    If you track your own family history back they probably immigrated to Britain too. Probably because conditions were favourable to where they resided before going. We live on an island. I welcome everyone.

    Unlikely due to the fact that once younger migrants arrive here, their friends and family will also come over in due time. But look, you've been caught out - the 'only 1%' nonsense that the Beeb and you are putting out is total rubbish when you actually look at the numbers. If I said that 1% of the Chinese population had HIV, that'd seem like a low amount - but in numbers its a high amount, just like this.

    If its certain that low numbers will arrive, then why are the government refusing to release their estimates?

    When they discover how hard it is getting work in southern Europe I think much will change. On statistics, erm you are the one who claimed low numbers were going to arrive? I and UKIP have stated all along that its likely to follow the same pattern as Poland did back in the 2000s where hundreds of thousands came in - and even BBC figures back us up.

    The difference (very simple) being that British people have paid into the system (with those on higher wages bearing the biggest burden). I am afraid that low wage earners from Eastern Europe who do work barely manage to break the system even.

    The only extreme position here is the one you and the three main parties hold - that we should allow unlimited numbers of people from very poor countries and different cultures into our country without taking into consideration any impact on crime, cultural divisions or welfare/infrastructure. You are the extremist, UKIP simply want to do what most sovereign nations out of the EU do; sensibly control the borders.

    As for dying parties, perhaps - but perhaps it'll work in my favour.
