I didn't say anywhere that "you thought that..."
But you seem to be saying that I claimed it here:
"Teribus, you won't be the first person to be accused of racism by claiming that "our welfare services, housing, education and labour markets are being swamped by the current level of immigration."
The original version is perfectly true:
"Ordinary people up and down the country are apparently concerned that our welfare services, housing, education and labour markets are being swamped by the current level of immigration - that is why they voted as they did." - Teribus
Expressed in MSM reports and analysis of results by political commentators of the EU referendum to explain how traditional labour voters turned out in droves to Vote LEAVE (Sunderland IIRC over 70%).
Now then just for a change answer the question asked:
"When was the critical breakpoint for all the investment and planning to accommodate the influx of people our country has experienced since the expansion of the EU and the refugee crisis we see as a result of repression and crack downs by Governments in Eritrea, Libya, Syria? It takes time (years) to plan and build hospitals, schools, transport facilities and houses and normally those tasked with predicting and planning those things operate from models based on current situation and probable predictions. Now back in the 1980s none of those planners or Government economists had the slightest inkling at all that Anthony Charles Lynton Blair would get up one morning and introduce complete unrestricted access to the UK."
