If you opened your pay packet this month and it had a form to tick and send back which said you would get an extra £30 say every pay if we just got rid of all these immigrants

Would you tick it??????????

So you think we'd save money?

To sort this out properly will cost money. By "sorting out properly", I don't mean just shipping everyone off immediately but actually putting in a system for asylum and immigration that works.

Our country is, like it or not, better for its cultural diversity. How did this come about? Immigration.

We need a system that treats genuine asylum (fleeing from persecution) separately from immigration (for economic or other reasons). At the moment, neither the asylum or immigration systems are working.

It will cost money to sort these out.

Would I pay? Yes. But the answer isn't to just close the doors, put up barriers, detain asylum seekers and say "no" to immigration - it's rather more complex than that, and I don't claim to know the answer. Someone will do, and someone will want paying for working it out.

Cheers,
Nick.

If I ticked it I'd be sending my ancestors back, so, no.

ok, tories (when in power) gave approx 3000 visas a year to immigrants. The labour government gave out 170,000 last year alone.

I think we need to look at the government, and erm turf em out,

p.s i didnt vote for them......
so dont try and blame the problems on me.
