So your reason for owning is that you hunt abroad and hold it for that purpose the same as someone holding a rifle for African game? I was being a little harsh there perhaps, but you know roughly where I was coming from. Its just another nail in the coffin of freedom, due to a few idiots and a government who literally cannot wait to disarm its citizens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eu workers being replaced by those from the third world. Sounds like a good deal? Third world countries? The vast majority of non EEA migrants come under Tier 1 and 2 visas (highly skilled or skilled with work in place and/or sponsors) and the top countries of origin are India, Australia, The US, Philippines, New Zealand and China. Also whilst it's fair to say non EEA migration is on the rise, it's nowhere near the record levels of the mid 2000's. So to summarise your comment... Yes, it sounds like a very good deal.

Contrary to the misinformation spread by remoaners, I don't think most who support brexit are opposed to immigration, what they are opposed to is uncontrollable, unskilled workers coming over and taking jobs and lowering the pay for British workers, so as others have said, it appears to be a positive step in the right direction.

In all seriousness though, we are heading for an upheaval, either a no deal one , or a stay and go against the vote one, and the sad thing is , it really isnt our fault, although the EU claims , we are the ones ' messing every thing up' Can you not see they dont want us to leave ? And its not because they love us so much either, I believe a lot of the hierarchy within the EU have very little love and respect for the British at all. Theyre happy to take our money , and sell us goods, dump the more undesirable elements upon our shores. But it is our RIGHT to leave the project , if we feel it is no longer in our interests. They are making it difficult, so they can sabotage the process, and grind us down with their demands. May is either complicit , or too weak to combat this aggressive attitude. Many in the leave camp have finally got their head round leaving, plenty I know have been truly shocked at Brussels bullying tactics and changed camps. We need to preserve our democracy, flouting it will bring repercussions to the political landscape and beyond , that will make the pain of Brexit seem slight in comparison. Lets just go with no deal and negotiate from there, I reckon the EU will be more amenable that way. Try ? Do , or do not, there is no try ? said a small wise man once 😃 👍👍👍 Well said, I pray that someone with a large set of b***s will speak up , tell the EU 'we want out', get out and stuff it.

Record levels (since 2004 🙂) of non EU migration is not good news in my book. Equal opportunity for migration from 3rd world countries must be a more costly solution to the UK's labour needs than drawing from the EU. The propensity for associated family migration and long term settlement must be far higher when compared to the same migration from the EU. I am all for filling the skill shortage with suitably qualified workers but the UK also has huge call for relatively low skilled workers across the board.

Like I've said before, those who support brexit are often open to a broader world view than many who want to remain. Like Poontang said, I think it's a positive step, it would appear we've taken people who will benefit the UK, regardless of where they are from, rather than being forced by the EU to take who they dictate, sometimes at the detriment of the average UK worker.

Time perhaps to break the linkage between employment and settlement rights/citizenship, which leaving the EU will allow. Do our people working overseas all gain the right of citizenship? Is Retsdon now a Saudi citizen? The UK is getting full to bursting, we cannot sustain the present level of imigration on a physical level let alone it's effect on our culture and associated problems such as crime and social cohesion.
