    Get a grip, what has being In or Out of the EU to do with immigration.  The UK has open borders for EU citizens, but the thousands you seem to be talking about are mostly illegal.  You can´t stop them coming when you are in the EU so how will you stop them when you are Out.

    You have no idea how many are actually in the country.  According to statistics 257,000 EU nationals came to live in Britain in the 12 months to September 2015, and 630,000 national insurance numbers were issued in the 12 months to December 2015. That is a big discrepancy.

    We have a big Polish community and a feckin huge amount of British citizens, a small but vibrant Indian community and very little of anything else. They did some kind of research in the Central Statistics office about how many people over here are entitled to vote in the upcoming referendum. Turns out that over 6% of our population are British citizens ( I'd well believe it by the amount of English accents picking up their kids at school ) and about the same amount of Polish. I don't mind it tbh, because the vast majority of our immigrants are working. The amount of political asylums seekers has dropped by 90% since our economic crash. Also, one HUGE benefit of out recession was that social welfare fraud was virtually wiped out basically cos we couldn't afford to do nothing. We used to have Eastern Europeans flying in on Ryanair every month to sign on and fly back the same day. Don't know what its like in UK but here, you only sign on every 4 weeks and your social is paid direct into your bank a/c. Thats all finished with now. The asylums seekers aren't allowed work which I find ridiculous as they are completely supported by the taxpayer and some of their cases take up to 10 years to come to a conclusion. There should be a 6 week turn around on those cases so as not to give them a chance to have kids here which makes deportation very tricky. I agree with Gypsy, the referendum has little to do with immigration  ( from EU countries.). I'll tell you what should be done. Any EU citizen should be free to live in any EU country but if they are claiming social, it should only be at the rates (if any) of their original country. If I had  vote over here on the same referendum, I'd vote to leave, not because of any immigration issues, but the fact that they completely and totally shafted us regarding the enforced bail out of the banks here ( which was something that the Spanish taxpayers didn't have to accept btw).
    This wave of immigrants crossing the med has been caused the Blair/Bush "old Boy's network" who went chasing shadows after 9/11 with no long term plan. If anyone is looking to blame someone for this, start there. The only way to tackle it is with the countries bordering the med but guess what, because the US/UK old boys network tacitly encouraged democracy/uprising in these Arab countries, there is now no effective government anywhere to deal with the situation.

    Thanks Bill and Marbs. i deliberately used the term "old boy's network" cos I'd pretty much guarantee if the American or British people had a say in the invasion of Iraq/afghanistan, they would have told their governments to stick it up their arse. George W was finished what Daddy started and Tony Blair didn't have the balls to say "no".
