Is mass immigration the direct cause for the rise in popularity of far-right groups?

YES!
I think the clue is in their name AOG.
I have warned about the rise of the right in Europe on AB before. The political parties that are nazi-inspired are just using the convenient issue of immigration, to spout their normal racist theories. Its even worse in other countries.

But there is some good news though...at last the French "Front National" have finally kicked out the truly odious Jean-Marie Le Pen from its ranks, over his stupid and offensive remarks ie, "The Nazi gas chambers were a detail of history".
Hang on, hang on.....

It's only the results of an opinion poll! And we all know how accurate they are!!!
Undoubtedly.

// ...the party has garnered increasing support and won 12.9 per cent of the vote in last September’s general election. //

Which is about the same as UKIP got in May. Or one eighth of the (voting) population.

Oh so showing concern for the problems of mass immigration, automatically carries the Nazi-Inspired badge in your far-left mind does it mikey?

Well that is strange, because even your Labour party have admitted that they made a mistake over immigration and have also announced that it is not racist to show concern.

According to this Express poll 100% showed concern about immigration.

You are both struggling, and you can't even blame it on the right-wing press.
Struggling to what?

/// As I said....we all know about the accuracy of opinion polls. ///

Granted but 100% of readers, (even though the Express can be described as Right-Wing) is pretty damming, but obviously the result would be entirely different if the Guardian had produced a poll.
The Poll does suggest they have become the most popular but the percentages are very close between the front three.

Sweden's asylum policy does appear to be causing concern. No problem for the administrators in Bratislava!
Erm......exactly.

You've just proved why opinion polls (especially those in politically biased newspapers) are cobblers.

I think your equating my mistrust of opinion polls with a lack of concern about immigration which isn't the case. I'm as concerned as the next man (or woman) but I prefer not to attempt to whip people up into a frenzy by the use of flawed / completely misleading research.
That ^^^^ was to AOG.
Perhaps we should put all this into proportion. The Poll said that 25.5% of people supported Sweden Democrats, which is another way of saying that 74.5% didn't !

And while I am at it, can I deal with issue of opinion Polls once and for all.

The Polls were mosting 100% correct leading up to the May Election. They got the rise of the SNP, the demise of the LibDems, and the complete collapse of UKIP bang on the nail. To listen to some people you would think that that the Tories won a landslide, instead of winning with a slender majority of just 10.
'The Polls were mosting 100% correct leading up to the May Election. '

Ha ha ha haaaa haaaaaaaa HA HA HAAAAaAA. Cough splutter. Chortle.
AOG

What am I struggling with?
mosting 100% correct


Brilliant!

It is time those who have the power to do something about this problem were whipped into a frenzy.

One doesn't need flawed or even completely misleading research to know that there is very big problem, and unless something is done about it now, this country along with it's long fought for NHS, it's education facilities and it's housing stock will no longer be able to accommodate those who already live here.
Come on guys...cut me some slack here ! MOSTLY.
. As this thread has now turned into a cyclical one which has been done to death. I'm out.
