Default BNP

The fact of the matter is that the UK needs immigrants. We have insufficient numbers of Doctors, Teachers etc and we aren't producing them at a fast enough rate. The idea that they simply come over to the UK to claim benefit is rubbish spread by the Sun and the Mail. If they wanted to claim benefits they'd do it in their own country - they're looking for jobs.

By 2020 the UK population will start to fall. Besides nearly all inhabitants of the UK were immigrants at some point - Normans, Saxons, Vikings, Jutes etc. So now define 'native.' You see what I mean? Xenophobes really have no place in modern society - boundaries of states are becoming less and less defined, I have no wish to see Britain isolated which is what the BNP are advocating.

The crux of the argument is we need immigrants and they need us. The only people who will fear anything are those who read the lies sprouted by the British tabloids.

BNP - er.... no thanks
