How aware are you of the current UK visa tier system? What kinds of people do you think are currently immigrating that would not be eligible under a points based system?

Generally they are poor and impoverished, yes. Or they have a deal with the EU and US. Or are tiny exceptions like Singapore.

This idea that the UK is inevitably doomed outside of the EU is such a canard - fact is, it cannot be known either way until it happens.

Of course it's not doomed. But your position on "too much immigrants" is xenophobic, regardless of how you see it.

You're literally ignoring the fact, that most congestion in London and S/E England is due to internal migration. You're blaming EU migrants for your discomfort, the ones that are most likely to work for a bit and go back to their countries.

EU immigration certainly doesn't help. Also please don't throw insults around without foundation, which I see that you've been able to do with impunity, which says something about this forum.
