Stop Immigration - shut off the borders!?

Isn't it time the UK shut its borders to immigration ? (I am not 'white', so this is not against anyone) but I tell you one thing, you cant even walk down the streets without bumping into someone, its soo crowded out there. On top of that there are no jobs for British Citizens. Employers give all the jobs to the immigrants because they will work on low pay. Those immigrants dont know whats right and wrong, get them out of this country, now! all the immigrants take all the decent jobs with decent pay on low pay and the employers are all laughing because the can hire people on peanuts.

A lot of them have dont know proper living standards in the UK, spitting on pavements is a major problem in East London and we could have another TB epidemic coming our way in this condition. Its soo overcrowed its already feeling like one those third world countries. Soon there will be no food because of this foolishness.

This is a bloody tiny island, we dont want it swamped, have some common sense!

Update:

@Hypocrite - 6675636b - 6974 I want to know why the governments dont shut off the gates and put a pad lock on it and bring an end to this...this immigration is like an epidemic

Update 2:

@Atheist: if only 1 or 2 people email the government they wouldnt even look at it. Lets all get together and somthing about it ? if we all do somthing together then they will at least even consider it.

Update 3:

@Zak's Femme Fatale: Please understand, this is about commonsense so please dont take it personally. What we are trying to acheive is not let the UK become another, India, Lagos, Nigeria or China. Eventually we would run out of not just jobs but food. People would be fighting over where to stand in a public place, there will be no food, money, jobs left, even now there is a massive shortage of staff and hospital beds due to a massive surge in population because of immigration. One day people would be eating people and the whole planet earth would be dead.

we dont have free welfare and healthcare, its all tax payers money.

We work and our fees for health and welfare get taken out of our salaries before we even see the gross pay in cash.

Your russian frend Olga saved up four thousand pounds - that is nothing. In this country its peanuts because the government takes it all away in taxes so they can make roads and bridges, and go on to bomb other countries with tax payers money.

Update 4:

STRAWBERRY PICKING in Cambridgeshire that would be outside of her living costs and food provisions but no one sed to come to the UK to do hard labour and live a low life. Why do people think UK is some 'heaven' or somthing coz its not and you only find out in reality.

Olga had £4,000 she did not have to take the bus. Here we pay taxes and living is a struggle but if we had £4,000 we would not use it to bus-it to another country.

I dont want to go fruit picking and do the hard labour and live the low life. We struggle enough on finances because of there is too many people here in this country. It is an ambitous acheivement Olga has made but all the other people that are not like Olga has flooded the UK and get hired for top jobs on peanuts, for this reason there are no jobs or food for us. These days food prices are sky high when there are no jobs.

This is not moaning this is reality. Maybe you're in a quiet town, come and see what its like here we cant even walk in the

Update 5:

street coz of pests! People dont even know how to walk let alone the streets are crowded.

When you goto the shops food is being snatched from your hands when you put your hands on it first. I've have seen people desperate for food. Olga may not have used the benefits system but thats what all the others come in this country to do and they will dry up the system.

    The time has long since passed for such action.

    But the best case now is to secure the borders to prevent any further influx of unwanted intruders and round up the ones currently here. Toss all the illegals back whence they came, and do the same for the legal ones how have no source of income except sucking up public assistance.

    Once we get fid of them it is time to toughen the standards for immigration.

    Not everybody should be allowed to waltz into anywhere without means of financial support or a job in a skilled profession. We do not need any more waiters, dishwashers or other jobs that need no special skills. We have enough people to fill those positions. Until we get tough on the whole immigration the country will continue to go down the drain.

    Yes, the borders should be shut and I don't care whether potential immigrants are black, white, yellow or pink with blue spots, the UK is full. However, the major fly in the ointment is that no UK government can close its borders to people from the EU. So if five million EU residents decided to come her on Monday there is nothing, apart from logistics, that would stop them. Remember this when Cameron says he's taking action on immigration. Google '10 Downing Street' and send him an e-mail, just keep it polite! The UK needs to leave the EU and regain control of its own borders, it would also be nice to get our fishing grounds back and rebuild our fishing industry as well.

    After reading the claptrap from Zak's deluded girlfriend,I find it reinforces my opinion of the madness of multiculturalism and the dangers of diversity,why can all these people heading towards these islands not stay in their own lands and work to make them successful,I will tell you,they are too fecking lazy and want to sponge of others and make this country a **** hole like their own,realist not racist.

    Quite right - BUT - it won't be allowed to happen as long as our politicians continue their obsession with this 'defunct/bankrupt/failed/corrupt communistic EU regime' - they having 'already signed away' our UK rights/interests/cultures when signing that Lisbon Treaty - which confirmed we (UK) are just another satellite state within this EU system.

    All your points are valid - and many people will agree with them - but its all to late - what we have now is/will be the norm for our lifetimes - the end result being the UK having absolutely no identity at all - we (UK) being just a mass immigration 'dumping point' - as indeed it has become already - funded entirely by the working taxpayers of our country.

    The 'only survival action' would be too 'dump' the EU and all it stands for - and 'tear-up' all these documents that have tied-a-noose-around-the-UK's-neck since 1974 - but unless the peoples agree for a peoples government rebellion (which they won't) we're all stuck with the EU....whether we like it or not.!!

    The 'billions' wasted in being a 'forced' member' by our own governments (past and present) has cost the taxpayers dear - with no contribution end in sight - the EU already demanding the UK contributes 'more' than it is now - we (UK) are seen by Brussels as a 'cash cow'....nothing more.

    ....feeling like a 3rd world country is correct - the completion of that is only a few years away - and our own political morons will have to admit (in the end) it was all ...'a complete waste of time' - and at 'great cost' too our country.

    When we elect (as we have) self-serving political 'fools and imbeciles' thats what we get - the 'loss of a once great country' - of course the 'couldn't-careless-brigade' (millions) wouldn't agree - they seeing nothing wrong with the ways things are now and in the future.!!

    I for one can....'feel your pain' - but seemingly/sadly 'we' are in the minority.

    Under those idiots Blair and Brown the immigration floodgates were opened. Over three million arrived from Third World countries, not including countless thousands of illegals.

    Result was great for big business bosses, cut wages to Brits who pay their mortgages or sky-high rents, or who then froze workers pay rates, net result 2.7m on the dole today, millions more on other related benifits and Blair a multi,multi-millionaire.

    Labour has sold out its voting base and I am switching to the BNP. At least they tell it as it is.

    I am not sure if you could resort to anything as rash as stopping immigration completely, but I think that it should be limited. I don't think that the amount of people entering the country should exceed the amount leaving. I also think that people entering the country should be able to enter on merit of what they can bring to the economy. Also, the biggest problem we have right now is illegal immigration.

    This should have been done fifty years ago, when most of it all began.

    Successive governments have ignored the problem - till it has become impossible to solve.

    No, it's already swamped. The borders should have been shut in 1948.

  • What do you want to know? Surely you've seen this stuff posted in CE often enough by now?
