like "taking personal responsibility" is ever going to be a vote winner. | |||

"The country can only hold so many people tho, and at the moment it's not coping. Housing crisis, not enough school places, long nhs waiting lists, yet we still continue to let 10s of thousands of people in each year. We do need to put a stop on immigration for at least 5 years to sort the problems out." have you thought about who should you vote? in 6 years I just been once in the hospital, I was pretty fucked up, most of the people there weren't inmigrants, don't blame for the queue or lack of schools to the inmigrants if you vote to a party who make cuts on so important matters, but I guess is alright NHS investing a few billion on a database that never worked, how many hospitals could be built with that money (I was told a hospital cost £60Million) | |||

"there is no difference in the pension scheme for british and foreigners (at least not for europeans) it would go against the equality act 2010, as it would be a discrimination due the nationality of someone" Yes but state pension is contribution based. And it's based on years of contributions. | |||

"I think applying to become a citizen of a country signifies your intention to stay." My sister was born in England in 1966. She has lived in Italy since 1988. Married, has a child, owns her home in Milan outright, drives a new Mercedes, paid for in cash, has absolutely no intention of ever returning to the UK and now has to travel to Rome to renew her residency papers but will never relinquish her British passport. | |||

" if someone moves to uk and starts working until retirement, let's say 35 working years, the pension will be the same than someone born british who has been working for 35 years, both with the same income | |||

"If you want to come and live on the UK then that's fine by me. All I ask is you pay in before you take out. I think that's more than fair. Mark" What about those born here who take out without putting in? | |||

"Im strongly in favour of strict Immigration controls - 1. Male or Female - They should be sexy and fit 2. They should love going swinging. 3. If Female they should be bisexual. The rest should be evicted at once and sent back to be boring somewhere else " At last...the voice of reason . | |||

" It is refreshing to see so much thought be put into a post. What I would say is that there is some very lacklustre English people as well as those listed. What people forget is being lazy or rude is not limited to any particular nationality. As an aside, I am not sure China is a model country for many matters to be honest with you. | |||

Yeah I just feel that some countries are better represented than others. BBC have a hard-on for anyone democratic and would have you believe everyone else is an oppressed group of neanderthals desperate for western civilision. I went to India and found it quite like I expected, loved it by the way. | |||
