CAN I point out to Frank Avenell’s letter ‘Brainwashing bid’ (SA, May 22) that the reason this country finds itself in its current economical mess has nothing to do with the previous government’s uncontrolled immigration policy that he says has allowed our country (what is our country, Mr Avenell?) to be infiltrated by criminal elements, in addition to the overwhelming of public services.
No, Mr Avenell, blame the white capitalist bankers and traders in the City for the current economical problems that currently face the UK. So don’t become another xenophobe and blame the immigrants (legal or illegal) for the ills of this country.
PS I am a white 48-year-old British male!
