Did you know that overseas students contribute around 11.8 billion to the British economy? What if we added that immigrants have an 80 percent participation rate? Now, do you still want them gone? The idea that immigrants should “fit in” and are expected to adopt the British way of living is severely damaging to both newcomers and those born in the UK. From economic to moral and values, even the smallest subjects can lead to resentment and segregation from either side. Surely the time as come to end this primitive behavior. Quit trying to put milk in their tea and they might stop complaining about the weather.

    Articles such as this need to be more widely distributed in ensure everyone fully understands the importance of immigrants in the United States. It’s easy to agree with these myths when you see it on television, in the paper, or your colleagues at work and school what is harder is looking for the facts that immigrants have done more for America than natural born citizens.

    Enthusiasts of today 's mass immigration like to claim that we should not be concerned about it, because it is no worse than the Great Wave of immigration since the turn of the last century.

    Immigrants play an important part in America’s workforce and over all in America’s economy. But just as there are pros and cons to everything, immigrant workers have a negative effect also.

At the introduction of my speech I believe I started out fairly strong and gave a good run down of the coming speech.…
