Take it how you want but them costs LTH's imagine what they are for the whole of the UK and it will only get worse.
Infact on our ward they are employing staff that can talk certain languages so it cuts down on interpretation costs and they say immigration doesn't affect jobs.
We are out hopefully

Yeah but that's clearly nothing to do with uncontrolled migration is it...
That Unite leaflet above is tripe. How can anyone seriously claim that net migration of 1m every 3 years isn't adding to the housing crisis? If we can't build enough homes to suit the existing population, adding millions more sure ain't gonna help is it. I dare say they also believe that population increase in the UK is nothing to do with migration either.
