We need to recognise that refugee crises have to be dealt with locally because we cannot allow the inevitable endless and increasing stream of people into this country. That would threaten our own future as population increases. There will be casualties and it will be hard to accept, but that is the inevitable future of this planet. Immigration must be eased back to reduce the social time bomb that is already ticking. Too many immigrants lead to overcrowding and struggling infastructure that equals lower quality of life and increased friction and stress. The schisms in society that have begun to form around religion and ethnicity have to be given time to improve before we allow hundreds of thousand more to follow. The numbers must be calculated to allow a neutral birth rate that sustains the population but does not increase it significantly. The alternative is a disaster just around the corner.

When I was a young lad in the 1950s I recall our population was around 50 million. It is now somewhere in the region of 65 million. Such growth in numbers is resulting in an ever growing need for more space and in particular housing. Towns and cities keep on expanding with more congestion , more traffic, more pollution and a decline in the quality of life for many people. There is increasing pressure to find land to build housing on and green spaces that were previously protected are in danger of being opened up for development, with the resulting threat to wildlife, and a reduction in open spaces for people to enjoy. I just don't think we can go on shoehorning more and more people into the country without it having a seriously adverse effect on our surroundings and resources. You have the divisive political party to blame, luckily they don't get voted in that often, but the damage they cause effects future generations. Once you throw the door open its very hard to close it.

To quote from the Bank of England study 2015.

Edited by Stirlingsays (08 Sep 2017 7.54pm) According to someone on the wireless earlier, the bank of England one was the only one to say that it had a detrimental effect, but only in the sectors you mentioned. Can you find anything about other sectors in the BoE report? Companies corporations and neoliberal governments are the ones responsible for s*** pay. Immigration is a dead cat arguments. The dog whistle racism that's emerged over the last few years in the media is merely deflecting from the fact you and I are being fecked over by Lord Rothermore et al's mates.

I heard the funny story about the Polish tradesmen complaining they were going to be undercut by Romanians. Many lefties and politicians don't care. Who cares if they make the wages they've driven down work with double, triple and quadruple or more the amount of people in any dwelling. COYP**
