UK, Ireland / Polish Migration to the UK - A moderate speaks! [41]
I live just along the coast to you in Brighton.
It is a similar story here in that there are a lot of Eastern Europeans here (not too sure where from as I'm not all that good with accents, but Poland, Hungary and Lithuania would make sense).
There are a lot of foreigners here in general.
On the one hand it's nice to mix things up a bit, but on the other hand you can have too much of a good thing.
We simply do not have enough room for so many people.
When I go shopping, say for example in the local Tesco, I often feel I am the only one speaking English.
That's not to say I hear Polish spoken all over the place, it's pretty much every language under the sun.
I also feel like a guest at times.
You may agree with him (and I do as well), but what is he really doing to follow through on his election promises ?
More to the point, what can he do ?
Anything he wanted to introduce only includes immigration from outside the EU anyway.

I feel like a guest in my own town and it's not uncommon to not hear an English voice on my street all day.

I can't believe I find myself agreeing with David Cameron on capping immigration and the failure of multiculturalism!
