Economics aside, they are putting pressure on public services. Yes, some help the NHS, but how many more of these NHS staff are needed to cope with the immigrants themselves?[.

It's natural to be influenced by what we see and experience as opposed to the bigger picture that we get from grey statistics. We probably all are far more swayed than we care to admit by our own experiences, especially adverse ones.
If you look at the ages of EU immigrants v the current UK population, you will see that they are younger hence the £2,300 a year profit the country makes from them.
