Crayfish issue not as bad as Canada.

Yes. Absolutely. What you said.

There is no debate here when people argue from false premises

"Lump of labour" fallacy

Thursday, 29 April 2010 09:16

Looking at some of the other comments, PLEASE: there are not "X" amount of jobs which can somehow be distributed to British workers and foreign workers. That is the most STUPID thing people tend to believe! Has it never occurred to you that, the more people contribute to an economy, the more jobs there will be? I.e.: If you want more British jobs for British workers, INCREASE immigration, so the jobs can be created. There is a unanimous consensus among economists that immigration boosts the economy, especially the export sector! But try explaining that to the Duffy's of this worls: it is impossible, as they are not used to using their brains.

This is a comment on "'You can't talk about immigration'"
