Too many UK citizens are binned by government onto benefits as there has been an ample supply of cheap labour to paper over the cracks in our system.

The problem is that because the 'great and the good' are the last to be directly affected, these situations are often allowed to get out of hand before these people accept or even realise the impact that's being felt elsewhere. For all their talk, gestures and sound-bites, how many of those personalities, politicians, religious leaders, professional commentators, activists, ever really put their money where their mouth is?
We have allowed migrants to become a resource and income stream for all sorts of dubious people whose motives range from the utterly heartless and selfish to the wholly destructive and in tackling this problem the EU has shown itself to be about as incisive and fleet-footed as Mount Everest.
