      ​​The 30-40,000 people who come by boat aren't a strain on resources. They're a problem because they're illegal immigrants, so they claim asylum, which means they can't work, so they become economic burden.
      It's the ~750,000 LEGAL immigrants who end up competing with locals for resources such as houses, schools and jobs. However, approx half of these are students, many of whomwould either find work or return home after completion of their studies.
      The HUGE mistake the government made (and it really is a whopper) is allowing students and workers to bring dependents with them...

    Just for context. According to the last immigration figures from the ONS, 1,200,000 people migrated into the UK (gross) in 2023, which is the size of a city larger than Glasgow arriving (8/10 countries in the top 10 arriving are non-Western). 685,000 people arrived as a net figure in 2023 (gross figure minus the number of people leaving the UK), that is similar to the size of a city like Sheffield arriving. In a single year. This means, on average and roughly, that every single minute 1.3 people arrive in the UK. Quite literally a 'migrant a minute'. (edit: typo)

    On legal migration:
    1) People have been able to enter the UK to work, but these are not doctors and engineers, but overwhelmingly low income jobs, with the minimum income of £13,000 previously. Plus families.
    2) Unless someone earns over ~£35,000, they are a net cost to the economy. Add in non-working family members and one needs to earn more.
    3) If we have net immigration of 1 million each year and build 250,000 homes, it causes a housing crises.
    4) This is not about racism or xenophobia, but the realisation our infrastructre cannot cope with the current population.
    5) Caps did not work as there was never any sincerity in them with the hope the issue would blow over.
    6) Why do students need to bring their families?
    7) Our workforce shortage can be filled by reducing the size of the State and move civil servants to the private sector and closing universities. And cap the time allowed on sick benefit with stress and anxiety to 3 months, which will free up over 1m workers.

      Even cheaper if they would listen to early warning and open office in france so each case could be apply there instead crossing channel to apply,France gave them a choice but as usual the arrogant gov thought they knew better or more.likely trun a.blind eye

    The problem with both student and temporary work visas is that they can both lead to indefinite leave to remain after 5 years of residence in the country. And of course once these new immigrants obtain permanent residency they will apply for visas allowing them to also bring their family over. Both student and temporary work visas should be temporary with no possibility of extension otherwise immigrants from all over the world will continue using these schemes as a way to move permanently to this country.

I phoned 111 and explained the catastrophe to them and they sent me off to Preston Royal Hospital. I was triaged in 10 minutes and out of the hospital in two and a half hours with the correct medication. Preston has 20,000 people than Blackburn. This wasn't a medical crisis only a minor problem. So what's going on here. Is this the migrants crisis or mismanagement

    Moreover, British citizens living abroad are excluded from debates on ‘migration.’ They are shielded from negative connotations that the term ‘migration’ has acquired. They are not connected to housing shortages or rising prices. Retired British citizens in Southern Europe are not seen as exerting pressure on public services, cost or accessibility of health care, and the drain caused on national resources of host countries. While the news depicts ‘migrants’ in Britain as a threat to the country’s security, economy, and social cohesion, British ‘expats’ are not discursively linked to any of these migration-associated anxieties. The vision of Britons who historically never saw themselves as ‘immigrants’ is reproduced today by the country’s mainstream media. The troped identities of buccaneers, explorers, and entrepreneurs-historically assumed by the British to colonize and exploit the world
    Put simply, media narratives re-create older colonial dynamics and identities in a contemporary setting, producing the ‘superior’ West vis a vis the ‘inferior’ rest

  • @piercoucy

    Amazing that there is no mention to why "a large chunk of people coming to work are coming in the healthcare system" No mention at all of why we need more people there. The truth is that many doctors and nurses are leaving the NHS, or going only to part time. Where are they going? The the private sector (in UK or abroad). Such an important shift and nobody talks about it. The plan is clear: make the NHS worse and worse, and force people to go private. There was an interesting piece in the Financial Times, few years ago: "London lures world’s top private health groups" (Dec-18). I don't see why suddenly private groups would start investing in doing business in a country where there was no chance of doing business because the public health service was good enough. I saw how this same plan unfolded in other countries, and it ended in miseri for the common people. It is happening again here, and I am not sure if I feel sorry or sadly satisfied. In the end, ignorance, apathy, stupidity needs to have a punishment, and this one is a self-inflicted one.

  • @rosshilton
    @rosshilton 7 місяців тому

    Let’s end the NHS myth once and for all:
    1. Only 110,748 licensed doctors in the UK as at 2021 were internationally trained.
    2. in the year ending June 2021, there were: 6.0 million people were living in the UK who had the nationality of a different country (9% of the total population).
    3. This means of 6 million migrants only 110,000 were Doctors. That means only 1.82% of migrants were actually Doctors.
    4. Most new registrations by internationally trained doctors from 2009-2019 did not have a specialty at the time of initial registration (96.2% in 2019). Only a relatively small number of these doctors go on to gain specialist or GP registration (11.6% within 5 years)
    THE UK IS NOT IMPORTING SURGEONS.
    FINALLY:
    The Global Strategy on Human Resources for Health Workforce 2030 stipulates that countries need to halve their dependence on foreign-trained professionals by 2030. Given the UK’s commitment to the WHO Global Code, the reliance on the international recruitment of doctors to address workforce shortages is not a desired or sustainable solution. This has been recognised in the 2023 NHS Long-Term plan which stipulates that in the long-term the UK needs to train sufficient doctors to meet domestic demand

    Governments issues Visas for legal immigration so it’s a political decision and they have ultimate control. So Tory Governments have chosen to allow higher migration so they need to explain why. I suspect they know it’s good economically but don’t have backbone to explain this to the public and justify their actions but just play politics.
    We need a grown up conservation across all political parties about immigration and the impact if it’s restricted to very low levels ie. Lower growth, higher taxes, lower pensions etc. rather than blaming immigration and government issuing more Visas. So stop playing politics and grow up and educate the public about this subject. Brexit was in part about immigration and clearly that was a lie because the Tory’s have allowed immigration to increase post Brexit even though they argued it was the EU that stopped them controlling it pre Brexit.
