Our young immigrants have a lot to offer. They are motivated and hard-working, and in many cases have already contributed significantly to our society - by excelling in school, by volunteering in their communities, or by serving in the military.

Immigrants have faced huge obstacles to achieving the American Dream, yet have persevered to overcome them.

Highly skilled immigrants are critical to innovation and are important contributors to economic growth in the United States.

Immigrants have historically been an entrepreneurial bunch.

Immigrants do more than help us win our wars, or set up cleaning shops or ethnic restaurants.

There is an insuperable problem about introducing immigrants to British values. There are no British values. Nor are there any Serbian or Peruvian values. No nation has a monopoly on fairness and decency, justice and humanity.

Uncontrolled, mass immigration displaces British workers, forces people onto benefits, and suppresses wages for the low-paid.

Immigrants create an engine of economic prosperity.

Most previous immigrants came to the United States to become Americans, with no intention of returning home. They relinquished their ties with their homeland. English was their key to prosperity, and they worked hard to master it.

We are indeed a nation of immigrants. People who choose to come to America have always been one of our greatest sources of national vitality. They keep our economy strong and our communities dynamic. They are some of our greatest patriots.
