The UK is turning into a third world country

Yes, menacing men in sunglasses are going to come and drag you bodily from your homes while Eastern Europeans watch and laugh.
How exactly are you going to be "turfed out of your homes", and what on Earth would the government have to gain by making large sections of the population homeless?

Most of the imigrants that I have seen are far more Likely to set up their own business than 'take British jobs'.
On an earlier point of lack of jobs for graduates. Most of that comes down to the type of degree that you have gone for and your willingness to move for work. Doing a degree in accountancy is a better for enployment currently than history would be.
People need to learn to make use of the fact that there is free travel within the EU, my friend has a degree in engineering and is working in Austria for a firm that have paid him to come out there.

I'm an Eastern European in the UK and I ain't got no house ;__;

I've been stealing your jobs for years though... moahahahaaa!! !

Labor supports the poor thats labor spelt with out a U. (Don't get me started)

I don't think England has accepted they lost it's empire. And never will, you do realise (a bit before your time) England was known as the sick man of Europe, so it seems it's just going back to what it does best.

"cool britannia" isn't working out as the friend of the poor (the vacuum cleaner door to door sales person ) aka Blaire imagined, soon Jeremy Clarkson (Top Gear) will have no other insults for countries like France if things continue to pan out as you say it will I guess he'll just continue to torment them by accusing them of being communists I suppose.

Or redirect his insults to us

If you want to get Britain back to the good country that it used to be in the 80's, I would personally vote for UKIP or the BNP.

It all comes down to divide and conquer. Natives and immigrants are actually the same group - people living in an area bounded by an artifical border that only exists in abstraction. (OK maybe not Britain, as it is an island....)

I'm not a conspiracy theorist as I know there are simpler processes that cause the following - but how great is it for the haves to have the havenots fighting amongst themselves as to who is to blame?

There is no blame, immigration doesn't displace jobs except in the brief assimilation period (10-20 years usually). Politicians and civil servants necessarily make decisions based upon the statistical analysis of the demographics and economy, which nearly always (correctly) predict an overall benefit to the economy in the long run. Hence policy. Tie that in to other political considerations - such as the EU free-border ideal that we are signed up to (as a consequence of the prior British ideal of free trade that the empire was built upon that lingers on in the modern capitalist world), and the result is the policy we have.

Add in a dash of ineptitude, political in-fighting and a plethora of far-too-powerful pillocks like Rupert Mordoch with their own selfish agendas and you have the ingredients necessary to cause divisiveness amongst sub-groups that in reality would better-protect their interests by working together.

Basically if one feels that immigration in the UK is a problem rather than an asset, I believe one has been brainwashed by the Daily Mail or similar.
