Still, Cameron's pledge to reduce migration must be more than a meaningless soundbite, right?
Ooops.
Never mind though, those Eastern Europeans will all be heading home, what with the cuts, and unemployment soaring, etc.
After all, the bears on here have been promising that since 2007....
Oh dear.
But that's OK, it just means more Brits will be leaving. Us Brits must be heading overseas in droves, fleeing high property prices and recession.

Better build some more houses quick then.
