The irony of all this was that it was the UK government pushing for EU expansion to eastern Europe!


Do you have the proof of that?

Great advantage for people from the poor regions of the EU, Romania etc, to come to UK to work and claim UK in work benefits and child allowance for their children even though they do not live in the UK and have much lower living costs. They then send the money back home so it does not get spent in the UK.

Child benefit should only be paid to children in the UK. The money saved could be spent to help child poverty in the UK.


Well if they're working, they're paying National Insurance and Income Tax, which is used to pay for services that benefit us all, so they are generating money used in this country.

If they don't have a job, they won't get any benefits for 3 months and then have to satisfy fairly complicated criteria after that.

I would be interested to know how much the Government pays out in Child Benefit to people from EEA countries whose kids still live in their home country. Something tells me it won't cover that £350m the NHS was promised.

You know, Hobbes, some days even my lucky rocket ship underpants don't help.

You know and we all know the £350M has nothing to do with what Immigrants generate here.
Plus there are 2 things wrong with your argument
1. they do not "have" to pay taxes and National Insurance if they work, especially illegals.
2. They send far more cash out of the country than they contribute even if they do pay them. The cash they earn here makes their families quite rich "back home". As was shown on TV programmes about Polish and Romanian workers.

1. They wouldn’t be getting child benefit if they were working illegally.

2. If you’ve earned your money you should be free to choose how you spend it.

Yes, and no doubt a comedy sketch is your only experience of it. It’s easy to say freedom of movement is great when it’s never had a negative impact on your livelihood. A large number of the 17.4m people have felt it though but they are just racist and stupid.


These are the stats of working people in the UK, correct in May 2018.

There were 28.73 million UK nationals working in the UK, 417,000 more than for a year earlier. There were 2.29 million EU nationals working in the UK, 28,000 fewer than for a year earlier.

No doubt people who voted leave have felt an impact on their livelihood with the number of immigrants from the EU. I question how many. We need a large number of the immigrants to fill essential worker roles, including the NHS. Many UK residents have benefitted from these roles. It is a fact that we needed these workers due to shortages. The NHS has had to employ workers from much further afield.

Immigration can be good and it can affect some of the population in other roles. It does work both ways. Obviously, none of us want to be affected in our work because an influx of cheaper labour ends our livelihood. In my own industry, many jobs have been lost because companies outsource roles overseas, in India, Pakistan, the Phillipines and beyond. That is just business ( as it is so delicately phrased). There is no no brexit from that. At least the people who come here will be putting something back in to our economy. There is the elephant in the room immigration where money is sent back to help their families and that has got nothing to do with this continent.

I honestly do not know what the answer is but I do believe that we will see our GDP negatively hit with the current brexit deal if voted through and that will affect far more people's livelihoods.

Immigration is definitely positive and will always be here and always have been here. People are always welcome as far as I’m concerned but it should be easier to chuck those who misbehave on the next plane out of here without them hiding behind human rights laws.

The creatures outside looked from pig to man, and from man to pig, and from pig to man again; but already it was impossible to say which was which.

Agree about immigration allowing people the country needs in, but not those it does not need or want.

Illegals working "cash in hand" do not show up in those stats do they?
The government doesn't even know where they are let alone track what they earn.
Do you ever watch day time TV, where they show councils checking for illegally overcrowded houses, they are continually finding illegals living 10-12 to a 3 bed house.

I understand what you are saying. Working "cash in hand" isn't exactly a new phenomenon. How many local labourers etc; were getting paid cash in hand while getting full benefits. No, I don't watch day time telly so I will take your word for that. Are they illegals?

You live in the London bubble, you haven’t got a clue. You’ve probably never worked on a site where lads have been paid off and cheaper labour has been brought in from Portugal or Poland to finish off jobs. Thousands of highly skilled British workers looking for work while foreign contractors undercut them.

These hand wash car washes that are springing up everywhere seem to be dodgy as hell. The one by me is always filled with around 25 people working all day who can’t speak a word of English. They only take cash, you can’t pay with card.

Buy a jet wash. That is one measure to reduce trafficking. There was an article in the Welsh paper highlighting "local" businesses with illegals. Funnily enough they were from Iran, Bangladesh and India. The car wash places near us are filled with non EU people.

If we all bought jet washes then the hand car wash industry would be decimated overnight and these poor dabs would be out of a job.

Yes because people who have an issue with freedom of movement within the EU have an issue with non-white people. The Polish, Romanians, Bulgarians, Spanish, Greek, Portuguese etc.... all black.

The moment you throw the race card at the issue you prove you know absolutely nothing about the reasons. Just an ignorant bloke.
