u.k. economy remain and diplomats to say that their citizens are deeply offended by that portrayal as scroungers and criminals in the u.k. press they point out that most of their citizens are hardworking and will contribute to british society something that economists had a happy to back up o.b. available evidence is the migration to britain has a net positive both in terms of cultural enrichment and economic investment we have to remember that one point six million britons british nationals are working. and they enjoy the benefits of that so if we start setting up you shouldn't draw benefits for migrants we can expect a quick cool cool despite the politicians talk. talk in the tabloid headlines fears of a flood of migrants have been dismissed as nonsense and according to remain in officials most of their countrymen would prefer to live in spain or italy anyway judging by

second no it's only. to them it seems as long as europe's finances continue to languish in the red more and more its people are seeking answers. the right key to all of that. and a harness is an expert in social trends he believes right wing policies are gaining support because they propose alternatives and it doesn't matter how well the alternatives are the financial crisis is really the key least in my these parties have gained support in recent years the crises and lead to distrust of politicians is it has led to distrust of immigration or immigrants and i think what they're offering is not a very concrete alternative in terms of policy in terms of economic policy support for these parties is really based on you know and dislike of the established political regime whatever that is and so people are looking for some alternative
10:18 am
