A comment about the myth that immigration is economically so good for a country.

Why is it always like this then:
(this is UK data)

"In Great Britain, in 2004, 58.9% of people of working age from ethnic minorities were in
employment, compared to 74.6% of the working age population as a whole."

Taken from this report by the "COMMISSION FOR RACIAL EQUALITY": http://cre.gov.uk/downloads/factfile01_employment_and_ethnicity.pdf


We don't need immigrants! Not even as labour.

its called institutional discrimination, we all know it goes on, your figures are also from 2004, five years ago, so may be inacurate for 2009.


also that is for people of ethnic minorities, not immigrants, many are UK citizens, that just tells me that we need to make sure they get a good education and the ability to get jobs.
