The only reason Britain is deteriating is because of our Government. The EU at least keeps them from 100% destroying us.

Also we have British rights, backed up by the EU. We have workers rights the EU improved them.

I have a good job now but went through a couple of bad years recently and got all the help I needed. I work in a place that employs British people, Irish people, Polish people, Indian People, Spanish people French people who all live here and are entitled to have jobs to earn money for them and their families.

You make it sound like they shouldn't work and should all be sent home so British folk can have the jobs and social housing. That is so so wrong.

We should be proud as Brits that we are a welcoming multi cultural society who welcomes others when they have no one to turn to and no where else to go. A place where people should feel happy.

Next you'll be saying the earth is flat.

Also tin hat time. Vote using the wax pencils they give you. They can't be erased and should your ballot paper get wet the vote will still be there unlike a black pen!

No it's not. Not voting is a wasted vote. Voting for what you think is right no matter the outcome is always important.

Well, surprise, surprise. Why do you assume I am a UKiper and why would that be an issue? I only want, in my personal opinion, what I think is best for Britain. You have your say, I have mine.

You obviously have not read the whole thread, Britain will not crumble. The leave campaign don't want to build a wall and stop migration completely. Why don't remain campaigners understand the word CONTROL. Should we use the word MANAGE? Will this make it easier to understand?

I am pleased you had all the help you needed, it is a shame there is such a division in who is helped and who isn't.You were one of the lucky ones. If Europe is so good for our country, why are people experiencing the issues they do. If Europe are big on human rights and they want to protect us, why don't they step in and help the people who are being treated despicably by this government. They cannot just pick and choose. What do they really do in all honesty. They do what benefits them best! See one of the many stories below:

A grandad who had just found out his benefits were being stopped shot himself dead – after telling friends he was “unable to cope”.

Shaun Pilkington, 58, was sent a letter saying he was to lose his *Employment and Support *Allowance, which he got after a long-term illness.

He was told he would have to be reassessed and needed to prove he was eligible. But as the hearing approached, friends said Shaun, a licensed gamekeeper, became discouraged.

Days later he called police and said he was about to kill himself. They found him dead at his flat.

A neighbour said: “There were armed police everywhere. Sadly he’d gone through with his threat.

“It is a tragedy. He was upset because he got a letter saying his ESA was being stopped.

“He was pretty down about it and said he was finding it hard to cope with the decision. He was a lovely man. It is not fair what the Government is doing.”

Well-wishers left floral tributes and cans of Stella outside Shaun’s home in Beighton, Sheffield.

The neighbour added: “It all got on top of him – having no money for Christmas and being warned he’d lose his benefits.

“It’s wrong what they’re doing, targeting people on benefits. We haven’t got a lot of money but the Government seems intent on cutting it.”

As to your comment 'You make it sound like they shouldn't work and should all be sent home so British folk can have the jobs and social housing. That is so so wrong' please direct me to a sentence I have actually said this? This is absolutely your opinion and an incorrect opinion at that.

I have worked with many nationalities throughout my career, I have provided guidance and advice on the visa Tier system. I fully believe in multi-culturism. I also believe that we should allow the most skilled people to Britain to work. We need the best in academia, the medical profession, areas where there are skill shortages, unskilled workers to meet economic demands but we need to check we are allowing good, decent, hard working people into our country.

Obviously you are not aware that some countries do not hold criminal record information in the way that the UK does. For instance, in the UK, someone who has committed 2 crimes now matter how minor will always have these detailed on an enhanced records check if they wish to work will children or vulnerable adults as the record is never spent (even if this relates to a silly period as a young adult yet, in Spain for example, when a record is expunged after a certain period, information is not available if a UK DBS check is requested. This person can work with vulnerable adults and children yet may be unsuitable. Europe allows these laws which benefit some people in the EU who have a criminal record yet they are not interested in the lives of those UK citizens who are penalised all their life for a mistake or two! Does Europe consider the human rights of UK ex-offenders? Would you be happy for an unsuitable person to care for your parents or look after your children because they cannot be properly vetted, or they come from a country where criminal record information is not held?

There should not just be a free for all so that we don't know who we are opening our borders to. The infrastructure in certain cities will collapse in time. I don't have any issues with race, age, sexuality, religion etc. I am for helping refugees who genuinely need our help. I do have an issue with overcrowding, limitation of services, allowing terrorists and criminals free access into our country, supposed refugees who don't register in the first country they arrive in, wages being pushed down, lack of jobs in areas for British born citizens due to economic migrant excess in certain areas. Why should I not expect this, my grandfather fought in the war, paid taxes, my parents paid taxes, I paid taxes - surely I should have a right to live in a place I feel happy too - why should I not have the same consideration given to newcomers to our country, I have the interests of Britain at heart. I want Britain to foremost retain our sovereignty and at the same time allow multi-culturism to thrive.

Please let me know which company you work with, perhaps I could submit my CV.

.. and in response to your comment that I will be saying the earth is flat, you simply destroyed any credibility you had!

Additionally, I will use both pen and pencil to register my vote, better to be safe than sorry.

Please remember, it is people like my husband who fight for the rights of many different nationalities and who keep Britain safe whilst putting their own lives at risk!

Have a lovely day!
