.. in 2016, immigrants from so-called "Eastern Europe" were to blame because they took "very well-paid and lucrative work"… in warehouses, factories, production lines, etc. so they held a referendum.
In 2025, the disabled are to blame
In 2035, the pensioners will be to blame.
Mark my words.
I am not British but I have lived here for over 20 years and this is my home and that of my children.
And my heart breaks as this country falls down a slippery slope.

I hope you don't go. My heart goes 10 to the dozen when i see arguments/too much stress and it's already a very highly stressful time for us all anyway. I just hope everybody just let's it go (not the Community). It'd be nice to be able to all move forward together x
Ps not trying to offend anyone saying that and I'm not arguing. We all need now, more than ever, to be kind to each other and ourselves.

Not all are desperate, if they were they would settle in Germany, France they are safe country. They come because the government give them everything, plus freebies, free driving lessons, they get 3 meals a day warm hotels. Councils are over stretch, they said its not safe in the areas.so pensioners, farmers disabled get picked on.before you mention farmers are ok, one of my family knows one who committed suicide because of her inheritance tax. Not all pensioners are well off, my sister and brother in law can't get pension credit because they are slightly over.

All that being as it is, do you think grudging migrants is the way forward? I don't believe that it is. Some of what you have described, it sounds like talking points in the Daily Mail etc.
Do you know that ordinary citizens have to pay 40% Inheritance Tax ( Well, the beneficiaries pay it)? Farmers are being asked to pay 20%, with 10 years to pay.
Many young people who have been to agricultural college, they can't hope to get into farming with some land owners hoarding so much land.
There is always another way to look at a situation.
