I'm from the UK and for some reason people think immigration is a huge problem here but it is widely blown out of proportion by the media

An actual problem here is austerity, something that doesn't work well for any economic recovery and yet is pursued across Europe. It has resulted in increased poverty for those who were already poor. But if you wanted to look at the disastrous impacts of austerity, just look at Greece or maybe Spain. They are better examples than Britain. It's bad here but we got off lighter than those in the Eurozone except Germany.

Were you paying attention to greece and Spain before austerity?

 

To blame austerity is like blaming chemotherapy for making cancer patients sick.

You've got to be having a laugh if you think austerity is helping spain or greece in any way

Things in them countries won't great before but at least they didn't have 30% unemployment and people won't relying on the church or having to steal food or electricity to survive. Spain and Greece are like 3rd world countries now. Greece must of lost about a 1/4 of its economy to thin air by now and if austerity works, why is it taking so long to prove it? Asia is laughing at us. Austerity has certainly made things much worse. Being tied to the Euro certainly don't help either.
