the sea around Britain is not man made, i find it offensive, that i being british should have to pay more than £3,000 for visa's to bring my wife and kids to live with me in the uk, while 'illegal' immigrants pay nothing, while overstayers on a tourist visa/ student visa stay here for many years after their visa expires. they are illegal because they have not followed immigration laws/rules or worse broken them.
I work with a pole who gets paid less than everyone else, my friend works for a company that has less than 20 employees , yet 7 are czechs, i wonder why.., 8 out of 10 new jobs created in the last 10years has been filled by immigrants.

a number of the 400,00 asylum seekers in the uk, are not true asylum seekers, some come to the uk on visitor visa/student visa, smuggled in on lorries, ferries and the eurotunnel and want to stay, some are illegal immgrants when caught claim asylum, they are refused asylum and then appeal , this process can take years, this abuse causes delays and problems for genuine asylum seekers..
the truth is probably in the middle, but you should see the facts yourself, not from your left or right wing press and media, but get out and read any uk immigration forum, and see the abuse that goes on.. how big is the abuse, no one knows..
