My recent experience of Eastern European countries is that they have quite good communty style policing and have learned much from their turbulent past. Unlike here in the UK where we seem to be adopting the old ways of the Communist era. This may be why many Eastern European immigrants end up going back. |

I partly go along with that, JK. Open the borders and have free travel, but enforce laws regarding begging and vagrancy, and don't allow benefits or free healthcare (apart from emergencies) until the person has paid into the system in some way. This way we maintain both freedom and order. |

are you suggesting Eastern Europeans are more likely to be criminals?
I spent many years in Hungary and felt perfectly safe walking the streets of Budapest (and other towns) at all hours. |

My personal feeling on immigration is that I think all countries should have totally open borders and let in anyone who wants to come. Society should then decide how government deals with the population. End of story. |

Ok, I've seen this b4, its from nearly 10 years ago, I'm sure that there are pictures of Peter Mandelson in communist party or David Cameran at a fox hunt (which he now opposes)
He's just talking about putting a spin on his ideas, I guess New Labour don't put a spin on anything then?.
Purity is usually considered to be a good thing, its just how you go about it that is right or wrong. I think countries should obtain some element of identity, which the uk is losing. If you go to Spain or Turkey, most people want to venture out into the 'real' spain or 'real' turkey (i.e. the places that aren't full of brits and british bars etc.). In the uk there is increasingly less and less places that maintain the british tradition and are filled with Indian and chinese takeaways, Kebab shops, polish supermarkets.
Also an influx of Eastern European immigrants has lead to increased crime levels, women are been trafficked into the sex industry and have to work as virtual sex slaves, do we want this in the uk. I'm not for a complete ban on immigration, but like most people much stricter controls or even a virtual complete shutdown for a year or two. Jack Straw said that we want the most talented people in this country (i.e. he wants to screw up other countries by draining them of their talent). What he means is he wants foreign talent which is cheaper than british talent and thus balls to the british, I'm sure br will agree with this.
All politics is spin and different ways of saying things have very different meanings
e.g. we want the most talented people from abroad to come to this country, really means foreigners work for less money, lets get them in and make more money for big bosses and increase unemployment for the uk working classes.
We need a party that represents the uk working class, the bnp isn't it, but not all of their ideas should be dismissed just because some of their ideas are abhorrent. |
