Do you think there are a lot of immigrants in UK?

Question

the definition for me of immigrant is a non-europeen citizen (african+asian+latino)

Answer 1

There certainly are!

We'd just got used to the Celts when in came the Romans clanking about and straightening all the roads and making us all have baths - then along came those vulgar Anglo-Saxons, drinking and rioting and singing rude songs - then in came the Vikings , who were even ruder, doing rape and pillage all over Geordie-land. We'd just got them settled down a bit when darn my sox the pesky old Normans crossed the Channel and wrote us all down in the Domesday Book!

So off we went to settle the rest of the world, dispossessing native Australians and Americans and Africans to grab their resources and wreck their culture.

This country's wealth was built on the slave trade and the exploitation of the colonies - I call that theft.

Having colonised and exploited people's lands, we invited as many as could be fooled by promises to come and do our dirtiest jobs for little pay and lots of abuse. The slave trade repeated.

And the current wave? Take a good look - for every cunning exploiter, there are dozens hidden away in the otherworld economy, no safety rules, no job security, no insurance, no prospects.

Yes, do take language classes - you'll learn a lot.

Answer 2

Yeah but so what?

Answer 3

Yes there are millions and they need to go home we are fed up with them. Enough said I think

Answer 4

Fair too many. No wonder there's a housing shortage, they all get priority whilst us brits get pushed to the back of the queue.

I really dread what it will be like in another 10 years time.

Answer 5

What are you defining as a immigrant?

I am half swiss myself.

Although no one is pure british. Think of all the viking and romans who came here.

My point?

Everyone, no matter if here from birth, is to some extent a immigrant.

Answer 6

Yes there are far to many immigrants in this country and everyone that agrees are all racists

Answer 7

yes there is as lordkelv asks are there any brits left there may be a few but those who can have done like me and my wife moved to spain

Answer 8

for all these people who act like immigrants are spongers, my family is pakistani muslim and has been here for generations my grandfather was an accoutant, my grandmother a well loved, competent headteacher, my mother a nutritionist, my first uncle an engineer, my second a barrister and my third an IT Software Engineer

My dad is an IT administrator- he has paid all his taxes, paid all his library fines and in my memory has taken about 10 sick days in 12 years of service to the same company.

Compare us to the average school dropout who ahd a kid at 14, and sponges with a deadbeat boyfriend only she is english.. is she more deserving or better than us? So what, we have things we have to do like got o the mosque sometimes and eat special meat but SO WHAT? I am a British person and proud to be (if you've seen my 'hate americans' question reply you'll understand)- if the BNP or any of you have any problem with people slightly different from you then I feel sorry for you because my great grandparents really believed in this country- them and their grandparents both served in the 1st and second world wars, and their children came here thinking that they could get a better life.  

Answer 9

It's so bad at work I'm thinking of taking Polish evening classes.

Answer 10

Yes, far too many. Our country is on its knees & they still keep coming. Enough is enough, we need our culture back before it is so diluted it is unrecognisable.

Answer 11

Yes Definitely!

I don't know if it's a good thing or not! Some of my best childhood friends were immigrants but then again they get such bad press!

And I don't think my boyfriend would welcome them with open arms...He quite likes his bike!

Answer 12

Yes. Too many.

I'm not racist, but those immigrants that come into the country and leech of benefits is just a drain on society and they should be sent home, or apply for asylum.

Asylum seekers I am fine with, because they are only in the country because they could be killed if they stayed in their own country, but even they should have to find a job and not leech of benefits.

There are way too many people in this country, we're pressed for space, and alot of the jobs are going to forigners, leaving many british people unemployed.  

Answer 13

Have you just woken from a coma yes there is

Answer 14

YES, there are many, in fact too many, they should never have been allowed into the Uk, they come here and bleed the Social  Security system, they get housed with no problem, yet the natural born and raised UK people are shoved to the rear, immigrants come first!! it is very wrong

Answer 15

Yep to many!!!  

Answer 16

Yes

Answer 17

I think there is a lot of Indian people. And Polish too.  

Answer 18

WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY too many indians and pakistanis.

i don't mind the others to be honest because they don't come in the amounts as the indians and pakistanis do

bloody h**l  

Answer 19

An immigrant is anybody who is not from the UK, coming to live in the UK. Where you got the whole african/latino idea from I really don't know.

But to answer your question, yes there are a lot. All you need to do is take a day trip to Bradford and it'll all become clear. It's actually got to the point where in some places, I feel like a foreigner in my own country which if you ask me, is absolutely disgusting.

Answer 20

It's a pretty safe bet that when you see a Muslim that you have to pay homage too. He is not a local boy. Never fall for the Allahu Ackbar with a cockney accent.  

Answer 21

Obviously.. Yes..

Fact of life though.  

Answer 22

Well do you think the sun will rise tomorrow. tthat's  your answer.

Answer 23

Yes, so? Why does it matter? Imigrants do more good than bad for this country, you may get some BNP nut disputing that, but it's a fact. Now can people stop acting like a selfish 4 year old and share their country? America was built on immigration, which is why it is now the most powerful country in the world.

Answer 24

Yes, I do.

Answer 25

2to1 against the brits

Answer 26

Sure are... one wonders if there are any actual Brits left..

Answer 27

YES.

Answer 28

I can't for the life of me why you got some   ignorant answers !! I live in Florida and have never seen so many as . We moved to the  country thinking they would never move here....

Wrong !!  I have been fighting  with Social Security 2 yrs.. now as i have Fibromyalgia,sleep apnea,heart,Rheumatoid.

I had worked for 36 yrs. and yet I still wait. When I went to apply I was the only american in the building. I have gotten so upset I wrote to the Governor last week ,still waiting for an answer. And I have an attorney who does not get paid unless I win. What really gets me is when I go grocery shopping and they have a cart filled with food and yet we struggle.. So sad for all of us....... Take care!  

Answer 29

Millions and millions, unfortunately.

Answer 30
