And if you would like to crunch data on migration from beyond the EU, we can indeed do that. It costs tens of billions in welfare, prison support, healthcare, and so on to fund it, so those people might be seeking a better life, but on the whole the numbers show that all it is doing is costing the British tax payer a lot of money. Is that money you have? Perhaps the welfare state needs to be revised and those willing to pay for migrants who cannot pay their way can volunteer their money? That way the lefties who want to help everyone can pay for it themselves. Make it into more of a charity than a forced cultural experiment that also robs everyone else of their resources. You want the cake and to eat it all. How about you make your own cake? So if you want to bring me up, how much do you think I have taken and how much do you think I have put in? I am always able to pay my way and of course am insured privately as well as contributing every month nationally. My friend is here on his 11th yearly visa and one mistake and home he has to go. The UK should really have had a similar system considering the 'diversity' of cultures coming in. It would save the prison system a fortune. There are grooming gang members that the government is just unable to send back to Pakistan. Do you know how much it costs to keep someone in prison? I think you should pay for that as it is you willing to accept the bad apples for every well picked tree, but your orchards frankly go on forever. So it is frankly a ludicrous position to hold.
