Ruth - as usual you avoid and cut and twist things because you don't like immigration being questioned; I repeat, is the solution to leave, or to stay and be part of the solution?; has all the mass economic/capitalist immigration/emigration of the last century ended the rotten inequality in the world? No - the solution is, rather...

Poem 105 of 230: GLOBAL REGULATIONISM

No income-scale would be unjust -
    It's a matter of degree;
And, to have less inequality,
    Regulations are a must.

For, in Millennium's status quo,
    The pay-gaps for human work,
And what's gotten simply as a perk,
    Are wrong - inhumanely so.

"The Normans, your ancestors, were some of the biggest imperialists and capitalist immigrants the world has known." (Volgadon)...you are so, almost imperialistically, sure of yourself, Volgadon - I'm only sure that all my known forebears were born here; I've heard about the crusading Franks, of course; I've heard that my great grandfather may have practised the jewish religion; I've heard about a famous Jewish family of spectacle makers in Manchester's past; and I've heard something about Franks coming here as translators during Bede's day..."The Normans, your ancestors"...wow, such confidence!
And again - "there AREN'T any neighbouring countries with this sort of refugee problem, so England won't have to be soiled by any asylum seekers! That is, unless there are some from Iceland, as I assume he would guide the French to Spain or Germany." (Volgadon)
"Wav, do you consider yourself a Christian? If the answer be yes, do you believe in the New Testament?" (Volgadon)...yes, "When I survey the wondrous" cross is atop my myspace playlist (I used to move it back down on Mondays but can't at the moment...anyone else still having this trouble since the changes?).
Catspaw: because I have been prepared to take temporary, whilst prefering permanent, contracts, I've actually worked for several companies here/got through several interviews where, of course, I keep my political mouth shut - even when faced with comments such as "Why ON EARTH did you come back?" or "You must be mad", partly because there was so much pro-immigrationism here during the Blair years, which New Labour have only just begun to question (introducing English tests, etc.).
