Subject: RE: BS: Post-Referendum Racism
I am totally opposed to racism as is any reasonable person Co-operator.

Questioning the wisdom of EU policy on immigration is NOT racism, it has nothing to do with the ethnicity of the people involved.

Had the EU consisted of countries with economies which were on a par perhaps free movement MIGHT have been workable, but given present conditions the flood will always move from poor countries to more affluent ones. It was designed by Capitalists as a reservoir of cheap labour, without a thought for social consequences.
Allowing the infrastructure of the immigrants countries to be decimated whist driving down wages in Britain and avoiding the need for expensive re-training and job creation for our own young people.

Of course we value immigration, but only in numbers we can sustain.
