So my bet says we get:
- Someone saying they are all here for the benefits
- Someone saying they aren't
- Alcazar berating Martin for something
- F1_fan insulting at least 3 people
- DPB trying to start an argument
- Warren saying this would never happen under UKIP
- The usual scoobynet levels of racism
- Another thread ruined/pointlessly derailed

If you dig a little deeper (beyond the headlines), you'll see that the big problem is not the size of our population, it's the age of our population!

Or your buddies Bliar and Brown hadn't opened the doors to Eastern European kids to come and do the jobs our kids did? Leaving ours needing benefits?
You couldn't make this **** up........

Wrong again! Most will be aware of the phenomenon that is the demographic timebomb, and it is a problem. But it's not the big problem. Anyway, good Alcazar has already quite rightly put you straight about this (see above).
The big problem is indeed the size of the population, which has grown rapidly over the last 15 or so years. Regardless of age, every member of the population needs housing, healthcare, the use of roads and other travel, etc. - not just the elderly. So your argument is flawed.

Alcazar's rant is not an answer, it's just an illogical moan as always.

Which WOULDN'T be such a problem if your mate Brown hadn't nicked all the pension pots, would it?

That's pretty daft really, because if we kicked out all the young immigrant workers it would be today's problem not a future one.

the only people who gain from young immigrant workers, are company owners and shareholders in said companies, and it gets better if camertwat gets his way they(the immigrant) won't even pay tax to be here either as the min wage won't be taxed, so the joe average working **** foots the bill once again, oh and the uk average age is 40, we wouldn't have a problem with this if gordon hadn't nicked our pension's
