If we need extra young people in the country, why is the Government going to limit benefits to the first two children? You'd think they'd be encouraging people to have as many as possible.
Perhaps it's because its cheaper to import immigrants than pay for maternity, health, education etc of children born here- but at what other costs?
As the vote seems to be going against the Government, I'm surprised that they haven't used the murder of Jo Cox as an excuse to cancel it.
It wouldn't surprise me if they used the murder as an excuse to nullify the result if it was to leave- saying that people were unduly influenced or that many were protest votes against violence.

HMG keeps telling us we need more people despite the fact that our population is growing at the rate of 1,000,000 every 3 years. Our services and infrastructure are clearly creaking at the seams wherever you care to look yet they still say we need more people. It'd make some sense if there was a rule that migrants could come for a maximum period of say 5 years but whilst people are coming in huge numbers and many are staying for good, all we're doing is perpetuating the problem on an ever larger scale. Frankly it's bonkers.
