Re: Oops, my mistake (none / 1)
the idea of being flooded by foreigners - i.e. anyone who isn't English British - makes them break out in a cold sweat.

I guess the fact that the UK wasn't flooded by (South) Asians after India's independence or that no Ozzies, Kiwis and South African under-30s come to the UK to work explains why the EU worker mobility rules are such a problem...

Indians aren't popular with the nationalists. Nor are Pakistanis.

Ozzies, etc, are still part of the Empire, and therefore British by default - obviously.
