    Quite incorrect, the term ALL FOREIGNERS was never used, neither the post or this thread is even remotely about any "percentage" of immigrants either illegal or on benefits, or paying their way. A case of Patroiophobia on your part.

    Your point was pointless!.:D

    Look at the number of foriegners here,all after free benefits which I have to pay for.

    Hmm yes, the exact phrase "All Foreigners" was never used but the message is pretty clear and is that "all foreigners in this country are after free benefits"

    I think you can quite clearly see that the OP has said 'all' foreigners are after our free benefits so my pointless point wasn't so pointless after all!

    I'm sick of Foreigner taking our jobs. I came in to work one day to find Mick Jones sitting at my desk - and Ian McDonald was making the tea!

    Foriegners do come to our country for benefits.Read the daily mail article about foriegners living in mansions while we poor tax payers have to pay for them.I know which party I am voting for and every partiotic English born and bred person should do the same.

    No, but I know when newspapers twist the truth to mislead people. And I don't claim everything that I don't quite like is the end of the world/country/whatever. Nor do I resort to random catchphrases to describe those I disagree with
