Welcome yourself into the new modern crisis
If we're having an NHS off...

I don't work for the NHS. I work in the NHS, for the state. That's my take on it anyway.

In your opinion maybe, some might think the left wing, open all borders, let any c**t in attitude that you may hold is idiotic but there you go. 😉

Finally, the nub of shep.

Contractor then?

Or just disillusioned?

Come on then Shep, why do you think that attitude is wrong? Let's have some rationale...

Here's mine as to why it is the right attitude:-

1) Immigrants and Asylum seekers put more into the economy per capita than those born and bred in the UK
2) The number of people actually wanting to come here isn't that great and used to be largely balanced by emigration.
3) Immigration meets skill shortages and creates a more dynamic society
4) UK citizens benefit from being able to take their skills to other countries - leaving the EU has significantly lowered net Emigration by making it far harder for British Citizens to work in other countries.

Please tell me that your rationale is more thought out than "they talk funny / are the wrong colour / there's no room", which seems to be the usual set of Brexiteer arguments.

Sorry, but these are largely financial arguments, looking upon people as beans in an accountant's spreadsheet. The main reason must surely be, they are destitute people who are fleeing poverty, famine and war and we should welcome them with open arms as fellow human beings.

Of course. But if we are discussion whether or not immigration should be controlled, and how, then "just because it's the right and human thing to do" doesn't carry that much weight unfortunately.

They are also the backbone of the NHS.

Yep, it's all about humanitarian value-adding sadly.
Bit like the Tories new foreign aid policy as a means of political influence rather than by humanitarian need.
Facts are always trumped by prejudice as any fule kno....
