Shame
Can't believe that fear, greed, and a xenophobia, that has NO place in the 21st century, has triumphed. I'm sorry England, but you need to hang your collective heads in utter shame. Roll on the next Scottish referendum.

I think immigration may actually go up over the next couple of years as France makes less effort in Calais but more importantly as people from EU countries make a dash to get here before we leave (which will take a few years).
But in theory we can set our own rules- a points based system eventually- to weed out unskilled/low skilled applicants , unless of course we find that we still need to accept EU's free movement rules in order to be allowed to export to Europe

Er, as well as Turkey there are four other 'candidate' countries
Albania
Serbia
Montenegro
Macedonia
Their citizens will not now have the automatic right to live here when they eventually join. Those of us who voted 'leave' were looking at the long-term effects or remaining in the EU.
I am thankful that the right decision was made and look forward to Article 50 being triggered ASAP.

If you have border control you can stop immigration (people smuggling excepted). That needs no explanation as it's obvious and could not be stated more so.
In practice there would be exceptions, such as genuine asylum seekers (not that we get any as all countries around us are safe) and one needs to allow cooperation in teams with the best in the world in some areas.
And to our shame we will need labourer type employees until we manage to sort out our own citizens taking jobs rather than staying on welfare. But that requires ensuring decent employment offers and not pay/conditions that would only appeal to those from low pay/low cost countries. And a welfare system that identifies the work shy and ensures they are not better off living off of others.
It may also require encouragement for businesses and other employers to spread the need for labour throughout the UK, instead of expecting everyone to up sticks and find a hovel to live in, in London, or wherever.
So until the government finds the will to sort that out we will probably need immigrants on short term basis. And we will certainly need those already employed here to be willing to stay, which I'm sure most will.

Another big underestimate from our political expert. Some would say ' a victory for common sense!' :-) Rule Brittania. Thank you Wales. You didn't attempt to stab the UK in the back!!
Looks like my Scottish F.I.L ( voted stay and residing in Cradley Heath) is now an Alien. :-). Wonder how long it will take for the citizens of the rest of Europe to follow our lead and start demanding their own freedom. Goodbye Cameron and Good riddance Angela's Third Reich!!
