If you think "the majority" of migrants are not receiving benefits of some sort, you would probably be shocked. And even more so when you realise many pay in a LOT less than they receive. Especially amongst the unskilled migrants from A8 countries. I know as I have seen the paperwork of quite a few.

Absolutely.
From the research that I've done on this, the "they pay in more than they take out" argument was true before the poorer Eastern European migrants started coming.
These people take out more than they put in.

The majority so far seem to be in favour of us allowing people to stay.
I'm interested as to whether people think that this should also apply to those convicted of criminal activity, or who have never worked to any great extent or are a burden on our NHS etc?
