People fail to realize that the problems they have are nothing to do with immigration but just years of poor decisions by the government finally catching up with the UK. Local councils certainly don't help much either. Its far too common to see large housing projects fall through because it might get in the way of somebodies view.. Then people wonder why there are no affordable homes or employment opportunities.
Yeah, America has a pretty good history of that, too. For centuries, all of our jobs have been taken by the Irish the Eastern Europeans the Chinese the Mexicans illegal immigrants.
