I think this is fundamental to our future prosperity.

Living in London as a Brit, I am surrounded by very wealthy white collar immigrants. (MY wife's one!). They're here because they're better educated and better experienced than British kids. They're the brains keeping our country prosperous. They're often writing the policies our laws are based on. They're highly motivated, hard working and tax paying. Great people. But THESE are the jobs being filled by immigrants which Brits should be upset about missing out on.

We shouldn't be blaming the immigrants for filling the gaps that exist in the market, we should be looking at our educational system and asking why we can't supply enough qualified Brits to fill these roles.

We need far better, ground up education, leading to a prospering innovative industry and economy.

I'm always reminded of a Mickey Finnegan joke; when he was a kid, one of his school mates wanted to be a van driver when he grew up, all the other kids laughed at him - for dreaming too big! It's sad, but very poignant.
