Correct Tredagar Boy
Jimbo:
There's a huge distinction between internal migration in the EU and refugees. You can't just lump them all together.
Migrants (temporary or otherwise) from within the EU have paid more tax than they've taken in benefits. The idea that they're spongers is a fiction cooked up by flag-waving fantasists spurred on the by the Mail and the Sun. And I seriously doubt that anybody is going to attempt to get from Syria to Corfu in an inflatable.
We are NOT part of the Schengen Area, and our borders are as secure as they ever were.
The EU is imperfect, flawed, and under the influence of wealthy multi-national corporations. But that seems to me to be a better option than the kamikaze dive into economic chaos that will result from a vote to leave.
