Well, the terrible effects of "high immigration" you keep arguing have been repeatedly proven false. Besides, "high immigration" is subjective. It seems you lot think any immigration is "high". And statistically, EU immigration is not only smaller than non-EU immigration, but if it's such an issue, then the UK has always had tools to minimise it, but hasn't implemented them (such as other EU members have) and as a matter of record, both immigration AND EU membership have been historically quite positive for the UK.

Given those inescapable truths, and the fact that you continue to argue this terrible immigration justifies Brexit, the same tired, proven false arguments over and over, it certainly appears you're afraid of something to the extent you have to ignore the facts to justify it.

Yep, it's killed the investor market all right, but it hasn't stopped house prices from more than doubling over the last ten years. So if buy-to-lets are out of the equation, what has caused this doubling of price over the same ten year period?

Voters want the UK to take back control of its borders, its fishing waters, its law-making and to control immigration. You cant do that while remaining a member of the EU. The only false argument is to accuse those who want to take back control as fearing foreigners. However, as untrue and obnoxious that argument might be, I believe it helped galvanise voters to vote as they did.

It is not me who continues to blame migrants for anything that he dies not like., the latest discussion on house prices being just one of many false claims you make.
Without providing subsidised accommodation in our cities for those who are not as well off as you our public services, our infrastructure, service sector would grind to a halt.
Migrants who now make up a significant % be they, nurses,teachers, care workers, those in the transport sector, migrants EU, non EU you do not want in the UK...
This is a post brexit debate and immigration will continue at levels that you will not approve of., the UK population will continue to grow so just get used to it..

So what next for them when they realise that they were misled by the Brexit campaign.
Just seen an article "The UK will survive a no deal ".
I will survive the loss of both harem and legs but my life will be very different.
Brexit desperation to start using words like " survive ".

The subsidy for accommodation merely subsidises business to have cheaper workers in our cities, if the workers paid the market rate for accommodation, employers would have to raise wages or be unable to find staff.

I have never said I don't want existing migrants in the UK, but if I try and say this you then call me a Nazi for saying it. Agreeing with you about the rights of existing migrant residents in the UK = Nazi in your befuddled mind.

Post brexit immigration may well continue at levels I feel cause harm to the poor, young and low-paid in the UK.

The brexit debate us just a means of many, far too many revealing their true feelings regarding migration into the UK..

Why are you so pro Aus , because of its strict rules restricting immigration that you would like to see imposed on the UK.

We already have control of our borders, except for the NI-RoI border. Controlling borders is not the same as controlling immigration numbers.

Controlling our fishing waters is a great idea. It's a shame our MEPs on the fisheries committee bare ever turned up to support the UK fishing industry, but they're UKIP, so no surprise there. Fish migrate, and preventing foreign fishing vessels from UK waters also prevents UK vessels from fishing in the waters of the remaining eu member states. And much of our fishing fleet is foreign-owned.

The UK government can control some EU migration under EU law. No UK government has chosen to use the available EU laws to do so.

I think I may have to start ignoring your posts, your tendency to shout "racist" and "nazi" at any opinion, even one agreeing with yourself, has made it impossible to communicate sensibly with you.
