Oddly enough that is true even of other EU nationals. I have a good Italian friend, an architect living in richmond, who is originally from Sicily. He said that this country is far far better than Italy or anywhere else in europe and if after Brexit he was told to leave they would have to remove him kicking and screaming.

Funnily, I have a close friend who I've known since we were 4. He's lived in Italy since his mid 20s. He reckons Italy is far, far better than anywhere else in Europe, UK included and would never, ever want to leave.

Nah, it doesn't. Why don't you look into this subject a little deeper in order to find out why some (Mostly Iranians and Afghans) people want to end up in the UK as opposed to other countries. Take a look at the 'success rate of those nationalities on seeking asylum when they reach the processing centre in Dover. You do know that we are legally obliged?

That under the Geneva Convention, as a country we are legally obliged to take Asylum seekers-That's my point.
