#1 "Hundreds of thousands of immigrants are a drain on Britain and its economy, not a benefit"

Ya' think?

Particularly since your idea of an "immigrant" is someone you let into your country to make you feel good about yourself, but don't actually expect them to assimilate or contribute to society because you're so sure the little brown people just can't.

Idjits.

#2 Britain's fastest-growing migrant group, the Poles, score above-average for employment, but have the lowest hourly pay and make a below-average tax contribution.

Yes, provided they leave before the cut-off (six months or one year, I forget which) they are entitled to all of their taxes back. In this way they can accept lower wages while keeping more in pocket than a UK citizen would do for a higher rate but after taxes. If you put down cheese, you get mice.

Not that I have anything against the Poles. For the Orcs mentioned in this article: We are quite literally paying for these people to rape our daughters. We should be ashamed of ourselves. Time for a second Cromwell.

Not just the UK, I'd say.

#4 The scale isn't fair. Madonna and two guys playing ~~soccer~~ football isn't very representative.
