Why do english people hate immigrants....when they are immigrants themselves?

Question

do they forget that they are anglo-saxon....not british

Answer 1

Pewople have been moving around this planet ever since we have been here. It is likely that few of us can claim to be thoroughbred in any way. Again, we have the sweeping generalisation. I am English and don't have a problem with immigrants. And by the way, Anmglo Saxon's were not our only invaders. What about Roman, Viking, Norman - they are all part of our make-up.

Answer 2

Well my family tree has been traced back many generations and up to then I'm British through and through.
I don't hate immigrants in general; in fact I'm full of admiration for those who have come to this country and made a good life for themselves by WORKING hard.
I object to those who have come here - often illegally - because they're under the misapprehension that they'll find the life they dream of without getting their hands dirty.
I object to my hard earned money (taxes) being used to provide free housing/healthcare/benefits to these scroungers.
I object to councils having to reserve a certain number of properties for them.
Basically, if you're going to another country you should have the means to support yourself and to get a job. If not, stay where you are. I know all the do-gooders will reply by saying "ah, but these poor people have nothing"; yes, I know many of them are poverty stricken. But a lot more are just "not well off" - they had a house and food in Romania, or wherever they're from, and their decision to come to the UK is solely driven by the stories they've heard - that they'll automatically have a far better standard of living here.
And it's true, they are getting that - out of my taxes!
Sorry, but I don't think that's right.

Answer 7

Because they are idiots who do not know where they are from. Funniest of all is they hate the french and a lot of them come from France and don't even know that the English language is full of french words. lol! losers!

Answer 8

Because this is our little corner of the world, our ancestors fought and died for it, and we want to keep it for our selves, just as you want to keep your country for your kith and kin.

Thousands of us died for this in WW2, and we were called patriots. But now we see alien immigrants races flooding in year after year and are called racists when we object. Our fathers died for nothing.

Answer 9

I dont care i hate freeloaders this is Britain and i am sick of paying taxes to home, feed and clothe morons that come here - THEN the governement treats them better than us and gives them more rights - its ludicris. They should stay in their own country or come here and work for a f*****g living.
