CLOSE THE OPEN BORDERS AND START VETING THE NEWCOMERS
FROM THE EU.
BRITIAN IS FULL UP!!!
Excess immigration is clogging up the country!
- The NHS is creaking under the burden.
- Our culture is being diluted.
- Schools are bursting. No places for new students.
- Modes of transportation are clogged.
- The Welfare System is becoming a free hand out system to people who never contribute.
- Housing shorages.
- Tens of thousands of new homes will be built on Green Field land to accommodate the ever increasing population. The countryside is diminishing!
- With open borders there is a Security risk! Who is coming in?
Criminals, Terrorists, Human Traffickers?
***
By the time Cameron and the conservatives give us a referendum in two years, another 500,000 people will be here!
The faster we close the borders the better.
The tolerance of the British people is being severely stretched!
We must vet the people coming in and once they are in they must integrate and want to integrate and not stand on the fringes of society.
HOW CAN WE CLOSE THE BORDERS AND VET THE PEOPLE COMING IN?
WE HAVE TO LEAVE THE EU!!!
AND THEN INSTALL A AUSTRALIAN POINT SYSTEM FOR VETING.
If we had the Australian Point System in place last year, a bare 27,000 people would have qualified to come into the UK, instead of the 250,000 that came in!
How does it work? You accumulate points on the answers to questions:
- Do you speak good English?
- How many years in employment do you have?
- What skills do you have?
- Education?
- Are you in good health?
- Have some kind of medical insurance.
You can’t claim benefits of any kind until you’ve been here and paid into the system for at least 3 years.
If Switzerland , who doesn’t belong to the EU, can control their borders and trade freely and profitably with Europe, so can we!!!
THE UK IS BETTER OFF OUT OF THE EU!
If the UK left:
Trade would be curtailed with the EU.
Myth- The EU would always trade with it’s biggest trading customer
Moreover, the Lisbon Treaty stipulates that the EU must make a trade agreement with a country which leaves the EU.
Britain would suffer in its relationship with the rest of the world.
Myth- Britain’s best trading relationships are NOT within the EU.
They are outside the EU- with the US and Norway, Switzerland the Commonwealth.
The largest investor in the UK is NOT an EU country, but the US!
EU membership has been a detriment to the British economy-fishing-farming- excessive red tape and restrictions on business.
If Britain left the EU, it would still have substantial power in the world.
It belongs to the G20 and the G8 and has a permanent seat on the UN Security Council. Britain lies at the heart of the 54 Commonwealth nations.
Of course Britain would have power—it’s the 4th richest nation in the world!
One of the main advantages of leaving the EU is we would have control of our borders!
WHAT ARE YOUR THOUGHTS ON THIS VITAL QUESTION?
There is NO justification to add a 250,000 population city to the UK every year!
CLOSED OR OPEN BORDERS
THE CONCLUSION:
- Because of Globalization-the movement of people is essential in today’s world, because International business depends on an international labor force and the ability for people to move around the world.
When people move across borders, goods are produced on location- when not, production is outsourced.
- THE MOVEMENT OF PEOPLE NEEDS TO BE BETTER MANAGED!
- People migrate to receive an education and training, to perform services, to find employment, to flee life-threatening situations and to provide themselves hope and opportunity.—This is a good thing!
- Much of migration today is UNREGULATED. Criminal smuggling and trafficking are increasing.
- When governments lose control of migration Xenophobia and racism flourish. Xenophobia- a dislike of or prejudice against people from other countries.
- Open borders could lead to a massive influx of people from the third world. This is a bad thing!
- The ultimate goal is NOT to prevent mobility but to BETTER MANAGE it for the benefit of all.
My thoughts?
The situation is so unbelievable screwed up here, that I’m about ready to move to Australia!

……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………..
I don’t know what to think. I agree with Marla. I like the Australian viewpoint on immigration. They say it as they see it. One size does not fit all though. I have friends who are doctors who have come here with family. They do not receive child benefit and have to pay taxes. When it comes down to it, I reckon it’s about the intention behind UKIP. If it’s about common sense, economy, housing, benefits, pensions etc, there is a certain logic to tougher immigration laws – no doubt about it. But be wary – there are those who use these arguments as a thin veneer for racism. It’s about doing the right thing for the right reasons.
Wow ! 1st time I’ve seen anything political from you ,Dave !Wonder where your vote will go …..
{There was I having a laugh at Winston Wolf …lol }
Surprise!
Writer Dave can get political when he gets worked up enough
over the state of the country!
Your words can fit the U.S.. We have the same problems every elected government countries have. Is there an immigration problem in Iran, Afganistan. I won’t name all those countries even if I could spell them all. I don’t think Australia will let us all in.
I had to comment on this one, right? 🙂
You put one side of an argument and then draw a conclusion. That hardly seems balanced.
There may be merits to restricting and controlling immigration, but they are not described here. The issues listed above are just nonsense.
A few picks…
The problems with the NHS caused by immigration? Really? That argument is on such shaky ground. There are many reasons for problems with the NHS, the negative impact of immigration is likely inconsequential.
Culture is being diluted? This is such a blanket statement. *Some* places this might happen. London is built on diversity and many of us like it that way. Other places have changed significantly over time anyway and current immigration is a continuation of that. Some of us like diversity.
We do not have open borders to the 3rd world. The EU is not the third world. It is very hard to meaningfully debate something when so many things are described as fact which are anything but!
By all means, let’s talk about immigration, but let’s do it based on evidence not propaganda.
My blog on closed or open borders consisted of notes taken from my Discussion Group. All 15 members agreed with the blog.
Granted the group is made up of Oldies (60-85).
There is a difference in thinking between Oldies and Youngies!
That is interesting to note.
I’m surprised that even though the group felt the same way, there seems to be no consideration of alternative points of view.
In the conclusion there were some good points mentioned.
Unregulated immigration directly and indirectly affects every institution in the UK.
It’s effects are felt in every corner of the country.
Solutions have to be found.
The debate goes on…
Free movement of people is being ABUSED, it needs vetting.
Unregulated immigration is putting a great burden on schools, housing, The NHS, welfare, in fact all the UK institutions!
Wow I am learning something very interesting here. You do have a political
view and I never even thought about how almost every country has the same
problems. I do agree the age of the group makes a difference.
