The point is that we decide who we need.Eastern European countries with low wages joining the EU one by one and flocking here with us not being able to control it is not what the country needs.That just drives our wages down and keeps many of our own people out of work.

Hopefully it'll be more like Canada and Australia. If you want to live there you have to have some skills to offer, they have to need you.
