Re: Babies born in UK
It's the Daily Fail which hates all foreigners. It doesn't clarify just how many of these foreign born mothers have lived in the UK for years, perhaps even grown up there, and pay taxes. Of course there are some health tourists, but as usual this vile publication is twisting the story to pander to the prejudices of theie readers.
Typical scare-mongering Fail story, lacking facts and designed to foster yet more prejudice and hatred. No wonder some people find it hard to integrate in the UK.

I trust you call Labour Liebour and their ex leader Tony Bliar?
On topic though, the figures released are from the ONS and this is a worrying statistic.

Some of the women will have been born abroad and settled in the UK but a number will have visited just to use the NHS

OK
Foreign born mothers giving birth in London accounted for 56.7% of all births.
Nationally, the average is 25.5% of all births is to a foreign mother.
You don't find these figures (from the Daily Fail - chortle) slightly worrying?
We have a real crisis in the UK where housing is in short supply and young people have very little chance of buying their own home. And yet each year the net migration figure is well over 200,000. It is tragic really.

Re: Babies born in UK
And? Not being born in the UK doesn't mean they you couldn't have grown up there and paid taxes for 20 years. If yuo read my posts you will see that I have said that there are health tourists, but as usual, the story is not as black and white as that rag makes out.

So now house prices are the fault of immigrants too. Hilarious. You really are swallowing those half-baked stories hook, line and sinker.
Foreign born does not automatically mean health tourist.

I know the pressure services are under in the UK and importing 200,00+ foreigners every year will not help.

Re: Babies born in UK
Quite a few European countries would be in serious shit today were it not for the influx of immigrants over the last 40 years or so. There are numerous statistics showing that immigration as a whole is a profitable 'business'..(ie has a positive effect on GDP).
Of course the (mainly) white trash will always feel threatened by the foreigners, regardless of the fact that they would never do the jobs that some foreigners are more than happy to take on...
Picking up on those few who come illegitimately only to use the NHS for free, and then using that to tar a whole group of people is despicable. If the government were that concerned they could easily implement some kind of checks before you get free treatment. They haven't so clearly it isn't that big a problem, or perhaps they consider offering treatment to people who need it to be the humane thing to do....
If the UK was run like a company there would have been redundancies a long time ago. And by redundancies I mean get rid of any scroungers, benefit cheats and other scum-bags. Once that's done you could encourage people who want to contribute to society to immigrate...

Re: Babies born in UK
The UK is a mess, which is one of the reasons why I am here. I just hope when I get back it has not changed beyond all recognition.
On a side note to this, I work with a very nice chap (Pakistani) who flew to the US so his wife could have a baby there and get a US passport. I was ignorant of this practice until I came out here (and read stories in the Daily Fail (oh my aching sides))
