So - immigration isn't a problem?

'Schools in just one town are having to cope with pupils who speak 150 different languages, a survey has found.
They range from the Ghanaian dialect of Akan, through the African language of Chichewa and the ancient Aztec tongue of Nahuatl to the Indian language of Telugu.
This is as well as the more common foreign languages of Urdu, Punjabi and Polish. Mixed: Schoolchildren in Reading use 150 different languages. (Posed by models)
The survey in Reading, Berkshire, shows how schools are being put under mounting pressure by the rising levels of pupils who do not speak English as their first language.'


Now tell me that the indigenous population is not being damaged by uncontrolled immigration.
Would you want your children/grandchildren to be educated in this town - or the hundreds more which are just like it?
