Official figures show an astonishing 558,000 migrants came to Britain last year a leap of 24% in just 12 months


Germany, United States and United Kingdom saw biggest flow of migrants
Sharpest increases in Czech Republic (38%), Israel (36%) and UK (24%)
OECD says Europe should prepare for 1million who will claim asylum
Britain refused to sign up to EU-wide quota system to resettle refugees

It's not astonishing at all if you consider the number of rounds of ammunition supplied to Ghadaffi in previous years ...

That is LESS than the Office for National Statistics data:-

http://www.ons.gov.uk/ons/rel/migration1/migration-statistics-quarterly-report/august-2015/sty-net-migration.html

636,000 people immigrated to the UK in the year ending March 2015, a statistically significant increase compared with 552,000 in the previous year

The immigration crisis is totally out of control. The U.K, electorate had the opportunity to vote for U.K.I.P, in the last general election but decided to continue with their tribal voting habits. As I tour England I sometimes, in a moment of lapsed concentration, think, am I on holidays in one of the Asian third world countries? Hey, Brits, stick to your traditional voting customs and you'll become 2nd class citizens in your own country.

And bad news for the multicultural bleeding heart idealists..
You cannot take human nature out of man, no matter how hard you try. We are by nature trbalists, survivalist of the species, concerned for our own territories and own kind. It is so decreed by nature. But we can try.

Why is it that the BBC, Channel 4 and ITV keep claiming that the migrants are welcomed by the people and governments across Europe, for it seems to be contrary to all the evidence.
There will be long term consequences to such large numbers of foreigners into settled states, with their different religions, languages, and cultures, and as we see so often they are already making huge demands on the host nations No one is addressing the potential consequences and the divisions that will inevitably be created.

Well guys, the population of the little town I live in is about 564,000, so how do you fancy another 'Sheffield' each year? Maybe in a few years time it will be more like another Manchester Borough or a Birmingham.

We will soon fill all those surplus houses, schools and hospitals etc., that we haven't got.
The 'good' news is that it is not as 'bad' as it looks, since over 300,000 left last year, mainly those 'honkey white' folk.

ps. Saudi is pouring in money to build Mosques and Madrassas in Germany, so maybe they will do the same for the UK immigrants - maybe buy up those emptying churches?

Oh, goodness gracious me!

Not Fox or RT if you want unbiased broad objectivity, you won't.

Ruddy difficult to find unslanted news these days.

He who pays the piper by and large gets the choice of 'tune'.

We can only protest at the numbers arising and the longer term consequences that so many seek to ignore, by writing to your MPs or the appropriate ministers. You will get a reply Here is the easy way to do just that.
It will all come to a head eventually and action will have to be taken, for it is currently unsustainable. Be involved, don't say "Why doesn't someone do something about it?", always say What can I do about it?" and then do it if you can

The people of Europe, but particularly the U.K, have been conditioned by the media, the sanctimonious multi-culturists and our politicians that to express concern about the ''appropriation'' of our towns and cities classifies them as bigoted racists. Parliament has passed laws making such protests an offence punishable by heavy fines and/or a prison sentence. The cowed indigenous population can only look on in horror as the hordes of immigrants sweep across the oceans and great continents of the world all heading for good old ''Benefits Britain''. I'm sure when they arrive here and discover the Aladdin's cave of free goodies they contact their relations and other tribe members about the utopia land they have found here.

Kipling isn't everyone's cup of tea these days, but he certainly knew how to make a valid point!

"The Stranger within my gate,
He may be true or kind,
But he does not talk my talk--
I cannot feel his mind.
I see the face and the eyes and the mouth,
But not the soul behind.

The men of my own stock,
They may do ill or well,
But they tell the lies I am wanted to,
They are used to the lies I tell;
And we do not need interpreters
When we go to buy or sell.

The Stranger within my gates,
He may be evil or good,
But I cannot tell what powers control--
What reasons sway his mood;
Nor when the Gods of his far-off land
Shall repossess his blood.

The men of my own stock,
Bitter bad they may be,
But, at least, they hear the things I hear,
And see the things I see;
And whatever I think of them and their likes
They think of the likes of me.

This was my father's belief
And this is also mine:
Let the corn be all one sheaf--
And the grapes be all one vine,
Ere our children's teeth are set on edge
By bitter bread and wine"

I remember the words of one Muslim a few years ago, 'We (Muslims) will take over your land and your laws will help us to achieve it'. It seems to me to be becoming a real possibility.

I think there generally is a trend with immigrants that third generations tend towards the norm. However, the grip of religious bonds with the Muslim communities might attenuate that rate. I very much doubt that the UK will ever become a Muslim State or subject to their Laws, that does not mean we cannot find ways to accommodate. The mistake we make is the promotion of ghettos and tolerance of pockets of totally alien cultures. But the British are a tolerant lot.

Yes a shocking statistic, but how many are counted as unemployed but are actually on the black?

Of course it depends on where you go,most of the UK is still nice and nearly all white,that should be good news to the bigots

Not if you watch the BBC news, and today it had Tim Peake (British astronaut) visiting kids at school ... the group of kids waiting to greet him was of ten year olds (approx) - only one of which was White - and I wouldn't be surprised to learn he was Polish.

If 'Benefit Street' were to produce their propaganda documentary in Rochdale they would have whole streets of Muslims on which to draw on.

Plenty of evidence. Much has been paraded here and HMRC have assessments based on facts rather than your fantasies. Your problem is that you cannot tolerate the thought that avoiding taxes by cash transactions is prevalent in the UK, you also cannot cope with the thought that it really is not difficult to game the DWP. Why? Because such truths contradict your desire to believe that all claimants for welfare support must, by definition, be genuinely in need. Problem for you is that these are inconvenient truths, however, they should not be used to muddy the claims that those at the other end of the spectrum who defraud HMRC big time are rogues we should catch, fine and in some cases imprison.
