Scotland and immigration

Sir, - SNP politicians say Scotland needs more immigrants but how can it stop them moving south?

Does Scotland need those on the minimum wage since they will never pay more in taxes than they get in welfare benefits?

The claim that immigration is vital for economic recovery is true only if these are highly-paid skilled people who will contribute to taxation.

There is an acute shortage of affordable housing in Scotland with over 150,000 applications on housing waiting lists. Will this government insist immigrants be able to finance their own housing needs?

Will this government ensure that immigrants are able to converse in English and pass strict health checks? Clark Cross. 138 Springfield Road, Linlithgow.
