Why do you hate migration so much?

I think if you look it is as I say life expectancy is flat and falling-
You seem desparate.

I've quoted you two sets of stats from the ONS.
Not a single credible source disagrees with them.

I don't hate all migration. In fact , I'm married to someone who's mixed race. My son is dating some who's mixed race. I'm not a racist. I don't care about the colour of people's skin or where they were born.
What I hate is that my kids are never going to be able to leave home. My family and friends have kids that can't leave home. The reality of three generations in a house is my realirty. My kids don't earn much despite dripping in educational qualifications because there is too much competition in the labourmarket - which is great for employers.
Their lives are crap. I had a better life.
I don't know why you can't see what is happening ?
My kids will have a better life when we leave the EU. So will everyone elses.Turn your face to the sun and the shadows fall behind you.0 -
And yes Hamish a third of the population are Boomers and will die soon. It's terrible that I see that as a positive event because then my kids can afford a house. But hey hoe I didn't invite millions into our country.
I also see the flat lining of lifeexpecatancy as a positive.Turn your face to the sun and the shadows fall behind you.0 -

Being in the EU ROCKS!
How exactly is it the fault of the EU that the UK as a country didn't build enough housing while selling off a lot of the affordable housing it had with huge discounts?
You're looking at this in completely the wrong way and blaming the wrong people. It's the fault of consecutive British governments and in absolutely no way the fault of the EU.💙💛 💔0 -
Germany and France feel a lot more empty, we're full unless your a maniac that desires ever more Humanity, congestion, pollution, wildlife destruction and unsustainability.
Around market towns like mine the reality of your beloved mass immigration is all too apparant, and there is nowhere else to build roads u less you want to carve every farm and remaining woodland up.
We as a people have been shaped by the magical landscape we a have been endowed with, toss it away and it won't come back.
Here are the population density stats. Per European country:
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Area_and_population_of_European_countries
This shows the UK to be one of the most densely populated countries in EU. However the population density of England is 406 per sq km, compared to 67 in Scotland.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demography_of_the_United_Kingdom
ETA: the only EU country with a population density higher than England is Malta. A handful of EU countries have a lower population density than Scotland: Ireland, the Baltic nations, Sweden and Finland.Please stay safe in the sun and learn the A-E of melanoma: A = asymmetry, B = irregular borders, C= different colours, D= diameter, larger than 6mm, E = evolving, is your mole changing?
