Immigration

Yet again politicians are arguing over immigration.

Three facts they all ignore :-

1. We actually have net emigration according to the census, as migrants return home when they finish working, others retire to the sun and some born here leave for a new life.

2. Economic factors are actually working to drop the numbers arriving.

3. Immigrants generally contribute a lot of tax and are often the most successful.

Everyone should read Robert Winder’s excellent book, ‘Bloody Foreigners’.
