Hi Omeg - those are your views so fair enough but not mine. Sadly most illegals come here for the honey and because we are a soft touch. Why for instance do they not go to Poland which is now a fantastic country? The reason is because they are not welcome and will get nothing.

Sadly we can?t help the world. Should we help Somalia where gangs are slaying innocents and girls are gang raped at 12? You know what happened in Afghanistan and it?s reverted back to the way it was with women no better than dog
s hit on a shoe. Very sad but that?s the way it is.

So for me unless immigration is through legal routes then everybody should be deported. We need to look after our own otherwise the country will end up bankrupt and unrecognisable. Do those escaping Gaza and Iran receive sanctuary in the very rich Middle East neighbours? No - they won?t have them. Why should we!

Nothing should change either to accommodate these people. When I lived in Spain I followed Spanish culture andcwas fluent within a year.

Can Westerners make demands in Dubai with religious buildings - kiss in public - wear revealing clothes - drink alcohol in the streets? No - you follow the local norm and rules or you are locked up. Don?t like it then do not go!

Most immigrants who have taken the legal route with successful jobs agree with the above too! The ones that do not are the white lefties who yes would welcome the world like the idiot Polanski whose own family have disowned him.

Priority every time for our own people!

Hi Al. Don't disagree with your first or last points.

Increasing our population through net migration of around 400,000 a year is absolutely ridiculous and completely unsustainable so both legal and illegal immigration needs urgently curbing.

At the moment we need foreign workers to fulfil certain jobs in better paid sectors because we lack the necessary numbers of our own with the relevant qualifications while other foreign workers fulfil jobs in lower paid sectors that many Brits don't want to do. This situation clearly cannot continue. Surely we can attract our own young people into the higher paid sectors to ultimately negate the need for importing so much of the expertise we currently need from abroad? And surely a better carrot/ stick benefits system could get more people into work even if it is into these poorer paid sectors? The factors influencing both are doubtless quite nuanced but these surely have to be two key objectives for the future.

Given the current issues the country faces, I believe that all economic migrants should be turned back and only genuine cases, where there is a clear threat to their lives, should be considered for asylum. Illegal immigrants will be made up of both of course and I didn't mean in my last post that we should accept those coming here for primarily economic reasons because we simply cannot afford do so.

And, yes, the priority has to be helping our own, especially at a time of increasing inequality and economic hardship and when the growing Gig economy, and advances in technology already threaten opportunities.
