  1. Young people keep voting for open borders and more welfare. It all adds up to more people fighting for properties and higher taxes to service all these people.

  2. Young people are easily manipulated to vote the way the system wants them to. That's why these TV programmes appeal to them.

  3. I wonder what numbers we can point to and explain why Britain is in social decline and Poland is not...

  4.  @terryj50  And that is why the entire third world is not inclined to make a bee-line for your country, because you're not showering them with handouts and you are protecting your borders. Landlords and hoteliers in the UK are being paid by the government way over the normal rates to home these invaders. British people literally being evicted because of it. Social collapse is coming and it is the only remedy I can foresee to stem the replacement of the Brits and many other European peoples.

  5. Unfortunately the only immigrants who are going back home are the ones we want to keep here. The sad irony of it all.

  6. Funny isn't it how ever scarcer land on this small island and a ballooning population (and not because the natives are having kids - they're not) makes property more expensive.

  7. I do maintenance work for landlords and I can't say I blame them with some of the repairs I do. There's always been an up front payment for rentals, say 1 to 3 months. It may well disadvantage a small percentage of decent and respectable people, but it weeds out 100% of the pond scum as well.

  8. I'll bet good money that her landlord was offered higher rental by the government to house you-know-who.

  9. Would be very interesting to see what kind of people replaced you in that property. I can guess.

  10. What if we could put all these poor young British people up in hotels at the taxpayer's expense? That would be a nice idea wouldn't it? Surely they are empty at the moment.

  11.  @JNelson_  You do understand how nature works right? You can't squeeze a perpetually growing population onto a finite piece of land. If we don't need to worry about our national population (67 million and growing fast almost entirely due to immigration which hit 500 million net last year), which is entirely growing through immigration, then when do we need to worry that the UK is full? 100 million..? A billion..? "Line go up" is an obviously unsustainable model in any system; eventually the line hits a hard wall and since that's likely to be population vs land & resources then we're going to have much, much bigger problems than a shrinking economy. And it's not just about the numbers. Imagining that we can import millions of people of vastly diverse ethnicities without causing the kind of tribal politics and conflict we see in third world nations is extremely naive.
