Absolutely not what I said. I said, figures show, that when you look at immigration as a whole, immigrants to the UK put in slightly more than they take out. It's only a tiny amount but it's still in the black. I also said, if you go back a few pages, that while immigration is important it's by...

That's a large number. But figures currently show immigrants are putting more into the system than they are taking out. How many of those 182,000 are front line NHS staff for example? I get your point about where will they live, but stopping migration isn't dealing with the cause of the problem...

Not a problem if they work, and bring more to country than they take away. Which, as things stand, they do. The fact is many, many more have the right to come here but don't. Why would they pick us over Germany for example? They wouldn't and they don't.

A small part of the problem but not a massive part. Can you imagine how our hospitals would run without the tens of thousands of perfectly legal, highly educated immigrants that work in them? We've got more families in this country than ever before using food banks. That's not the immigrants...
