Mass immigration is a disaster waiting to happen.
When the idiots who promote it realise, it will be too late.
I suspect they don't care.

Very well said, and greedy cnuts at the top creaming off the spoils , but thats ok, its just "business", if we didnt pay them huge salaries, they would go elsewhere,,,well fcuk off elsewhere i say, america dont want them, they got enough talent in wall street, the con party are conning us!

The lack of new social accommodation/council housing added to the major housing deregulation acts back in the 80's and exposing it to the full force of free market economics has been the biggest let-down for the general population imo and absolutely nothing to do with over-population but successive governments lack of will and foresight and unhealthy obsessions.

The younger can work as hard as they like but how are the majority going to be able to get a mortgage in their mid-twenties when flats are way out of reach financially and for independence there are no council places either?

Thatcher started the rot.

Agree with this. The taxpayer will get their money back eventually. The alternative was to let the banks go to the wall. This would impact hundreds of thousands of folks who who work for the banks and all the other folks in the support industries, dry cleaners, coffee shops sandwich shops bars, security, cleaners etc. What about the ordinary folk who had savings in the banks. In the 1908's a mortgage company went bust, hooray people thought until they found their mortgage still had to be paid. The new lenders refused to drop mortgage rates long after everyone else had. In short the little people would have suffered.

Letting the banks go to the wall might seem justice but the economy would have gone into meltdown and even a Labour government realised that.

Back to the OP I have a question I have not seen answered, feel free to inform me. The debate about immigration revolves around numbers and not about type. Is there any socioeconomic data about who comes and goes. If for example the majority of emigrants are well educated well skilled but they are replaced by folks who are not as educated or as skilled that must have an impact on the economy? What is the mix of men and women children, no children etc. Is it like for like or are there in balances between the in and the out?

One more point

That has got to be the stupidest logic dealt out by the left of thinking.

How can a lack of housing be a problem but increased population not add to that problem?
All the time more people come here, we have to keep building more houses.

Duh!
