As the research I linked to yesterday demonstrates, immigrants overall have a positive effect on GDP. I recall reading in New Scientist a few weeks ago that immigration will lead to the deficit being cut more quickly.
I'm not a fan of large scale immigration, but it seems that there's no argument against it on financial grounds. Did you think the immigration numbers were down to soft-hearted ideologues?Down with racism. Long live miscegenation!Comment

Problem is for every skilled worker that's shipped in, there's one native lazy arse on benefits that doesn't become skilled when they're probably more than able to..Originally posted by Nigel Farage MEP - 2016-06-24 04:00:00"I hope this victory brings down this failed project and leads us to a Europe of sovereign nation states, trading together, being friends together, cooperating together, and let's get rid of the flag, the anthem, Brussels, and all that has gone wrong."Comment

Originally posted by NotAllThere View PostYour view is borne entirely out of prejudice. Immigrants aren't just skilled workers - it's your service industry staff as well. As a matter of public record, immigrants are less likely to be social spongers than native born British. But hey - don't let the facts get in the way of your rabid xenophobia.
