Mrs May proposes to charge any intending immigrants from India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka,Bangladesh, Nigeria, or Ghana £3,00 each before any application to enter will be considered. The scheme will be extended in due course to other high risk countries. (No, that does not include Romania) [The Sunday Times]

This is part of her plan to reduce immigration. Bring me your poor, your huddled masses? Er,no! The scheme is similar to that used in Australia. A good idea? Will it work? Will it stop Tory voters going to UKIP?

/// Never mind that the NHS is collapsing around our ears, unemployment amongst young people is out of control, etc.....just keep bashing immigrants ///

Why not, is not the reason for the NHS collapsing around our ears, and unemployment out of control amongst young people, plus the shortage of housing and the overcrowded class rooms etc, etc,due mainly to the huge influx of immigrants into the UK?
jno

Although it don't make pleasant reading for some i think Baz has a point (if I read him properly) I would think that the majority of white folk in this white European country of ours would prefer it to remain a white majority country as it as always been.

This is not just about the colour of their skin but also the culture they bring with them, if the inhabitants of black African countries were to be asked would they prefer their country to remain black and the answer would certainly be yes.

bazwillrun, I asked for a link, something to back up the claim you make.
Did the British not bring their culture with them when they were creating the Empire? Was that a bad thing, anotheoldgit?
£3k is pnuts. Y not insist on english & enough capital? We dont need immigration now that we Europe to supply any needed workforce
Europe to supply any needed workforce

Don't think that stands tambo, other wise unemployment wouldn't be so high.
Baz,

You don't half come out some crap sometimes. Your conspiracy theory that Governments for 50 years have encouraged non white immigration is utter nonsense. Why would they do that? Why did immigration continue to rise during the 18 years of Thatcher/Major?

It is not that they encourage it. They have been forced to manage it. There is a demand from industry for cheap labour. Industry does not discriminate what colour the cheap labour is. In the past cheap labour came from former members of the British Empire. More recently it has come from Eastern Europe. Governments don't encourage it, industry does.
so y do we need immigrants tony
If the rest of Europe is to supply the workforce, will they not be from outwith the UK and be immigrants or do you expect them to comute from home each day?
We don't imo, tambo.
Or commute even...
Tony,

The agriculture industry employs hundres of thousands of immigrants. So they can supply cheap fruit and vegetables for you to buy. Take away the cheap workforce and prices would triple or more.
Gromit, there are also hundreds of thousands of them after our jobs in industry as well, In West Bromwich where I work it is swarming with Poles.
aog, I'm sure you are right that many white people would prefer white immigrants. But baz's claim is that there are people who don't want white immigrants and only want non-whites. I've asked him for evidence for this claim, as others also have, but so far he's just spluttered and not provided any at all.
in my industry, it's important to be able to communicate effectively, where a misunderstanding could lead to serious injury or worse. providing translation services is impractical and would be prohibitive.

yet there is political pressure brought to bear for uk industry to adapt to the diverse array of languages now spoken in this country.

so what would be the politically correct way of dealing with non-english speakers - insist they learn, or allow them to be killed?
Very good point that is mushroom, I have come across immigrants in industry who can barely speak English but still manage to get a job, so who interviews them for a job and how does the immigrant that can barely say a few words of English answer any questions ?.
Blame it on Employment Law tony
I do tambo, stupid as they are in this case.
Most of our council labour is polish; twas irish before

tamborine
Most of our council labour is polish


Why is this, tambo ?.
