A simple and practical plan to reduce immigration to Britain almost to zero within two years

There is no mystery about dramatically reducing immigration to this country. It simply entails reversing the trends which have caused it to rise to such high levels.

    Because Egypt and Jordan have allowed 'palestinian refugees' into their countries before - the thanks they got for their charity was the refugees trying to assassinate members of the Jordanian royal family and overthrow the government. What makes you think 'palestinian refugees' allowed into the UK will be any different, the only difference is they will have less work to do as the overthrow of the UK government has already begun.

    There is an easy way to solve the problem you so rightly raised. The solution is to apply the same method as Saudi Arabia employed to reduce their illegal immigrant problem. What they did was to create a new tax. It is called the "Dependants Tax" that made the head of the (non Saudi) household to be responsible for his family to the tune of 20 Riyals per person per month. This figure increased annually by 10 riyals per person per month to a maximum that is currently in place as I write. It is illegal for companies to employ foreigners and any foreign workers not registered result in very heavy fines. Foreign workers must also pay for their childrens education and health expenses are required to be met by insurance. Foreigners can mot own property, it must be rented and upon reaching retirement the foreifn workers are required to return to their own country as a matter of contract. This arrangement puts Saudi citizens first in their own country and the computer software that controls it all was built by the Brits. We should use our own product to put Anglo-Saxons first in their own country. Tax foreigners if they want to stay and work in the UK. Start at 20 pounds per person per month and increase by 10 pounds annually. You wouldn't need to worry about the little boats of it was implemented on every new arrival, illegal or otherwise.

    This could also reduce the scandal of care workers being recruited from abroad. They come not because they will cheerfully “do the jobs British people won’t do”, but as a way of getting into Britain. It also helps employers keep the wages low, as this incentive compensates for the low wage. Most of them “care” only for their passports, to the significant detriment of the people they are supposed to care for.

These girls had very little or no English, were virtually untrained and were "tied" to the employer for a few years before they could leave and work elsewhere.....to me, that is modern slavery. Their passports were also kept in the office of the care home!! Never heard of that one before! Those girls couldn't escape, even if they wanted to. Their accommodation was also supplied by their employer, the care home's owner! Owners: Indian. Imported workers: Indian. No way of releasing themselves from their situation. Paperwork sorted; visas, etc. This is the very thing that our Government is supposed to be stopping. I note that, whenever we hear of cases involving this type of "tied labour", workers from poor areas paying back the favour of giving them a job and a place to live in the UK, it is not indigenous, white employers operating the scheme.....evidently, old habits die hard!

    At the age 15, I left school. Young and a bit frightened I was told to find a job, so I visited businesses and just asked if they needed anyone, and read the job adverts in the paper. After about a month I got one, a van boy. At sixteen I got myself a trade and at 20, I was a journeyman , at 21 I was made a gang foreman. By the age of 23, I had been working for 7 years, I was no longer a boy I was a man. I believe that today’s generations are still acting as children till they have left college or university at 22, then they start work. This is one of the chief reasons why they find it strange that their grandparents got married so young at the age of 19 and 20. They don’t know how to grow up.

Both main parties are realising that Reform can be a force to be reckoned with, and will hopefully start to listen to the people. For anyone concerned about the stability of the country, note that the country is run by civil servants, so UK plc will continue as normal. What we need is both main parties seeing Reform biting at their heels, and starting to listen to the people and tackle mass migration and forced multiculturalism. Vote Reform UK.

    Same thing happened in NSW🇭🇲 just under 15 years ago. Instead of being able to leave school at 15 or 16, usually after obtaining their School Certificate (Year 10 or fourth form as it was known) students now have to complete Year 12. There's been the same push to get all these kids into uni - whether it's right for them or not. Useless courses & high fees, great🙄 There's been a big impact on apprenticeships of all kinds. A lot of school leavers aren't taking up apprenticeships & when they do, the dropout rate is startling. Its understandable though. A first year apprentice doesn't earn much, but being 15 & still living at home it's a (barely) livable wage. At 18 or 19, possibly renting, it's almost impossible. Not everyone wants, needs or should go on to higher education. Some of us actually enjoy getting dirty hands 😉 There's nothing menial about tradies wages either. They often end up, after finishing their apprenticeship, earning big money & no university debt!

    There’s insane amounts of new homes construction all over the county. Meanwhile the native birth rate has been in longterm decline. If young people feel the dream of home ownership is only getting further away it’s wholly due to decades of high immigration rates. Otherwise we would have needed to replace old and poor quality housing through construction, but wouldn’t have needed to increase the overall housing supply on the market. There would still have been lots of building of care homes to meet increasing demand however. Immigration of people who are allowed to send for economically inactive relatives (non English speaking ageing parents and grandparents who are a drag on the NHS) and have lots of children, who are an extra drag on the education system because they are taught no English at home. Thanks to letting immigrants send for economically inactive elders, even the stated intention of tackling our ageing population through increasing the base of taxpayers to pay for the needs of the elderly via immigration policy is somewhat undermined.

    I took a further ed course back in the 1990's, complete rubbish even had a lecturer say it was worthless - Then she had to back track. Ended up take a a Further BTec course at Uni, utter waste of time, drop was so high that only about 30% of students were left at the end of it. When Btec were scrapped I cheered.

    You’re so right but the trouble is there are not that many apprenticeships out there. There needs to be some real investment and less pushing on kids to get themselves into debt at the money grabbing g uni’s. Nursing etc should be training school based while they earn. My son really wants to be a paramedic but the apprenticeship scheme barely exists, they say they do but opportunities never come up. He’s been forced to go to uni and get himself into debt when he could be working, it’s purely a uni tax for young people. The placements 12hr shifts he’ll doing will be unpaid. No wonder these kids go off to Australia once they qualify, why should they show loyalty when they’ve not been looked after while training to get where they need to be

    I left school at 15 and started work immediately as a trainee telephone engineer. But, aged 20 l quit and went to a technical colleague for two years to take A levels. A few years later l qualified as a surveyor. Throughout my higher education l worked evenings, weekends, and holidays to support myself doing all sorts of unskilled jobs. Leaving school at 15 gave me the time to experience some life and decide what l wanted to do. At 15 l was clueless so extra years at school would probably have been wasted. My experience suggests Simon is talking a lot of sense. But, even if we did lower the leaving age the immigrants would still come and we wouldn't send them back. So, we would have higher immigrant unemployment instead.

    When I was 16 I went to pick fruit in the summer holidays. I loved it. You could take any surplus back home. You also met a lot of students looking for extra money etc. I remember speaking to a girl, who was a drama student etc. Anyway years later that same student became a Hollywood actress. She stared in a big blockbuster movie. Moral of the story is it’s ok to start work when your young. You learn about life, and u gain experience and make contacts. The problem we had being in the Eu, was you got migrants doing jobs young people would do as a first job. I live in London, I rarely see English workers. It’s mostly foreign.

    This problem of hiding the real rate of unemployment through the extension of upper secondary and tertiary education has been going on in Australia for over half a century. The associated boondoggle of employing more teachers and importing foreign students and workers has gone on for so long that the academic standards have crashed. Good luck on finding useful employment for most teachers especially at tertiary levels. Perhaps there is still a demand for painting spots on rocking horses. Within my lifetime most of the entrants into the professions from medicos and lawyers, nurses and pharmacists, accountants and clergy, teachers and auditors , and others besides were trained by apprenticeships. Only the very top Barristers etc were University graduates.

    You are right. I left school at 15, 62 years ago. Half my year were not academic at all and were desperate to leave and start earning. Everyone should be given the choice to leave at 15 provided they have employment or training on leaving. All children should be entitled to 15 years free schooling. to be taken when ever. I have two degree level qualifications despite leaving at 15. Students would only have to pay for the final year of their degree (or take an intensive 2yr course). It is madness to saddle the young with massive debts just when they want to buy a home and raise a family. As for the elderly. In those days most were looked after by their family. It is legislation that encourages the break up of marriage that has caused the problem. Mostly it should not be the state's problem. The progeny of the elderly should have the choice pay for the care (through taxation if necessary) or undertake it themselves.

    Three girls in my class at secondary school became student nurses at 16. This was quite a common career choice. Straight to the local hospital on a modest wage, but food and lodging in the nurses home was thrown in. They all seemed very happy and the ones I kept in touch with did very well. Competent and professional by the age of 21, unlike today when they are just starting training.

    Stopping 100% immigration is simply not enough, the damage has been done a looong time ago. Making it mandatory for western kids to stay in schools until 18 was a huge mistake, by doing so it gave the powers at be to have an excuse to bring in mass labour from abroad (and none of them looked like us). I knew of countless men that went to work at 14 to help their family, and then went on to have 2 or even 3 jobs to support their own family. In the end they were by no means dumber than what we see today. Young adults used to have excellent work ethics until these new “liberal” governments inundated the west. This has been planned a very long time ago circa 1960’s and we had been warned by some but collectively chose to ignore even vilify them, with the help of Hollywood and tv shows (we all know what the villain looks like, riiight!). When did we actually lose our countries that our ancestors built (from scratch) and defended for their descendants NOT for the descendants of whom/what they fought against.

    Great points! Many people used to travel to farms in the harvest season to take their 'holidays' as paid workers in places like the hop farms around where I live now. I have always thought that the school age is manipulated for the figures and nothing else. Go back to the old way of doing it, then those who go onto the unis can be funded for free and so we end up with vocational medical staff and scientists instead of the naive ,self righteous rubbish being churned out now.

    The big problem with this proposal is that it assumes that the youngsters would be prepared to accept jobs which didin't pay them the sort of money they "expect" to earn. The "equality" mindset which modern youths are brought up with makes them think that they are ENTITLED to a high payinig job and ENTITLED to have their ideas to be considered as worthy SIMPLY because they are "equal" to those already in the workplaces they have just entered. 20 years experience counts for nothing in their eyes. There has of course always been a certian amount of this among the youth but jewels like Tic-Tok and Facebook along with reams of Woke laws have made things much worse. If you think it's bad now, wait until six months into a Labour government!!!
