Just a quick note : people who enter this country are not just like you and I automatically entilled to free housing and support and if they are taking all the jobs then maybe the people going after the job just werent good enough thats why they got it as apposed to you .

My wife is a Russian immigrant who came to the UK to escape her own country. I asked her why did she pick the UK, and the reason she gave is because the UK is a soft touch, has a 6 month visa for immigrants and can easily be fooled into believing any story - and even if they don't they do not have a reputation for immediate returns but go through a complex legal process which you can simple appeal against. She was offered benefits, free heath care and free legal aid. The lawyer who represented her (on legal aid) was a Somali who advised her all the tricks to remain in the country and how to claim benefits whilst working and get away with it. She is basically an honest person who admits to fleeing for the purely economic reasons of getting a better life but did draw the line at cheating the system - in fact she is an advocate for tightening immigration as she knows how it is being abused. The biggest danger she sees are not the immigrants, but the liberals who refuse to accept that there is a problem and not change the laws now. She knows it will continue to be abused and the numbers are growing fast.

From my perspective its more to do with the fact that loads of immigrants places a great strain on this country's jobs, housing, health service etc.
We are a small nation and do not have enough to go round for those already here so flooding the country with East European immigrants just makes things much worse. You obviously are lucky enough to know nothing about the poverty, unemployment, homelessness and misery faced by many decent British people.

I don't have a problem with LEGAL immigrants, its the illegal ones that thumb their noses at our laws that irritate me. If we were to go to whatever country they are from and demanded the rights they are demanding here, we would be jailed or worse. I am the granddaughter of LEGAL immigrants and get the concept of wanting a better life. People just need to do it the right way.

Gee whiz! You really have a chip on your shoulder!
Not an essay, but I am not (as an American) against those here legally, but am against those who ignored our immigration quotas by the millions figuring we should pay for their children's education, anyhow. The funds are taken from our children's education budgets, and are disproportionately spent on those who can't speak English. That ruins the schools for our own children, and ruins our upwards mobility which is the basis for the American Dream.
With our schools ruined, no wonder we are illiterate!
Happy Holidays.

carla, do you the difference between an immigrant and an illegal immigrant. those mexicans crossing the border in the dark of the night are not like the ones that crossed through ellis island. these ppl were health screened at least and cataloged. they re breaking the law the second their feet touched us soil. i m sorry if i dont applaud that.

well , 1st off ur not american so u do not understand this
IMAGINE: the Germans come to england by the MILLIONS<, do not learn english, commit crimes at a 250% faster rate then natives do, and disrespect you and ur culture, would u like that??
and, we have a better system, everything is not free for us. YOU WORK FOR A LIVING HERE, so when you see people like illegals disrepsect us, and steal money, it makes us mad
and we do not have free housing, free food, free healthcare, etc.
we r capitalist, unlike u, in America: the harder u work, the more u get
u oughta go 2 california, texas, and new mexico, it would enlighten u

Carla please calm down. Please please let me explain. It is not the immigrants they are annoyed about being in the UK. It is about their behaviour and what the Government have done for these immigrants and neglected their own people of the UK. Look at all the hospitals being closed down, look at all the Post Offices being shut down, etc, It is because they need the extra money to give to the immigrants. There are a lot of people who have and are still are paying their Taxes in this country (UK) and to think they are not getting anything back for what they have paid and the Government are handing it out to the immigrants, it does annoy the BRITS. Also the immigrants should abide by the Laws of the UK and not by their own laws. It seems to be one law for us Brits and another for the immigrations. So do you think it is fair CARLA.
WELL said Princess. I agree 100%

Carla the UK is a hell hole full of immigrants who hate british people and their way of life. You need to pull your head up out of your butt and recognize that the kind of people that you are inviting in, are the same people who gay bash, and do not respect the freedoms of others in society. You should be ashamed of yourself, you are losing everything.

I shall take issue with your statements. Maybe you personally haven't had your house burgled by one of them. Maybe you should read your local papers and watch your local news bulletins.Then you may start to understand someone elses opinion. Have you needed to use out patients at your local hospital and found you couldn't move because of the masses of people who are not english speaking and are clogging up the desks trying to make themselves understood, this applies to banks, supermarkets, cafes, the list is endless. No, i don't own this country, but i do speak the language of this country, i abide by the laws of this country,and i believe in free speech. Which gives me the right to oppose YOUR opinion.Because as people are beggining to doubt, we are as of this time still a democracy with freedom of speech and thoughts!!
