    You could read a number of economic reports on the financial impact of migration on the UK economy but as always, best to read accounts from a number of sources and make your own mind up.

    Here's some:

    Another doctor or engineer. A national security emergency should be called. Then again it?s just collateral damage no big deal.

    How can anyone defend the fact that people are free to roam even tho they arrived illegally, no past history or information known then a number commit murder and other serious offences on a daily basis ??

    How many ordinary peace abiding British people are victims of horrendous crimes yet the powers that be appear totally oblivious.

    So a *** offender who got a 12 month prison sentance does but a few weeks - then gets ****ty at the airport and they give him ?500.00 via a system and government that denied pensioners the few hundred quid of a winter fuel payment

    Cant go on this 😡

    If you can't stand what's happening here it's a good job you didn't live in the US the past 30 years. I know the Trumpmeister is trying to change things but he has no chance really with their borders.

    This ain?t America we are an island.

    Trump aint perfect but he has made a difference to migration. Our lot are 100% clueless. Britain is in rapid decline - way of life, security, housing, health , crime, education the list goes on.

    Wonder what the king thinks ?? I suspect her maj - god bless her would have had a word in Starmergeddons ear hole.

    I'm convinced that in years to come, this period in UK history will be studied so that future generations can understand the paradox of people crying out for freedom and control at the same time. The internet has turned into a swamp full of people (and bots, I'd imagine) crying out for watertight controls of borders (which are larger than the USAs BTW) and migrants... and (I'm not saying many of the same, but it certainly seems a theme) people moaning about everything from excessive CCTV, cashless society big brother theories, ID cards, and so on.

    I've not seen anyone from absolutely any background offer a solution which doesn't require controls which will impact everyone in some way, don't stack up to the reality of what's happening, or lead to the country being somewhere between a pariah state and endlessly reshaping trade agreements because of an 'us first' approach to handling migrants.

    I think a comprehensive study into the impact on health care would be very useful to enable people to have a better understanding of the impact of migration on the UK. As yet there doesn’t seem to be one.

    Also, regarding benefits, I would have thought that should be quite easy for the government to be able to produce the stats.

    They don't want you to know.

    This sums this country up.

    Nearly 200,000 people on benefits could have their debts to their energy supplier cancelled, if they make some effort to pay what is owed.

    Unpaid bills and fees have soared in recent years with energy prices so high, leaving a record ?4.4bn owed to suppliers.

    Up to ?500m could be knocked off the total under plans that regulator Ofgem wants to take effect early next year.

    But that will also require the cost to be covered through an extra ?5 added to everyone's gas and electricity bill. Households on a price cap tariff already typically pay ?52 a year to deal with historic debt as part of the ?1,755 annual bill.

    If you don't earn ?50k plus and you have a few kids, don't bother working and don't bother to pay any bills. There will be no consequences. Tax payers will foot the bill.

    What the heck, get yourself a couple of overseas holidays to help you cope with all the stress.
