Does anyone like us here? We've been led to hate the place and each other, and yes we're very selfless in battle for the elite.

It already is a playground for the rich. They can buy a nice place in the country for weekend knees ups and live in a plush, security controlled gated community during the week, go to the best restaurants, theatre, etc chauffer driven and don't ever have to mix with the riff raff (you and me!) and make even more money out of peoples hardship.
The harder we work the more we fill their bank accounts, bump up their shares, investments etc.
So much for Labours promise for cutting the divide between rich and poor. Rubbish! They haven't cut the tax loop holes so the rich pay less tax than the cleaner cleaning their palatial homes!
AAAARRRRRRGGGHH!

You obviously haven't been reading about all the probklems we have here with immigration and an ever increasing amount of people zapping the government of benefit money. We have become the opposite, the hand out state, foreigners see this as the land of oppertunity where thjey can get entry and free benefits.

Contrary to the propaganda, the bulk of immigrants DO NOT parasitically feed off the welfare state in the UK - the indigenous population does enough of that.
However the current wave of immigration has spawned a cultural sea change so rapid, that despite the skilled and hard working nature of such an influx of mainly Eastern European people, many areas are being left in a state of flux. We are experiencing social revolution rather than evolution, to the extent that many of us who grew up in particular areas now feel like strangers in our own towns. That is not a nice feeling. Call that xenophobic if you like, but that's how it is.
So in the main immigrants aren't parasites, simply hard working people looking to better themselves, which is entirely understandable. That said, I can sympathise with people feeling overwhelmed by the pace of social change. It's not nice feeling like a foreigner in the place of your birth.

Definitely we have become the drip feed of Europe. I know some exiled Russians have helped to boost our number of Tycoons but money is being syphoned to other nations? Can we plug the leak...I'm not sure?

no I doubt it - it may (already is) a place for the rich to get richer and then spend their money somewhere else (warmer).
