Remember, also, many migrants from some of the poor European countries who come over, mainly to London, are now finding rents prohibitively high, much of their earnings are gone on high rents, higher cost of transport, since much of the development work is taking place in London, building are rocketing up, nearly every square mile there are housing and multistory apartments being build, a hell of a lot of development going on, demolishing some of the old unattractive buildings and newer ones being build, London is changing vastly, the pace is unbelievable, majority of the construction work is now (my guess +75%) is being carried out by Romanians, Polish, and a few others, without them this progress would come to a grinding halt, as our population grows, our needs will also grow, and that does mean we need to build more schools and hospitals, again a vast opportunity, the bigger the nation the bigger the need, so why cry out oh our schools are full, hospitals are packed to brink, of course that will be the case to a certain extent and then as our needs and demands grow, so will our schools and hospitals and economy grow.
Let me give you a hypothetical example:
let us say a Chocolate company manufactures 1 million bars of chocolate a year, it finds that suddenly it cannot cope with demand, what do they do, do they ask people to stop making babies because they can't meet demand, or do they say excellent, we have greater opportunity to expand, so not only do that company now opens another factory, and employs more people and starts producing even more chocolate and their turnover goes up, our unemployment drops, the company may even offer more variety of their products, if anyone thinks that our population should not grow are badly mistaken, population of earth is keep on going up, with it demand for goods and services will also grow, so that means expansion, more goods will need to be produced to cater for extra people, more everything of course, more resources, so it is for us to plan ahead and cater for this, we may have failed to see this, so now e are finding shortage of school places, hospitals stretched, we did not perhaps train enough doctors, so now we may have to hire more form Europe, so why not? This a natural phenomenon, that cannot be stopped for ever, you may delay it, but changes are inevitable, its no point saying we spend £340 millione each week and get back little, that is a load of tosh. We get so much more back in unseen areas. we have benefited from European migrants to a very great extent, of course there will be some who will also exploit our benefit system.
I will give you another real example of a Romanian guy who till now has not claimed a single penny, and has paid taxes, he had an accident when his ladder slipped, he fell from a height of 8 feet and broke a couple of ribs, he went to A&E and Xrays revealed he has broke a couple of ribs, a week stay in hospital, he was back on his feet climbing ladders and doing his work, someone else would have taken months off work and claimed health benefit, I actually told this guy that he could claim from the system but he said no i have a pride.
Most Local councils now have a strict overcrowding policy, where landlords cannot allow more people to live, so selective licensing was introduced, Newham being one of the first and this has effectively driven off those greedy bunch of landlords who were housing 4 to 5 migrants per room and earning anything like 2k PER WEEK FROM the plight of migrants, that exploitation has stopped and many migrants have found that since they can't find cheaper accommodation, their jobs won't leave them enough money to buy food after they have paid rents, and utility bills, car insurances, travel expenses, they simply go back, only those remain who have skills, and can earn decent wage to pat rents and cater for their families.
Another fact, Romania joined EU in 2007, but many Romanians had already come to Britain well before that, so did that stop them arriving on our shores before they became a full member? many I met told me they came over hidden in trucks! some even bought fake Italian passports and came over through ports as Italians!
we only need a good border control at our port like we have at airports, that all, to catch pests (terrorist) arriving hidden in lorries, and other migrants who are going to exploit our hospitality and mug people on streets, they should be promptly put behind bars and after serving sent back never to set foot on our soil again.
These polls should never have happened, but if majority decides to leave now then tough, I will have to go with the majority, but when Europeans heard how our population was getting tired of the Union's interference and endless regulations, we were threatening to leave, they realised that, and gave us a little more flexibility, so we had a weapon in our hand, now if we decide to stay, that weapon is lost, if we leave we don't need a weapon, *(weapon to bargain and seek special terms)
