The article does say that the home office estimates immigrants pay £2.5bn more in taxes than they take in benefits. Maybe part of this money could go towards education for British people?

The problem with education is simply some people dont want to do any more than they have to, we need people that will do low skilled jobs, such as working in factories.
Not everyone has the aptitude to be a skilled craftsman, a tradesman, a doctor etc etc what do they do? simply sit and live on handouts while immigrants take jobs they are capable of doing?
And whilst we still have serious unemployment we should not be adding insult to injury to those who for educational reasons cannot obtain a job paying them £20 - £30 grand a year.
