You better check out who is behind this study and who paid and sponsored it.
|

By:
ps one person already discredited for earlier Labour party studies etc etc

So how many million more do we need to pay off the national debt?
|
|
By:
The figures are simplistic and fail to give an accurate and full view but they have an agenda to push and these figures help that.

If we sent all our benefit claimants over there as a swap we would be leaving in Utopia

if even IF true it doesn't make up for
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/immigration/11209234/Immigration-from-outside-Europe-cost-120-billion.html or the fact that if given a choice the vast majority would have them out regardless |

By:
they have missed out the bit about this being a survey on skilled EU migrants, what are we gaining from the unskilled?
|
|
By:
Peston on the beeb just pointed out the flaw in the stats - the EU migrants are generally young and working, so obviously they aren't likely to have serious illnesses costing the NHS or claiming long term sickness benefit or pensions.

its an eu sponsored thing led by germans and italians just for starters

UK gains £20bn from European migrants, UCL economists reveal
Did these people bring this money over here from their own countries? Or is it the case this money was already in our economy and the UCL is up to its old tricks |

By:
funded by he europea research council
peemsj funded by te anglo german foundation norface fuded by fp7/european commission and tasked with spending tens of billions of euros in increasing migration/integration between eu countries 'scientists' entirely dependent on there funding - what do u think of that report now not that you are going to hear this on the new all very spooky and are they not clever in grabbing the headlines with journos on the box accepting it hook line and sinker |

ucl recieved 53 million euros from EU last year
|

By:
Is that an in depth study or just an assumption at £5.00 each?
|

By:
The internet is full of idiots
|

By:
Is this the same bloke that in 2003 estimated EU migration in the range of 10k-13k per year?
|
|
By:
do these idiots not realise they should have conducted a survey of the chit-chat pub bores for a more accurate reflection?
|
|
By:
There's not enough of us left.

By:
it is now fact as far as sky goes and the propaganda rolls forward - the journos have swallowed it whole without a critic in site - has no one any idea of what UCL is and who funds it !!??

It's an appalling survey that the BBC is happy to report as Gospel.
It says EU migrants pay far more in tax than they take out in benefits and services. One of the things they ignore is that for a job to go to an EU migrant, a UK citizen is sitting on the dole. The other assumption which I find hard to believe is that migrants are net contributors of income tax when so many are in minimum wage jobs. Makes no sense whatsoever. |

Immigrants who came to live in Britain from outside Europe cost the public purse nearly £120 billion over 17 years, a new report has shown.
|
|
By:
I'll also second the point about any research which only takes into account the good times and which doesn't account for their later years when they will be a massive net drain.
|

Shhhhhh...
In the Guardian article on this they a have a photo of migrants working in a polytunnel tending tomatoes.  They'll be on £7 an hour if they're lucky and having their money doubled by tax credits.. |

just think , even the jobless fks on here might have got a bit more money in handouts if not for that |
|
By:
think the plus £20 billion comes from one or two foreign bankers bonuses tax payments
|
|
By:
so does this mean we will be rolling in it when the 5 million Ukrainians land here?
|

By:
According to the survey, between 1995 and 2011 Britons created a net loss of £591BN?????????????????????????
If that's true it gives us some idea of how ludicrously big the public sector has become and that it's financially completely unsustainable. Re immigration , the survey is hopelessly flawed. No account is taken for falling wages caused by immigration. I come across a number of Europeans who are working here locally in the service sector. I would say none of those I meet earn £10 an hour and so CANNOT be net contributors of tax. |

Of course immigration is a huge benefit to an economy - they wouldn't come otherwise. But obviously all the closet racists wanting to blame all ills on foreigners don't want to hear this.

Yeah the economy of the sh&t hole they come from |

Respect to the Polish.

By:
I find it strange that i have been put into a category where i have contributed to a £591billion loss, i dont remember doing this at all.
|

By:

what, like France, Germany, Italy and Spain, you mean? |
|
By:
well the only one of those that isn't down the toilet is Germany , but was always part of the fourth reich master plan
|
|
By:
not exactly what most people would describe as "sh&t holes" though
|

By:
University college london received 53 million in grants from the eu last year,
Even if the migrants brought the plague,galloping hiv,ebola and were all claiming 660 notes a week in housing benefit ,i am quite sure the required figures could be manipulated. |

Anyone who uses spain as an example of eu success really needs to be examined for mental illness, a. country which has youth enemployment running at 50% is a beacon for the eu?
Shot yourself in the foot yer arse and yer brain if you can find it. No wonder they are culling badgers. |
