We are already suffering with the nhs because of the resources being way stretched.

The NHS is struggling because the government are refusing to fund it properly.

Out of interest, what is the statistics for Brits marrying foreigners just so they can get citizenship and move their extended family over?

me not knowing the statistics for this doesn't take away the fact that it happens and it will keep happening. Lets just open the gates, let every single person come into our small island that wants to come in......where will it end? Overcrowding. It can't carry on. There is a reason so many people want to come to this country, yes, I am proud to live in Great Britain but I don't want to live in Great World, why is that wrong of me to think like this? My dad is 84 years old, a very well educated, intelligent man and he told me, "I have lived a long time and never in my life have I seen it as bad as it is today" He is surrounded by people from another country and culture and cannot see the faces of the people walking by. No one gives him the time of day where he lives, he isn't used to that, he is used to people stopping in the streets to talk to him, friendliness, neighbourly people, he has none of this anymore and this upsets him.

Tozzie many people feel that way which is why immigration is such a discussion point right now. Parts of Britain don't look like Britain anymore but some would try to convince us that is a good thing and we should all be excited about multiculturism because they say so. It isn't working - hence Brexit.

We are all entitled to our opinions and you are far from being alone in yours.

People who voted Brexit wanted less EU immigration, and therefore, more Asian migrants to take their place (unless they misunderstood Brexit and thought it meant less immigration altogether). Bringing up Brexit doesnt really make sense in a context regarding Muslim culture in Yorkshire, it will likely grow after Brexit, and the Brexiteers likely knew this.
The question is, does this really matter? does anyone have any evidence that multiculturalism is worse than countries with 99%+ of one culture. Look back on the world 200 years compared to now, wouldnt it just be correct to presume that multiculturalism is the way every country is moving (particularly the more economically advanced countries).
Countries where alcohol is banned, like Tunisia have bars and nightclubs, countries like Spain have neighbourhoods practically dedicated to non-locals, I've even watched an entire series of Big Brother in Uganda during a time where LGBT promotion was technically illegal (it isnt anymore, probably due to the changing attitudes of cultures around them). It just wouldnt make sense for these countries to move backwards, why would it make sense for Britain to do so? New Zealand has a pretty successful pay wage for genders system, Bangladesh and Singapore has an excellent ecological footprint, shouldn't we start incorporating their ideas? You don't lose a culture by incorporating others, fear of doing so is simply unfounded and irrational.

I honestly believe that those who voted for Brexit because of the foreigners, believed it would control immigration from around the globe and not just European foreigners. You hear too many Brexiteers complaining about open borders. We only have open borders within Europe for Europeans; to everyone else, those borders have tight and often impossible restrictions. An Iraqi traveller coming from France to the UK is as heavily scrutinized by immigration as he would be if he'd flown in from Iraq.

The tabloids give us all the impression that its easy; that they can come over here and sponge off our healthcare, social security and council housing; when in fact, if you are are anything other than European, its actually very difficult to get into Britain for anything other than a holiday. If you intend to work, study or simply reside here then its going to be quite problematic and very expensive.

Yeah you don't need statistics to back up the people you know who have done it. That's true.

But to make put it's a major problem the country is facing overall, that requires facts and figures beyond people you personally know.

I think everything going on at the moment demonstrates it is a major problem. You'd have to be blind in more ways than one not to see that. And it isn't for an idealistic and inexperienced youth to tell everyone else the way things should be.

Who are this inexperienced youth telling everyone else how it should be?

You think everything going on at the moment demonstrates Brits marrying foreigners to get them and their families citizenship is a major problem?

Or have you entered a discussion without double checking the context of certain posts and just responded?
