If the roles were reversed and we were forced to flee we wouldn’t expect to be treated the way many immigrants are here

 @9G4TNX2disagreed…7mos7MO

They’re fleeing their own country for safety, the least we can do is have a heart and give them a chance to live. They benefit the country, they’re not taking jobs. We should all remember that nobody in this country actually came from this country - Vikings, Anglo-Saxons etc. We’re all descendants from Europe - nobody is just British

 @9G5XZHNdisagreed…7mos7MO

Immigration allows for a greater import of both low and high skilled labour, and helps diversify the country and educate the native British population on other cultures

 @9FXXTSKdisagreed…8mos8MO

Immigrants are just people who want better for themselves and their family, where they are born should not determine whether they are allowed a safe or happy life. There is more than enough money and housing to go around, if only the very rich were a little less selfish.

 @9G7LCVFdisagreed…7mos7MO

Aren't we all immigrants? Maybe from prior generations, but why should only the newer immigrants be penalized?

 @9G2FT3Ldisagreed…7mos7MO

The more people that come into the country the more likely the country makes more money which is also good for the people that come in due to entering a somewhat safe country and the opportunities that it gives them.

 @9H33JHPLiberal Democratdisagreed…6mos6MO

They are coming here for safety and deserve it. They’re people and they deserve respect and a chance.

 @9GVDR4Gdisagreed…6mos6MO

We do not as the majority of immigrants work hard when they arrive, and the UK Population is not exponentially growing

 @9G8RCFDdisagreed…7mos7MO

It’s the same Immigrants that run this country, the same immigrants the kohi noor was stolen from. We dont

 @9FTS4RCdisagreed…8mos8MO

Immigrants enrich our culture and make up the vast majority of our national services such as the NHS. Without them we wouldn't gave got through the pandemic.

 @9MLNRP6disagreed…1 day1D

We need immigrants to balance an aging population. Most immigrants want to contribute to this country and should be given the opportunities to do so.

 @9MBZPYJConservativedisagreed…2wks2W

As an immigrant, the path to legal status is long and expensive. If someone were to improve the UK why not have them work here

 @9M5CPM3disagreed…3wks3W

Have a look at how many bone idle people there are in the uk what’s the issue with giving people jobs who want to want especially since figures show immigrants partake in unappealing jobs that uk born people don’t want to do. People who say they’re too many immigrants are either politicians who want a scapegoat or racist

 @9M49SHY disagreed…3wks3W

Immigrants are the lifeblood of our country. We wouldn't be who we are with no multiculturalism, and immigrants are an important part of our society.

 @9M3ZJNKdisagreed…3wks3W

There are far too many jobs that need filling and immigrants provide that. They also boost the economy!

 @9LYWXCXdisagreed…3wks3W

They need help in other to live a bette life. There is a reason that they left their country, so there should be some help so that they can live in another country without feeling unwelcome. There is no point in sending them back to their country as they have left it for a reason and not to come back just after arriving in their desired country.

 @9LXWPVRdisagreed…3wks3W

No we don’t we could have more people doing jobs like supermarket workers and we should welcome and legal immigrants

 @9LWVYWBdisagreed…3wks3W

When we have the financial and geographical resources to be able to support people, it would be inhumane no to

 @9LWM7F9disagreed…3wks3W

Immigrants are still people, if there are to many people in our country then it’s not them but the population as a wholes problem.

 @9LWDG45disagreed…3wks3W

We have vacancies in the health service that need filling and immigrants are the best way of filling those vacancies

 @9LVLBDQdisagreed…4wks4W

Currently immigrants support the UK by working low wage jobs that most disregard, supporting the rest of society

 @9LVFSDXdisagreed…4wks4W

We do not we need to process them quicker and have schemes to send back to safe countries that they have left and make safe routes for those who do not have a safe country of origin. I'm

 @9LVD75Gdisagreed…4wks4W

I think that we should welcome more immigrants in the uk and that we should help these people instead of sending them to Rwanda.

 @9LVCZDTdisagreed…4wks4W

No we don’t if the Uk claims that they are taking scarce resources such as jobs and houses then the uk should make employment opportunities for immigrants more inclusive e.g customer service jobs that are not required to spoken in english

 @9LVBB6Kdisagreed…4wks4W

We need immigrants to do the jobs British people don’t want/can’t do. This country was built with the help of immigrants and they underpin our NHS, schools, public services and economy.

 @9LTZYTLdisagreed…4wks4W

i strongly disagree with this statement, Immigration allows for a greater import of both low and high skilled labour, and helps diversify the country and educate the native British population on other cultures

 @9LTYRGNLabourdisagreed…4wks4W

Immigration is a net positive to the economy and helps solve the issue of our increasingly older population.

 @9LTBSJYdisagreed…4wks4W

The birth rate in the United Kingdom is too low and without immigration we will not have enough young people to pay taxes and therefore fund our NHS and pensions in the future.

 @9LSPZBZdisagreed…4wks4W

If the roles were reversed and we were forced to flee we wouldn’t expect to be treated the way many immigrants are here

 @9LSP6YMLiberal Democratdisagreed…4wks4W

We are all human beings and everyone should be treated with kindness we should be open to everyone no matter their background.

 @9LSM7ZLdisagreed…4wks4W

Immigrants make up masses of members of the NHS - without them the NHS would struggle more than it already does

 @9LRKBZQdisagreed…4wks4W

The immigrants are working and paying taxes with no recourse to public funding yet funding those that are living off Government/public funding. The Immigrants have to pay thousands in International Health surcharge and still pay national Insurance as well

 @9LQY8N5disagreed…4wks4W

stop being nasty **** and accept that people move from different countries, they are not stealing your jobs or homes or whatever they are literally just people trying to do better in their life and live happier

 @9LQ6YPGdisagreed…4wks4W

They are people who want the best for them and there family and they decide to risk there life for there family because they are desperate. They come here and they benefit us they take jobs that need to be filled and if you think that there 'stealing jobs' there aren't enough workers and they benefit the economy. People decide that they are doing bad things because they are selfish and racists and decide that people should have to go through trauma because they might think it inconvenience them. These people have seen everything and they are trying to save them and there family, rather than being selfish and petty like politicians who try to convince you they are bad

 @9LPGXYDdisagreed…4wks4W

Most immigrants need safety more than citizens of the UK, they should be welcomed. There is plenty of empty housing in the UK.

 @9LNDBPCdisagreed…1mo1MO

No lots of the UK's economy especially in agriculture is dependent on migrant and temporary works coming from both Europe and other areas of the world

 @9LNBC9KLabourdisagreed…1mo1MO

We don’t. Look at how many vacancies we have. And can’t fill. And how much richer we are societally, culturally & morally when we welcome immigrants.

 @9LDC8YPdisagreed…1mo1MO

Immigrants contribute in both underprivileged and working class areas and the upper echelons of society towards the betterment of our economy, often times doing the work British citizens would choose not to do. There is a severe lack of minorities and women who a born in the UK in stem fields for example, and immigrants fill those gaps and keep our economy afloat.

 @9L8RPRYdisagreed…2mos2MO

imigrants should have a place in this country as its safe and not many people have the luxury of being in a safe space. its not their fault their country has become unsafe.

 @9L6NRTNLabourdisagreed…2mos2MO

This country was built on immigrants, without immigration this country would collapse as there wouldn't be anybody willing to fill in the gaps left by natives here. Let us take the opportunity to show appreciation to the significance of immigration and how it has helped our country to remain afloat. You may say that we have too many immigrants so just think to yourself why are they coming to our country in the first place; is it to seek a better quality of life? Is it to escape the chaos in their native land? Ultimately, countries just watching crises in other nations unfold will have…  Read more

 @9L4VTC5disagreed…2mos2MO

Immigration is good for economy because it fills jobs and allows for new knowledge and information, certain immigrants will have skills which are needed. However, is they come to the country they must want to work or study

 @9L4PJXYdisagreed…2mos2MO

We shouldn't have any immigration laws, we should have no borders. Borders are a made up concept. We should all be allowed to travel freely around the world

 @9JNS3SRWomen's Equalitydisagreed…4mos4MO

Immigrants provide cultural diversity to the UK giving them a wealth of diferent clothing, food and ideas for businesses

 @9J7YXYSdisagreed…4mos4MO

No, your stupid. Diversity is important in the world and although we have an increased number of immigrants they are simply coming to seek sanctuary and/or a better life. Imagine if we had to do this, and we had to immigrate somewhere, I'd be angry too if I was denied simply because I wanted a better life for myself.

 @9H4S3BGdisagreed…6mos6MO

We don't have enough workers to run this country, and immigration is the easiest and cheapest way of filling that need

 @9H4M73Fdisagreed…6mos6MO

They provide doctors, skilled workers and diversity, in exchange for refuge, it’s human rights and only good

 @9H38T5Zdisagreed…6mos6MO

Each person who tries to get to the UK is in fact finding us a safehaven and will provide economic benefits.

 @9H2RBHTdisagreed…6mos6MO

We don’t as there are ample resources for everyone, if spent rationally. Immigration brings younger, skilled, hard working people that only strengthen existing communities and economies. Also given that the UK has caused failed states and domestic/regional wars in multiple countries abroad it owes its dues to refugees seeking safe haven.

 @9H2PQK7Labourdisagreed…6mos6MO

They are not integrated correctly within our country, we should do a better job of integrating these immigrants within our country

 @9GZSJC3disagreed…6mos6MO

The world needs empathy and compassion not dehumanisation. People do not leave their homes lightly and those that do are showing such brave and determined nature we would be lucky to have them.
