Sorry, but that doesn't mean it's BS, it just means there aren't any patient figures related to nationality. It still means there were 1.5 million extra patients over the last three years, and it still means that NHS is 'at breaking point'. 350,000 people plus arriving here year after year aren't going to improve that situation, but make it worse.

At this point, will you be off to an EU country that has high mass unemployment, on the verge of financial collapse?

Not another maths denier. Sit down somewhere quiet and just think about how daft that statement is. And then apply the same thoughts to Jobs, houses and transport. In Remain/lefty world, we can just keep building more houses, create more jobs. build more roads, and pump more money into the NHS to cope with the 300k plus people who come here every year. You do understand the concept of finite don't you? Or do you want Britain to look like a piece of the Death Star?

You do understand the concept of finite don't you? Or do you want Britain to look like a piece of the Death Star? Gordon Brown when questioned on the issue last night said we'll just have to shift funding and resources to the areas under the biggest strain from migrants. Works pretty well for Labour as those losing the funding will have to blame the Tories and everyone else will still blame migrants. Ironically this came as a response to the accusation that the problem was caused by Labour's own policy under Blair and Brown. Quite telling in that he inadvertently acknowledges the issue which seemingly people here are denying. Edited by johnfirewall (14 Jun 2016 11.55am)

This however isn't due to migration. Its due to two major factors. Firstly cuts in public spending and NHS funding, but more importantly the failure of successive governments to tax the increased profit generated by companies that have massively benefitted from EU migration. Its this second factor, that's most significant. Corporations have benefitted from an 'artifically' controlled wages, whilst also receiving cuts in corporation taxes etc - All the while employees effectively haven't really benefitted, due to stagnation of wage demands. All three of these factors represent a reduction in revenue in terms of taxation, which should of course been used to boost public services in light of the increased demand. They want you to blame migrants, because the reality is that they're the ones f**king us (and that included Labour and the Conservatives), and not even having the decency to use lube. But we blame the symptom, not the cause, migration. Without looking at the fact that its been used to generate profits, whilst spending has been reduced or frozen and contributions by those corporate interests have been reduced.
