" We do not have vote in a bunch of racist, egotistical misogynists to achieve sensible immigration reform. Why mention the Labour party on this thread?" But of a silly thing to say, being as it was labour who encouraged immigration in the first place along with a whole host of female and family friendly policies. UKIP has more members called Dave than females, let alone the male to female ratio! I wonder why?! | |||

"Well they help economy for a start, they bring new skills Cheap labour as well. Which enables the cheap prices for hotels, food and consumer products which you undoubtedly enjoy."

Yes because the immigrants work harder for less money, and in my experience in the hospitality industry, don't phone in sick as much. He was an obstetrician, not a midwife and it was thankful the hospital was adequately staffed during the night at the weekend, thanks to shifts covered by skilled immigrant doctors. | |||

Brum or Brisbane, err.. so basically what it comes down to is keep the "ones" we need to keep up "your" standard of living... and send the rest back..... remember we are talking both EU and non-EU here.... and remember there are 2 million plus UK residents that work in the rest of the EU...... so are all those coming back?" whoa Fabio, I was just giving a perspective on why some of the NHS staff have emigrated to other countries.. the 'reckless' idea is just another ill thought out reckless idea from someone standing for a party that has little clue on most things let alone immigration.. | |||

"Who picked all the fruit before eastern Europeans 10 years ago then?" funnily enough it was myself and my friends ..... i was an itinerant along with many others ..... John Major decided he didn't like us .... he called us "medieval brigands" and introduced a huge number of laws .... many of which prevented us from travelling from area to area following the seasonal farm work ...... the agricultural industry complained and lobbied the government and the then government decided to start a scheme whereby foreign students (mainly from eastern europe and africa) who had done well in their exams at the universities of their own countries, were allowed to come to the UK to pick seasonal fruit and veg .... the rates for piece work dropped to a quarter and has remained the same to this day | |||

I just wondered as your post made it sounds that indigenous people of Britain were incapable of picking fruit and that if we didn't have eastern Europeans ,all the fruit would just remain, unpicked. I'm guessing before them, it was some other poor shmuck from Ireland. And before them we had to do it ourselves. Ohhh the demeanour of having to toil in soil. | |||

" Who picked all the fruit before eastern Europeans 10 years ago then?" Working class Brits like me who've since decided we don't want a manual job, we want to go to uni and have careers. When was the last time you heard a kid saying 'when I grow up I want to work on a farm'. Now that British kid, regardless of background is saying 'I want to be a lawyer/journalist/entrepreneur' or similar and now more than ever the opportunities are there. | |||

I didn't say that as the sentence beginning 'now clearly...' states. think it would be fair to say that if all the none indigenous fruit and veg pickers left the UK now there would be an impact on that industry.. as to how long that would take and to what extent is not something I have any data on, but it will be out there.. | |||

It's got fuck all to do with somebody doing something better, and it's got nothing to do with nationalism or race and the apparent myth that we wouldn't do the job. It's just what business wants because it's easier. It's easier to nick someone else's trained staff than train your own, it's easier to bullshit some Romanian on the benefits of sleeping 40 in a shed and working 18hr days. And it's easier for governments to pull your lots pants down, while your busy swapping bollocks about which nationality can pick Strawberry's best. | |||

It is there for everyone to read and see, no argument, however, because one person says it does not make it policy. I've read enough of your posts to know that you know that!! How often do politicians of any party disagree and argue against their own parties policies? You know it is very often! You also know that the ukip resolve was stiffened by the outrageous assertions that people were making about totally fictitious ukip policies during the euro elections. Unless people start to take them seriously and argue against their real policies (available on their website) they will continue to grow in support. Even Bojo and milliband have seemingly adopted ukip policy on immigration because the bandwagon was not challenged! The Labour Party took around 28 years from getting their first MP to forming their first coalition government. I believe ukip will beat that record if people don't stop all this hysterical nonsense and actually take them on! | |||

Yes i've said it before on other threads and i'll say it again here, i'd like to see an australian style points based immigration system in this country. If you want to let everyone in and let them all settle here what are your plans to deal with the crisis in the Nhs and schools and other public services struggling under the strain of weight of numbers and demand increasing on those services? Would you increase taxes to prop up those services then, build more schools, more roads, more hospitals etc, because that is what will be needed with an open door. UKIP does'nt want to stop all immigration, some immigration will still be needed to fill gaps in the skills we need to import, if you are suggesting UKIP will stop all immigration then you are talking nonsense. | |||

"Its really funny reading this as Hilda Lesways part of Britain has been invaded and settled in by most of europe. How any white "british" person can class themselves as pure is beyond me..lol The roman wall is south of us(just)so we can call you all immigrant offspring in reality . The small mindedness regarding immigrants is usually from someone that has rarely left there own small towns You may call it small mindedness, but I disagree there are plenty of others who feel the same way as I do, all over the country." I wonder how far back you would have to trace your family tree before you realised how stupid your posts are making you look | |||

" You also know that the ukip resolve was stiffened by the outrageous assertions that people were making about totally fictitious ukip policies during the euro elections. Unless people start to take them seriously and argue against their real policies (available on their website) they will continue to grow in support. Even Bojo and milliband have seemingly adopted ukip policy on immigration because the bandwagon was not challenged! The Labour Party took around 28 years from getting their first MP to forming their first coalition government. I believe ukip will beat that record if people don't stop all this hysterical nonsense and actually take them on!" Totally agree with this. UKIP are riding this immigration argument which seems to get people going but some of their other policies are truly abhorrent. Social housing priority for those whose grandparents and parents were local?! This is a BNP policy and blatantly discriminates against the British born children of immigrants. Legalisation of handguns?! I think this more than any other policy would be the reason I'll leave if they're ever in power. Have they seen how many kids get shot in America each year?! Many accidentally. So if under a UKIP government if the immigrants don't want to leave we can threaten to shoot them until they do!? | |||

Just out of interest, where would you go if handguns were made legal?

"You couldn't make this up!! well he was a conservative named reckless before.... so maybe he is just ahead of the curve..... I thought this thread would be more about the comments he made on the hustings the other night about how all non-british citizens may need work permits or may be asked to leave the country...... but this is a start.... carry on mr reckless...... cant understand all this wanting work permits, where do these people get off. LET EVERYONE IN. LET EM ALL CLAIM BENIFITS . LET EM ALL HAVE AN HOUSE EACH. erm hold it wont work. Point system like australian works fine it seems Lets start it here We do not have vote in a bunch of racist, egotistical misogynists to achieve sensible immigration reform." | |||

The bookies are already paying out on bets that Reckless will win so i'm looking forward to more defections now. | |||

I suggest you read more if you've spent a month thinking about fascism and you think she's fascist. To be honest I'm starting to think people Bandar words around they've read in a newspaper, your a fascist, your a communist, what because they disagree with your train of thought. As technical definition of fascism it doesn't require someone to be racist, in fact most modern day corporations fit the definition better than ukip members. | |||

"Well they help economy for a start, they bring new skills Cheap labour as well. Which enables the cheap prices for hotels, food and consumer products which you undoubtedly enjoy. Well if we have to pay more we have to pay more don't we. Yes prices go up, people buy less and the economy slows. Businesses fail or downsize, job losses, even less spending...... Basic economics. " I question this. Basic, Keynesian economics shows that lower wages causes deflation. In a time where we are struggling, deflation is a bad thing. We need inflationary measures to offset the public spending cutbacks which are themselves deflationary. Historically, economies that indulge in protectionism thrive in tough economic times. America did under Clinton in the nineties, Australia has done so in the last few years, since 2008, while much of the rest of the world struggled. Deflation leads to recession. The Government has recently warned the economy here and in Europe is on the verge of further recession. Being part of a united Europe has caused many problems for many countries. It continues to do so. A single European currency has always been a fundamentally flawed idea, as, I would suggest, is the idea of a single market. Immigration may bring certain skills, but surely this is most beneficial when a points system is used, thereby ensuring that only certain people, with needed skills, to avoid skills shortages and bottlenecks, are allowed entry to Britain? We can stop entry to Britain for a chat up artist but not a convicted killer who then proceeds to murder a schoolgirl whilst here? Madness. It was suggested above that we don't need UKIP to have politicians sort of immigration. The main parties have had years to address the issue and have failed to do do. Hence many are swayed when someone like Farage comes along. I have doubts over UKIP but welcome any diversity, left or right wing and even liberal, that makes for a more interesting political spectrum. It gets people talking and thinking, which can only be good. | |||
