Don’t say you’re English
From the Queen’s Royal Lancer’s Website:
Goodbye to my England, So long my old friend
Your days are numbered, being brought to an end
To be Scottish, Irish or Welsh that’s fine
But don’t say you’re English, that’s way out of line. (read more…)

It has been interesting to see the news lately explaining the cost of Immigration. The BBC covered in its news Wednesday 30th January, the increased cost of migrant maternity per year and that was quoted as £390million. Kent’s chief constable Mike Fuller says migrant crime has cost the Police Force in Kent £34 million over the last three years. Then, not quoted in the news, is the cost it is having in Education and there is the cost of new homes being built everywhere in the UK.
Most people in the UK now recognise that Immigration does cost. Then why is it that so many voters still vote Tory, Labour and Lib Dem? None of these parties foretold this. UK Independence Party is the only party that would have addressed these problems. There is an old proverb that prevention is better than cure. Well UKIP was the prevention and UKIP is the only offer of a cure.
So how are we going to pay for the cost of immigration? Well, it is the rich that wanted the cheaper Labour so let the rich pay higher taxes. And while on taxation and according to the news yesterday, apparently the labour government has miss calculated the expected revenue from tax by £8 billion. So if £8 billion is needed then taxing the rich is the only fair solution that I can see. Labour cannot afford to increase the base rates, as there has already been shrinkage of available income. If anything the base rate should come down to allow the majority of working people to get by. Minimum wage needs to go up immediately too to ease the pressure on those on low income. I would also raise the threshold for when one has to start paying tax, everyone benefits and any lose of tax revenue here could be compensated at the higher tax increase say for example people earning more than £120k pay more.
