to think immigration is too high

[mamamea]

Net migration hit an all-time record high today, according to the Office of National Statistics:

AIBU to think that given that England is already the second-most densely populated country of its size on the planet (behind only Bangladesh), that immigration is too high and should be reduced to zero, given that we also have a positive (and booming) natural population increase (deaths have never exceeded births in the UK, except perhaps during war)?

Why on earth would we possibly want to pack more and more people into an ever smaller space?

What, TaIkin? That's the biggest bloody outrage of this entire referendum malarkey.

It was in last weeks (which I finished reading this morning)
they are holding printing back by 24 hours so that they have the result for their editorials
(UK edition only)

Which is entirely fair enough. Still sulking.

"Fuck off" for a bullying attack is not allowed? I've seen a lot worse said on here.

Well then you should report them, please
We don't allow personal attacks.
Thanks ever so

The reason that this referendum is hanging in the balance is precisely because people are not to state they are worried about uncontrolled immigration.

Immigration might be a GOOD thing, but these people don't see that benefit.

We have to be able to discuss these issues as whatever tonight's result, it's not going away!!!!

These voters are not racist - they are pissed off

There is too many people in the world period. The planet was not built for 7 billion people. We will kill ourselves eventually.

7 billion people will die in the next 100 years.

Prettydumb: you freaked me out and then I realised that's true!!! Wow...never thought of it like that.
