denlin Posted March 13, 2011 Share Posted March 13, 2011 no one is forced to buy imported goods, there is nothing stopping anyone buying british made goods. There is - there aren't any:roll: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teenyweeny Posted March 13, 2011 Author Share Posted March 13, 2011 immigration is probably just the tip of the iceberg many other factors contribute to this as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JFKvsNixon Posted March 13, 2011 Share Posted March 13, 2011 reason is some have not paid into the system.so resources are stretched ..there is more money going out than coming in.it is a fools economy. Lots are paying into the system though, just like the indigenous population. Lets be honest though, the countries financial problems have nothing to do with immigration.

Lets be honest though, the countries financial problems have nothing to do with immigration. it probably isnt the main factor no.but it does add to it..something has to give,we as a nation cannot go on paying more out then coming in.we need to get back on our feet to get britain great again.sadly i do not think this will happen in my lifetime.

Michael_W Posted March 13, 2011 Share Posted March 13, 2011 The welfare state made GB too appealing to immigrants, I don't blame immigrants for coming here, I blame the system that has allowed too many in. We have many elderly people in this country getting very little off the state despite what they contributed, while some immigrants have been afforded benefits having never contributed to the system !

There are plenty of British people who are claiming and have never contributed to the system either. No one should be able to do that, it can't just be limited to immigrants. Many people come here and work hard to earn an honest living. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know all that we have been over that a million times on here, but the welfare state has made GB appealing to many immigrants, right or wrong ?
