According to the Optimum Population Trust, Britain's rising birth rate, currently growing at the highest rate for nearly 30 years, should be considered an environmental liability. It goes on to recommend limiting children to two per family - although how this would work in practice is far from clear.I have a better idea - deport all who are here illegally and close the doors to any new immigration which is not of direct and provable value to the UK; such individuals should have a confirmable job awaiting them. New immigrants who commit serious crime must be deported. Even Blunkett said 'asylum seekers' were 90% bogus. We must filter these properly and nobody be granted refugee status if: A] They have not gone to a neighbouring safe haven as dictated by the UN and B] If they have left a democratic nation.
Nobody must be blamed for trying to better themselves.
Those immigrants who came here on a temporary basis must be made to stick to agreements.
Harsh and uncharitable you say? - England is the 8th most crowded place on the planet. We have a massive housing shortage. Our infrastructure is creaking. We are perceived as a softer touch than all other EU nations where benefits are concerned.
We already have unemployed and cannot afford an influx of unskilled labour. If they come and stay, what happens to those of our own who are avoiding work or gaining the necessary skills? Are they to be unemployed for life?
