Let's go back to the pre-1950s shall we. It was ever so peaceful, with continuous hot sunny days, running in the meadows picking flowers. We never used to have any wars, bomb shelters, rationing. Or to the 70's where we never used to have blackouts, unemployment or cold wars. It was all so much better then. This EU has got a lot to answer for.

Those immigrants were brought in by Labour to fill the jobs our people wouldn't do. If any one is to blame it's them.
Never in my life have I read so much drivel! The 50's and 60 were good years. Even McMillan himself said we never had it so good. It wasn't until Wilson really that things started to go down the gurgler. Oh his first term was ok but from '68 it was all downhill. Again you have them to blame for the treatment of the Workforce at the time. We had no choice but to strike for better conditions and pay. This has sod all to do with the EU though so don't know why you even mention it. I suggest you research why the '70s happened and why these immigrants were brought in then come back and see if you write the same drivel.
