I worked for immigration for 7 years, email me at lol.

To be honest the main thing I learned there is I couldn't help anyone, but I might be able to give you a fuckedness level.

Okay well me being wrong in some limited situations doesn't change my overall point.
Why the gently caress do we even care about immigration? I mean seriously, the last thing we need is a stale culture, and we have so much resource, and its not a zero sum game anyway.

It's a cheap can-kicking way to make GDP growth look good while also keeping wages down and not actually fixing anything, or even causing problems when infrastructure doesn't keep up like with housing.

I think you'll find that immigration isn't the issue. It's the wrong kind of immigration that is the problem.

If you are going to take that approach then it was always a done deal. As if Labour or National would have let us drop out of it.

all treaties get signed before they're put through parliament, that is how countries with separate executives and legislatures work
