SIR - Too many people in our small country saysCarole Roberts, September 24, Worcester News, sending immigrants home might be a good idea.

Not being familiar with our population number but family size has been decreasing for about 100 years. We are now a nation of old people not enough young in work paying tax to support the government pensions, so Carole, might we need young immigrants.

Immigrants in UK to be sent home there is nine sleeping rough across the water from Hylton Road and many more like them.

Putting immigrants on the boat home is a separate item to Brits currently occupying other countries if they are not welcome the can be thrown out.

Foreign nationals have bought homes in Spain and France adding to their economy. Should you choose to live outside UK proof has to be provided you can support yourself.

My experience when I decamped to Ethiopia. Bank statements, council tax forms, telephone accounts shown to the British Embassy to prove I was debt free contrast this with thousands coming into UK.

Living here I have bought capita,l employed people to build a house, renovated another and opened a shop. My wife is Ethiopian.

Bring back Brits living in other countries says Theresa Challoner. She might be surprised to learn most Brits are very welcome to stay and spend their hard earned cash in those other countries.
