Fraser Nelson is the typical self-satisfied successful Scotsman in London. You can tell from his accent that he went to a Scottish private school. He has never had to worry about money. Even so, I'm a little shocked by his deliberate ignorance of what many people think. No, Fraser, we are not enjoying the early stages of becoming a minority in our own country. No wonder people stay on benefits when it isn't worthwhile to work because wages for dead end jobs are low. In the 1960s Germany was a high skill high wage economy and we were a low skill low wage economy. Sixty years later we still are, thanks to the ConLabLibDem uniparty, which keeps importing people from the third world instead of investing in our own people.

Lets be honest here, what are the chances, in broad numbers that we have ended up with the very best the nation can find to lead us? You'll find the number is hundreds of thousands to one. So this isnt integration, its at best a terrible example of Positive action and at worst a clear example of positive discrimination.

Poor Fraser is woefully or wilfully blind. I share much of his educated background but I see the huge problems which have resulted from having an income level for migrants set so low it is depressing wages, demoralising workers at a time of low income versus high prices. Sooner or later, Fraser and others will have to look up and see beyond the confines of London and the leafy SE England counties. Farage’s difficulty is that there is no PR system in local elections and the media have closed out the immigration debate, wisely from their left wing perspective, as they know that, if the immigration realities are made clear to the UK population, then another Brexit 2016 moment will come, and humiliate the elites … again.

[@davidpaterson2309]

It’s certainly true that it was immigration - or rather FOM - that motivated many people to vote Leave, but I don’t think you could ever claim that Brexit was “about immigration” and certainly not non-EU legal immigration which was never anything to do with the EU. And to be fair, I don’t think the official Leave campaign ever claimed anything of the sort either, nor that it would reduce overall immigration - simply that it would end FOM for EU citizens and introduce a points system, both of which have happened. So you did get what you ACTUALLY voted for, just not what you HOPED you were voting for - no one deceived you.

Back to the video, Mr. Nelson is a very good journalist, so the gap in his knowledge regarding the level of anger amongst the general populace regarding how the government is handling immigration surprised me. I suppose, however, that is better than being aware of it and then not reporting on it, as is the case with journalists working for BBC, Sky, C4 etc.. As usual, a great deal of sense spoken by Mr. Farage. His public mood barometer, as usual, is far more accurate than those of the vast majority of those in parliament.
