You make a good point. Look at a country like Japan. They have very low immigration from other
countries, they don't support very many corporations other than Japanese ones, they are generally a
very self supporting nation. And I think this is the reason why they are so advanced, and have so
many intelligent, hard working people. |

I can do nothing but totally agree with you.
A question that rarely gets asked is what is happening to Poland when half their skilled workforce
come to the UK. |

Governments increasingly realize that immigration is necessary for economic prosperity in most
western countries, where low birth rates and high life expectancies are creating an ageing
population. Both Britain and Poland, for example, have stood to benefit from the fact that anywhere
from between 400,000 to one million Poles have moved to the UK to find work since 2004. The British
hospitality sector has had great difficulty filling vacant positions; especially the lowest paying
ones.
Poland has also benefited from the departure of up to a million of its citizens, since the relative
shortage of nannies, cleaners and construction workers has finally started pushing up the
outrageously low wages in this former Eastern bloc country.
There is no alternative to immigration. Most governments that tried to replace this policy with
pro-natalism failed quite miserably. |
