Well... would you believe it, the ONS has underestimated the number of immigrants over 2001-11 from "new EU countries" by a mere 350,000? How was this possible? Seems they only bothered to count the ones coming in to Gatwick or Heathrow and couldn't be arsed to find out how many they were waving through other airports. If they can't even COUNT the legal immigrants who present themselves under their very noses accurately how can they even start to estimate the illegals?! http://www.bbc.com/news/uk-26972597 Yes, Mr Clegg, you fool no one! The 27% of the audience who bought your crap should be told the facts, and not the pack of lies you peddle! You cherry pick from the official statistics, and even they are often based on partial, incomplete, and politically slanted information. Meanwhile Italy is inundated with boat people and simply can't cope. 4000 have been rescued over just the past few days. They will be given papers and released because there's nothing else the Italian state can do. Germany won't help a bit - not even money to protect borders - because they are well shielded and rely on cheap labour for their industry. Eu - big on Europe and very small on Union! Time to get out, and kill the nonsense and political junketing off for good! Eight billion pounds a year we can spend on fixing our own problems, and get rid of the economic drag that only benefits Germany. Job at risk? Yes, only those at the trough though!
