IMMIGRATION WITHIN THE EU

The Schengen Agreement that governs immigration is the same as the rest of the EU; it's something very undemocratic wrapped in a thin but attractive shell that vaguely suggests democracy, which promotes more chaos, tension and economic problems than it resolves.

The whole "you can go and work anywhere in Europe if you join the EU" is a big carrot on a stick. You shouldn’t have to surrender your sovereignty, citizenship, dignity or traditions to be free to travel.

Put into basic number terms:

* The current population of the UK is about 61 million, give or take a couple of million for illegal immigrants and asylum seekers.

* The approx. total current population of the EU's member states on the continent is 495.5 million.

* Now, under current EU regulations already signed into UK law, ALL of those people are legally entitled to come to the UK, find a house and get a job.

Does that put it into perspective for people as to why we have a runaway immigration problem, mass unemployment and rising house prices?

Another common example of that is how everyone blames immigrants for what's going wrong in our country, but doesn't assign the blame to the people who should be controlling the immigration.

Remember that I said the EU views democracy as outmoded? It views nationalism and national pride the same way, since the two are mostly connected throughout Europe. The Schengen Agreement is the best and fastest way to turn the whole of Europe into one vast, chaotic melting pot - because then we're going to be so busy arguing with each other we won't notice our freedoms slowly slipping away.

If you were an immigrant in an oppressed nation, and you and your children were starving to death or looking to get murdered any day now, and another much richer nation was offering you a free meal ticket with no restrictions, wouldn't you take it?

It’s my opinion that these people are being used just as much as we are.
