OBR say we need more immigration

I am all for immigration PROVIDING they can help us. What do we do. Stop fully qualified Doctors / Nurses entering the country?. Also on the flip side stop Brits going to Canada /Aus etc. It just needs to be managed better

How many of those immigrants actually started from scratch and made their money in the UK ?

The word immigrant was in quotation marks.

I dont think there would be figures to tell us how many millionaires are immigrants.

I think the reason why the US is such an entrepeneurial country is because of the waves of immigration they have had over the years. The same could be said of the UK.
 
The UK has to start spitting out more kids or we are fucked.

I think the figures say that anything below 2 kids per family gives a negative impact on population growth.

Interesting point,one could say that similarly there is not a true 'British' person in this country as we all originate from migrants.
 
who wrote this the bloody fairies at the bottom of my garden we haven't got work for the number of people here now we can only provide 60% of our own food which with the current expansion of this countries population will only drop and strangely enough old people tend to die off and balance the population out over time if you replace them ten fold guess what happens 50 years down the line er lets think its not rocket science short term fixes lead to long term problems.
