You do realise we get more migrants from non-EU countries, over which we already have complete control (if we chose to use it)?

As for “people sleeping in tents”, I’m not sure that’s really a big thing - unlike the rise in street sleepers- but that’s not an EU issue. Again that’s been a UK political choice to a) sell off social housing stock without replacing it and b) Austerity economics forcing Councils to abandon or cut back services c) the universal benefits switch chaos.

This is like the nonsense blaming of the EU for kipper exports or bendy bananas.

Maybe some of the working class don't want to be ruled by unelected bureaucrats from their ivory towers in Brussels .
What ‘ruling’ have they done? You’re living in a xenophobic fantasy land.

Name one negative way the EU have impacted on us.
Mass uncontrolled imagination, driving down wages terms and conditions.
People sleeping in tents because they have nowhere to live and idiots like you want to let more in.
1. Uncontrolled?

2. Driving down wages? It is thanks to the EU that workers have any rights.

3. Calling me an idiot? Come on. With your street cred shredded on every issue you have commented on, that is somewhat ironic.
